The Washington Post reported today, 9/19,
"Late this morning, Bernanke and Paulson convened a conference call to brief more than 100 House Republicans on their plans, with the two administration officials speaking to the group for 45 minutes. According to one participant in the call, Bernanke and Paulson laid out a "strong and serious" case for how dire the financial situation is. However, the participant said, the duo were "vague in detail" and left many skeptics among the Republicans, who have grown increasingly frustrated with the administration's departure from free-market principles and soaring costs to taxpayers"
I'm afraid I know what the answer already is, but does anyone know if Ron Paul was allowed to participate in this conference call?
I'd sure like to hear him describe what they were saying...
