Have a look at http://www.ronpaul.com/ Bernanke,"...an audit of the Fed would constsiute a take over by Congress and threaten the financial system,dollar and economy." So the financial system and economy is not already in a mess? Bernanke is using veilled threats to stop transparancy.

Over 55% of Congress now want an audit of the Federal Reserve and Pericles has the audacity to call it all lies.

its a matter of joining the dots

Dear Arjay,

The middle finger actually is the response
that's usually given - out of sheer frustration,
when logic and reason have failed. It's
only used as a last resort - because it's
one message that everyone seems to understand.

You seem to be in denial about your obsession
with the US President - give the man a break.
He's inherited quite a mess, he's in an economic
crisis - he's only been in power since late January ,-
miracles don't happen overnight.

Make your next thread on a different topic if you
want to retain credibility.

And remember:

Laugh and the world laughs with you.
Cry - and they pay to watch!

Arjay, you're sufficiently tiresome without resorting to outright invention.

>>Over 55% of Congress now want an audit of the Federal Reserve and Pericles has the audacity to call it all lies.<<

What, exactly, am I calling "lies"?

I have never objected to the audit, except on grounds of the waste of money it represents.

But you, on the other hand, have been shamelessly misquoting Bernanke, haven't you?

Here's your careful piece of spin:

>>Bernanke,"...an audit of the Fed would constsiute a take over by Congress and threaten the financial system,dollar and economy."<<

That's actually a fib, Arjay.

Because here's Bernanke's statement in full:

"My concern about the legislation is that if the GAO is auditing not only the operational aspects of the programs and the details of the programs but making judgments about our policy decisions would effectively be a takeover of policy by the Congress and a repudiation of the Federal Reserve would be highly destructive to the stability of the financial system, the dollar and our national economic situation."

So as you can see, but tried to conceal, is that the concern is not the audit per se, which is perfectly normal and totally neutral.

But there is clearly an attempt by Paul to make policy judgements on the decisions that have been made.

Even you, I suspect Arjay, can detect a political ambush when you see it.

Or can you?

There's a thought.

60 Minutes recently ran an interesting story about human dna testing.
Its come a long way and will keep improving. Send a sample of your
dna to labs in Iceland in this case, and they can give you a prognosis
of your genetic risk of suffering from a whole whole of diseases,
from breast cancer to Alzheimers.

Interestingly the scientist being interviewed, also mentioned other
observations which they are making. For instance, they are finding
that high risk takers, people who jump out of planes and off cliffs
etc, have common genes which play a role in this behaviour.

Its my belief that one day, what they will find is that the Arjay's
and OUGs of this world, simply can't help themselves. There is
highly likely some genetic predisposition, which attracts these
indiviuals to conspiracy theories like magnets. I can't prove
it yet, but I think that it is highly likely.

Arjay, I read yours and OUGs last posts, about oil pipelines and
bin Laden, frankly these are old conspiracy theories, they've been
on the net for a long time, without any evidence. There comes
a time, when one has to say enough is enough, these posters don't
have a scrap of credibility left, but are simply living in their
own little fantasy worlds.

Rational thought won't work, for they will dream up something else
tomorrow, or read it on their favourite conspiracy theory website.

I'm at the point where I can see little but humour in you two,
for frankly I don't think that anyone but yourselves actually takes
your claims seriously.

allways glad to give you a laugh gabby..[and thanks for giving me one as well..[criminals hardly accept people putting the proof on the web],..some things are just there and stand unrebutted..

[unlike at this post..where we have not only one but three rebutting,..all by vairious forms of selective logic..rather unlikely to rebut the quoted facts..but on a surface level to the casual reader

it must be great to not have a questioning mind..lol..[i wish it was as simple as a genetic trait..but i did a lot of reading to get this angry..admittedly i was angry before that..[and the reading was only to learn..why..i was so angry..about getting sent to jail for letting a plant grow..[but for that i guess i would still be asleep as you lot are]if it wasnt for that wakeup call

its so easy rebutting..without giving valid reasoning..[ridicule and altheimer name calling..is hardly any valid rebuttal...[more like a systemised destraction,..by those emoting..rather than checking out the links

pericuil at least takes the time..to rebut an actual point..noting the first bit is pretty much as quoted..[and that no link to the rest was given..to see if the sumation..equates to the context of the shortened quote quoted

arjay..[as quoted by perculiour]<<..Bernanke,"...an audit of the Fed would constsiute a take over by Congress

pericules quote..<<but making judgments about our policy decisions would effectively be a takeover of policy by the Congress

arjay<<and threaten the financial system,dollar and economy."<<

percul<<..and a repudiation of the Federal Reserve would be highly destructive to the stability of the financial system, the dollar and our national economic situation.">>

That's actually an overtly deconstructive..distortion not a fib,..by who i will let others judge...

as are any other thinkers..free to judge the content of the other limeted..lol..''rebuttall''sss....of the simple facts and links presented here..by various posters

people need a wakeup call...[did any of you predict the collapse..we tried to tell you lot about..long before it began...

well here is the plan for the next stage..[READ PREVIOUS LINKS]..rebut them if you care..[can]
