Quote of the Day: Alan Greenspan's Woman

Dean Baker on Andrea Mitchell on Obama cabinet appointments:
I usually don't watch much television news. When I do, I realize why. I saw Andrea Mitchell tonight talking about who President Obama will turn to for help in dealing with the financial crisis. The first two names were at the top of the list of people who gave us the financial crisis: Robert Rubin and Larry Summers. This would be a bit like turning to Osama Bin Laden for aid in the war on terrorism.
(emphasis mine)

On a deeper note, Andrea Mitchell is about as close to ground zero on conventional wisdom as one could get, and so the general level of clueless of the Beltway Boyz™ is just a complete mind f^%$.
