★ Ron Paul takes over TV news ~ multiple videos ~ CNN, MSNBC & FOX Biz

It is amazing isn't it that the msm is seeking out his obvious expertise on current financial events when they were also the ones mocking him during the Republican debates on financial and market issues. Anyway there has been a steady stream of great articles on www.rense.com about current affairs ... check out Lame Cherry there!

GIT 'ER DUGG!

Were talking about the "bailout" and Kennedy kept referencing Ron Paul's positions to argue the point.

Ron has started getting economics lessons through with punch lines like ("where does the money come from?") "out of thin air!", "dilute the dollar", and of course "inflation tax". What's driven me nuts is that this, unfortunately, doesn't get the idea across to the less dot-connecting viewers.

The point of the printing-press money (or equivalent) is not just that it comes from thin air and dilutes the dollar, but that the dilution of the dollar means that the new money gets its value by "stealing it from the rest of the money". From your savings, your paycheck, your retirement plan, your social security benefits, etc.

Unfortunately all he had the chance for, up to recently, was soundbites. So that was the best he could do.

But now he's getting more time. So he can go to that next step. It's nice to see he's starting to do that. (I just wish he could come up with something as catchy and in-your-face as the "thin air" line.)

He's also comparing the inflation to an addicting drug and the bailouts as another fix - making the addict even more hooked at progressively higher cost. Good one.

But then there's "Wall Street dumping (their problems) on Main Street". Good also - but the words are slightly off: They're not "dumping" on Main Street. They're "sticking up" Main Street. They're robbing the businesses to get their next fix.

The Fed banks are the drug gang. "Thin Air" money is the drug. The institutions asking for bailout are the addicts. The addicts are running a protection racket on the Main Street businesses and sticking up the workers, soccer moms, and retired folks. The bailout is the drug gangs and the addicts trying to corrupt the cops and city hall and get them to help them run their drug business.

Put it in those terms and its accessible to virtually any voter - and perhaps even to a legislator and his office staff. B-) (Even if they think taking the bribes from the druggies is a good idea, they understand that getting caught by the voters is a bad idea.)

I hope that's where he's going. And that he gets there in time to head off the bailouts. (Unfortunately you have to take time to put each idea in place and nail it down before you can hang the next one from it. And the bailout vote is coming up now.)

Meanwhile, perhaps a few of us jumping the gun while calling the congresscritters to lobby against the bailout may convince them that bailouts are NOT the thing to be on record voting for (either because they're a bad idea, or because the jig is up).

I bet if Ron Paul had quietly gone away after the Primaries we would not be seeing him as much in the mainstream. He didn't go away and kept up a high profile, especially with the Rally for the Republic, and now newscasters are bringing him onto their shows. That rally is paying dividends for the revolution.

I have my suspicions..
