Question....Did Ag say "screw the republicans" and leave rates alone to screw up the market in the expectation that GWB might not be able to make it recover and drive us into a recession, thus getting everyone so pissed off with the republicans that we elect a democrat next time just to get out of it?

or

did GWB meet with AG and ask him to leave the rates unchanged, wiht a plan like you say to come in smelling like a rose when he gets an interest rate cut 3 days after taking office.....but thus costing all of us a ton of money in the big selloff today?

Last Question....is AG (the fed) an appointed post or is it independent? If so, was AG working on a parting shot or was he trying to make the boss look good and stay on at his post?
