3. Excuse me, but until banksters are actually punished

through prison terms and loss of ill-gotten assets, all of Warren's "work" right now will be nothing but a lot of piss and wind.

And if even she can't get any justice for us, then maybe it's time for private citizens to carry out some "DIY justice" against these banksters.

She is PART OF TEAM OBAMA. SHEESH.Who do you think got her the job? graham4anything Feb 2013 #1
