Senator Calls Obama Sexist for Warren Comments

Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH), “one of the top Democratic opponents of President  Obama’s trade agenda, criticized Obama on Tuesday for what the senator saw as “disrespectful” comments toward Sen. Elizabeth Warren and indicated that Warren’s gender may have played a role,” Politico reports.

Said Brown: “I think by just calling her ‘another politician.’ I’m not going to get into more details. I think referring to her as first name, when he might not have done that for a male senator, perhaps? I’ve said enough.”

Of course, BuzzFeed found at least three instances of Obama calling Brown by his first name in public.
