Buerkle: Foot in Mouth at CFPB Hearing...not cute

many thanks to Occasional Links and Commentary http://anticap.wordpress.com/ for the cartoon and remarks:

... [Elizabeth] Warren [Obama appointee as advisor to the Treasury to architect the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau] if nothing else is astonishingly competent, and competence is too often undervalued. She has a career of being thrown into the deep end of the pool and pulling off things that by any common sense standard should be beyond her. Indeed, her banking industry detractors were clearly expecting to lambaste her for organizational cock-ups; instead, the only thing that came up in the Congressional hazing last week was Ann Marie Buerkle’s foot-in-mouth effort to blame Warren for hiring people using the pay scales established for the CFPB in Dodd Frank. . .

[The baby we can excuse. Do your homework, Ann Marie.]
