"outcomes not process". This is exactly why the Fed needs to...

be audited. The "OUTCOMES" do to their actions. If the people knew of the process there would probably be an out roar beyond imagination. All responses from the panel in this hearing is hog wash. More distractions and appeasement.

Wow!

Did anyone notice how Allan Meltzer was stumbling over his words (in the last video)?

Its over

1605 central time

We'll crush that Fed yet!

Well done today Dr. Paul.

The Fed will never be audited.

As much as I hope for an audit, the "Powers That Be" will NEVER allow it to happen. The bankers and neocons will arrange a nuke false flag attack on a major American city and martial law declared before they will ever allow an audit. They will not care how many people die. The Fed gets audited… the NWO goes away. Think about it. The audit will happen right after a new 9/11 investigation takes place. I pray that I am wrong.

I am very sorry for being so pessimistic because Ron Paul is my hero and he has done everything possible to make this happen. If the Fed gets audited it will be the greatest accomplishment against evil in human history.

I sort of share your sentiment.

Most here (including me, when you come right down to it) don’t want to hear such things. But we really do have to be prepared for the worst…and prepare our children for the worst.

30-some years of fighting these animals has taught me that we actually have a slim chance of winning. But I also want to be wrong!

What’s constantly on my mind is that I have several nieces and nephews; if nothing else, I’m in this effort to protect them. If I at least try, my effort will not have been in vain.

I'm calling your bluff...

It's going to get audited.

Good triumphs again ...

Your attitude is admirable!

Unfortunately, sheer determination won’t force the bad element to lose.

The panel ??

I'm glad

Ron Paul got it in the committee record's ,That the Fed has never! been Authorized by congress! He did great :o)

Ron Paul is a Giant of a man.

Thank you Dr. Paul for standing tall and true today, as always.

Has this been captured on YouTube.com?

Ron Paul's questioning and commentary?

What was the "outcome" from today's session?
Will this get before the full House for a Vote?

Thanks...

great job Ron!

I think he did very well in the second round :)

Ron Paul

Unleashed !!

What did he just say ??

That was great. A bank with out failure is like a church without sin ??

capitalism without failure

capitalism without failure is like religion without sin. there is no incentive for good behavior. --something very close to that

Galbraith...

And the other protestants on the Federal Panel, are generally less evasive than the Globalists because they realize alot of Fed policy has been extremely flawed...

While the others such as the Rothschilds, think its just business all those illegal acts they were doing....

Zionists have a way of twisting every little crime to look like a necessary thing so even if it really looks bad, they make it look rosy as roses.

i vote we make a youtube video

of just Dr. Meltzer's time, alone.

Anybody catch this guys

Name thats on now ??

Alan Meltzer

Check out his book on amazon. its fabulous.

I'm falling in

Love with this guy..

Thanks !

I will.

I hope...

...you have about a month to get through it.. It's a pretty thick book. ;)

Meltzer

I'm so glad Meltzer is on this panel. He wrote the most detailed I have ever written on the FED. He isn't as free market as myself, but he's very close.

Meltzer

I'm currently in Carnegie Mellon Univ's Hunt Library just yards from Tepper School of Business.

My god, Sanity in the mist of the insane

Dr. Meltzer made so much sense and had pragmatic solutions.

The best defense is good offense... by the FED!

Be advised that the attempt by the Fed friends to increase their power, is the best defense against the increasing support of the Paul HR1207! They are attempting a counter wave front to try to offset and neutralize the support of HR1207. We need to pronounce a clear and resounding NO to more power, but audit as a prelude to the abolishing of the FED entirely!!

The witness thus far have obfuscated both the need to audit as well the clear failure of the Fed since 1913. These facts lead to the urgent need to abolish the whole fraud. No details or factual evidence is given by these ex-spurts, just repetition of the line orchestrated by the Fed some weeks back!

One witness just demonstrated his adherence to the Executive branch with his comment the he 'likes the president's' idea on such and such! Wow, what a recommendation!

They each simply repeat the propaganda mantra of need to increase risk control... the Fed is the "ultimate guardian" of our financial markets?? Give me a big NY break already! Like the fox guarding the hen house!

What obfuscating bilge! It is tiring to listen to these shills, spouting their disinformation over and over. Lunch is no longer appetizing to me!

I Can't Watch This Anymore

Pathetic display for the most part.

Congress will do nothing. These guys are hopelessly corrupt.

Are we going to get a counter argument from this panel?

These people seem to be for the Fed in many ways and may disagree on very minor technicalities. Where are the austrian economists? What do we have to do to get a heavy hitter on our side on one of these panels?

When we get a Austrian Congress....

And start replacing all the Congressman we know can easily be tossed out thanks to our new united media.....We need all the big shots like Schiff to run for Congress!

Then there will be so many counter arguments to the Fed it will be like Sherman and Ron Paul literally multiplied across the board....Keynsians & Austrians arguing against the Fed's clearly opaque systemic problems.

who is this guy with the beard?

he's pretty awesome.

Yes, he was pro.

!

Galbraith..he is the best on the panel

so far!
