Of course, that response presumes that Bernanke will actually BE printing money just to help Obama get elected. If he did that, it would be treasonous, because he would be causing great harm to our country.
If Bernanke doesn’t turn traitor, then he won’t be a traitor. Perry simply stated the obvious. If you do something traitorous, you are a traitor. Now people will be watching what Bernanke does, and he won’t feel so free to start printing money.
I guess people like Rove know what Bernanke’s intentions are and don’t like seeing him called out on them.
