    I do not make up the rules, but if what you say is true, then what does it matter if she is part Indian or not? or if someone is part black or not?

    Gee, yet another right wing reactionary trash blog that nobody ever heard of!

    You would think after eight months, there might be some news.

    As for out to get the CFPB....yes....Wall Street has been out to get it before it even got started.

    After all, we can't have consumer protection! That might spoil the predatory lending, payday lending and student loan scams.

    Nobody can consistantly be conned into voting against their own interests like the talk radio right.

    There are several other similar articles. They all say the same.

    Here is a link that is related that I also found to be of interest:

    Wall Street banksters, big pharma and major polluters are crapping their pants over Warren which is why I totally support her.

    Yes they do! Thanks to guys like you, payday lenders are back in business, student loan scams are back, and the mortgage industry no long has to worry about the government saying anything if they strongarm or cheat their customers!

    Congradulations. Elections do have consequences.

    Of course, I doubt that you have any evidence to back your claim that CFPB was a "disaster", other than the fact that you're simply repeating the words of the biggest liar on earth!

    Ironic that Trump is trying to bully her over this

    "Donald Trump claimed he was of Swedish ancestry - but it's a lie"

    http://nordic.businessinsider.com/d...s-of-swedish-ancestry---but-its-a-lie-2016-8/

    "It seems the Trump family has been lying about their ancestry for a couple of generations. Donald Trump himself claimed in his book Trump: The Art of the Deal from 1987 that his father came to America as a boy, having emigrated from Sweden."

    we do not like that republican change the rules to get an alleged sexual offender on the court

    60 votes was needed for a reason, don't whine when dems increase the number of judges and seat two new ones with only 50 votes when they take power

    It's her registration with the BAR after applying for reciprical membership and note the $60 was prorated. Wonder why? Minority status?

    Guys like you are good at criticizing, complaining and provoking with misinformation.

    The CFPB was found unconstitutional. Like some lenders they were as unethical and practiced strong arm tactics with no oversight.
    The CFPB is by no means out of business. Richard Cordray is out and there will be changes and much more oversight. It should be of no surprise that E. Warren has objected to changes.

    You can keep repeating falsehoods, Mrlucky, yet they will never come true.

    It was confirmed by the WaPo and she has not challenged it. It is speculated she has American Indian DNA and what suspected she has is less than what the average White American has.

    60 votes are not needed, thanks to Harry Reid. It probably seemed like a good idea at the time since it allowed Obama's confirmation of 3 picks to the US Court of Appeals for the DC circuit.

    It has since been used so that federal judicial nominees and executive-office appointments can advance to confirmation votes by a simple majority of senators, rather than the 60-vote supermajority that had been the standard. There is no reason Congress can't change the rules again but they would need a 60 vote majority to do so.

    The number of supreme court judges as also changed since it was established with six judges. There have been as many as 10 during the civil war. The more judges added, the more conservative it becomes but if that's what congress wants, the number of judges can be changed.

    No, it is not confirmed, and, no, it is not less than the average White American. Why are you concerned about what is an average white American.

    No, one does not quarrel with the truth but just points it out to you and moves on.

    using it to gain advantage would be considered fraud rather than misrepresentation...

    So, you oppose affirmative action and mandated minority enterprise programs too right?
