Nothing like a loving hubby to build your ego !

My inner romantic wants to think Jeff’s “Could be true” means he thinks his wife qualifies as the “hottest.”

It’s nice that her husband still thinks she is hot. And I hope Elizabeth Warren gives it to those bankers again!!!

Oops, you’re right. Sometimes it’s hard to keep everybody straight.

@Newshound

BTW, thanks for the rundown of Depression-era economic facts., which I just got to a few minutes ago. Very succinct and helpful.

I have a dream…that one day women will be judged by the content of their character rather than the colour of their hair and the appearance of their skin….

bawana: Your comment (and there was a similar one made yesterday) reflects an attitude that led to the Nazi takeover of Germany (dissatisfaction with the Weimar republic), the Fascisti takeover of Italy (dissatisfaction with the post-WWI Italian government), and Vladimir Putin’s destruction of any trace of democratic government in Russia. If you can’t put up with our far from perfect democratic processes, get your butt out of here.

lol, such inane foppery. Congress is the opposite of progress. to play with words.

Warren is a good tool for the Kabuki show we are subject to by Congress. as i said, nothing good can come from Congress until it become Progressive. and Republicans/Democrats won’t let that happen, Warren or no Warren.

Elizabeth Warren IS the hottest staffer.

If anyone “forced” them, it was bush and his “Ownership Society”, “Poor people have the same right to own a nice house as rich people”. Hoo, boy.Actually, what they were “forced” to do was, if they made loans outside the red line, they had to make loans inside the red line as well, to people who were QUALIFIED. I remember the mayor of Atlanta was denied a loan because he wanted to buy in an African-American neighborhood. I wonder why…

She’s wasting time! Get those teeth bleached! Get your hair styled! Have a “lunchtime laser face lift”! Get your nails done! Buy a new outfit! Have your makeup done by a professional! All those things could have been done in time. (might take a few bribes here and there)

You can tell how little the President wants banking reform, he chose Mary Jo White to lead the SEC.

Why not simply wear a mask? Who’s to know?

Maybe if you are young, you have to be uglier?

Typical male response. He should have said “Is true”.

Of course she’s hot. Just ask Jeff.

does anything good ever come from congressional hearings?.YES! It keeps them busy so they can’t screw something else up!
