he had painted a positive picture, then his appearance before congress, which already felt like a kangaroo court to me with elements of arthur kessler's darkness at noon, it would have turned into darkness all day. bernanke had to spin it because anything more positive than that would have made him look like a capitalist lackey of the banks in front of the congress. here's a twist. if he'd struck a more buoyant tone we would have seen the equivalent of the house unsoviet activities committee demanding that bernanke name the names of all the card-carrying capitalists at the fed and the treasury department as well as the puppet masters on wall street. so we've got the contrite downbeat bernanke, but i believe his testimony was all about politics, not economics. still it meant those of us that believed better times are ahead had to hear why we could be wrong. that's why we went down. bernanke's testimony taken at face value made me feel like the cat had its last good quarter and things are all downhill from here instead of what i think is true -- its last bad quarter before an industrial rena

a kangaroo pumps up the flat tire. a dog urinates on the fire that's on the stage. gretchen: what does the pig do? >> tell me that's not something. i know what i a pig did to me once. pig pulls a curtain and closes the show. the pig says the end with his bottom showing. the funniest thing you ever saw. clayton: it is a fantastic display. throughout the morning here we're going to be featuring jack hannah and things from the columbus zoo. well done. >> we got all kinds. baby elephant, all kinds of things come up. gretchen: i told my kids to make sure they were watching "fox & friends" this morning because their favorite guy jack was going to be on. we'll touch base in a little bit. clayton: i want to see that rat. steve: straight ahead. is there one man who could bring the republican party back to its former glory? we're going to tell who you is being hailed as the future of the g.o.p. it's a familiar name. gretchen: and we've been following the calculated double murder of a florida couple who spent their lives helping others. so where would the eight suspects in tha
