Elizabeth Warren to Dems: Kill the bill

Wall Street and corporations influencing the creation of bills is agreed by everybody to be at the core of everything that's wrong with Washington. Unless it's Elizabeth Warren who's doing the criticizing, in which case Conservatives agree that corporate and Wall Street influence is sweeter than the singing of the sweet baby Jesus.

According to Warren, it was actually people at CityGroup who penned the damn provision themselves. They even made last minute edits. :roll:

Please read the link I posted.

it was something that all banks wanted not just citigroup. it doesn't undo frank/dodd but it does expand some of the derivatives that banks can use.
Warren is not being completely honest in what she is saying.

it doesn't eliminate the requirement. it expands it to include more derivatives something all banks have been seeking for years now.
what is in the bill > than what warren distorts the bill to say.
 
You're Right about that Mycroft.


Obama Bails Out Boehner On Spending Bill.....


The White House issued a Statement of Administration Policy today in favor of the 1,600 omnibus spending bill that funds the entire federal government through September except for the Department of Homeland Security which is only funded through the end of February.

Specifically, the White House objects to two policy riders attached to the bill. One, which modifies the Dodd-Frank law making it easier for banks to buy and sell certain financial products, and a second which increased the amount of money individuals are allowed to give to parties for national conventions.

A procedural vote on the spending bill narrowly passed this afternoon by a 214-212 vote without any Democratic support. If no Democrat votes for final passage this afternoon, it is very likely the bill will fail. Republican leaders hope this White House statement will help them get some Democrats to vote for final passage.....snip~

Obama Bails Out Boehner On Spending Bill - Conn Carroll

yea republicans aren't happy because it doesn't contain the immigration stoppage that they are looking for, but they are trying to hold that off till the new congress
that is why they limit HLD till feb.
 
Dems will kill the bill, and they have some strange bedfellows in doing it..... The Tea Party, who also want to kill the bill, albeit for different reasons. It's why Boehner pulled the bill off the floor today. He doesn't have the votes to pass it.
 
So Liz wants a Government shutdown? Cool. Sounds like she's going to run after all.

If it weren't for the last minute provision that was written be CityBank staff, she would have voted for the bill. She is trying to protect the interest of the American people. Shame on her.
 
Elizabeth Warren, a woman whose entire career entailed ensuring that consumers can screw creditors out of money legally owed to them through easy bankruptcy. Only in America can someone like her be considered positive for the economy or consumers. I don't know what you people think happens to the charged off balances, but FYI, they get passed on to us.

Elizabeth Warren whose overburdensome regulations on community banks and credit unions is going to drive most of your local banks out of business, which will result in the big banks getting even bigger, and credit becoming harder to get for small businesses and consumers.

Yes, she's wonderful.

Such a steaming pile of nonsensical crap.

I read you link. She does not say anything different.:roll:

would eliminate a requirement under the Dodd-Frank financial reform law that banks trade financial derivatives separately from regular bank accounts, which are protected through the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).

^^^ That is the truth.
 
That also happens to be true. But hey, you Canadians are welcome to take her off our hands.

You can keep Tres. I would be more than happy to have someone like Warren As Prime Minister here.

Yup, special interests are very keen on anything that keeps Glass-Steagal reforms of any kind from returning. Why? Because they want to use YOUR money to gamble with, and who pays if they lose their bet? YOU do, of course.

Hey, if you act quickly, we might be able to scratch up a cash bonus for you taking out our trash. Remember, you'll have to give her indigenous Indian status as well,
 


I urge y'all to listen to her speech in the senate and convince me she's not looking out for the interest of the American public.

Why ? She's a Hack who plays off the naivete of those who support her

The useful idiots that buy into her rhetoric are more dangerous than she is. She's just a rallying point.

Not a word out of her about the real criminals and corruption that led to the things she's claims to oppose.
 
Which part of my post was untrue, and got you so upset personally?

Please refute my post with specifics.

... say something even a little critical about Liz and it gets a lot of spittle flying from her acolytes.

It's the Norma Rae syndrome that afflicts the balls-to-the-wall committed Liberals.

^^^ That is the truth.

that is where it is wrong. it doesn't eliminate it at all. please read the link I posted it doesn't say what she thinks it say.
all it does is include a few other derivatives that they can't do and still excludes others.

it doesn't eliminate all of it. she is wrong and so is her hyperbole.
 
Right, haha, the Indian thing. Lulz.

You guys have nothing substantive against her.
Other than she's an accomplished liar, and typical progressive socialist. News flash, America is fed up with socialist progressivism
