"Cinical Psycholigists in virtual unison have declared conservatism as a mental disorder."

comment: More rate cuts do seem necessary.

Uncontrolled inflation is far more destructive than a short term recession. With the 1970s in view, what is the logic behind more rate cuts when inflation and growth in the money supply are out of control?

Cinical Psycholigists in virtual unison have declared Mcvet has a mental disorder. Todays smoke screen of persistant denial from Fed Chair Bernacke seems to confirm this clinical assessment of McVet.

The idea that a ginormous economy can be controlled like a thermostat by dialing the interest rate is laughable.

Might take more this time... how about slashing the bloated military budget and reassigning the savings to well targeted government programs.

Bernacke following thru with the Reverse Robin Hood Repiglicon scam of stealing from the poor to give to the rich. Want more of the same? Then vote for Vietnam Civil War mercenary John McCain or Moderate Republicon Hillary Clinton. The dumber the USA gets, the more likely they will vote for either one of these Conservative scumbags.

Bernanke is a clown. Lower interest rates, more inflation, and a weaker dollar are the last things we need. Bernanke is doing more to destroy the long term potential of America than anyone else right now.... It''d be great to see McCain and Obama both indicate a desire to fire Bernanke as one of their first acts as president rather than continuing this destructive inflationary economics. What is Paul Volker doing these days?

Great! Why did GW put this guy into this position? Bernanke is going to cripple America with inflation. We might as well use the dollar for toilet paper and wall paper like the Germans needed to during the Great Depression.

"i need a nanny state to take care of me,,,"

that is the republican motto. Be afraid of the spooky enemy we are going to tell you about. give us all your money and power and freedoms and in return we will protect you from the bogeyman we created.

do not think for yourself, just listen to the corporations... they have all of our best interests in mind. shame on those nasty government regulators for trying to shame those kindly corporattion.

If you were a real man you would fend for yourself and realize those handouts are for the rich
