Last night, Republican Sen. Scott Brown and Democratic challenger Elizabeth Warren shed the discussion on Warren's heritage from their talking points. Brown touted his voting record, but lost his footing when asked about women's rights and issues.
Sen. Brown is pro-choice; he's stood against violence against women. There's been no doubt, as Warren put it, "that Senator Brown is a good husband and a good father to his daughters."
But she reminded the audience that this election is about everyone's daughter – underscoring why Brown's votes against equal pay for women and insurance coverage for birth control and preventative services is unacceptable.
Check out Warren's take (in the embedded video) on why women’s rights can't afford to be picked apart.

Brown votes no on womens rights. No equal pay for equal work for his Daughters. Health care for women, No. No, No, No.
More lies form the special ed show bloggers.
Post one hospital that dose not treat women the same as a man.
We are not talking about hospitals. My dollars are the same as your dollars at the HOSPITAL. We are talking about govt POLICY. Guys get Viagra so they can get an erection, and women can't get birth control to protect them from getting pregnant from Mr. Viagra?? Really??
ThankfulMom - Elizabeth Warren worked as a lawyer for Dow Chemical Company. At the time Dow was facing thousands of lawsuits over complaints about a range of medical problems stemming from their business of manufacturing silicone breast implants. By declaring Dow Corning bankrupt the parent company halted all new lawsuits and placed the final say on settlement of existing litigation against Dow Corning in the hands of the bankruptcy court. It is certainly arguable that many of these claims were questionable. It is also compelling if one of the architects of the way to legally avoid paying these claims now champions her status both as a consumer advocate and a leading defender in the so-called war against women.

Oh here we go again sully and his American stinker site where no lie is to fly. Here is the problem with you trying to use American stinker as a news source they are not a news source they are another creep rag.

