Amid the ongoing lies, posturing, and fleecing of the public during the the latest and greatest bailout of the Wall Street criminals, Congressman Ron Paul stood firm and for the people and sent a blistering op-ed to CNN today.

As usual, Dr. Paul has nothing nice to say about the big banks, the private "Federal Reserve," and his inept and cowardly congressional colleagues.
It's been a long time since we've truly been in such an "info war." On one side, we have true patriots like Dr. Paul, former Deputy Treasury Secretary Paul Craig Roberts, Bob Goodman of International Forecaster, and a few others telling the truth. We're in a horrific financial crisis, heading towards Depression, and the bailouts will help no one but those who caused the banking collapses in the first place.

Then of course we have the know-nothing shills on Fox, CNN and everywhere else saying this is the only way to go. We have multi-multi-multi millionaire author Suze Orman running around saying we should have bailed these crooks out even sooner. Yeah, well, if we all had sold tens of millions of books with trendy, substance-less advice on personal finance to a bunch of well-meaning fools, we wouldn't be worried about the fallout of this so-called rescue either, Suze.

And we can't forget our fearless Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson. He's throwing around a lot of empty and rhetorical blame (at everyone but himself and his crook buddy Ben Benanke), while these two treasonous pieces of garbage call for "immediate action" on $700 billion more in golden parachutes to a bunch of robber barrons.

This after last week's insane pronouncement that Congress has no authority in any of this.
Can you blame Hank, though? After all this is a guy who is no doubt deeply involved in all of this. He headed Goldman Sachs for seven years before coming over to the Treasury in 2006. Hmm???
