Ron Paul is nuts. And Ben Bernanke tells him soto his face.

Yup. The head of the Fed came right out and said what so many of us think: Ron Paul is crazy as a loon. Bernanke told the doddering former presidential candidate that his conspiracy theories are “absolutely bizarre.”

NOTE: IHateTheMedia.com’s editor and administrator have been arguing about this story since last night. The Editor thinks Ron Paul is a complete nutcase, but the Administrator thinks he’s only a bit nutty and good to have around. Where do our readers stand?

  • For goodness sakes we don't even occupy countries to help them keep democracy, we prop up god damned dictators who are willing to play ball with us?!?!? Some of you should look at what we were involved with in Chili years ago. You are sold BS on both the left and the right and you all swallow it up as fact without an ounce of critical thinking.

  • Ron Paul is 100% right on our foreign policy, you people are bat shit nuts. Do you think there would be a massive increase in "domestic terrorism" in this country if say China had military bases all over our country?? If you think not, you're a nut. People don't like our military occupying their country no matter how bad or insane you might think their leaders are. YES there are a small minority of crazy extremist terrorist out there and we should do everything we can to prevent them from killing anyone. If you think all our military occupation over the world has to do with just that, well then you really are as stupid as the politicians and paid mouth pieces like Ann Culture think you are.

  • I think the fact the editor listens to BEN BERNAKE!!! Of all the f--kers in the world... he chooses THAT GUY to listen to???I think that sums up enough.. im not gonna even comment on the idea that Ron Paul is nuts... I know it sure is crazy for Americans to want to know where the federal reserve loans money! Ludicrous...

  • If Ron Paul is nuts then I don't want to be sane. He's literally the one and only politician at the Federal level (that I am aware of) who seems to have a degree of sanity, or at least morality, left.

    Spending our kids and grandkids money--insane.
    Not letting cancer patients smoke marijuana--insane.
    Having troops in 160+ countries worldwide, supporting totalitarian governments, inserting ourselves militarily into the affairs of other nations--insane.
    Subsidizing tobacco farmers and sugar farmers--insane.
    Supporting fiat money with never ending siphoning of value via inflation--insane.

    At what point will people wake up and realize that the current situation is insane, has been insane for a long time, and is getting worse with each passing year? Ron Paul is just telling us that the Emperor has no clothes and yet uninformed people mock him for it. An honest 6th grader could figure it out as long as she took the time to gather some basic facts (which she won't find on NBC nightly news).

  • Ron Paul is a market fundamentalist.

    The guy above me is nuts. But I do agree with him that Rothschild is evil. Rothschild were and they probably still are market fundamentalists.

    Herbert Spencer, who helped influence Murray Rothbard (Ron Paul's favorite fapping material), used to work for the The Economist, Rothschild propaganda.

    At the same time, Ireland was facing a food crisis. In response to the Irish famine of 1846-1849, in which over 1.5 million people died of starvation, The Economist (while Herbert Spencer was working there) argued that for the government to supply free food for the Irish would violate natural law. (because giving free food was just too socialist)

    And guess who's the only person who voted "NO" to Haiti relief?

    Ron Paul = Herbert Spencer = Rothschild

    Last note...there are some corporations out there that are just sheer money-making machines with absolutely no moral compass. When we take the false notion that "freedom" means doing whatever you want despite the consequences and then falsely apply that to large corporations, we set ourselves up for disaster.

  • So far, I love Ron Paul's message to his fellow Congressional colleagues: you're crooked and some of us know you're crooked, and more and more of us are discovering this every day. How long do you think your charade can possibly last?

    Don't blame Bernanke. He's just one of the Rothschild minions who do their bidding, like Obama, Brzezinski, the Bush spawn, etc.

    Paul's message is becoming abundantly clear, too: the word is getting out that our government is a ruse and has been for most of its existence.

    The time to start over is near. When we reach that tipping point, The Great American Cowboy in all of us will awaken from a long slumber, wipe off that rifle, sharpen those blades, saddle up high, and head on down the road for a looooong day's work. . . .

  • Ron Paul is nuts?

    The Thomas Jefferson of our day is far from being nuts. In fact is the only sane person that is Republican in Congress.

    The nuts are the ones that believe it is okay for the Fed to steal your money and keep you as their slaves.

    Only reason Dr. Ron Paul sounds nuts to you SHEEPLE is because of the following.

    "Truth is treason in the empire of Lies" - Dr. Ron Paul

    Dr. Paul speaks the truth but so many of you have been brainwashed by the PSM (Propaganda Stream Media) that you would NOT know the Truth if it bit you on the ass.

    Dr. Ron Paul/Dr. Rand Paul 2012

    "ONLY Doctors WILL HEAL America"

    • It's nutty people like you that really makes one hesitant to give Paul a hearing.

      Bunch of freaks going around complaining about the Federal Reserve as if you're really going to be able to change it.

  • "Our notion that our personal income taxes go to paying for our country’s infrastructure, social services, military, etc. is inaccurate, to say the least. Our personal income taxes first are collected by the US Treasury via the Internal Revenue Service, which sends the funds to the Federal Reserve, which is NOT a federal bank of any sort. The privately owned Federal Reserve, which is owned by the Rothschilds and, to a smaller extent, other banking families, then sends our tax dollars to its own Bank of England, which is located in the sovereign area of London called The City of London. Interestingly, The City of London has its own laws, security forces and military, completely independent of the rest of London and the entire United Kingdom. It is considered the most elite banking and economic center in the western world."

  • I bet Jesus seemed nuts in his time too. People who make a difference seldom seem "Normal". When will the Republican party realize that we conservatives are tired of the Sean Hannity's of our party and are ready to throw our weight behind someone who actually has a soul.

    • I didn't realize Hannity was running for office.

      But hey at least you dont mind determining who has a soul and who doesn't. I guess we need someone to make those decisions.

      • I was referring to the Sean Hannity types in our party. (Excuse me, long night with Jaeger and major car repairs). And I do not mind deciding who has a soul or not. Have you actually listened to Hannity lately? Insufferable.
        We need less John McCain-ism and more Ron Paul.
