That's an inaccurate and even abusive account of Bernanke's positions and arguments. For a balanced account of Bernanke's views one has to look elsewhere, for example to the cover page of "Monetary Trends" for December 2005, provided by the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis. research.stlouisfed.org For Bernanke speaking himself, see: research.stlouisfed.org

For those who didn't see it, the Wall Street Journal has an excellent article on December 7 (sorry, can't post it) about Bernanke and his career-long studies and views of the Great Depression. It is highly worthwhile reading as it gives the best recap of any I have seen with regard to his history of studying the Great Depression and an explanation of his views on it. I find it very interesting that Bernanke, who appears to be an "expert" on the Great Depression, is taking the helm at a time when - ostensibly - a depression or signs of an impending depression are nowhere to be seen. At any rate it should be very interesting to see Bernanke act on his beliefs.
