This is silly and a waste of time. The Fort Knox reserve is audited and there’s never been a problem in 70 years there. We’ve got other things to do and why Ron has gone down this path eludes me.

"This is silly and a waste of time'

Agreed. The Audits are on the web for all to see. Ron Paul is just using this as something to rile his base up. I think it's a very dishonest tactic and Ron's focus on the Federal Reserve instead of Congressional spending is a distraction.

Ron Paul (R - Uranus) is arguing that the audits are not dependable, and that we need to spend tax money on bringing in external auditors in to reaudit it.

It is?

Audited?

How often and when was the last time?

And by whom?

If so that is new to me, who considers himself rather knowledgeable of the goings on within our Republic and stays mostly abreast of all current events, as I've never seen ANYTHING in any media re: this issue.

If in fact so, I imagine you can direct me (and any other of us Freepers who are skeptical) to a "Report" which details the amount of Gold on hand?

Are you saying, “I fully trust everything Obama says”?

I don’t and I want every step he takes verified and reverified.
