Battlelines
drawn on Fed chair decision
“
|
Sherrod Brown of Ohio, one of the Senate’s most outspoken liberals and
a longtime critic of financial and trade liberalisation, circulated a
letter among fellow Democratic senators this week backing Ms Yellen.
Although it does not mention him by name, the letter, addressed to Mr
Obama, was interpreted as an anti-Summers missive.
The choice of Mr Bernanke’s successor
will be one of the most
consequential of Barack Obama’s second term, with the potential to
influence economic policy making for years to come.

When
Sherrod Brown turned 7 years-old, he was given an envelope
and a package to open. The envelope, from his grandparents,
contained a $10 bill. Sherrod jumped in glee. "Mommy, will you take me
to buy the Che Guevara tee-shirt," he
implored? His parents beamed
and instructed Sherrod to open their gift. It was a Che Guevara
t-shirt. "Oh mommy and daddy;"
he cried," this is the best birthday
ever!"
I know these people, so I'm pretty sure that happened. Count on
this at
any rate. If the, perhaps, senate's biggest leftist is drumming
up
support for Janet
Yellen with the poseur, we know she must be
an incompetent oaf when dealing with free market economies.
We also can predict that Obama will give her the keys.

If your goal is to change minds and influence people, it's probably not a good idea to begin by taking the contrary stance against every liberal twat and their ideas. But what the hell.
ReplyDeleteThat kids, is what we call "multifunctionality."

ReplyDeleteMs Yellen would be the first woman to head the Fed should she get the job, adding an extra ingredient to a race that has hitherto been seen through the lens of economic and monetary policy.
“It would be great to have a woman,” Nancy Pelosi, the Democratic minority leader in the House of Representatives, told Bloomberg TV."
See, the only thing that matters is that the candidate has a vajayjay, no matter how dried and dusty it may be. That she's a train wreck when it comes to fiscal management has no bearing at all. Nope, just that she's a she. Too bad she isn't black, or a white hispanic. That would give her an extra dose of wisdom, right Sonja?

ReplyDeleteEdit off that first para, would you Rodge? Thanks.

ReplyDelete...one of the Senate’s most outspoken liberals and a longtime critic of financial and trade liberalisation...
ReplyDeleteparse that for a moment. I don't think liberal means what they think it means.....
So the choice for the new Fed chair to replace Friedrich Engels comes down to Karl Marx or Rosa Luxemburg. Gee, I feel SO much better now.
