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.

Well put. And to make it even more unnerving, this is probably a test run. If Obama gets this done without sufficient backlash (Mitch and John, that means more than bleating at a microphone at a press conference), imagine what else he might try to accomplish through the Federal Reserve.

The apparatchiks always think they can keep grabbing without consequences.

This jerkoff is going to find out the hard way that there is a limit to what the right will put up with.

“starting today, we can now exercise the full authorities granted to us under the law”

Uh, what law would that be?

“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.”

Country-wide Chris Dodd is gone, Bawney Fwank will be gone soon, while the damage they have done will continue for at least a generations. There fixed. Frank and Dodd should be in jail for what they have done.

I don’t want to hurt your feelings Dick, but I don’t want any effeminate, commie Obamanoid “standing up” for me for anything. I’m NOT HONORED that my taxes are being wasted to form another Nazi nanny state government agency full of freeloading, bigoted government bureaucrats. Take a hike Skippy! Why don’t you get a REAL job?!

I happened to review last night the twenty-seven charges our Founders made against King George in our Declaration. They were against the King and not Parliament for the simple reason that none of the listed outrages could have happened without his consent.

In similar fashion we are mostly abused by Executive controlled agencies . . . all under Obama’s control.

It will all come crashing down very soon.

It is also telling that Cordray’s epistle was also cross posted at Huffington Post.

“”As we move forward, please let us know what you think””

First off, I’d like to tell him that there must be hundreds of thousands if not millions of people in this country right now who do not qualify for a credit card. Therefore, I think his first order of business should be to make sure banks issue credit cards to those least deserving among us! That oughta’ do it! What do we care if they can’t pay them off? That wouldn’t even be expected in obozo’s world, would it?

Let’s all make sure we keep tabs on that website so we can follow all the “good” they will be doing to protect consumers in the financial market. Can hardly wait.

“”As we move forward, please let us know what you think””

Yeah, that caught my eye too. It strikes me as an invitation for assorted miscreants, OWS and community rabble-rousers to pile on their assault of American business.

And yesterday the EEOC floated regs to oversee businesses that require High School diplomas of their job applicants.

We used to be a republic.

Maybe the first thing the CFPB will do is put the heat on the FHA, lenders and consumers to stop the 3% FHA backed home loans /s

The CPFB will be used by Obama as the consumer finance equivalent of the EPA. Rule by presidential edict.

Consumers = left
Producers = right

People know fairly accurately where they are on the bell curve.
