This butt-clown threw money at the economy like a drunken sailor on shore leave for much of his tenure. He rarely spoke clearly and openly, instead using arcane and BS language disguised as "articulate". The mess we're in has Greenspan's name all over it. And NOW he has the balls to tell the current Fed to be careful in lowering rates to aggressively??? What an ASSHOLE. Some people claim Greenspan is the greatest Fed Chairman ever. Nonsense. That honor goes to Paul Volcker; a man of character, wisdom and courage. I wouldn't hire GreenPussy to handle my kid's piggybank. I feel very sorry for Ben Bernanke who now has to clean up after GreenPussy. I wouldn't want his job for all the tea in China.

Spot on in your analysis, he is a major hypocrite and talks out of both sides of his mouth with the greatest of ease.
We will weather this storm.

The "mess" is only a blip in the longest & strongest economic expansion in history -- largely due to to Greenspan's handling of the money supply.
His only "contribution" to the mess was to help raise the performance bar so high that now cry-babies call every little problem a "mess."

He is married to Andrea Mitchell of NBC News. He has to say something politically correct once in a while or sleep on the couch.

One thing that people don't realize is his way of describing his actions when he was Chief was purposefully ambiguous so people wouldn't be able to understand what he was doing, namely, the dirty work of the financial elite.

The old goat is building a 'staircase to heaven'.
He could've quit if he felt so concerned about the mismanagement.
