Liz Warren = My Hero. Give 'em hell Liz!  :)

Professor Warren, You have been the sanest and more reassuring voice amid the recession. Why the President hasn't put you front and center is beyond me. Listening to Geitner makes me cringe. You inspire confidence. Please keep up the good fight!

Put the year as well as the month please.....This is 2009, I deduce. I can only assume it is.

She is lovely could we please have a fire in the background so we could really enjoy a cup of tea

this entire legislation is operating on an unconstitutional assumption, that congress has the authority and power to grant public funds to private companies. this is expressly forbidden in the constitution. I can't believe the supreme courts are completely silent on this issue? I know for a fact that countless law suits have been filed against these legislations.

we are a constitution representative republic I know, but we're also based on adam smith, who's against govt interference in trade

blaming poor people??? Elizabeth Warren?? I'd like you cite that please. I've been following her for the past 3 years and she is resolutely on the side of consumers (especially "the poor").

We The People got to take this country back.

Fuck The Federal Reserve

So far we have William Black and Elizabeth Warren who have spent some political capital ostensibly against the Wall Street/DC fraud.

What is Warren's next move? She can call for transparency, and there seems to be pressure to reveal who exactly is getting all this money from Fed and Treasury.

Is she allowed to do a media tour or something? Like the US Comptroller did two years ago?

Exactly. It's amazing how uninformed and out of touch with reality these "teabaggers" are.

[Eliaures]

This woman or Sheila Bair should be the Treasury Secretary; but since they are not Wall St. insiders and not beholden to Obama's financial community campaign contributors, it wasn't going to happen nor will it ever.

ginsley12 I share your skepticism. Warrens first attempt at outreach to the taxpayers paying for this bailout was to try to blame poor people getting mortgages. She sounded like a Rush Limbaugh ditto-head.

I am pleasantly surprised she has started to tell the truth about the fraud at Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan, Citi, Bank of America and UBS. She now seems to be publicly mentioning the outright *fraud* these people were engaged in, like Black did on PBC recently.

Where is Volcker?
