Congratulations, House Republicans!

I don't get it. Situational Christianity.

A Congressional committee investigation NO REPUBLICANS SHOWED UP FOR! THIS IS GOOD!

Senators grill New York Fed chief over reports of lax bank oversight (i.e. Too Cozy with banks they are supposed to be regulating)


“Either you need to fix it, Mr. Dudley, or we need to get someone who will.”
- Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.)

"No Republican senators attended the hearing."




Democratic senators on Friday hammered a key regulator over reports of lax oversight of large Wall Street banks that they said posed a risk to the financial system and broader economy..

William Dudley, the president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, faced nearly two hours of aggressive questioning from some of the most outspoken critics of the nation's biggest financial firms.

The senators dismissed Dudley's assertion that the banking system was safer now than it was before the 2008 financial crisis.

And they accused the New York Fed of having a culture of deferring to the large firms, such as Goldman Sachs Group and JPMorgan Chase & Co., they are responsible for regulating.

I'm totally confused with American religion and politics.

Jesus did not address limits
on the jurisdiction of the federal government.
He did not discuss liberals' USURPATIONS of stolen, fake authority.

NOW do u get it????

When I wanna give money away,
I use my OWN money, not stolen from others.

U were right about his rifle, tho.
He said to buy a sword, if u don 't have one. Luke 22:36

The only fake around here is you, David. You're not too bright when it comes to life and death issues, legal issues, guns, and who our enemies are.

You waste a lot of cyberspace with your unique, uneducated, writing style.

Grow up!

Senators only very loosely consider Representatives to be colleagues.

You dont do your reputation around here any good when you act like an idiot.

The majority are idiots, and we're the ones who voted them into office.

I'm not. Politicians know they can prove any stupid statement they can make by quoting some passage from the Bible no matter how ridicules. The bible thumpers eat it up.

I understand that too! Unfortunately.

When the everybody is like you, with a few exceptions, it doesn't matter. Does it?

Would that be anything like crony-secularism where the victim is manufactured and the media jumps on the band wagon?

Only because you're an asshole.

Taken from the bull moose idiot of a2k that you are, I'll give your advice due consideration ......., there - done and done.

If he is an idiot of A2k then CI and you are the mental giants. Of course that isn't true.
But what is true, is that your insults are as lame as your politics.

"Some Americans who never trust their govt tend to be the ones who trust it completely whenever an unarmed black person is shot & killed"

i see. The taxpayers didn't pay for deadbeats like Al Franken and the outstandingly stupid Sheila Jackson.
