Bailout Bux 4 U! January 26, 2010: As the reconfirmation (or not) of Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke looms, President Obama and Treasury Secretary Tiny Tim Geithner are singing his praises ala Michael Jackson: “Ben, most people would turn you away/I don't listen to a word they say/They don't see you as I do/I wish they would try to/I'm sure they'd think again/if they had a friend like Ben.” The vox populi is more sour. Referencing Ben The Rat With TARP. Counting the taxpayer bailouts. Remembering how Bush Boy Ben snoozed as the housing bubble and its derivative madness built to a Bernard Hermann crescendo. Like, how Psycho was that? “Change” is Obama's refrain. Ben has changed! Paul Krugman and other wimpy critics say not enuff but hey, Ben is 2 biggety big 2 fire. In the immortal words of Kurt Cobain, “whatever”. In honor of Ben, Bush, and Obama, Mondo QT is issuing its very own Bailout Bux. Feel free to print as many as you need, just like they do in DC...
