I found it amusing when Obama said choosing this woman is one of the most important things he will do. It is the Federal Reserve who chose HIM.

[brianx]

I don't need to know ANYTHING about Janet Yellen.

[salsouza]

i don't care who is running the FED, we need to END THE FED!

[briankrol]

Print money and hand it out to the people for once!

[AltRightNews]

Of course she does. She's one of the architects.

If you divide the debt increase since Qe started by the jobs created its cost 890, 000 per job.

A believer in 'interventionism'. A 180 degree turn from Alan Greenspan 'less government' idea. I wonder how the Republicans are going to like it.

The old idea is there should be enough balance between 'bean counters' and 'flamboyant ones'. since she argued against Alan before depression, she obviously know the signs when things go haywire. I hope she has enough flamboyant ones in her team else team would not set sail at all.

Surprise! Obama picks yet another Jew to head the Federal Reserve Board. So much for diversity.

[TheGuerillapatriot]

She hasn't even run a hot-dog stand.

the signs could not be worse...

an academic who never held a real job all her life who "feels the pain of the people" and has the best intentions in the world

this is THE woman who is going to finish paving the road to hell for america, all with good intentions - the best intentions.

And people wonder why anti-semitism exists.

[chuckatleescap]

The ultimate nanny in the nanny states of america. There is no doubt whatsoever now that we will see very, very high inflation by 2016. Lots of planets aligning: Baby boomers retireing, new president in 2016, stock market at all time highs, war drums pounding, and a government addicted to their credit card with no limit. God Bless the people in the U.S....

Don't know who's keeping her afloat but the boat is starting to sink.

[TheErodChannel]

Ms. Yellen has very odd, almost non-human speech patterns.

And another clown joins the circus.
Only this time one dressed as a woman.
A clown in any
Time to zap the Fed.

Yellen does not get economics at all. It's likely she doesn't get commercial banking as well.
