I love RP...he is my hero...but you are right...he should trim down his long winded approach to his questioning. I think perhaps he is thinking that by giving these long explanations to the questions that the general public watching will start to absorb what he is and has been saying for a very long time now. I imagine a scene from the movie "Back to the Future" where Biff(RP) knocking McFly(us the people) in the head saying "Hello McFly!...Hello McFly"......Like WAKE THE HELL UP! look at what is going on around you.

Who is buying up all the Gold and Why?

So they can flood the market with gold and the price will crash and any gold backed currency left will collapse.

it will start of with 4x World Currencies then it will be made into 1x world currency

and all the world will be controlled by Them

The world could continue if only 3 things remain viable. These are truely the only thing in the world that has innate value to humanity. Gold will be worthless if everything collapses.

Food/Water
Land to live on
Energy

Ron Paul is a parrhesist.

He speaks the truth but it has no effect. If he had 5.000 heavy cavalry behind him, it would...

Those guys own companies. They borrow money from their companies and never return it. Companies simply write off that debt. When they themselves are bankrupt, government bails them out.

It is very simple. What can you do about it? It is all legal.

If you borrow money from them and not return it, they go after you and, if necessary, kill you - as an example...

What can you do? It's all legal...

Yeah, this is what I was thinking. They are now trying to force the Middle East oil barrons to their knees.

As for gas, well, I never thought I would see it at $1.64!

As I see it... this has already been planned. It's like Georgie was going to ra&e this country of everything he can before he leaves office and do whatever he can to stab Obama in the back.

I see where people are already at Obama and I can't figure out why because it is Georgie/Cheney that has caused this and all the greedy Elitist running the Banks and Wall Street.

Georgie has a smiled smirk why he pats you on the back because he knows the knife is going deep on Jan. 20th.

Watch Georgie on the 20th

If our money was going anywhere it should have come to all of us naturalized Americans who it belongs to and why are we letting Congress get away with doing this?

Are they for we the people? They say they are....hmmmm say one thing do the other.

They know they can pull just about anything they want and get away with it so they do what they want...when are Americans as a Nation going to stand together.....as I see it Georgie has taken our ""GREAT"" Country and IF WE DON'T WORK TOGETHER we might just all be practicing clicking our heels and saluting Hitler this is what the Geogie family has been working on since granddaddy Preston and the Rockerfellers joined forces long ago.

IMO in plain english we're screwed and didn't even get any cake.

Its not just Georgie as you put it. Its ALL of them. Do you really think Obama is going to change anything?

Will he pull out of Iraq?

Will he get rid of the 16 Amendment?

Will he get rid of the FED?

Will he repeal the patriot act?

Will get get rid of Bush's dictoral executive orders?

Will he prevent us from going into Iran?

Will he turn down the use of the remaining $350 Billion dollar bailout?

I mean really I could go all day. The fact is there is no difference between the two parties period. Its a show and people buy into it. Divide and Conquer. Keep the people fighting so they can continue pillaging.

Getting ris of the FED... That'd be a tough jub! Kinda like trying to get rid of your heart. It's webbed so securly in the government that to get ride of it would only be of their own accord. And it would be replaced by a bigger better version of the FED.

I think the only problem Ron Paul faces is the fact that he may be the one bucking the system but when you are in it and are awash in people making these bogus polocies, it's not easy to get change.

RP tried to make too many points in his questioning. Unfortunately, I see a lot of people in this movement who say TOO much all at once. And they lose their audience quickly.
about the video....
Looking at Bernanke's eyes in the video, the way they are slightly closed and his pupils were very dark (big) indicates to me that he was mentally shielding himself from the reality (truth) in his misrepresentation of the facts.
He was absolutely NOT being honest. It's not smug or sneering. It's called hubris!
That guy has Congress and the Citizens of the USA by the nuts and he knows it!....

