You can be sure no other person in Congress is more qualified to oversee the politicized Fed than Ron Paul, period. He should be the next chair of the subcommittee that oversees it and he should lead the discussion for the introduction of a modern gold standard.

Youthful Success vs Aged Failure
The GOP is doing a good job of putting forward freshmen in leadership positions in the House.

The […]
Obamacare Repeal in Action

Out of the Hole
Obama: I told you I’d dig us out of the hole Bush got us in…and look the economy is booming!!
Nancy Pelosi Has Got to Go
Nancy Pelosi has directly presided over the worst recession since the Great Depression. Unlike Barack Obama, Pelosi doesn’t have the benefit of claiming it isn’t her fault.
