Bernanke is trying to scare congress to act quickly, while saying to all of us don't worry it's OK, we have it under control.
Yeah that's kind of what the gov't did with the Patriot act and the Iraq war......so for me personally, let the Democrats take their sweet time making sure this is done right and with proper oversight.

The idea that passing the law in two weeks instead of today will cause all of us to become homeless and jobless is flat out ridiculous.
Every executive branch wants to operate without congressional oversight because it would be easier that way....but that's not the way our government is set up and it's about time congress stopped grabbing their ankles for this President.
