http://money.cnn.com/2004/05/18/news/economy/greenspan/index.htm?cnn=yes I really thought he would have retired by now but looks like Bush is afraid of the damage it would do his already tarnished reputation if he were to go (not to mention how it would "SPOOK" the markets)

It looks like they are (eventually) preparing to allow him retire. While Greenspan himself is credited with lots of good thing I don't think it's good for an economy to be dependent on one person in such a sensative position for that long.
