Let's get this audit done and schedule one periodically. It is obvious to me that Congress' failure to ever audit the Fed caused all sorts of problems.

'“I first want to thank Congressman Ron Paul for his tireless and unwavering dedication to auditing the Federal Reserve,” Broun announced. “His efforts paid off when the House passed his legislation with overwhelming bipartisan support during the 112th Congress.
“This accomplishment in itself marked the most significant stride made toward bringing real transparency to the nation’s monetary policy. Unfortunately, as has become the status quo, the do-nothing Senate failed to act on the bill before the end of the 112th Congress, causing it to flat line,” he said.
His proposal would be the same as Paul’s, for a “full audit by the U.S. Comptroller General of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve and the Federal Reserve banks.”
...
Paul for years advocated a full audit of the Federal Reserve, which routinely shrouds its actions in secrecy.
...
Bernanke said it was the Fed that caused the Great Depression, the worldwide economic downturn that persisted from 1929 until about 1939. It was the longest and worst depression ever experienced by the industrialized Western world. While originating in the U.S., it ended up causing drastic declines in output, severe unemployment and acute deflation in virtually every country on earth. According to the Encyclopedia Britannica, “the Great Depression ranks second only to the Civil War as the gravest crisis in American history.”
...
History records that in 1913 President Woodrow Wilson approved the Federal Reserve Act but later reflected that his actions “unwittingly ruined my country.”
Wilson said that since the U.S. system of credit is concentrated in the hands of a few, “we have become … one of the most completely controlled and dominated governments in the civilized world.”'

How to Stop Obama’s Second Inaugural
Evelyn sent me this suggested letter to our congressmen. Thanks Evelyn.
Bruce
The suggested letter below should be sent at least to your own Representative in Congress and your two Senators. There are others who are not your own Representatives that might be worth sending this to as well.
Honorable Representative / Senator ______________
I would like to bring to your attention one important aspect of your duty that you will fulfill on January 7, 2013. That is the day on which you, in a joint session of Congress, will open and count the votes cast by the Electoral College. Far from being a ceremonial event, our Founders designed it as an important final check on the election of the President.
As you may be aware there have been more than 40 attempts by citizens through the Judicial Branch to discover the answer regarding Barak Obama’s constitutional eligibility to be President of these United States. In nearly all those attempts the courts have ruled that the litigant did not have standing and so the case was dismissed. If citizens cannot discover the answer through the Judicial Branch, our Founders established an additional means of discovery in the Legislative Branch.
As the Court in Robinson v. Sec. of State, et al (the second 2008 McCain Case) described so well, the Constitution, and enabling statutes – clearly set forth the proper procedure for addressing this issue:
“Article II prescribes that each state shall appoint, in the manner directed by the state’s legislature, the number of presidential electors to which it is constitutionally entitled. TheTwelfth Amendment prescribes the manner in which the electors appointed by the states shall in turn elect the president:
“[t]he electors shall meet in their respective states and vote by ballot for President and Vice-President . . . and they shall . . . transmit [their votes] sealed to the seat of the government of the United States, directed to the President of the Senate; — The President of the Senate shall, in the presence of the Senate and House of Representatives, open all the certificates and the votes shall then be counted.”
Federal legislation further details the process for counting electoral votes in Congress. 3 U.S.C. 15. Section 15 directs that Congress shall be in session on the appropriate day to count the electoral votes, with the President of the Senate presiding. It directs that designated individuals shall open, count and record the electoral votes, and then present the results to the President of the Senate, who shall then “announce the state of the vote.” Ibid. The statute provides a mechanism for objections then to be registered and resolved:
“[e]very objection shall be made in writing, and shall state clearly and concisely, and without argument, the ground thereof, and shall be signed by at least one Senator and one Member of the House of Representatives before the same shall be received. When all objections so made . . . shall have been received and read, the Senate shall thereupon withdraw, and such objections shall be submitted to the Senate for its decision; and the Speaker of the House of Representatives shall, in like manner, submit such objections to the House of Representatives for its decision.” Ibid.
The Twentieth Amendment further provides,
“if the President elect shall have failed to qualify, then the Vice President elect shall act as President until a President shall have qualified; and the Congress may by law provide for the case wherein neither a President elect nor a Vice President elect shall have qualified, declaring who shall then act as President, or the manner in which one who is to act shall be elected, and such person shall act accordingly until a President or Vice President shall have qualified.”
It is clear that mechanisms exist under the Twelfth Amendment and 3 U.S.C. 15 for any challenge to any candidate to be ventilated when electoral votes are counted, and that the Twentieth Amendment provides guidance regarding how to proceed if a president elect shall have failed to qualify.
Issues regarding qualifications for president are quintessentially suited to the foregoing process. Arguments concerning qualifications or lack thereof can be laid before the voting public before the election and, once the election is over, can be raised as objections as the electoral votes are counted in Congress. The members of the Senate and the House of Representatives are well qualified to adjudicate any objections to ballots for allegedly unqualified candidates. Therefore, this order holds that the challenge presented by plaintiff is committed under the Constitution to the electors and the legislative branch, at least in the first instance. Judicial review — if any — should occur only after the electoral and Congressional processes have run their course. Texas v. United States, 523 U.S. 296, 300–02 (1998).
I would appeal to you to do your duty and object in writing on January 7th when the Electoral College votes are opened. The reason to object is that Barak Obama does not qualify for he is not a “Natural Born Citizen” as required in Art. II Sec 1. Although the Constitution itself does not define the phrase “Natural Born Citizen” it has been identified by the Supreme Court in MINOR v. HAPPERSETT 88 U.S. 162; 21 Wall. 162 as the definition established in Common Law. The evidence in the Common Law is that a Natural Born Citizen is one who is born to parents who are both American Citizens.
Doing your Constitutional duty would mean giving a written objection to the Electoral College votes as they are counted. Your objection should be based on the fact that Obama’s father never was an American Citizen not at Obama’s birth nor at any time in his life.
Will you step forward and object to the Electoral Votes? I look forward to hearing from you shortly.
Below are links that can aid you with important evidence:
1.Forged Certificate of Birth (www.TinyURL.com/AffidavitObamas-BC-Forged); Sheriff Joe and the Cold Case Posse, proved that Obama/Soetoro is using forged and fraudulently obtained documents to occupy the Office of President
2.Forged Selective Service Registration www.TinyURL.com/ForgedSelectiveService)
3.Fraudulently obtained Social Security # 042-68-4425 (www.TinyURL.com/AffidavitObamasStolenSSN)
4.Unable to pass E-Verify to even qualify for employment in the United States, never mind the Office of President

