McCain: Helicopter Ben was too slow with the helicopters

As if I needed another reason to oppose McCain:
Republican presidential candidate John McCain said Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke should have been quicker to cut interest rates to try to avert a recession.

"I personally would have liked to have seen those rate cuts earlier,'' McCain said today on ABC's "This Week with George Stephanopoulos.'' "That doesn't mean I want him fired, it doesn't mean I've lost confidence,'' McCain said.

I guess McCain thinks we should just have 0% interest forever, and we'll be fine.
