Discussion: Multiple GOP Sens Oppose Herman Cain For Federal Reserve Board

Moore? Yep. Bingo. The only way that guy could be more of a clown is if he grew a second head like an ettin so it too could be painted up and adorned with a colorful wig.

But he’s white and will do the GOP’s bidding to try to tank the economy if/when a Dem is POTUS, so there’s that…

Well it’s not like the two of them won’t be outnumbered by the rest of the board which takes things seriously so I doubt either one will get much of a chance to ruin the economy.

I think the Fed Board has 16 members altogether. I have to check to be certain

Cain had kind words for the four republicans.

Cain was not immediately available for comment. In remarks Wednesday night in Kansas, Cain called his Senate critics “a bunch of yahoos” and said he would not be deterred by criticism, according to the Kansas City Star.

Unfortunately, to avoid severe tax penalties for the international transfer, we prefer that you send us the cash, in small, unmarked bills. I can DM you the P.O. box.

You’re a very sweet boy.

My grand-daughter is coming to visit for the week-end. She’s single. You should come to dinner.

Stephen Moore isn’t much better. From a comment at WaPo:

I honestly didn’t even realize that there is such a thing as an M.A. in economics until I read Moore’s bio. It’s sounds a bit like a master in physics.

I had previously read that Massey, the dimbulb KY republican rep, was displaying his ignorance about John Kerry’s political science degree when Kerry appeared at a hearing about climate change, calling it a “pseudo-science degree.”

Of course, Kerry was appalled, but now I wonder after reading about the MA in economics if Massey wasn’t greasing the skids. Of course, Kerry isn’t going to head any climate change committee. Cain and Moore are being nominated for a pretty freaking big and important economic position.

Thanks.

I saw video of that I think Massey was just trying to discredit Kerry’s testimony. The exchange was extremely stupid because Massey was extremely stupid.

I think I know what Jared Kushner’s real job is. He keeps a record of who has been more servile toward Trump for any given week.

Cain’s name came up when Trump was rational enough to dress himself at the same time that a nomination was needed, so…

Gotta love the spectacle!

Herman Cain is so obviously wrong for the Federal Reserve Board I am shocked he would get any votes from either party. He is completely wrong even without the sexual harassment and assault allegations.

The former of the head of the Godfather’s Pizza chain has become weak. Could have Democrats gotten to to him 10 years ago. No way. They got him to withdraw in 2012 and now it looks like he will lose the Federal Reserve Board.Who ever sets up the GOP Senate meeting to withdraw the Herman Cain nomination is the traitor.

Apologies to Martin Scorsese.
