  • I wish the part where he talks about revoking the Federal Reserve's monetary privileges had been left in this video and not cut out.

  • Everyone in KY should be proud to have such a standout Senator! He is one of the few Senators that have a clue of what is going on. From the full testimony at this hearing (which I saw) most do not and some even pandered to Paulson and Bernanke.

    Who will pick up the tab for the malfeasance of unscrupulous lenders and corporations (Freddie and Fannie Mac) and borrowers -- THE TAXPAYER! Isn't it now great that those who live responsibly have to pick up the tab for those who don't? WAKE UP USA

  • Bernake and Paulson should be burned at the stake for financial witchcraft of Wall St.

  • Thomas Jefferson was spot he wrote: I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. Already they have raised up a monied aristocracy that has set the government at defiance. The issuing power (of money) should be taken away from the banks and restored to the people to whom it properly belongsif we allow the bankers to run roughshod over the republic former republic — our children will wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered.USR

  • Bankers will hang in this generation/life-time, and their puppet 'leaders' (aka henchmen) with them.
