Bunning Calls Bernanke's Performance "Worse Than (Fired) Notre Dame Coach Charlie Weis"

From The Hill

Sen. Jim Bunning has placed an additional hold on Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke's nomination to a second term.

Bunning's office confirmed that the Kentucky Republican is joining with Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), who caucuses with Democrats, to seek to block Bernanke's confirmation to a second term atop the Federal Reserve Board.

Bunning blasted Bernanke, whose nomination he did not support when President George W. Bush nominated him, during the Banking hearing.

“I will do everything I can to stop your nomination, and drag out this process as long as I can," Bunning said.

Sanders announced he'd place a hold, an informal parliamentary move in which a senator seeks to prevent bringing a nomination to the floor for a vote, on Bernanke on Wednesday evening.

"Notre Dame just fired a coach with a 6-6 record," Sanders told reporters Thursday. "Well, Ben Bernanke had much worse than a 6-6 record."

Cenk Uygur of The Young Turks thinks Jim Bunning is awesome! (Not really, but he agrees with him that Bernanke has to go.) Left-right convergence continues. Big eye-roll on Bernanke.

Here's another good one from Cenk on Jamie Dimon as Treas. Secretary. Interesting to see mainstream liberals questioning Banks Obama's motives. Is Obama going to give us real change? (Hey, no laughing!) Well, do it already.

Cenk on socialism, Grassley style. Hilarious. Perfectly themed for this site (IMHO).
