Maybe there never was an affair and this is an elaborate cover story...

Her position pays an annual salary of $187,605, according to the communications office of the bureau.

Not bad. I heard she was asking for 187,605.33

They are all corrupt

[madameguinot]

Sounds familiar. Is she going to run for Senate in NY next?

[Travis McGee]

The stink of corruption.

Welcome to the late Ottoman Empire, American style.

Everyone one the payroll or make them pay or die. The Clinton years are here again. The skies above are clear again.

I had read elsewhere that Holly Petraeus was a big Elizabeth Warren supporter. Now we know why.

[from occupied ga]

corruption and loot. Nice to know my taxes went to line her pockets. Maybe not as sweet a deal as what the first wookie got paid ($385k) as director of diversity for the University of Chicago hospital, but still pretty good plundering of the taxpayers.

Kelley, Armstrong, Broadwell, Petraeus, everyone screwing each other, and all of them screwing the taxpayer big time. But that's a big part of what government is all about.

I have been trying to find information about this and found very little. Thanks for posting!

Has the CFPB protected, or recovered, so much as one penny for consumers? They didn’t lift a finger to help customers of Peregrine or MF Global. Do they do anything except collect big, fat paychecks?

Furthermore, if the fed is “independent,” (i.e. lacks Congressional oversight) then why is Obama in charge of offering anyone any jobs there? Either it’s political or it isn’t, and if it’s political, it should be at least nominally under the control of The People. (But, see my tagline.)

Government jobs are just a way of rewarding friends of government officials.

Unemployment has gone down by one. Progress.

Reading between the lines here I’m guessing that Mrs. Petraeus has had some issues controlling her Visa and MasterCard balances.

Those are the folks who generally become fans of the Fake White Indian.

And now they are the regulators. Life’s a b*tch, Robert Rubin.

I feel like I totally screwed up. I should have become a democrat and gone to work for the government and kissed up to the party big wigs.

187k/year for the general’s wife, MO made over 300k/year because she was Obama’s wife, Hillary is wine tasting in Australia (on our dime I’m sure) instead of testifying about her lies and role in denying protection to now dead Americans.

Our government has become just one big giant scam on people like me.

How much longer Lord? How much longer?

Newly formed Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
The good old boy system is doing just fine thank you.
Guess where the D.C. hacks kids will start when out of school.
