Either they've edited that story or you're not being any fairer to Ryan Sweet than you are to Myth ... for just telling it like it is. <g>

Here's what's there now:

>>The U.S. has “a difficult labor market and mediocre GDP growth,” said Ryan Sweet, a senior economist at Moody’s Economy.com in West Chester, Pennsylvania. “Not enough jobs will have been created to keep the unemployment rate from drifting higher.”<<

If I were Ben Bernanke and wanted to become King of the World, I would:

Encourage nations all over the world to issue sovereign debt denominated in US dollars (Germany and numerous other EU nations are doing this now). I would do this even if I needed to print dollars to promise/subsidize their debt issuance (it's "free to me"). This establishes a future need by that nation to come up with dollars at the sovereign level.
Print dollars to gift/loan massive amounts of dollars to nations all over the world. I want as many (public and private) institutions using dollars as possible, and more importantly, to leverage debt denominated in dollars. (This was the purpose for the AIG bailout, and continues with currency swaps and outright purchases of foreign sovereign bonds.)
Print dollars to purchase real assets and securities which establishes my "fundamental value" as a holder of assets (MBS purchases, POMO, etc.)
