Don't you wish every investigation into governmental actions were as forthcoming as this presentation?

Elizabeth Warren is a peach

The American people have been ripped off and robbed blind at the hands of the banking cartel and corrupt bought and paid for politicians. Nothing has changed..

This whole financial reform is a big ass scam, government spending and FED money printing is the eCONomy now.

There is the June update.

Ben Bernanke, Hank Paulson, and Turbo Tax Timmy Geithner all belong in prison.

This woman only mentions the role of the Federal Reserve as if it were only an accessory in robbing everyone blind. Wall Street is not the primary problem. Did her panel find out who owns the Federal Reserve? Or, where our gold at Fort Knox and elsewhere is now? Or, what the percentage of the Fed's IRS's collection efforts goes directly into the Fed/private central bankers pockets? If analysis by a middle-aged woman does it for you, better off searching Catherine Austin Fitts.

Can we mount a citizen-nominated presidential candidate? (I know this would be an extremely radical idea in our pretense of a "democracy").

I NOMINATE ELIZABETH WARREN FOR PRESIDENT IN 2012. Anyone agree with me, vote up.

@Seasass - and I would also say that Warren would have made a great replacement for any - ANY - of Obama's Goldman Sachs/ Keynesian Clown alumni club of banker bootlickers he calls an economic team. It's still not too late except it would probably really piss off his handlers.

@bnfox You landed on your feet, very well, my friend. It was probably an accident that Reid appointed her. He has the wit and intellect of a small soap dish.

[bnfox]

@Seasass -thanks for the info - very informative. Now I can say - Harry Reid must have been drunk when he recruited Warren - as far as I can tell she's the only competent appointee in the Democrats' administration. And that will save me the trouble of blaming Obama - I generally like to blame Clinton and Bush for everything anyway.

[Seasass]

@bnfox Warren was not appointed by Obama. The 5-member Congressional Oversight Panel was determined as follows: the Speaker of the House, Senate majority leader, House minority leader and Senate minority leader each appointed one member, and a 5th member was appointed by consensus. Warren was recruited by Harry Reid, the Senate majority leader, before Obama had even won the election in 2008. She was chosen to be chair by a majority of the other panel members.

Obama must have been drunk when he hired Warren - as far as I can tell she's the only competent appointee he has.

@GammaSigmaBeta Agreed.
