Ron Paul, you cheeky thing! Giving the corrupt, private banking cartel a bunch of grief for destroying our monetary system and trying to hold their feet to the fire with HR 1207?

Looks like you might just get your wish, kid.

Steve Watson of infowars.net had this to report on the number of co-sponsors to Ron Paul’s HR 1207, a bill that would force auditing of the Federal Reserve:

At time of writing, a bill that would see the Federal Reserve bank audited for the first time in 59 years has 207 cosponsers in the House and is gaining traction with every single day.

According to Ron Paul’s Campaign For Liberty, the latest to become cosponsors are, Rep. Ed Perlmutter (D-CO) and Rep. Chris Lee (R-NY), both House Financial Services Committee members, as well as Rep. John Boehner (R-OH), Minority Leader of the House.

This means just 11 more cosponsors are needed for a majority to be reached in the House.

The text of this delicious bill is here.

UPDATE: Ron Paul on the Alex Jones radio program reports that the actual number is 209.  Right on, Doctor.

If you’d like to read the text of the bill, have a go.

Looks like Ron Paul ain’t the only one gunning for this waste of airtime. The Independent Senator from Vermont, Bernie Sanders, appears to think very little of Uncle Ben:

Good opening salvo. Now, why doesn’t someone prosecute this criminal and shut down his mafioso establishment once and for all?

This Jonathon Jarvis joint is an outstanding primer to understanding how markets based on credit can fail.

Adams is the publisher/editor of Natural News and a rather bright fellow. In this video, he shows he’s also willing to be a bit of a wise-arse who doesn’t mind wagging his finger at the either epically corrupt or disastrously idiotic (you pick) Washington goons who put their thumbs up to the biggest robbery in American history. Many kudos.

For those of you playing along at home, please put your game piece into the “Will Not End Well” spot on the game board. The fed has just taken over Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae — the mortgage granting institutions that account for almost half (yes, half) of all home mortgages in the United States of America.

MSNBC reports that “Both companies were placed into a government conservatorship that will be run by the Federal Housing Finance Agency, the new agency created by Congress this summer to regulate Fannie and Freddie.”

Lovely.

These two bail-outs will cost American taxpayers billions upon billions of dollars. You overlay that on a completely stagnant real estate market, soaring fuel and food prices, drops in employment and the spiraling-to-a-fiery-death US dollar and you surely have a cocktail for complete and utter failorama.

Why?

Ask yourself if the Federal government is alltruistic. Ask yourself if they are competent. Then, ask yourself if these are truly the people you want firmly gripping the financial testicles of American home-owners. Are they the people you want bailing out flubbed corporations on your dime?

Gads.

On matters of money and liberty, once again Ron Paul delivers the goods. But, will anyone listen?

The former Presidential candidate, still seated in Congress, has penned a lengthy but very powerful statement to the Congress which he will introduce as a special order next week.

In it, the 10-term representative outlines the reasons for our failing economy and the potential for a disastrous outcome. Paul’s doctrine of sound money, non-intervention foreign policy and settled civil liberties is one he’s supported for over 35 years.

During the campaign process, he was labeled as a crazy man for holding such values.

Well, with Rome burning and our elected officials just fiddling away, I’m not sure Ron Paul can be called the crazy one anymore.
