Gingrich Goes for Gold (http://www.weeklystandard.com/blogs/gingrich-goes-gold_617167.html)



...

“Part of our approach ought to be to reestablish something Ronald Reagan did in 1981 and that is to have a Commission on Gold to look at the whole concept of how do we get back to hard money.


“We need to repeal the Humphrey-Hawkins Act. We need to say to the Federal Reserve: your only job is to maintain the stability of the dollar because we want a dollar to be worth thirty years from now what it is worth now because that optimizes saving and investment because people know what they are going to back.


“The very purpose of founding the Constitution was landowners and property owners who did not want inflation. And they felt that under the Articles of Confederation they were increasingly getting inflated paper money.

What he says is never what he supports or does.

This is CFR's swing at Ron Paul's supporters, clearly a team attempt to confuse enough voters to get Romney a home run.

Geez, they are now playing a team against Ron. Clearly they feel IS a viable candidate, after all.

Newt is blatantly trying to align with RP supporters because he knows he cant win without them. Now Newty is a gold bug? At the 'U.S. Global Leadership Coalition'? Gimmie a break....As if ANY RP supporter isnt educated enough in politics to know Newt G is a PIMP for the NWO. He couldnt possibly get any traction from RP fans with this move....

Newt obviously doesnt fully understand the Federal Reserve System. It was designed to inflate and crash. Just like all other paper societies throughout history. Mr. Goldrich seems to think he is much smarter than all the other Empires that have tried to stabilize FRAUD.

Newt is a Globalist STOOGE for the NWO. That is the real truth of the matter.

Has anyone caught the absurdity here? Newt--a devious politician at best, advocating 'hard currency'? Isn't the whole point of fiat money that the politicans can spend it in unlimited amounts? All they have to do is authorize raising the national debt, and we can inject more fiat money into the system.

Isn't this a bit inconsistent with Newt's foreign policy? Go to war for Israel? How would you do that in a world where the money is backed by gold? And there were limits to how much you could borrow?

Can you see how Newt is exploiting the ignorance of Americans? Out of one side of his mouth he's preaching responsibility, and from the other side of his mouth he preaches unrestrained irresponsibility? Which is it Newt? Gold as money? Or War for Israel?
