Next thing you'll be crediting Bernanke, Paulson and Tim.

I do. They made some mistakes but they were shooting from the hip. Everybody wanted to throw Tim under the bus (including Ted) because he blew one speech... now the consensus is he handled the catastrophe very, very well.

Like most people if the really bad things didn't happen your assumption is that it was devine intervention... that's human nature. It wasn't, and the story will eventually be told in full.

"Next thing you'll be crediting Bernanke, Paulson and Tim."

I do. Tim and Bernanke more than Paulson, who seemed to just bail out his banker buddies with free money and no consequences.

If you want to hear what Bernanke has to say for himself, try THIS:

John, John, John. Next thing you'll be crediting Bernanke, Paulson and Tim.

You're kidding.......you don't think Bernanke has done a good job? Even Geithner and Paulson did what they had to do as awkwardly as they did it.

My God, what does it take to please you people......no taxes?!!!
