After the release of todays FOMC statement that dropped the bias toward "additional firming", former Fed Chairman Greenspan said in a press conference that he always knew Bernanke had a "firming" problem and that Bernanke is so impotent that he couldn't even get Fed Funds up.

Greenspan went on to reiterate his forecast of a 30% chance of a recession, then stated he also see's a 78% chance that he'll end up nailing Bernankes old lady by year end. He closed by giving a "shout-out" to all of his fans at the Deep Space 9 fan club and telling the press corps that he's got their additional firming "right here".
