By now you've seen this.  The Fed's handyman is North Carolina Democrat Mel Watt.  His contact information is below.  No need to waste your time on Brad Sherman and Alan Grayson, their votes are already locked up for our side.  The remainder deserve a phone call.

From Daily Paul

Below are the thirteen Democratic Co-Sponsors of HR 1207 on the House Financial Services Committee that Dr. Paul mentioned in his video -- plus two bonus members!  Contact them and respectfully demand that they stand firm on a real audit of the Fed, and to restore the original language of HR 1207.  Let them know that we're watching, very carefully.

DB...I needed a good laugh. Thanks. This all comes down to what Barney Frank wants, too funny. It may take a year or two to have it die in the House.

Yes we can, yes we can, yes we can, you get a car, you get a car, and you get a car.

Is it time to put a little more focus on Obama?

Thanks for the phone numbers, DB--will call in the a.m.

As for Krugman, &*$^%$&*# Oh, that little weasel really burns me up! DId you know he has his minions delete substantive comments that contradict his column? He's a huge poser and faker. The clown of the economics world.

SNK,

On his own blog, fellow Keynesian Brad DeLong likes to do that kind of dirty work "with both hands." He even deletes or ignores comments by fellow economists. It's crazy, isn't it, that 99% of the liberals who fawn over Krugman actually have no idea how illinformed he is on certain topics in macroeconomics or on the business cycle.

Liberal infighting, what fun.

I have a special distaste for Brad Delong...even more than Krugman...

The United States began, in 1776, in conflict with itself. The Federalists, led by Washington, Adams and Hamilton wanted a strong, centralized government similar to England's and the Republicans, led by Jefferson and Madison, wanted limited, local governments and a weak Federal Government. The Federalists thought they had lost the battle and their party was routed and dissolved within twenty years of its creation. But after the Civil War, World War I, the Great Depression, World War II and the Cold War, the ghost of the Federalist Party of Washington, Hamilton and Adams walks the land, triumphant and unopposed, in the form of both the Democrat and Republican Party and Jeffersonian Republicans are a tiny minority of irrelevant outsiders and gadflies on the backside of the Beast. Like old soldiers, old habits of thought don't die, they just fade away.

THIS is the point were "3rd Worlders" would normally be expected to RIOT, TAKE TO THE STREETS and FORCIBLY TAKE BACK CONTROL OF THEIR GOVERNMENTS.

Thank goodness Americans are much more civilized! They "know" that writing their Congressman to complain is MUCH MORE EFFECTIVE. Right?

Stupids.

"Ron Paul Is Asking For Your Help, HR 1207 'Has Been Gutted'"

Sorry Dr Paul, but unfortunately I can't help. I lack the 33 Combat-ready Divisions, artillery support and extensive air cover needed in order to solve THIS problem. My I suggest you guys in congress & the Senate all gang-up on Obama Bin Laden and stab him to death like they did with Julius Caesar?

That's well known that money makes people independent. But how to act when one does not have money? The one way is to try to get the <a href="http://lowest-rate-loans.com">loan</a> or sba loan.
