Quote from JoshDance:
watching the financial services committee hearing with bernanke, and trying not to be political by not naming names, I just can't help but feel that we (a country) are being run by morons (who we elected, unfortunately)
The chairman of the committee says "physical policy" instead of "fiscal policy", and the ranking member has to amend some little sarcastic, political quip every time he's recognized. He's like a big baby who has to get his say in regardless. I can't believe that we are in the hands of this type of people. It's truly distressing that two grown men can't speak with respect towards each other without arguing the way they do.
I can see a bubble over Bernanke's head: "I can't wait until 1pm when I can get out of this mad house and away from these morons." Bernanke, say what you want about him, is very intelligent and likely gets amusement from the idiocy of politics.
