WTF: Bernanke holding "town hall" style event at US Army base

Maybe he is giving the troops orders for when they call for Martial Law! The Federal Reserve is a run-a-way train, I think they know they cannot stop the inevitable.

When I read this article, I happened to have mah trusty ole tinfoil hat on, and it did occur to me that the Fed has been singled out among two major protest groups from the left and the right. They're under the microscope more than they've ever been in their existence.

So what, though? What does public approval have anything to do with him?

It’s damage control. Active duty military tends to vote one way: Republican—and based on donations their Republican candidate says END THE FED!

About 30 min ago, CNBC was giving a recap of the Bernanke visit and said that he addressed the possibility of both returning to the gold standard and the outright ending of the Fed. They cited Bernanke having to do so because of the public’s image of the Fed as an institution overall and the lack of support for the Fed exhibited during the debate last night, etc., etc.

Bottom line is this: Since the President of the US nominates the Fed Chairman; Bernanke knows his days are numbered.

Well , I hope someone gave him a copy of End The Fed , he is mentioned

Oh yay. Time to personalize the Fed. Who's willing to bet that Ben's family is currently undergoing a makeover and taking strenuous classes on how to pull the heart strings of the sheep so they can be wheeled out as well. You wouldnt want to end the fed now would you? Hes got a wife, family, including several adorable grandchildren!
