82. Maybe you didn't click the link yourself? Looks like that quote is not in the
link. Kneejerk reactions without reading are never a good thing as you so enthusiastically pointed out yourself! Just saying ~

However, THIS quote is actually from the link:

White House aides say that Warren will also report to Obama—as a presidential assistant—and that she will play a significant role in helping to create the consumer agency that is supposed to make real the promises made in the vague financial regulatory overhaul legislation passed earlier this year. Perhaps that will be the case. And it is can certainly be hoped that Warren is on track for the actual appointment that Oregon Senator Jeff Merkley and others are urging him to make.

"While this is good news for American families, it is my hope that President Obama will nominate Warren to a permanent position to head up the CFPB. She is more than deserving of the job and the Senate should have the opportunity to confirm one of the nation's strongest consumer advocates," says Merkley.


So the question remains, why is he not appointing her? Is this being done just to appease the 'left' right before the election? That is the question that needs to be answered BEFORE the election.
