Fight For The CFPA Is 'A Dispute Between Families And Banks,' Says Elizabeth Warren
Source: Huffington Post

1. There really very few "heroes" in American history, but Ms Warren....................
................I believe will be a name remembered. She will never get any (economic) compensation out of her whole involvement in this mess, with the exception of maybe a book down the road and that's it. Maybe that's more than many of us will get after this fucking mess is cleaned up (will it ever be?), but I think she deserves at least that for trying to warn us of our coming suicide.

3. Elizabeth Warren SHOULD have been Obama's Pick

Instead we got the same old Rand crowd that has been ruining this economy
for the past 30 years.

The Warning
Amidst the 1990s' bullmarket, there was one lone regulator who warned about derivatives' dangers -- and suddenly became the enemy of some of the most powerful people in Washington...
