Senator Bob Corker (R-TN) was on the radio today prior to some of his townhall meetings and said that "an audit of the Federal Reserve has nothing to do with spending".

What a tool.

[HOLLYWOOD]

Corker, like Judd Gregg, and many others are on the "Friends of the FEDERAL RESERVE" VIP program.

Guaranteed current power now and wealth and riches in the afterlife of the US Senate.

That's why we call them Puppets & Prostitutes

[Brooklyn Red Leg]

Someone should have crammed that mic down Corker's throat. Douchebag. :mad:

Some people just don't get the damn connection.

Some people just don't get the damn connection.
He gets the connection, but if you go to www.OpenSecrets.org you'll see his largest donor sector is the banking industry. Imagine that :rolleyes:

[CableNewsJunkie]

Am I the only one that finds dark humor in this type of willful ignorance?

They don't even realize they're digging their own graves.

[aclove]

I think they believe they're digging OUR graves, but that they themselves will be taken care of and immune when the collapse comes.

[Humanae Libertas]

Time for him to go too.

[FSP-Rebel]

Another repubic that needs to be crushed, figuratively of course.

[tnvoter]

Blimp.

This is quite sad, and yes, time to find his replacement to support.

[Matt Collins]

Apparently there was some chanting of "End The Fed" at his Knoxville Town Hall Meeting today. I'm trying to get the audio / video for it.

Bailout Bob has to go

Corker is a prime target for a tea-party primary challenge.

I'm not old enough, and there is really only person out there who has a chance of beating Senator Corker. We just have to be able to convince him... more on that later :)

Fred Thompson?

Fred Thompson?
HA HA HA.... u a funny guy :p

[Brian4Liberty]

All I see Corker saying is that he's doesn't want the politicians to be telling the Fed what to do in terms of setting interest rates. On the surface, who disagrees with that? Of course he is just using that to defend the status quo and the existing Fed. Certainly a system of competing currencies would not be "directed' by the Congress either. Has anyone called him on that?

real questions for bob


Do you believe that the federal reserve system has worked, and is the most optimum economic system for the American government to be able to protect the live liberty and property of the people??? Yes or No?

Do you believe that Fiat money is a better system than a gold or commodity backed currency? Yes or No?

Do you believe debt is the optimum backing for a nations labor and legal tender? Yes or No?


Then follow up the argument wherever it leads

Exactly.

[jmdrake]

It's funny. In the clip Corker admits that the recent federal reserve move is bad for the economy and leads to more private debt, but somehow he thinks it doesn't have anything to do with more public debt. What a moron.
