Armageddon! Maxine Waters Seeks Top Democratic Seat on Banking Committee

PJTatler:

This has turned into one of those days that gets you thinking of the old saying, “Be careful what you wish for.” Not all good news stays put as good news. Sometimes, it gets up and bites you where it can really hurt, in this case, your imagination.

As PJM’s Bryan Preston reported this morning,

…with Frank retiring Maxine Waters is slated to be the ranking Dem on the banking committee. Waters marched right alongside Frank in defense of Fannie & Freddie, and once let slip that she would like to “socialize”, as in seize for the government, oil companies. She also told the Tea Party to “go straight to Hell” …

The fiery Los Angeles Congresswoman, 73 and far from mellow, who’s served in Congress since 1990, has been under a House Ethics investigation since 2010. According to Politico, Waters has been working the phones today, calling Rep. Nancy Pelosi and other Democrat colleagues to announce her plan to fill Frank’s banking post in the next Congress, as if she had nary an ethics care in the world:

After news reports on Waters’s involvement with OneUnited’s federal bailout broke, an ethics investigation into the California Democrat was initiated. In June 2010, Waters was hit with three ethics charges accusing her of violating the letter and spirit of House rules and federal regulations by assisting OneUnited, including using her official position to benefit her personal finances.

Waters has vehemently denied the allegations and asked for an ethics trial to clear her name.

Thanks, Casino!

 

She hasn't even been tried for her Stimulus Banking Fraud, yet.......how can she possibly have the credentials to match Bawney?

 

She is bereft of any intellect, ethical or moral restraint.....making her pretty much a shoe-in for a Congressional Democratic chairmanship.
