November 5th, 2009 8:04 am | by John Jansen |Steve Waldman writes the Interfluidity blog and attended the meeting between the Treasury 8 and senior Treasury officials on Monday.
I think he is a gifted writer and urge you to read his account of the proceedings.

After reading Steve’s report of the meeting,particularly your line of questioning, no one can accuse you of “being in the pocket” of the fed.

i esp like mr waldman’s anthropological observations of how “corruption” works – esp neat is his cookie avoidance, which i would be powerless to emulate, btw – his title “sympathy for the treasury” is also very appropriate allusion to the rolling stones song?? perhaps?

The cookie was delicious. I accepted the bribe and the bottled water.

John, if you start having recurring nightmares of Yves Smith murdering two of your fellow bloggers, well, then you might want to start asking yourself if you possibly might have actually been in Beijing as opposed to Washington.

okay, pretty quiet around here today.
The answer we were looking for was “what is ‘The Manchurian Candidate”…The Manchurian Candidate. Now, John, you still have control of the board, so back to you.
