I am enjoying this too much

Now THIS is what American political discourse should be about. I am not joking. I love this. The economic debates are mostly substantive, very important, and mostly rational. All the real talk I hear from Washington is about philosophical and practical differences of opinion. Sure, there's some marginally necessary noise about who's to blame for the mess (Barney Frank, George Bush, Bill Clinton, Alan Greenspan, etc.) and some stupidity about what good and bad buzzwords can be hurled (socialism, facism, eitism, etc.). But personally, the current action is thrilling my heart and mind.

Next week the House will start committee debate on what oversight will occur with the 2nd installment of the TARP funds. Incoming Treasury Secretary Geithner will face the Senate confirmation people by the end of the week. Geithner will likely release his thoughts on how the TARP funds should be monitored.

This really is almost too much fun.
