 |  New Federal Reserve Chairman "President Bush yesterday named Ben Bernanke, White House economic adviser and a respected former central banker and Princeton professor, to succeed Alan Greenspan as chairman of the Federal Reserve." http://www.washtimes.com/business/20...1938-4764r.htm Greenspan will be a tough act to follow, but this Bernanke seems pretty good. I really like this quote from him: "If I am confirmed by the Senate, I will do everything in my power ... to help assure the continued prosperity and stability of the American economy." Really?! No duh! The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing. ~Edmund Burke | |||||||||||||||||||||

 | From that page: Mr. Greenspan lauded Mr. Bernanke's "superb academic credentials and important insights into the ways our economy functions." That's good enough for me. | |
