Yves Smith Dissects Alan Blinder

Yves Smith's (YS) 8 March 2009 post at her Naked Capitalism decimates a piece by Alan Blinder (AB), Princeton economics professor and Fed bigwig in a prior life. I have nothing to add to YS's comments. You go girl! AB should be ashamed of himself for putting out this junk, link: http://www.nakedcapitalism.com/2009/03/amazingly-disingenuous-piece-by-alan.html.

They really need to expand their bench... they keep trotting Blinder out... every time I see him on Bloomberg I wonder what riff on the party line he is going to play...

It's different now with the internet... "pronouncements" from Ivy League pontiffs are dissected... not just swallowed whole... Blinder better sharpen his puffery... or credibility goes to zero...
