Busy day in DC. C-Span 3 is streaming the Bernanke hearings live. There have been some fireworks so far with Republican Jim Bunning calling bernanke “the creature from Jekyll
Island.”

Meanwhile the PCCC is collecting signatures to thank Bernie Sanders for putting a hold on Bernanke’s confirmation. (And surprisingly, there appear to be a couple of Republicans ready to join him.)

Go here to sign it. They will be taking the first batch to Sanders’ office later today.
