If this is the law of the land...why in a republic (little r) and as republicans, do we allow mere POLITICIANS to the right to use a "title of office" for the rest of their lives as if it were de facto a patent of nobility. Because, as republicans, this should NOT be the case...just saying...

Elizabeth Warren Admits Not Licensed to Practice Law in MA

Elizabeth Warren has admitted that she's not licensed to practice law in Massachusetts.  After Legal Insurrection blog began recently to point out that Ms. Warren wasn't eligible to practice law in MA, she finally fessed up on a Boston radio show that she's not legally able to practice law in that state, yet has done so since she was hired as a law professor at Harvard Law School.

According to reports from listeners, she claimed that she does not maintain a law practice. She also "said that she gave up her New Jersey license because she could not keep up with the Continuing Education requirements," according to one listener who commented on Breitbart's Monday story, "Does Elizabeth Warren Have a Law License Problem?".
 
Yesterday, LI pointed out at least one case in which Ms. Warren had passed herself off as a licensed attorney.  That's enough for one of her most vocal supporters to throw in the towel.  First here:

UPDATE 4 9/27: Professor Jacobson has uncovered new facts that I view as a gamechanger. Although I stand by my above analysis as applied to the facts known at the time, Professor Jacobson’s discovery this morning answers my objections to his arguments.
and here,
Professor Jacobson:

I couldn’t figure out how to leave this as a comment at your site, but I wanted to let you know ASAP that I concede that your discovery this morning answers all of my arguments and is a gamechanger. Your diligence in investigating this matter is commendable.

Regards,
Mark Thompson
This woman is clearly a liar...moreover this may be the reason she decided  to terminate her NJ license.

The reason Warren resigned her NJ license should be clear: since the state has no “inactive” status, anyone who failed to pay their bar dues was listed as “ineligible” unless they resigned (which means they would have to re-qualify from scratch to practice there in the future). Being listed as “ineligible” is what she wished to avoid, the fact that resigning made the history of her activity unavailable was just unforeseen gravy.

Both these major ethical lapses serve to clarify the leftist mindset. They really do believe themselves morally superior to the rest of us due solely to their ideology, and therefore assume the rules which apply to us are no more than passive guidance to them.
Would you want her to represent your state?

Boston Globe: Declared Coakley Victor At 11 AM, Coakley Conceded at 9 PM



The Globe Online Boston.com has already posted the results of todays voting. Above is the map to show how each county is going to vote (or as the Globe would wish they did)...even though polls don't close until 8 pm this evening...
The boston.com map called the race for Coakley 50 percent to state Sen. Scott Brown’s 49 percent. Independent Joseph L. Kennedy, no relation to the Kennedy clan, comes in last with a mere 1 percent.
There you have it people, no reason to go out and vote, The Globe has already chosen the winner.

UPDATE: They got it wrong, Coakley has conceded! Scott Brown is now the Republican Senator from Massachusetts! Here's the REAL election map:

Democratic Hypocrisy

From the Boston Herald...When Mitt Romney (R Mass) was governor of Massachusetts, the Democratic party (then as now) dominated the legislature. When it looked like John Kerry would win the Presidency in 2004, the legislature changed the law wherein the Governor would appoint a temporary Senator, to fill the seat until the expiration of that term.

Fearing that Romney would appoint a Republican, the legislature mandated that an election would be held in 120 to 150 days for the open seat. NOW, with the death of Edward Kennedy, his desire was that the legislature once again, hypocritically change the law back to the previous succession. Talk about hypocrisy in action.

What's good for the goose is good for the gander. You can't change, and change again merely because it suits your needs of the moment. This is wrong and Massachusetts should sleep in the bed they've made. This is a naked power play by the national Democraticc party who doesn't like how things are going on their failing health care siezure impending in Congress, and who need that 60th vote in order to give genuine legitimacy to a cause that the majority of the country now think is wrong.
