Maxine- 3.jpgAugust looks set to be the month of Mad Max. The derivatives diva is a bit irritated that lobbyists are starting to win the battle against the proposed Consumer Financial Protection Agency by targeting politicians who rely on Rolling Stone to teach them about the evils at GS.

“We think they’ve hired three lobbyists for each one of us,” Rep. Maxine Waters said at the rally, adding that lobbyists were “running up and down these halls” persuading lawmakers who don’t work primarily on financial matters.

As a result, Maxie has vowed that she will be ramping up her speaking engagements around the country next month. She will be spreading the message that only through the CFPA will people rest easy knowing that the woman previously famous for threatening to nationalize the US petroleum industry has their back when it comes to preventing unsuitable investment proposals.

    She wakes up early every morning
    Just to do her hair now
    Because she cares yeah
    Her day oh wouldn’t be right
    Without her make up
    She’s never had a make up
    She’s just like you and me
    But she’s homeless, she’s homeless
    As she stands there singing for money.

    Preaching please
    Although her body is not mine
    I ask now why God why
    She’s just like you and me

    The pouty lips say “come on in yo,” The girthy mic says “but only if you’re a two-hander.”
