” Today, I was appointed by President Obama to serve as the first Director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. “

Today, I was [unconstitutionally] appointed by President Obama to serve as the first Director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. [Yet another redundant, superfluous, but overreaching, bureaucracy dedicated to removing any trace of liberty from our subj.... errr.. citizenry]

Cordray can suck it.

I hope the Congress addresses his unconstitutional appointment with a vengeance.

Hussein, Cordray’s little tin god, is behaving like he has the right to piss on the constitutional precedent.

And the media, ever eager to fellate Hussein, would be screaming like teenage girls in a horror flick if a REPUBLICAN president did this crap....which they wouldn’t.

Folks, we are facing the end of our Republic if this Hussein wins in November.

I know there is a lot of Romney hatred on this board. And a lot of Newt hatred. And a lot of Ron Paul hatred.

I don’t care. None of those men would do this crap. My bottom line about ALL of the Republicans is this: they all love America. I don’t believe for ONE SECOND Hussein loves America. I think he HATES this country.

I encourage us to all vote AGAINST Hussein, even if it means voting for a Republican you don’t like. We can’t allow this kind of executive activity—working outside the boundaries of the Constitution in such a blatant manner.

Sounds like something out of Orwell or ‘Atlas Shrugged’.

Of course, in this ahole's view, it is a win/lose scenario.

Consumers "win" while businesses lose.

And when businesses lose, jobs are lost.

Standing up for consumers...uh huh, Cordray.

You sue companies for failing to comply with your progressive/socialist/communist/liberal/busybody regulations and get cash settlements. The very consumers you claim to advocate for will end up paying for those settlements in higher prices, decreased services or lost jobs.

And more lawsuits will follow because your appointment is illegitimate, which will be grounds to attack any dictates you seek to impose. The consumers will pay for that too through our taxes.

If only we had Republicans with the testicular fortitude to defund your toxic department and anything associated with it.

Dear director,

I don’t need your “protection” so just stay out of my way.

Country-wide Chris Dodd is gone, Bawney Fwank will be gone soon, while the damage they have done will continue for at least a generation.

Near as I can tell, the CFPB will be a clearing house for whiners who made poor financial decisions and will serve to harass payday lenders and pawn shops. That of course is strictly for starters.

I'm certain the authority is in some crease of the Constitution I overlooked.

The Senate is not in recess and the appointment is illegitimate!

Mark Levin just said the CFPB was made part of the Federal Reserve, and was by law not subject to Congressional oversight. Huh?

Clearly unconstitutional, but so what?

And products that do less, cumbersomely.

And illogical — what the heck does being the main bank of the US have to do with this? Oh I see, consolidating power over commerce, including the money. As well as a cute little political sidestep.

Illegally appointed...

Liberals seem to feel 'good intentions' are enough... We feel the road to hell is paved with them...
