All Greenspan, all the time

Bloomberg News sure is flooding the zone with coverage of Alan Greenspan's new book and, seemingly, his every totemic utterance:

• Greenspan's Miscues Haunt Bernanke as Fed Weighs Rate Cut
  By Rich Miller
  Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke is grappling with what predecessor Alan Greenspan might call a conundrum.
• Greenspan Memoir a Gift for Democrats, Grenade for Republicans
  By Matthew Benjamin
  Alan Greenspan, a conservative central banker, has tossed a political grenade into the 2008 elections and it exploded right under his Republican Party.
• Greenspan Says China Will Determine World Economic Fate in 2030
  By Scott Lanman
  Former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan said China will be the U.S.'s major competitor by 2030 and the world's economic fate depends on how much more Chinese leaders embrace markets.
• Greenspan Feared Nuclear Attack, Poisoned Water After Sept. 11
  By Vivien Lou Chen
  Former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan feared a nuclear attack and poisoned reservoirs after Sept. 11, 2001, before he privately endorsed spending of $100 billion to revive the U.S. economy.
• Greenspan Says U.S. House Prices to Drop More; Economy Can Cope
  By Vivien Lou Chen
  Former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan said in an interview with CBS Corp.'s "60 Minutes'' that the U.S. economy will probably be able to cope with continued declines in home values.

But it's not just Bloomberg. The Oracle is also on the cover of Newsweek, is featured in a huge above-the-fold spread in today's FT, and yucked it up with NBC's Matt Lauer this morning (apparently, they talked about Greenspan's habit of thinking while in the bathtub). I wonder how current Fed chairman Ben Bernanke feels about all this?
