I just got so engrossed while listening in my office to this speech Ron Paul gave to thousands of people in Oklahoma City that I forgot I was boiling eggs in the kitchen and it wasn't until all the water boiled away and I heard some of the eggs exploding that knocked off the lid onto the metal stove top that I realized what I'd done and went to turn the stove off. Oh well, I was going to make deviled eggs but I think I can at least make egg salad with them. Next time I'll bring a timer with me into the office.

Here's the speech where he talks about the monetary system and the mischief going on at the Federal Reserve and loss of purchasing power of the dollar; the real reason 9/11 took place; liberty, tyranny, the drug war,the real inflation rate and unemployment rate, the fact that civil liberties have been taken from us along with privacy rights ....and about the president taking the liberty to use the military against American citizens in the National Defense Authorization Act; detain them indefinitely while denying them the right to an attorney and even worse -- assassinating them in some circumstances without a trial (that he's already done three times).

Of course he talks about FREEDOM and how it brings people together and how the most free societies are also the most prosperous.

In the end he mentioned how many Democrats who come to hear him talk to him after his speeches and whisper to him that they are democrats and are going to register Republican so they can vote for him in the primaries and he chuckles and tells them,"Isn't it nice that not all Republicans are alike" .

That is a great RP speech, too bad about the wind in the mic though.

The talk about the trillions and the Fed reminded me of an interesting development recently possibly "involving" the Fed, that might be worth following, if only for curiosity sake. This is the House of Lords Feb 16.

People are saying about 2,000 showed up at that speech. Funny how Paul draws such massive crowds, and Romney has such a pathetic showing yet is the frontrunner.

I don't get it.

Oh Gosh! Hearing about all these banking scams that will end up on our shoulders is getting tiresome. When are we going to put our collective foot down and not tolerate it?

Well shining the light on it helps hopefully. However, I agree people have to get involved because the corruption is so bad that it is akin to the foxes guarding the hen house.

On the bright side I think there are some internal struggles going on in the proverbial "den of vipers". Might be popcorn worthy... LOL.
