Some of us leftists may cheer verbal abuse of Wall Street, but the word carries a more negative connotation, as to the person doing the "verbal abusing," the person "given to" censure, or Warren, than does criticism or censure of Wall Street, which carries a negative connotation as to the object of the criticism or censure.

Yet it is Ms. Warren who has become the national face of opposition to Mr. Obama on the trade package.

News writing is supposed to use as few words as possible. She is opposing the TPP, but the wordier "To Mr. Obama on the trade package" makes her fight seem more personal than issue oriented.

Then, for comment, they turn to McCaskill, a conservadem and a Hillary supporter who actually made a face when asked by someone on MSNBC if Hillary were copying from Warren and claimed that Hillary had espoused liberal policies years before anyone had heard of Warren or something to that effect. And, not surprisingly, she makes Warren sound like someone who has unfairly wrested the spotlight from Sherrod Brown. And, another choice of the NYT for a quote about Warren is McConnell, who, like all rightists, pretends the center left of the Democratic Party--formerly the center of the Democratic Party-- is the "far left" of all politics.

Then, look at this Faberge egg from a member of the Bush administration, no less:

Ms. Warren was also one of only four senators who voted against the confirmation of Michael Froman as United States trade representative in 2013, citing what she called his lack of transparency on trade talks.

“She seems to be trying to take scalps and embarrass the administration without knowing what she is talking about,” said Tony Fratto, a former White House and Treasury official in the George W. Bush administration. “No one would ever question Antonio Weiss’s progressive Democratic credentials.”

The only positive comment is from Schumer, also not known for his liberalism.

FYI: all politicians are politicians, just like all other polliticians, but some politicians put advancing the interests of average Americans above advancing the own interests.

The NYT, which has been doing a pretty good job of ignoring Bernie Sanders, seems to have gone from the paper that published the Pentagon Papers to an arm of whichever administration is currently in power *cough* Miller *cough*
