1. NATCH!

[Metta]

2. blah, blah, blah. more posturing while keeping people in suffering.

happy karma. What a waste of human incarnation.

3. It will get passed, but it should not be shoved into an appropriations bill

Barney Frank wants it to pass but says we need to consider provisions to reassure the Chinese that the fed is independent so that they don't pull their investments. People like Jim DeMint aren't responsible for governing and thus they can grandstand without having to think about consequences like that right after they waste taxpayer money making sure, "god is welcome in the capitol vistors' center".

4. Protect the Oligarchy at all costs...

The Congress has abdicated their Constitutional responsibilities to the banking cartel known as the Federal Reserve. The Fed is not accountable to the American people, and its sole intent is to increase profits for the insolvent primary dealers.

We need to abolish the Fed, and remove any member of Congress who stands in the way. Starting with Harry 'limp dick' Reid.

I hate Demint, but the fact that Bernie Sanders supports this, and the Dems are shutting it down says alot.

5. He should call for a publication of expenditures in accordance to the US Constitution.

No money shall be drawn from the treasury, but in consequence of appropriations made by law; and a regular statement and account of receipts and expenditures of all public money shall be published from time to time.

This will allow people to do their own audits and see where the money is coming from and going to. That should scare the democrats into doing an audit so they can have control over the process. The last thing in the world politicians want anyone doing is forming their own conclusions.

7. U.S. Constitution

Article I, Section 8, Clause 5. The CONGRESS shall have Power…To coin Money, regulate the Value thereof, and of foreign Coin, and fix the Standard of Weights and Measures.


Says it all for me.

6. This bill brought by Bernie Sanders

with DeMint as co-sponser creates a website listing all banks that have borrowed from the Fed since March 24, 2008, and the amount, terms, and "specific rationale" of the loans. Fed chair Ben Bernanke had told Sanders that publishing the names would make the banks feel stigmatized and potentially reluctant to borrow further. Has enough to pass the House. (Ron Paul's version) We should help our senators along with a nice strong letter that we support it. S 604

8. This private industry that sucks us dry doesn't want you to know

by how much.

[Reform]

9. As was revealed by the findings of the Grace Commissionin the 80's

100% of the revenue from the income tax, is absorbed by the interest on the national debt; none, not one red cent, goes to any of the services people have come to expect from the government (in case you wanted to know who that interest is paid to, it would be those who own the Federal Reserve and the other central banks).

[florida08]

11. Absolutely

So when we say we want our taxes to go for or not something..they're already gone to these central bankers.

10. To set the record straight on the national motto and use of

the "In God we trust" language:

In God We Trust is the official motto of the United States and the U.S. state of Florida. The motto first appeared on a United States coin in 1864 during strong Christian sentiment emerging during the Civil War, but In God We Trust did not become the official U.S. national motto until after the passage of an Act of Congress in 1956.<1> It is codified as federal law in the United States Code at 36 U.S.C. § 302, which provides: "In God we trust" is the national motto".

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_God_We_Trust

The original "motto" or phrase used as a motto was "E pluribus unum."

E Pluribus Unum is Latin for "out of many, one." Sometimes it is translated more loosely as "one from many." E Pluribus Unum refers to the fact that the United States was formed as a cohesive single nation as the result of the thirteen smaller colonies joining together.

The motto E Pluribus Unum was first proposed by the U.S. Continental Congress in 1782, for use on the Great Seal of the United States. The immediate inspiration for the use of this term is generally believed to be Gentlemen's Magazine, which was an important men's magazine published in England beginning in the early 18th century. It was a very influential magazine among the intellectual elite. Every year, Gentlemen's Magazine would do a special issue, comprised of the best of the year's articles, and the Latin term "E Pluribus Unum" appeared on the title page as a way of explaining that this issue of the magazine became "one issue from many previous issues."

E Pluribus Unum on Coins
The first use of E Pluribus Unum on coins was in 1795, when it was used on the Half Eagle ($5.00 gold piece.) The reverse design motif is based on the Great Seal of the United States, and depicts an eagle holding a banner in its beak bearing the motto E PLURIBUS UNUM. The motto was first used on a silver coin three years later in 1798, and apeared on all U.S. gold and silver coinage shortly thereafter. However, E Pluribus Unum's use on U.S. coinage wasn't uninterrupted.

So, E Pluribus Unum was the phrase used on our money in the early days of our Republic. Let's all remember that. "In God We Trust" was much later.
