They are scared of our Elizabeth Warren, wonder why! ;-)

President Obama appointed Elizabeth Warren to head up the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

The appointment will allow Ms.Warren to effectively get the agency up and running without having to go through a contentious confirmation battle in the Senate. So what's all the hoopla about?

This is from our friends blog, who shall remain anonymous for our protection....

he writes this before he posts the Wall Street Journal rant....

"His (Obama's)total disdain for America, and it's laws, and it's processes is despicable.
If Dick Cheney had tried this, he'd have been accused of staging a Coup.

LOL!

The Wall Street Journal says it best!
Whatever else can be said about this White House, it isn't afraid to poke a stick in the eye of its critics. How else
to explain President Obama's decision Friday to put Elizabeth Warren in charge of the new Consumer Financial
Protection Bureau while avoiding Senate confirmation and, for that matter, any political supervision.
The chutzpah here is something to behold. The pride of Harvard Law School, Ms. Warren is a hero to the
political left for proposing a new bureaucracy to micromanage the services that banks can offer consumers. But
she is also so politically controversial that no less a liberal lion than Connecticut Senator Chris Dodd has warned
the White House that she probably isn't confirmable. A President with more political and Constitutional scruple
would have nominated someone else. Mr. Obama's choice is to appoint her anyway and dare the Senate to do
something about it.
The plan is for Ms. Warren to run the new bureau from an office at the Treasury Department. Instead of calling
her the "Director" of the bureau—the statutory title for the organization's boss—Mr. Obama has appointed her an
"assistant" to him and a special adviser to Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner.
Mr. Geithner's supervision will be pro forma, however, because
Ms. Warren rolled over him during the financial reform debate
and has her own pipeline to the Oval Office. The President
emphasized that Ms. Warren will enjoy "direct access" to him
and said she would oversee all aspects of the creation of the new
agency, including staffing and policy planning. For all intents
and purposes, Ms. Warren will be Treasury Secretary for all
consumer lending.
We would have thought a Harvard law professor would object to
the extra-legality of this arrangement, but then this is also the
crew that gave us ObamaCare via budget reconciliation and put
Donald Berwick in charge of Medicare without a Senate debate.
Remind us again why the tea party critique of Obama
governance is crazy.
The new bureau was already destined to be a bureaucratic rogue. When Members of Congress objected to it
being "independent" in the way Ms. Warren hoped, Mr. Dodd and the Administration cooked up a plan to make
it part of the Federal Reserve without actually answering to anyone there. The bureau has independent
rule-making authority and can grant itself an annual budget up to $646 million. It will draw this money from the
operations of the Fed, so the bureau needn't deal with the messy intrusions of Congressional appropriators and
will therefore receive limited Congressional oversight.
Ms. Warren's bureau will dictate how credit is allocated throughout the American economy—by banks and
financial firms, and also by many small businesses that extend credit to consumers. The bureau's mandate under
the new Dodd-Frank law is to ensure that "consumers are protected from unfair, deceptive, or abusive acts and practices and from discrimination." If those terms sound vague and overbroad now, wait until Ms. Warren's
hand-picked staff begins interpreting existing laws on fair lending and writes new rules.
In a blog posting Friday on the White House website, Ms. Warren made her intentions clear enough: "President
Obama understands the importance of leveling the playing field again for families and creating protections that
work not just for the wealthy or connected, but for every American." Given the economic growth and jobless
figures, maybe we should start calling this the "leveling" Administration.
Though her mandate goes beyond banks, the banking system is likely to suffer the most damage. Ms. Warren was
a vociferous opponent of allowing regulators charged with maintaining the safety and soundness of banks to
control this new bureau. No matter how destructive its new rules may be, they can only be rescinded by a
two-thirds vote of the Administration's new Financial Stability Oversight Council.
And the bureau will now be staffed and shaped by an "assistant" with no obligation to appear before the Senate.
The possibility that an appointed official could hold significant authority is why the framers wrote the Senate into
the process of approving the President's senior hires. Article II, Section 2 of the Constitution says the President
"shall nominate, and by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, shall appoint . . . Officers of the United
States."
Article II, Section 2 also says "Congress may by Law vest the Appointment of such inferior Officers, as they think
proper, in the President alone," but Congress explicitly did not view the head of the financial consumer bureau as
an inferior officer. On July 21, Mr. Obama signed a bill passed by both Houses stating that the "Director shall be
appointed by the President, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate."
We have here another end-run around Constitutional niceties so Team Obama can invest huge authority in an
unelected official who is unable to withstand a public vetting. So a bureau inside an agency (the Fed) that it
doesn't report to, with a budget not subject to Congressional control, now gets a leader not subject to Senate confirmation.


What a bunch of cry baby hypocrites! 
I took this next paragraph from TC at Politics Plus, he has been a tireless advocate for Elizabeth getting this appointment.
 And the brilliant part of this idea — as explained by Shahien Nasiripour at the Huffington Post (see also David Dayen’s Thursday coverage) — is that the Dodd-Frank financial reform legislation allows the person charged with setting up this new agency to be an outright appointment, rather than a nomination subject to Senate confirmation.

from a NY Times editorial:
The banks don’t oppose Elizabeth Warren to head the new Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection because she doesn’t get it. They oppose her because she does.

YEE HA!!!
