(Reuters) - Persistent Federal Reserve critic Representative Ron Paul plans to hold a hearing on the U.S. central bank's emergency loans to the branches of non-U.S. banks, his spokeswoman said on Saturday.

"I was surprised and deeply disturbed ... to learn the staggering amount of money that went to foreign banks," Paul said in a statement.

"These lending activities provided no benefit to American taxpayers, the American economy, or even directly to American banks," he said.

Yeah, I liked that. Drudge has THREE articles in a row in the left column, 2 of which name Ron in the title, and the 'sandwiched' article of which refers to Ron in the body, and the fed lending.

And then there is an article mentioning Rand's Iowa trip in the center column.

Possibly not coincidentally, on the right column, mid way down, Drudge mentions that last month it had its all time record for internet hits.....

Reward this behavior with clicks, folks!
