just from his statement alone, McHenry represents the WORST of American politics to me, either corrupt or inept... maybe both

Cummings ftw

McAsshole

I think in another lifetime his name was McCarthy.

Maybe you ought to do a little research on Ms. Warren, the newest unelected tyranocrat who will be "protecting" the consumer from Wall Street.

Who protects the average man from having everything stolen by vote-buying socialists?

"Ms. Warren had never worked in financial services – in fact, she had never held a job in any financial industry – but as a Harvard law professor, she had written a variety of articles and books."

In other words, unqualified. Just like you-know-who.

Right, because we all know that having a job in the financial industry automatically makes you an expert on the financial industry. Clearly, my five years experience coding software for banks makes me eligible to run the SEC.

Educate yourself, instead of just regurgitating what you hear in your echo-chamber.

Context, anyone?

So you have to have worked in the financial industry to be qualified to make recommendations on making laws to regulate it?

You know what experience can be very valuable as a regulator? Knowing and being involved in regulatory laws on the industry, because you tend to see what laws have been effective, what haven't, etc. It also means you might know a thing or two about what makes a good, well written law vs. a bad one. Now, you got Warren on that one. She doesn't have squat for experience there...

Except of course a BS in law from University of Houston...
...and JD from Rutgers Law...
Editor of Rutgers Law Review...
Decades of experience working as a lawyer involved in financial transactions such as wills, real estate, commercial law...
Over a decade of experience teaching in five universities, one including some crappy college called Harvard Law
Over 100 peer reviewed academic articles
Six academic books on the subject
Vice President of American Law Institute
Best selling author/co-author on personal finance
National Law Journal's 50 most influential female lawyers
Multiple award winner for both practicing law and as a teacher on the same subject

Other than that, she's completely unqualified!

Is this what America has come to? If you accomplish the above, you're in no shape qualified to make recommendations for regulations to help protect American consumers financially?! I get you disagree with her, but disagreeing with her doesn't make her unqualified.
