This won't do any good unless we turn up the heat on the Senate and make them pass S604, the Federal Reserve Sunshine Act of 2009.

"We are serious about some legislation in this regard," said Frank at a hearing on the bill. "However, some time needs to elapse before certain disclosures take place...we are working together; we want there to be publicity, but we don't want there to be a market effect in the near term."

So Frank wants to delay it until it can be repealed when the heat is off. Even if it can't be repealed, it will be so watered down as to be nearly meaningless. Don't take this far less than half a loaf offering, Rep. Paul. Now is the time to go for a complete x-ray of all of the Fed and exactly who gets my money laundered through it.

“said Frank at a hearing on the bill. “However, some time needs to elapse before certain disclosures take place.”

The Fed can not be opened up, and Ended, quickly enough. It’s been a source of Never ending mischief since its creation.

Delay for Any reason can only be viewed as a distraction in the hope that the bill will get shelved, or so drastically watered down as to be meaningless.
