Despite rumors that various splinter forces within the Republican party are attempting to block Ron Paul's fateful chairmanship of the Monetary Policy Subcommittee, we now have confirmation that the only sane politician left will now be Ben Bernanke's direct nemesis during any and all future Congressional spectacles starring the printing unchallenged one. And with US debt creeping ever closer to the debt ceiling, coupled with the dollar for dollar monetization of the US deficit, such spectacles will soon be plenty. Fast forward to 3:30 in the clip for the announcement.

======================================= Ron Paul has waited over 20 years to be the Chairman of this committee. Now he has teeth.
U.S. Constitution - Article IV, Section 4: NO BORDERS + NO LAWS = NO COUNTRY
This is great news and a prime example of why it's GOOD that Ron Paul is working within the Republican Party. Let the shills and losers whine all they want, nobody is listening to them, nobody. Go get'em Ron Paul, go get'em!
"The person who agrees with you 80 percent of the time is a friend and an ally — not a 20 percent traitor" - Ronald Reagan
False teeth that he will not be allowed to use by the other members. A no confidence vote here, based on past performance.
This is good news. Bernanke might just as well pitch a tent in front of Paul's subcommittee's office, and save travel time. In addition to this news, Jim DeMint is refusing to back the Obama/Pubbie tax compromise, as is Bachmann in the House. It might not pass, thanks to the concessions that are built in to it. Let the lines be drawn, and the fight begin.
Paul??? Ha.
He talks Cyni, he also knows what he is talking about. Ben isn't enjoying his bagel this morning.

" On May 23, 1933, Congressman, Louis T. McFadden, brought formal charges against the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve Bank system, The Comptroller of the Currency and the Secretary of United States Treasury for numerous criminal acts, including but not limited to, CONSPIRACY, FRAUD, UNLAWFUL CONVERSION, AND TREASON. The petition for Articles of Impeachment was thereafter referred to the Judiciary Committee and has...... YET TO BE ACTED ON...... McFadden was then assassinated as the new President, Roosevelt, was the nephew of one of the founding board of directors of the Federal Reserve.

Lets see, Barney Frank, or Ron Paul as Chair of the Monetary Commission? It's a close call, but let me think this one over :P
Eric... NO EXCUSE will relieve Paul of the burden of having let millions of Americans down. HE PLACED HIMSELF THERE, no one begged or forced him. He had the only true message of truth but he was NOT then nor NOW the man to lead the revolution. False hope wears nice, but it leaves you empty always.

McFadden was my hero, Paul is a nice guy, Bonney Fwank is a queer. hehehehe
Same as I have always said, broadcast his message, stay OUT OF THE WAY, find a horse that could carry his message in a fair race. He announced his message, took millions and then took a hike, AT WHICH TIME IT WAS THEN TOO LATE FOR ANYONE ELSE TO TAKE UP OUR CAUSE.

Well, if you read it, did you comprehend and digest what he wrote? A few million Americans, myself included, understood only too well, but it was too late to find another horse. Granted, a few Paul supporters were unable to grasp the message.
"If I may quote Trotsky of all people, this Revolution is permanent. It will not end at the Republican convention. It will not end in November. It will not end until we have won the great battle on which we have embarked." — Ron Paul I see nothing wrong with throwing the slogans of communists, whom I consider an unqualified enemy, back into their teeth. I think it was a most fitting challenge. This was Paul's way of reminding the Internationale, in all their many guises, that we have their number and that we will not rest.
We hang the petty thieves and appoint the great ones to public office. - Aesop
Without looking, I think somewhere in there, Paul declares his lifetime fealty to the republican party until he dies. I do not buy into the idea there are TWO parties. Later he ran for a seat in congress as a republican, no opposition, and won handily just as he did a few weeks ago.
And now he's the chairman of the Monetary Policy Subcommittee. I think that beats a poke in the eye with a sharp stick.

randge... Certainly does... Reality of past history does not support optimism. McFadden had a much stronger position back in the 1930s, than Paul will have. He was strong enough to bring charges before Congress, charges which still stand, and have been ignored for nearly eighty years by Congress. Congress could act upon those charges any time they desire, but it seems the will is not there, perhaps influenced by the fact that McFadden was assassinated shortly thereafter. Paul has to do nothing, just get Congress to move on the original charges. "The petition for Articles of Impeachment was thereafter referred to the Judiciary Committee and has...... YET TO BE ACTED ON......"

Eric... I would disagree. Dont feel bad, neither did a lot of other 4um members. I felt I was swindled out of a bit of money, too late to find another horse, so I didnt vote. Of course I understand people that DO support the corrupt two party system, even after a candidate spells it out in plain English, "I am a pub til I die". When he declared his undying love for the republican party, my cynicical self said, he is part and parcel of the system.

"It does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brush fires of freedom in the minds of men." -- Samuel Adams (1722-1803)‡ "The ground of liberty is to be gained by inches, and we must be contented to secure what we can get from time to time and eternally press forward for what is yet to get. It takes time to persuade men to do even what is for their own good." -- Thomas Jefferson
People do not bet on nor support a horse that finishes no race.

Are you still nauseated from betting on a losing horse???
Eric...randge... In politics, that is called back filling. hehehehehehe
======================================== Ross Perot did NOT flop. He got calls in the night, several mentioned his immediate family.

Oh Please. You think there would even be a Tea Party movement if there was no Ron Paul?
#41. To: Eric Stratton, randge (#39)
If you ask me, that post by you nullifies your prior position simply by virtue of the fact that Paul, particularly at his age, clearly saw that he could do more good by being patient and then hoping, with good hope apparently, for a position such as this.
#42. To: Eric Stratton (#12)
Ross Perot even tried and flopped all but miserably.
