The Fed and Britney’s Sister’s Boyfriend

The Federal Reserve has announced new rules to curb risky lending. Bess Levin sees a perfect analogy.

Is the Fed’s announcement that it’s going to start to try and prevent questionable lending practice NOW kind of like Jamie Lynn Spears’s boyfriend saying, “Hey, I’m going to run out to the Duane Reade for condoms, you need anything? Gatorade? Q-tips? (Oh, and by the way, do you have any money I can borrow?…I’m good for it…)” THIS MORNING?

Exactly. (But would that make Greenspan kinda like K-Fed?)
