    Pretty pathetic answer to the health care question. The Obama plan is infinity times worse than cars for clunkers.

    Washington Journal, in specific, and C-SPAN, in general, is underrated.

    BR,

    Whoever put you in line for that appearance, did you a good turn..

    great program. I’m still waiting for Mr. Obama to
    a) hold someone accountable for the bailouts
    b) re-regulate / fix the financial system so the corrupt on Wall St can’t do this again.

    Excellent show! Pretty impressed with some of the viewer questions – and very impressed with some of your answers.

    I think you did a great job of explaining the financial dealings – and did a great job of being objective on the politics. I could tell that went over well with the viewers/callers.

    Congratulations on a great book!

    good interview .. you got some sane questions / gave reasonable answers .. you need a job at the WH ..
    MrsBP (Wendy) :-)

    when you were talking about the CMOs I got thinking about that interactive reprinting Orgin of Species chart

    took back the library copy today and bought the book at the bricks & mortar .. I’ve become a slow ink on paper reader these days / got hooked on interactive TBP .. kinda feel I’ve already read it here / but wonder if I had any influence on a sentence or two .. think I’d like a copy of this video for keepers with the book .. we’ll check into ways to do that

    if I got a call in – I think my question would be: what is the speed of intervention needed .. as fast as policy and laws can be written vs. baby steps with an announced sop so markets can react?
