Political Quotes

“If you think we are in trouble now, if you get the politics and the Congress involved in transactions with foreign governments and the decisions about how we get ourselves out of this unemployment situation, if we have some answers about how to get out of unemployment, then I would assume we would come forward with them. And nobody on this floor of this Congress has done anything to take up an unemployment bill. So I'm glad we have the Federal Reserve over there at least trying to figure out how to make some adjustments in our economy that will deal with unemployment. The last thing I want is for this Congress to be second-guessing--or an auditor that is not elected by anybody to be second-guessing--the decisions of the people who are on the Federal Reserve. An auditor might be a good accountant, he can count, but I want somebody on the Federal Reserve, and hopefully it would be nice to have some people in Congress who can make some decisions about how to deal with unemployment.”
