BUSTED - Hypocrite Harry Reid Lobbies On The Senate Floor: "I Think We Should Audit The Federal Reserve"

UPDATE - REID HELPS CHINESE SOLAR FIRM REPRESENTED -- BY HIS SON!

This clip is from C-Span as broadcast on January 23, 1995.  Various reports say that Ron Paul's 'Audit the Fed' bill is dead on arrival at the Senate where Majority Leader Harry Reid has said that he will not consider the legislation, virtually guaranteeing that it will never become law.  But Reid hasn't always been opposed to a Fed audit.  In fact, he introduced legislation to audit the Federal Reserve, and co-sponsored several bills to increase transparency at the Fed in the 1990s, according to Govtrack.

Reid:

"I have sponsored legislation every year that would call for an audit of the Federal Reserve system.  I offer that amendment every year, every year it gets nowhere.  I think it would be interesting to know about the Federal Reserve.  I think we should audit the Federal Reserve — it's taxpayer's money that's being used there.  But we don't do that."

"People just don't care about the Federal Reserve.  Maybe it's because it's a subject that's not very interesting — it's not pornography, it's not murder, it's not an issue that deals with the Wild West."

Gee, wouldn't it suck if Harry Reid's office were overwhelmed by callers demanding that he allow a vote on Ron Paul's bill.  Thanks in advance to anyone who calls.  And make sure to let them know you've seen the video of Reid calling for a Fed Audit.

Ask them why he changed his mind.

KEEP THIS IN MIND

“Opposition in Congress came chiefly from Democrats who said they doubt the bill ever becomes law — but worried about sending a signal to financial markets that lawmakers want to intervene in financial affairs.

Sadly this will never pass the Senate and now you know who the culprits are! Not only are they beholden to the banks but they want the Fed to help obama

Matt Stoller: Democratic Leaders Again Whipping Against Audit of the Federal Reserve

Dear Mr. Reid,

Please consider a Senate vote on HR 459. It is the duty of Congress to oversee the private corporation known as the Federal Reserve. This seemingly independent entity is rife with conflicts of interest. The premise of creating money from thin-air, and then charging the American people interest which does not exist, bares the rampant corruption which pervades the bowels of the government as a whole. A thorough audit is the first step in our goal of nationalizing this leech on the American taxpayer.

You have taken an oath to protect the constitution and American principles. Let us take back control from the interests of international bankers, corporations and the foreign elite. Now is the time!

Here are a few quotes I encourage you to ponder:

"The few who understand the system, will either be so interested in its profits, or so dependent on its favors that there will be no opposition from that class, while on the other hand, the great body of people, mentally incapable of comprehending the tremendous advantages...will bear its burden without complaint, and perhaps without suspecting that the system is inimical to their best interests." -- Rothschild Brothers of London communique' to associates in New York June 25, 1863

"In effect, there is nothing inherently wrong with fiat money, provided we get perfect authority and God like intelligence for kings." - Aristotle

"The financial system has been turned over to the Federal Reserve Board. That board administers a finance system by authority of a purely profiteering group. That system is private, conducted for the sole purpose of obtaining the greatest possible profits from the use of other people's money. This (Federal Reserve) Act establishes the most gigantic trust on Earth. When the president signs this bill, the invisible governments by the monetary power will be legalized. The people may not know it immediately but the day of reckoning is only a few years removed, the worst legislatives crime of the ages perpetrated by this banking bill." - Charles A. Lindbergh, Representative, MN - Banking and Currency and The Money Trust, 1913

"Fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power." -- Benito Mussolini

"Those who make peaceful revolution impossible make violent revolution inevitable." -- John F. Kennedy

Respectfully yours,
-The American Public

327-98, Senator, is a CLEAR MAJORITY. THE PEOPLE have spoken. Question: Do you represent THE PEOPLE? I noticed, that in 1995, you spoke openly FOR an AUDIT OF THE ‘FED’ – of course, the need for such an audit has not changed since then – why has your stance (on this issue) changed? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fn1u3yDjhN4 ”

He wouldn't dare, but I bet this charade drums up some instant campaign contributions to ease his troubled mind.

I called Reid's DC office and asked about his position on the audit of the fed. The staff member who answered my call said that he supports the audit, but will not take action on Paul's legislation. When I asked what Reid's reasoning is behind his lack of action, I was told that he hasn't released a statement. What a wonderfully efficient system we have here.

Something smells to high heaven here. Reid has wanted an audit done on the FED IN THE PAST HE WAS VERY VOCIFEROUS.about it. Did he, maybe receive some funny money from Bernwanky.

The military-centric announcements are one part of a larger White House renewable energy blitz this week.

Earlier Tuesday, the administration revealed it would fast-track seven solar and wind electricity projects on federal lands and also held a news conference celebrating the completion of the first wind farm on federal lands in Nevada.

U.S. Sen. Harry Reid, D-Nev., speaks at the National Clean Energy Summit at the Bellagio in Las Vegas on Tuesday, Aug. 7, 2012. Before the beginning of the annual conference, Sen. Reid announced that U.S. wind power now has 50 gigawatts of electric generating capacity in a press conference before the summit.

Excerpt:

The politics of renewable energy headed the agenda in battleground Nevada on Tuesday, as Democratic Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and Interior Secretary Ken Salazar opened a fifth annual green energy conference with the announcement that a 12-square-mile wind energy farm in rural White Pine County will begin producing electricity.
Former U.S. President Bill Clinton brought star power and some advice to wrap up the daylong National Clean Energy Summit 5.0 on the Las Vegas Strip.
