Whichever is inclined most to his (Bernanke's) benefit, I suppose. People have a way of rationalizing courses of action beneficial to themselves, even people who know better.

If I had to take a stab, I'd say he's serving Congress more than anyone, or rather, the interests of certain members of congress.
