• Another Fool’s Errand

  
  Red Tory v.3.0 — Authority: 479
  So much for the naïve idea of “hope and change” that for just a brief while seemed so very promising at the time the White House was being fumigated last January. “Patience ebbs” indeed. Some might still hold out some faith in Obama, but I see little reason why they should. For a preview ...

  zero hedge — Authority: 753
  Ben Bernankes low-road approach of taking the Feds "noble mission" of bailing out Wall Street at any and all costs directly to the people seems to have come at curiously opportune time, a mere week ahead of his December 3 Senate Banking Committee hearing for his second 4 year term nomination. It also seems to have ...

• Here is a little truth from Congressman Ron Paul’s book “End The Fed” .

  
  InvestmentWatch — Authority: 156
  When you think about it, debasing the currency is counterfeiting. It steals value from every dollar earned and saved. It robs the people and makes them poorer. It is the absolute enemy of the workingman. It transfers wealth from the middle class to the privileged rich. Diluting the value of the dollar by increasing ...

  Delaware Way — Authority: 147

• On Whores

  
  ChrisWeigant.com — Authority: 419
  Because some in Washington have apparently latched onto these terms either as a favorite insult to hurl, or as a faux-controversy (while giving Oscar-worthy performances of having the Victorian vapors over hearing the words). Following close behind are charges of "sexism" and "insensitivity" and probably a few other ...

• Cloture Reform

  
  Red Tory v.3.0 — Authority: 479
  Long overdue and much needed. Along with his co-sponsorship of Ron Paul’s bill to audit the Federal Reserve (HR 1207 and S 604), this seems like another winning issue for Grayson.
