Robert Scheer, Truthdig: 'How I wish that Ben Bernanke would get caught emailing photos of his underwear-clad groin. Otherwise we dont stand a chance of reversing this administration s economic policy, which is shaping up to be every bit as disastrous as that of its predecessor. Indeed, the Fed chairman s much anticipated remarks on Tuesday take one back to the contemptuous indifference of a Herbert Hoover to the public s suffering: Bernanke dismissed the wobbly economy with its anemic 1.8 percent first-quarter growth as merely 'somewhat slower than expected.' The rise in unemployment to 9.1 percent was 'some loss of momentum.' The problem with Bernanke is that he is utterly clueless as to the stark pain and fear endured by the 50 million Americans who have experienced, or face the prospect of, losing their homes.'