‘No ma’am’: Letter from U.S. Marine to Dianne Feinstein goes viral
Good for this Marine telling Dianne Feinstein What he thinks of her "gun control." I agree with him 100%. All that controlling amounts to control of us law-abiding citizens, not control of criminals.

"Senator Dianne Feinstein,
I will not register my weapons should this bill be passed, as I do not believe it is the government’s right to know what I own. Nor do I think it prudent to tell you what I own so that it may be taken from me by a group of people who enjoy armed protection yet decry me having the same a crime. You ma’am have overstepped a line that is not your domain. I am a Marine Corps Veteran of 8 years, and I will not have some woman who proclaims the evil of an inanimate object, yet carries one, tell me I may not have one.
I am not your subject. I am the man who keeps you free. I am not your servant. I am the person whom you serve. I am not your peasant. I am the flesh and blood of America.
I am the man who fought for my country. I am the man who learned. I am an American. You will not tell me that I must register my semi-automatic AR-15 because of the actions of some evil man.
I will not be disarmed to suit the fear that has been established by the media and your misinformation campaign against the American public.
We, the people, deserve better than you.
Respectfully Submitted,

"If you are a regular to this column, then you know we have mentioned many times that current events in Washington are very familiar. We’ve seen this movie before. And we have.
For the past four years we have drawn our readers attention to the fact that Obama’s agenda is, in fact, a socialist agenda a form of “Marxism Lite”, if you will. In fact, we have pointed out many times that the Democratic Party, itself, seems to reflect the agenda of the socialist party. We have even, on occasion, suggested the Democratic Party change its name to more accurately reflect its socialist ideology.
The curse of America is its refusal to learn from its past. In fact, more often than not, we refuse to look back for guidance even when compelled to do so by out-of-control events. We pay a heavy price for that reluctance and reticence.
...
I am slowly coming around to the conclusion that America’s financial crisis and Obama’s election and reelection and even the current “fiscal cliff” crisis have been carefully contrived and orchestrated.
Looking at our immediate future, I am now expecting a devastating US monetary collapse probably before the summer of 2013. Why? Because it is the next logical step in the devolution of the United States as a constitutional representative republic."

Obama: Debt Ceiling Not Up for Negotiation
Obama feels free to take expensive vacations at our expense. Why shouldn't we reduce spending instead of raising our credit limit? And unfund some of Obama's expenses? I don't see that he has any say in the matter.

Is your beloved cell phone killing you?
Cell phone manufacturers wish they could transfer their risks to insurance companies, but no insurance company will insure them, even Lloyds of London. In the meanwhile, they are arrogantly forging ahead into bankruptcy, hoping that Congress will bail them out with our tax dollars. Arrogance has worked for Obama so far.

'Lawsuits dealing with RF radiation from cell phones are working their way through the courts now. In California, two workers compensation awards were given to people with brain tumors based on a link between their tumors and their cell phone use in the workplace.
On Nov. 6, an Illinois man and his wife filed a cell phone radiation lawsuit against several mobile phone manufacturers after the man was diagnosed with a brain tumor in his left frontal lobe. The lawsuit filed in the Superior Court of the District of Columbia alleges that years of heavy mobile phone use and exposure to cell phone radiation caused the plaintiff’s brain tumor.
As the lawsuits begin to pile up with no insurance companies to back them, cell phone companies may be relying on the hope that they are “too big to fail.”
“What we have now is a major litigation burden, a vulnerability the cell phone industry has never before been under,” Carlo says. “They’re uninsured for these health risk claims and are already positioning themselves for a congressional bailout, like the savings and loan crisis of the late 1980s. They’ll lose a couple of these lawsuits and once they do, there’ll be an onslaught of new litigation against them.”
Carlo maintains that it would be disastrous for society if the cell phone industry would go under. It is estimated that more than 30 percent of investment stocks in retirement funds are tied to telecommunications shares.
That’s why Carlo believes that Congress will devise a way to bail out the industry.
According to Carlo: “The industry thinks they can afford to continue on with this institutional arrogance, endangering millions of men, women and children because, at the end of the day, they believe they’ll not be held accountable. They think they can continue to manipulate consumers.”'
