Who's recovery is this?

Democrats and Republicans can argue all day over the role of government in the marketplace but when it comes to giving another institution power…. the red flags are raised in a bipartisan manor.  Just look at the reappointment process of Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke.  You can read other economist opinions on this here.  

I will add my view that the debate over Ben Bernanke is not just about whether his actions as a Fed Chairman were beneficial to the economy.  The Fed has taken unprecedented action on the economy since the recession began and Congress does not like not holding the reigns on the recovery process; Republican or Democrat.
