> Oh Jesus, John, I’m sorry. I don’t know your Bio and I don’t know you. I recognize the username but that is all. Your post (slamming Obama) and link to an image site left me questioning the graph posted. When I looked up Fred monetary base I saw the M2 and M! charts instead of the one you posted. So I thought you were probably repeating a chart that wasn’t from FRED. Not accusing you of any malfeasance but assuming you did make a mistake. It wasn’t a mistake on your part but mine. I thanked you…

I really don’t think you suffered reputational damage, but if so I am sorry for that also.
