Write Your Senator: No More B. Bernanke!

I just sent the following as an e-mail to both my Senators. I wish you would do something similar. Let's celebrate the recent loss of a filibuster-proof (D) majority in the Senate, and push back when we see stories like this.

NO on Bernanke Re-Confirmation

Dear Senator Whatsyourname,

Ben Bernanke has no place at the head of the Federal Reserve. He has no place as a bank teller. He is an economic illiterate. If you do not place another hold on his nomination, please at least urge your fellow Republican (and Democrat) Senators to vote NO. We need this man gone.

It is easy to fear the devil you don't know, but it would be hard to get a candidate worse then Mr. Bernanke.