whomi - your link proved my post right... LMAO!
In a conference call with reporters Wednesday, Angela Davis, chairwoman of the Women for Brown committee, said Warren ‘‘was advising Dow about how to limit its liability.’’
Pressed for evidence, Brown campaign manager Jim Barnett pointed to a 2002 document Warren filed in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in which she says, ‘‘I served in an advisory capacity to Dow Chemical, the parent company of Dow Corning, in the early days of the Dow Corning bankruptcy.’’
whomi - you also use a liberal site with Bill Moyers as a source against AT? Hypocritical of you don't you think?
Only in your mind sully but then reading skills are not your strong point. Dow filed bankruptcy to try to get out of paying for damages their product caused Warren advised them to set up a trust fund for those women damaged by Dows products. Really sully you clearly have little understanding of the legal system in the US. Corporations often use bankruptcy to get out of paying damages their products cause.
whomi - that trust fund limited the amount of money Dow had to pay out. You don't have an understanding for much of anything, which is why you only post here and are afraid to go to a conservative website and post your idiotic points of view!
Dow didn't want to pay anything sully Warren advised them to set up a trust fund. What don't you get sully Dow went to Warren to get out of paying a dime Warren advised them to set up the trust found. BTW sully legal advise is non binding meaning Dow could have decided to do it their way. Like I said sully you know very little about the legal system. Just because a company hires a legal adviser they are not bound by law to take that persons advise so apparently Warren told Dow something that made them decide to set up the trust fund instead of cutting and running leaving victims with nothing.
No sully why would I go to a conservative site when they are just a group of babbling buffoons who live in delusion land. See sully I don't try to convince morons that they are wrong because talking to republicans amounts to talking to a dog about eating cat poop out of a liter box, like dogs, republicans are incapable of complex thought. As you and your friends prove daily.
I can only say that Scott Brown is a Funky dude, this GOP "Blown" nosier TeaReTard takes the back seat to Elizabeth Warren intelligence, Brown looks like a Loser !!!!!
PA- -you think Warren is an intellegent woman??? I can see why your another clueless lib...lol
Well sully you think robme is an honest businessman. Oh and Brown why he hasn't been called the bankers best friend in congress for no good reason sully. Leave it to you sully supporting a pathological liar and a racist bigot.You wouldn't know what intelligence is sully you believe if you click your heels and repeat I believe in Ronnie you will be in the top 1%.
Warren for president in 2016!
only a fricken moron would make that statement....Warren is a liar.....and let me say she offers nothing to the fathers in this state its like they dont mean diddly. She is wrong for America and Assachusetts
You Go Elizabeth Warren , at least You are on the Proper Track for America !
Go Warren!! And where exactly is ASSACHUSETTS?? Might it be up your butthole?
sf - Apparently that is where you have placed your tiny little head !
Brown has his head stuck in "A" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Warren needs to read the constitution.
You need to read the Constitution. It guarantees rights for ALL, not just the ones you agree with. You poor, misguided thing. Stress THING.
hmmm
Rights for all except Native people, who are just tokens for her to use to build up her public career, her notoriety, her ego, and all the luscious advantages that will come to her by being a Senator.
And what has Princess Warren ever given back to Native America??
[sound of crickets chirping]
Really why because of your fake outrage over a race of people you could care less about all because Warren retold a family story just like many other US families who have rumors of non white blood lines. Some can be proven some can not those that can be proven are granted Native American benefits those who can not get nothing. Really how many times are you going to whine about Warrens family stories.
Let's see. What did you say she has given back to Native people? Is there such a thing as an "Indian Taker"?
whom = Troll
Bye!
Troll = A person who goes onto left leaning blogs to spread misinformation, flame bait or other wise distract from the topic. That would describe you. What can't you grasp without documents Warren can take nothing from the tribe nor is she entitled to any benefits being a documented tribesman is entitled to. So to take she would have had gotten something she didn't get a thing because she has no documents she has a family story like many other mixed race children do. If you could prove she benefited from retelling her family story provide it or stop slandering Warren.
angeleno - try to ignore whomi, he is not that bright and just makes annoying replies to any conservative who posts here!
whomi - she got admitted to Harvard thru Affirmative Action by falsly claiming she was Native-American. By doing that she took away a chance for some Native-American teenager to attend Harvard! What is it about that you find so hard to understand?
Right sully because you the person who comes on the Ed show blog to disrespect Ed and his viewers is the credible poster and everyone who doesn't agree with sullys american thinker opinion are intruders. Got it sully you are delusional again.
more then you! Your hatred of color, is showing, so strong, and I'm wondering if you have color in you that you hate? OH yes, black heart!
whomi - answer the question!!!
You are lying again sully without the paper work needed she would not have been able to get into Harvard under Affirmative Action. Once again sully you show how little yoou know. So go back to american stinker and post there sully really your delusions are getting the better of you and you are in over your head.
On top of Elizabeth Warrens Native American/Affirmative Action fiasco comes another scandal: the Boston Herald discovered Warren made a pretty penny off foreclosed homes in the 1990s. She would purchase houses or loan money to family members who would purchase houses, then reap profits when the houses were sold a short time later. Warren engaged in the same business practices she now criticizes. A cornerstone of her campaign is attacking big mortgage companies for influencing foreclosures.
Also Warren worked as a lawyer for Dow Chemical Company. At the time Dow was facing thousands of lawsuits over complaints about a range of medical problems stemming from their business of manufacturing silicone breast implants. By declaring Dow Corning bankrupt the parent company halted all new lawsuits and placed the final say on settlement of existing litigation against Dow Corning in the hands of the bankruptcy court. It is certainly arguable that many of these claims were questionable. It is also compelling if one of the architects of the way to legally avoid paying these claims now champions her status both as a consumer advocate and a leading defender in the so-called war against women.

