our economy bigly.

i really don't think i could hate him any more than i do.

is this where Gowdy is going?

whatever greenie did technically at the fed -- and it was definitely hit or miss -- he lost whatever credibility he had when he testified about what a disaster it would be if the government actually paid off all its debt.

this was a wildly fantastical freakout response to an actual reduction of debt by less than 2%.

that idiotic fantasy promised all manner of disaster and soviet-style government takeover of businesses in the event the government actually never changed policies enough to pay down 100% the debt and then kept raking in money still without changing policies.

it was used as a pretense to pass shrub's disastrous tax cut, which returned us to ballooning deficits.


but that's someone they hail as a hero, while yellen, who did nearly everything almost as perfectly as you could ask for, in unprecedented circumstances, she gets cast aside.

and obama appointee *and* a woman, no less. she never stood a chance in donnie's world.

Start burying your money in the backyard folks, when the economy goes south this time, Obama won't be around to save us.

It would be a shame if something happened to it.

Who will he blame when it crashes and burns?

Who else?

for the uber rich

to help Obama and Hillary. He repeated it often that her stimulus needs to stop and they should raise interest rates.

The ultimate irony would be if they do raise rates faster than planned and it stops the epic stock market rally and wipes the smile off dipshit's smug face. He'd still blame Obama somehow.

The other irony is that dipshit's tax cuts are having effects on bond markets that he's not going to like. Treasury needs to sell more bonds to compensate for the loss in revenue.

I think this is normal, isn't it? She knew last year she'd be exiting this year.

She was supposedly really good. We were lucky to have her in that role, I guess.

Way beyond.
