This is a report written and conducted by the Federal Reserve's Inspector General into allegations of misconduct by the Federal Reserve.

These are the allegations:

-The cash used by the Watergate burglars "came through the Federal Reserve."
-Federal Reserve officials "stonewalled" Congressional inquires about the investigations into the 1970s scandal.
-The Federal Reserve "facilitated a $5.5 billion loan to Saddam Hussein" to help the Iraqi leader buy U.S. weapons in the 1980s.

Obviously the Inspector General of the Federal Reserve found no misconduct of the Federal Reserve.

Here's Ron Paul questioning Bernanke in the 2010 hearing:

Basically, the Inspector says "we can find no evidence" on the allegations.

So a Federal Reserve employee audited the Federal Reserve?

So much for the SELF APPOINTED Federal Reserve's Inspector General

The Federal Reserve's Inspector General revealed the findings of a 16-month investigation into two big Ron Paul conspiracy theories this week, publishing a new report that claims to disprove Paul's allegations that the central bank played a role in the Watergate scandal and helped facilitate weapons loans to Iraq in the 1980s.



It is not clear if Ron Paul, a longtime Fed critic, will be satisfied with the inspector general's version of events, and it's doubtful that the new report will curb his calls to abolish the central bank. We've emailed Paul's press secretary to see what he thinks about the report, and will update when we hear back.


Yeah i dont think this has been Debunked :rolleyes: i am not surprised to see that the Republicans are trying so hard to bring Ron Paul down by creating there own theories against paul.

So what you make of his?

[GeorgiaAvenger]

What are Ron's sources?

[angelatc]

It took them 16 months to work out their position?

[AngryCanadian]

What are Ron's sources?
Former CIA agents i would believe?

[DerailingDaTrain]

So...the private bank did an investigation of itself and came to the conclusion that they were awesome? Too bad the sheeple will believe it.

You know next time I get pulled over for a speeding ticket I'm going to use the Feds way.

An internal audit conducted by myself of my speedomoter shows that I was going exactly the speedlimit regardless of what your radar says.

What's funny is I never knew about the watergate accusation. What about everything else that Ron Paul points out about Federal Reserve shenanigans over the past 100yrs? Debunk that!
