U.S. Rep. Alan Grayson, the self-styled progressive Democrat from Orlando, would seem to have little in common with U.S. Rep. Ron Paul, a libertarian Republican from Texas who ran for president last year. But they both share a deep-seated mistrust of government secrecy in general and the Federal Reserve in particular.
Grayson was elected to Congress last year just as the Fed was parceling out the better part of $700 billion to U.S. and foreign banks considered at risk of failure, as part of the Bush (and Obama) administration's response to a worldwide financial crisis. And even as he began trying -- without much success -- to find out from the Fed why some banks got the money they did, Grayson heard about a years-old Paul proposal to authorize the Government Accountability Office to audit the Fed.

A worthy bill.
Too bad Paul didn’t see backing the troops in Iraq as a worthy effort too.
Grayson is about as liberal as they come. He’s ga-ga over Obama’s socialized medicine proposal, and wants to jack up taxes hugely.
And because it was Obama that felt it was urgent to have this emergency bailout bill passed, along with every democrat, and not a dime of it was handed out before Obama took office.
Because of these FACTS, any claims by Democrats and the Obama worshiping media, (and fat disgusting people with bad personal hygiene, dress themselves "stupidly" and make up short fictional films of delusional conspiracy theories) that Obama "inherited" this problem from Bush is full of it.
While theyre at it...lets see if they can also audit this...
