Ron Paul, the voice of truth and integrity speaking in defiance of conniving, deceitful men robbing our country of it’s wealth.

Ron Paul in 2012!

I think if they’d quit beating around the bush and try to answer the questions, he might not have to interrupt and reiterate his points again. Just like Geithner did, avoiding having to be honest with everyone and himself. Running in circles is the easy way out of these five minutes.

I heard Ron Paul explain that on the Judge’s online show yesterday. Schiff said the same thing and Ron said he had tried that, but those being questioned often abuse their time by repeating tired policy statements, so Ron uses more time than he used to, in order to make his points. He keeps the other side’s answers short, so he can make his points in the 5 minutes allowed. The format is a joke for the seriousness of what’s going on.

I adore Dr. Paul and full heartedly agree with his view points, but sometimes i think he should give the others guys chance to talk…

They established a nonsensical 5 minute rule. Nothing can be honestly discussed in that much time. Ridiculous. Barney Frank is a joke in that position – an absolute joke.

His position there is symptomatic of how far America has descended in its civics and governance.

Either this is the warning that will wake up the good conscience of a good people in good numbers; or we will go the way of Rome.

It’s up to us.

Well, I think it’s quite clear that Barney Frank isn’t helping any. Would have been nice to hear Bernanke’s response.
