Holy fucking face palm. This racist bitch who was arm in arm with Barney Fag in creating the mess at Fanne Mae is now in line to take it the fuck over.

Maxine Waters in line to take over from Frank on Financial Services Committee
By Bernie Becker and Peter Schroeder - 11/28/11 08:24 PM ET
Wall Street executives are bracing for the possibility that Rep. Maxine Waters will take over as the top Democrat on the House Financial Services Committee after Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass.) retires.
Waters, an outspoken California liberal who is considered to the left of Frank on financial and housing issues, suggested in a statement Monday that she is laying the groundwork to become the senior Democrat on the panel.
“As the next most senior member of the committee, the current ranking member on the Capital Markets subcommittee and the former chair of the Housing and Community Opportunity subcommittee, I hope to use my experience to continue and expand his work in the committee,” Waters said.
Frank, the top Democrat on Financial Services since 2003, has had his fair share of battles with Wall Street. But financial executives and lobbyists also viewed the Massachusetts Democrat as someone they could work with.
“Rep. Frank has always been a formidable but fair legislator who understands financial markets and the indispensable role banks play in the broader economy,” Frank Keating, the chief executive of the American Bankers Association, said in a Monday statement.
Waters, on the other hand, is seen as more of a hard-line opponent.
“She’s not a good face of the issues,” one financial executive said. “She’s too much of a bomb thrower.” To use a Max Keiser phrase. "This bitch is a financial terrorist".
The rest.
