WASHINGTON — Senator Elizabeth Warren criticized US Representative Blaine Luetkemeyer Thursday for making a “sexist and offensive” comment about her at an American Bankers Association meeting in Washington.

The Missouri congressman said that the banking industry needs to “neuter” Warren in an address on Wednesday to the powerful trade association of financial services industry officials.

He also compared Warren to a character from “Star Wars,” saying she’s the “Darth Vader of the financial services world.”

The comments were reported via Twitter Wednesday by Joseph Lawler, a reporter with the Washington Examiner who attended the bankers’ event.

1. And the Third Way agrees with them.

Imagine that.

2. Leutkemeyer is an idiot...

he's from my area. Can't figure how or who elects the moron.

Must have some of that Koch money??? There was a big push after 2004 to rid our state of Dems.

It seems to be going well for them, unfortunately for us.

The Jeff City Government has almost rid our state of St. Louis(Democratic Majority). We'll see if there are enough Dems to get the Governorship this year.

Be good to replace Blunt as well.

Good on Sen. Warren's response. She's great!
