The poster said a federal agency that I support needed to be "straightened out" and that it simply represented "more government money going out." She didn't just ask for information on the CFPB, and what it does.
That's an expression of a political opinion.
And yes, I also oppose the posting of rightwing politcal messages in Leisure, as in the last such round with the anti-Obama jokes. And I'll oppose it the next time it comes up, here or in Leisure. And it will come up because, rightwingers being rightwingers, they think they don't have to abide by the forum protocols.
This has been chewed to death in this thread. If anybody takes anything away from it, I hope it will be that there finally is a consumer advocate on their side in Washington in dealing with credit card companies and financial institutions. |
