After the Obama administration's first attempt to ease Chinese concerns about the safety of their US assets ended in laughter, the confidence campaign is back on again. This time the Beard wil make the case that US economic policy designed to ensure the long-term health of the country goes beyond collective prayer. With Chinese scrutiny of US policy increasing by the day, one can only imagine what the reaction will be if the voice of reason is replaced by somebody who wants to talk about how much of a kick ass tennis player he is in between naps.
Chinese To Hear From The Beard Of Reason

greg, if you were a stock i would short you to zero and then delist you.

Greg - If you were a stock, I'd request a certificate from by broker and wipe my ass with it

Greggums,
I think you knocked something loose last night and I have been on the toilet for an hour. Would you be a dear and pick up a plunger on the way home?
Love,
Mom

Greg - Wouldn't you get more job satisfaction and sense of genuine accomplishment by just staying home and collecting unemployment? Think about it

At least Princeton will have me back.

Who the fuck cares about China. I'm sick of all this bullshit. Shut the fuck up and wake me the fuck up when we're at war or something.

Hmm, a website dedicated to tearing everything down finds one of its editors on the receiving side of things. Quite a conundrum.

Replacing Bernanke would also give the Chinese the problem of trying to figure out what's the Mandarin equivalent of "Andrei Shleifer"

Are you Chinese by natural repro procedures?

Let's see...I'm a hedge fund and I stick a bid in the SPUs on a day in early Octs for infinite size. I wake up a few months later now owning a shitload of US Equities- is this supposed to surprise me? Instead of admitting that I was a shitty investor I now pretend to have power over all US corporations and demand that they "follow through on their promises."
The PBOC has been the biggest example of fighting the market in history. Like all other examples of fighting the market for extended periods of time, it'll end in spectacular failure.
