Presidential candidate Ron Paul, who has long called for abolishing the Federal Reserve, said he now looks “like a moderate” compared with GOP rival and fellow Texan, Gov. Rick Perry, who said it would be “almost treacherous, or treasonous,” if the central bank increased the money supply before the 2012 election.
Referring to Mr. Perry, the Texas congressman told supporters at a campaign event in Concord, N.H., Wednesday that “He realizes that talking about the Fed is good, too. But I tell you what: He makes me look like a moderate.”
Mr. Paul added, “I have never once said [Fed Chairman Ben] Bernanke has committed treason.”

ditto.
Uhm no.
Parry is demonstrating your lunacy.
Luv most of your ideas but they are unworkable in this world.
Enjoy your retirment years.
Perry said raising money supply for “political” reasons would be “almost” treasonous. In fact he is correct if not understating the issue.

Ronnie history
1. Jew hater and Israel hater
2. Iran loving nut who thinks they should get the BOMB
3. Blames the US for 9-11
4. 1 of 4 GOPer who DID STOP support the ban on Earmarks because he is the Earmark King.
His last earmark request totaled 134,000,000.
5 Forget auditing the Fed , Lets Audit Ron Paul.
He’s just jealous no one is paying attention to him...
First, it was an indirect accusation of treason, I’m tired of the hype that “Perry accused Ben of Treason...”
Secondly, all RuPaul is doing is trying to see if appearing “reasonable” will get him a few disaffected Perry supporters.
Um, NO, R-U-N Paul, you still look like a loon, act like a loon, and have loon ideas.
I’m still wondering what happened to Ron Paul’s promise to call the Fiend Chairman Bernanke before his committee to demand answers to the Fed’s policy of printing trillions of dollars Bob.
Spoken like a true 'Rat spin artist. Governor Perry never said Bernanke committed treason.
I spend quite a bit of time arguing with liberal musicians on a musician forum website.. they just LOVE Ron Paul and there are at least 30 to 50 of them, I am currently debating. kind of tells you something.
dems love the guy.
Ron Paul makes Ron Paul look like Harry Reid.
Ron, believe me, there is no one and nothing on this earth that can make you look like a moderate.
This could be a play to pitch the fiscal conservative Paulites to the Perry camp. There will be at least two more declared GOP candidates that pitch over to the Perry camp in the few months to come. A consolidated front with 3 in the primaries cuts risk.
RonnieBoy is not the sharpest knife in the drawer.
Yup, what a phoney.
HA!
and you really don't need any help in doing that!