Getting rid of the Fed wouldn't be hard. But it would need to be done in phases. Slowly get rid of the Fed as you replace it with an institution that is completely transparent and government controlled down to the people who run the machines that print the money. If you really wanted to get technical give the states the ability to print their own money (with transparency and congressional oversight). Make it a similar design but with different pictures and colors. California's 5 dollars would still be worth the same as New York's 5 Dollars.

ww1 and on is due to a line of extremely annoying occultists intentionally fulfilling the bible to rouse a religious world war of some kind. I see religion haters behind this all. Which i do understand why some hate religion, but to directly incite the world through undermining it is wrong. and it sickens me to know there are troops in our military that are nazis (you know hate to the point of total ignorance), there are troops that are lucifarian (sacrifice is no issue). It scares me to think our military has lost its honor and sold its soul to winning unjustly over the weak. And sadly i`see everything center around the monster, 911, economic collapse, ufos, mass outages, total control grids.. its all thanks to a power hungry liar at the end of a rope.

I see two men having a serious conversation. I felt at no point that anybody was making light of what was said. I think its important that Ron Paul is putting out feelers to see what is going on.

mybigunit your right and it will be interesting when Obama gets in. I believe they are all controlled.

The Elitist have control so we need to look not only at the Leaders (the trees) we need to get to the "ROOTS" the Elitist.

When Georgie said our Constitution is only a God damned piece of paper he is right in one way why, because we "allowed them" to get away with destroying everything good..... we all need to stand together and fix it.

We need to bring our Constitution back to the greatness it was meant to be not the piece of paper Georgie talks about.

It sickens me that our President said this about our Constitution and nothing was done about it by "We the People" I include myself in this and I am ashamed......we need to stand together and as you probably know they have prepared for this and are waiting for this and I do believe they are pulling everything in the book to get we the people riled so they can do away with most of us. Heck, you should know the Martial Law is just waiting to be brought forth and the Camps are empty and waiting with Gas just like in Hitler days.

We all know we are in bad times and we all need to OBSERVE everything and that means we need to watch there movements at all times.

We can overcome this if we just use logic and common sense can we or will we do this as a Nation.

Thanks mybigunit S+F.

It wasn't one of Ron's best statements but he still got the important questions out and had that completely guilty looking fool bernake quivering in his boots.

When will the madness end??? Will it??? Please let it stop i'm going slightly insane. The lack of action is terrifying.

MBU I have always enjoyed your threads and posts, keep them coming amigo, mad respect.

Peace

Yeah I saw those two jokers back there yucking it up too and it made me angry. It's like one of two things, either they are just some ignorant loons that have no idea the truth that Paul was speaking, and were oblivious to the fact. Or, they knew full well, and they were mocking him. Either way if they are sitting in that room it means they are in some position of power, and should be called out for behaving like 8 year olds during a time of crisis. Anyone know who these dunces are? They should be made to sit in the corner next session.

That whole 'central banks selling gold' statement struck me as very odd. I can understand that many of the CBs and various funds are selling gold reserves in order to provide liquidity in order to free up credit, but why then did the Saudis and Iranians just buy so much of it?

And why is there very little, if any, physical gold available? You know, right now there is about a 20% premium over spot on physical gold... why is this? I'll be damned if I can walk into the local currency exchange (which advertises "Buy Gold and Silver Eagles here" on the window) and buy any physical silver or gold. It is not possible. They have not had silver or gold since early summer.

hell, I remember last June going all the way down to Wall St. to buy gold. I could not find it anywhere. And even then, the gold eagles were not available... I had to buy Austrian Phils... (fine by me) Oh, and the kicker is that I also had to fill out some Patriot Act form too. Nice!

Lastly, somebody had mentioned doing away with the Fed. It is possible, but there is terrible resistance. JFK tried it by signing Executive Order 11110 on June 4, 1963 which established a silver standard for US Currency. 5 months later Kennedy was killed and silver certificates came out of circulation. No more were printed after that.

Gee willikers... what could have caused that?!

Correct. Here I thought I was the only one who thought it was weird he answered it that way. Then before he really got to finish you had Barney Frank banging the gavel that time was up. I think RP knows whats going on thats why he asked the questions the way he does. He wants them to admit it but they find ways to weasel out of it by twisting words. If they are selling gold where the hell is it? It is hard to find gold right now. Something stinks and I think RP is trying to squeeze it out of them for all to hear.