Sully stop spamming with the american stinker nonsense.
whomi - you spam nonsense all the time!
Wrong again sully I never been warned about spamming.
whomi - that's cuz you side with the fools, ehem, I mean liberals. You're posts are full of spamming. Robme, Lyin Ryin, Teabagged Republicans, etc., with little or no intelligent information! Also I've been told you're a little snitch!
So what sully those are terms they are acceptable terms, spam is posting the same post over and over. There you go again sully proving low reading skills.
whomi - spamming is also repeating the same stupid line or phrases over and over again! You can't just make it mean what you want, it doesn't work that way!
It only takes a first grade reading proficiency to read and your posts which is why so many people ignore them. I don't bother reading them unless they are directed at me because they don't make any sense.
That is because sully is delusional and sully believes he is in charge of Ed show blog.
Again when whomi is smacked down he changes the subject!
I did not get smacked down by the likes of you sully. What don't you grasp your word here is more useless then the diapers hookers took off Vitter. Really sully all you did was create your own rules except no one has to abide by your rules sully. Spam is repeating the same posts over and over don't believe me ask a mod.
Prove it? Are you paying attention, Troll
She's going to make it big when she's elected to the senate, in part because of her lies about being Native. Money, prestige, ego-boost, big player in making the laws we live by, lots of TV time, etc., etc.
Princess Warren is cashing in big time on her false Native claim. Just like lots of other whitemen and whitewomen have for hundreds of years. Racism!
Still not one fact just a bunch of hype and jealousy. Really if you are going to call racism at least know how to define racism. Here is one clue, calling ones self a member of another race is not racism saying that person can't be of another race because they don't resemble the race is racism. Without documentation Warren can not cash in on playing the race card, so you lie about that. Warren didn't bring up her heritage in the debates Brown did that all by himself. Brown has made a bunch of money from Wall street for pushing Wall streets agenda on the senate floor you seem not to have a problem with Brown being called the bankers politician. So fake outrage.
whomi - can't you read? Warren got admitted to Harvard thru Affirmative Action by falsly claiming she was Native-American. By doing that she took away a chance for some Native-American teenager to attend Harvard! What is it about that you find so hard to understand?
Because its a lie sully.

Oh btw sully Warren never attended Harvard as a student she was hired as staff. So sully 2 lies in one post. Go back to american stinker.
Brown should change his name to Black Heart. Maybe then we could see him in his real light. If I were in the area, where I could vote, WARREN would be my choice. Living in Hawaii, I have seen first hand, how, Whites, try to even put down my hawaiian blood! Yet, they come here wanting to tell us we are not real people. This disgust me to no end. Why don't they let people be, who they are? Why do everyone have to prove who they are? Can't Americans just except people, instead of trying to change them? Brown's campaign, is from out of the stone ages. Let Liz Warren bring her state back to 2012. A light will shine on this state then
You're right to say we should let people be who they are. And we should accept people instead of trying to change them. Amen to both sentiments.
The problem in all this is that the Federal government and the dominant culture have refused to treat American Indian people those ways. The government and the people of Amerikkka have done everything they can, including genocide, to change Indian people into pseudo-whites.
They've broken up Indian families, kidnapped children and put them in indoctrination camps, and when whites wanted their land, force-marched them to some god-forsaken pest hole so whites could have their land. And when all else failed, they brought in the Army or gangs of vigilante thugs to kill them. And millions of them were killed by whites. Great big historical FACT.
Many Indian people despise Amerikka, whites, and the dominant culture because of this 500 year history of genocide.
So, we don't have any tolerance for whites who come around and try to be pretend Indians, and use that pretense to score benefits like a Senate seat, and all the money and prestige and adoration that comes with it.
There's a simple way to tell that these Plastic White Wannabe Indians are total frauds. What have they given back to Native people? What have they returned to Native people? In the case of Princess Warren, the answer, so clearly presented by Troll, who can cite nothing, is that she has done nothing for the People. Therefore, in Indian Country, Princess Warren is obviously a fraud, and is treated as such in all the Native media. Instead of name-calling, like Troll, go read the Native online newspapers, and you'll see what I say is Truth.
Still pretending your not a racist I see. Sorry but again you are full of crap because without documents Warren can not gain any benefits for being Cherokee. So what we have is a lying person who hates Warren because Warren told a family story and someone used the story for their own gain which Warren has never benefited from. You are irrational as well because who are you to say if a family story is true or not. Most experts agree family stories have truth to them.
melven - if that is how you feel why would you vote for a white woman who falsely claims another race simply for the benefits? We have many ethnicity's where I live and it is the Hispanics and Asians who immigrate here and then look down their noses at the rest of us. It is not just whites who do this. I think this is more an unfortunate human trait than racial nature, though it is ignorant either way.
Sully lies some more gee how surprising. Really sully if you lived near me I would look down at you too.
Elizabeth Warren is a fighter for all the People. Elizabeth isn't anti-growth, anti-business, she believes that everyone deserves the basic rights and deserve an equal chance in life.
Elizabeth believes that corporations has a responsibility to run their business safely and responsibly.
Thank You Elizabeth for being a voice for the Middle Class.
She's a fighter for all the people?? Really?? Seriously??
OK, just for the sake of argument, cite three (3) things she has done for enrolled Native people.
If she's really a voice and a fighter for all the People, this should be an easy one. Ready? Set? Go . . . !
