From Sunday’s Boston Globe Political Intelligence:

Brown, Mass. GOP try to cast Warren as un-American

The alleged evidence:

In a fund-raising appeal last week, Brown campaign manager Jim Barnett highlighted a recent video in which Warren energetically argued that factory owners had made their wealth with the help of society, so they should be willing to pay their fair share of taxes.

“Elizabeth Warren and her inflammatory rhetoric will divide our country and our Commonwealth at a time when we need to come together to confront the very serious economic challenges facing us,’’ Barnett wrote. “Let’s remember we’re Americans first.’’

So the Globe believes that equates to Warren being un-American? Kind of a stretch.

Also stretching it like taffy:

On Thursday, the state GOP – which works in cooperation with the Brown campaign – fueled the image of Warren as un-American, or at least noncapitalist.

It pointed to an article about her Senate campaign in People’s World, a newspaper that proudly bills itself as a “direct descendant of the Daily Worker’’ and claims “a special relationship with the Communist Party USA.’’

C’mon, Globies – you can put the pom-poms on for Warren better than that.
