I really have nothing to say about this headline. It is its own punchline.
My personal blog for news and musings, with occasional info for my MBA, MS Finance and undergrad students at University of Houston-Clear Lake (UHCL). Thanks for looking.

Elizabeth Warren ends up in new Consumer Finance agency post
E Warren, Harvard professor and attorney, ends up running the newly created consumer finance watchdog group, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. She's been very vocal throughout the ongoing crisis, and she's been running the TARP oversight group.
All politics aside, it will be interesting to see if she can actually accomplish anything. She's very outspoken in her criticism of banks, but it's a different story when you have to stop complaining and start coming up with policy that has to fit a broad base.
Update:
E Warren is working alongside Geithner and others to change the disclosure requirements for mortgage lending under the Dodd-Frank mandate. More here.
Just as long as we track the race and gender of the loan applicants we should be in compliance.
