Extraordinary discussion from today's hearings. Skip to the 3 minute mark if you're rushed for time.

Watch his expressionless body as he emasculates the Fed with serene precision and then utters the most beautiful phrase of all:
And then he repeats himself because that's what professional Fed killers do.
