Alan Grayson is a Harvard Law grad who just began his political career after winning his election in Florida for the House of Reps. Grayson has been RELENTLESS in his first 5 months on hounding those in the Federal Reserve. We need to start getting his name out more as a supporter of our cause!

"On January 13, 2009, during his first hearing as a member of the House Financial Services Committee, Grayson questioned Federal Reserve System Vice Chairman Donald Kohn on the disposition of the $1.2 trillion in taxpayer funds that the Fed had lent as part of the 2008 bank bailout, asking how much money had been given to specific institutions, such as Credit Suisse and Citibank, and what collateral had been secured in return. Kohn disclaimed specific knowledge of which specific firms had received funds, but went on to state that he did not feel that this was information that should be available to the general public, as firms might refuse bailout funds if it became generally known that they were receiving them.Grayson replied, "Has that ever happened? Have people ever said we won't take your $150 billion because people might find out about it?" He went on to question the authority of the Fed to make such a decision without consulting Congress."

Here are a few videos of him spanking some people from the Fed.
