Got what right? Made the financial elites the recipients of $$$ Trillions from average joe's pocket? Yes.

Overseen job losses and stagnant wages for average joe whose pockets got picked by the financial elite? Yes. Now much was inherited, but you have to produce a gain of 150,000 jobs a month just to stay even with population growth, both internally and through immigration. Nothing to celebrate thus far despite what the writer says.

Last September, the Fed, the Bush administration and Congress pushed through an unpopular $700 billion bailout plan to keep other parts of the financial markets from collapsing.

that is the key story,, obama stimulus bill hasn't done much small amount spent and our children will pay for decades.

next obama can get a one payer health system started and huge more tax increases down the road to support it. then maybe get his cap and trade passed and increase everything produced in usa vs competition in other countries. corporations will gladly pass on what they can in increased costs to the consumer.

do you think nytimes would print a negative article on obama?

>>What if, amid all their missteps and all the harsh criticism, the people in charge of battling the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression — Ben Bernanke, Timothy Geithner, Lawrence Summers, Henry Paulson and the rest — basically succeeded?<<

what if the arsonist fireman put out his own fire?

well, he goes to jail.
