2. Gee, that took the Simian all of 5 minutes.
It usually takes him 3-4 minutes to assure America that this isn't his fault or the fault of the cronies. Every problem in America is due to those effin' Democrats!!! So he's on par today.

CNBC is cutting him off in favor of Bernanke. Go with the more intelligent one, I guess.

27. Saying Bernanke is the more intelligent of the two is like bragging you're the taller midget.

6. I'm watching this on MSNBC---the DOW ticker just keeps
going down and down as he speaks....

Now, he's trying to explain Freddie and Fanny to the average American 'who may not understand how important this is.'

Now he's describing a bank run he once saw....

12. I love how his answers often include "a lot of Americans probably don't understand ..." or
"what the American people need to understand ..."

I always feel like I learn so much when he speaks :rofl:

10. What exactly has this congress not given him?
I'm sure there's something this congress hasn't given him that he's asked for, I just can't think of a single example right now. :eyes:

37. Actually, no. From what I understand from my study of the issue,
any oil pumped eventually from ANWR is already promised to Japan.

As for OCS, not sure but will try to find out.

29. We use 21 million barrels of oil per day in this country. We produce only
5 million barrels per day. We ship 1.6 million barrels per day out of the country.

ANWR and OCS WILL NOT make up the difference much less meet INCREASING demand.
