The claims aren’t “outrageous” at all. Paul asked legitimate questions, such as the Watergate angle, which have been raised by mainstream historians and journalists for decades. Some of us don’t treat Ben “socialist” Bernanke as a god.
If you want to paint Bernanke as a socialist, there are better ways to do it than by asking him if he loaned money to Saddam Hussein.
Where's the shrimp?
