A question for Ben Bernanke at today's press conference:

• In 2005 at your confirmation hearings, you said there was no housing bubble

• In 2007, you said the subprime fallout was likely to be contained

• In 2008, you said you didn't expect a recession

• In 2009, you said the Fed would not monetize US government debt

• In 2010, you said inflation was too low

Question: Are we supposed to laugh or cry?
