Waters secures top Democratic spot on House Financial Services Committee

Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) has been officially named the top Democrat on the House Financial Services Committee.

The outspoken liberal vowed Tuesday to protect the Dodd-Frank financial reform law from GOP attempts to dismantle it, while pursuing reform of housing finance with the new chairman, Rep. Jeb Hensarling (R-Texas).

While Waters and Hensarling rarely see eye to eye on policy, she said in a statement she hoped to "reconcile our visions" at the top of the banking panel. But she gave little indication she was willing to consider changes to the Dodd-Frank financial reform law, which Hensarling has harshly critiqued.

Maxine Waters is one of the DUMBEST people in the HOUSE. My children are smarter than she could ever hope to be. And now the Democrats have placed her at the top of the Financial Services Committee? SHE is the best the Democrats can offer?? For real? Merit, intelligence, and integrity have given way to moronic entitlement. And 15 trillion dollar debts. I'm SURE she has the solution....

You can say conflict of interest - that's the way this government operates - just take a look at all the crooks.
