Warren is a welcome change to Congress. She is challenging the Wall Street establishment and asked the tough questions...why are the regulators not going after the people behind the big bank meltdown that cost this country billiions.
So you don't think anyone should be asking tough questions of the banksters.

5 years later ? LOL.
Oh sure..Congress grilled them. Then they paid some "fines" to Uncle Sam and went on their merry way.
Did Congress put back Glass-Steagall ? Nah..why bother ?
You got Bernie Madoff in jail. There's your scapegoat for the financial crisis serving time in prison.

Sure I do, but only when those in DC who's stupid actions also contributed to the mess. Particularly, those who ignored warnings about Fannie/Freddie and pushed for loans to those who couldn't afford it.
They will never be held accountable. And if Miss Liar actually cared for more than appealing to her far left base, shed want the politicians dealt with too.
And keep in mind that very few, especially the liberal media, wanted to find out the truth and inform the public of who let this and caused this to happen. Why? Because it was easy to just point the finger at Bush. And that helped them more politically which is all that matter to the left

Definitely a breath of fresh air, loved the part when she asked how many investment firms the SEC brought to trial.
The hacker that committed suicide, Aaron Schwartz was indicted and could have been sentenced to 35 years. His crime was stealing online research that could have been purchased. The investment firms destroyed this country for 5 years and not one of them went to jail, seems like our government has lost focus.
No wonder they didn't want her for the Consumer Protection Bureau, too much power in the bureau, we wouldn't want to have truly independent oversight of banks, they would be at the mercy of a ruthless government agency.
