A reader, Tim, points out something about my blog from this morning: at the 2:30 point in the video, Rep. Bachmann gets Geithner and Bernanke to state "categorically" on the record they are not in favor of a global currency in lieu of the dollar. But then he comes across this story.

Geithner, at the Council on Foreign Relations, said the U.S. is "open" to a headline-grabbing proposal by the governor of the China's central bank, which was widely reported as being a call for a new global currency to replace the dollar, but which Geithner described as more modest and "evolutionary."
