Bernanke's Inconvenient Truth

Bernanke to congress – February 2012:  “…inflation will remain subdued.”

Now mind you, no one should interpret the following observation as any endorsement of America’s desperately hypocritical laws making lying to a government employee a crime; a serious crime; a felony, but given the contrast between Ben’s remarks, probably not sworn, and the impact on us regular folk and Roger Clemens remarks to congress about steroid use – the ridiculous indictment of the latter for lying and the ridiculous ignorance of the former who is draining the savings accounts of America’s responsible middle class and seniors, TheFundamentals would suggest that the wrong person has been indicted.

Ben, you are either incredibly ignorant or you are a prevaricator worthy of 1st degree recognition, a title currently held by Bill Clinton and John Edwards.  Of course you may consider that good company.  In either case, you deserve what used to be called “the bums rush.”

Roger Clemens needs to be found not guilty and the law under which he has been indicted needs to be tossed in the gutter in which we can only hope Ben is resting comfortably come this November.

So Clemens should be acquitted even though he lied under oath? You can't possibly mean that!
