Would President Obama sign HR 1207, the Federal Reserve Transparency Act of 2009?
Why wouldn't he support this? We want Transparency, right?
So Adam B, What basis in fact do you make the claim that Ron Paul doesn't understand it? I'm guessing that you are against knowing what the Fed is up to, and if the bill is so bad, why does it have majority co-sponsorship? Perhaps you would be happier living in an eagletarian society.
This is the shabby secret of the welfare statists' tirades against gold. Deficit spending is simply a scheme for the confiscation of wealth. Gold stands in the way of this insidious process. It stands as a protector of property rights. If one grasps this, one has no difficulty in understanding the statists' antagonism toward the gold standard

Obama appointed a Fed banker to the treasury. I doubt it.
Don't worry about Adam B. He's one of those people that bashes RP regardless of how well you explain things to him because he is a socialist.

Obama has none, Michelle has the pair interior the family contributors Smoke and reflect practice by making use of the no longer so large Obama, dropping time on Senate hearings on the bonus's to cover the incontrovertible fact that Geithner and Botox Pelosi are cooking up yet yet another TRILLION to waste on their marxist socialistic time table definite we are in a position to and definite we are able to VOTE OUT THE DEMOCRATS IN 2010 and in 2012

Yes he would sign it, under two conditions ONLY tho...
(1) Obama goes water boarding!
(2) Obama gets his dowhackers whipped!
Adam B knows everything about audits & Ron Paul, like just ask him!

It remains to be seen. If the bill passes, we get to see what the Fed is creating all of this money for. If it doesn't, we will wonder what they have got to hide.
Adam B: Ron Paul has forgotten more than you will ever know. Yes, he understands it.

Obama promised transparency and has implemented very secretive policies.
Seems the Libs bashed Bush about secret meetings-but with Obama it is fine.

He definitely will sign it.. Assuming he starts listening to Rush Limbaugh and discovers that the Fed was single-handedly created by Nancy Pelosi to destroy traditional values in favor of a Communist European-like society controlled by the drive-by media..
But ya know he wont!

No, he won't. I suspect the Fed Building is like one of those at Universal Studios--just a set. Look who he chose as his Treasury Secretary--that should answer your question.

The only transparency Obama wants, is the transparency in the thinking of his followers. Other than that, he only gives it lip service.

I don't believe he has had a bill come across his desk, that he did not sign, but the Democrats are the only party allowed to send him bills , so why would you not sign a bill you had custom made in Congress*************

If it is something that would require him to be transparent, instead of just promising it, he would veto it. He's broken his promise on transparency so he wouldn't want to be REQUIRED to keep a promise.
