Matthew Yglesias:

Fed Split: Kill me now as the WSJ makes it clear that the FOMC is sharply divided over monetary policy: “At least seven of the 17 Fed officials gathered around the massive oval boardroom table, made of Honduran mahogany and granite, spoke against the proposal or expressed reservations.

Sure would’ve been nice for Barack Obama to have had some nominees confirmed.
