    Yes, they do. Both parties do it all the time, but it's not usually while that person is providing testimony.

    "One does not simply walk into Mordor. Its Black Gates are guarded by more than just Orcs. There is evil there that does not sleep, and the Great Eye is ever watchful. It is a barren wasteland, riddled with fire and ash and dust, the very air you breathe is a poisonous fume." Boromir

      Cite one other example during testimony. Which is the core point here.

      Oh, and if she were a man her salary would be 7 figures. Not 6.

        Because that doesn't fit the narrative they're trying to spin. If they were trying to defund some other NP NGO, if they had the CEO of that organization testifying, you can be **** sure they would be asking about their "outrageous" salaries.

        You're right that they are doing this because there's this "war on women" (though I really hate this phrasing), but this salary thing has nothing to do with her being a woman.

                  The attack on PP is obviously political posturing to get the GOP base in a lather. It has nothing to do with anything real. The PP rep just made the GOP members of the hearing look like fools, but it will be spun by the Echo Chamber as some sort of damaging indictment. That's life in the world of manufactured "scandals." Next week: more Benghazi.

                  It's a good thing the people in this country doesn't face any actual problems and can afford to have one half of the two-party system doing nothing but masturbating their donors and blocking all legislation of substance.

                    Liz is positioning herself for a conscription into the VP slot. I hope she keeps it up. Nobody else is.

                          I think this might be conservative wishful thinking. There is no way is Warren going to fade into the obscurity and irrelevance of the vice presidency -- she's going to be a strong voice in the Senate for years to come. She's Ted Kennedy with better brains, better morals, and better driving.

                            THere is no way the Democratic braintrust would allow Warren to move into a figurehead position and become VP. She's far too valuable for that.

                            The Senate is where she's needed and where she's going to do the most damage to eeeeevyl corporations and whatnot. Even as president you're basically spayed/neutered.

                              They did it to Teddy. Wall Street wants her out of the way.

                              *I* want her in the Senate. If she switches to I instead of D, she'd probably run unapposed and win with 90% of the vote.

                                Have her chair Commerce, Science and Transportation or Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs. Imagine the good work she could do -- the Cayman Criminals would probably try to murder her.
