First there was Bernanke saying he didn’t check to see how new banking regulations would affect the economy because I can’t pretend that anybody really has. You know, it’s just too complicated.”

Geithner citing a litany of reasons is silent about the uncertainty created by the Administration’s equivocal taxation policy, regulations/rules imposed by Washington DC or intransigence of Obama on in his approach to the pending debt ceiling. Is Washington, DC irrelevant????
