Yes!!! You can't make this shit up haha.
bad article. It made it sound like RP was constantly interrupting him. He did so only once .. and apologized for it. The rest was simply back and forth banter.
I like the video link it had of the entire questioning.

Would be nice if Drudge mentioned his name, but who won't click it?
Most excellent! What a great read, and the video was icing on the cake. :)
On Forbes.com it says - In a combative exchange with the libertarian congressman, the Federal Reserve chairman may have landed the best punch. Continue »
BERNANKE SCHOOLED
Wow, I've never seen Ben Bernanke that nervous before! AMAZING line of questioning from Dr. Paul.
"Tradition" is what Ben Bernanke calls the US Government holding gold reserves. LOL
The condensed version:

I've watched that video several times and crack up at "it's a tradition" hahahaha... priceless.
OMG that last 35 seconds of that video made my day. That was hilarious! I'm gonna watch it again.
I never say it. Never, ever. But I must indulge:
PWNED

Hannity talking about this right now at the start of show!
EDIT: over now. He brought up the snowball incident once again for some reason.
It seems like everything Hannity and Limbaugh talk about is driven by what is on Drudge Report at the moment.
Hannity won't live that down! It was funny the first couple times he mentioned it, its getting pretty old now.Quote:

Bernanke told the House of Representatives financial services committee that the strength of gold reflected "global uncertainties" and worries that the global economy faced a major crisis.
Under questioning, Bernanke also said "tradition" dictated that most central banks held large quantities of gold bullion in reserve, rather than another asset such as diamonds.
What's funny is Michael Savage's impersonation of Hannity. What's it that he calls him? "Wall Banger" LOL...
Yes I noticed that too. Really nice looking suit and fits his white hair very well. He looks good!Quote:

And since when did 21st century American gov't care about tradition? Seems to me the establishment does everything it can to flout tradition.
This is just too great, and is gonna be EVERYWHERE. The timing couldn't be more perfect, either.
This may have just won Ron Paul the GOP nomination.
I think they did that so people who aren't interested in Paul would click, and would then be taken to a pro Paul article. Good strategy!Quote:

With Bernanke's 5-second pause and subsequent "no....." just before that (Bennie looked like a teenager lying to his parents after being confronted about something).Quote:

I've never seen Ron Paul laugh at someone before, but Bernanke's statement was so ridiculous Ron Paul actually let out a little "Are you fucking kidding me?" chuckle.
