Grayson calls on American public to ‘Unmask the Fed’

[BridgeTheGap]

Florida Democrat U.S. Rep. Alan Grayson wants Americans to help him block Congress from confirming the Chairman of the Federal Reserve to his second term unless he hands over documents relating to the bailouts of financial institutions, including the rescue of Bear Stearns.

In the "Unmask the Fed" campaign, Grayson calls on constituents to sign petitions demanding that Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke "come clean" before senators re-confirm his appointment to the helm of the Federal Reserve.

Grayson wants access to the Bear Stearns rescue paperwork as well as the details of which financial institutions received $1.2 trillion in bailout money, how much each institution received, and what was promised in return. He's also seeking Fed documents that discuss the Bank of America/Merrill Lynch merger, transcripts of Open Market Meeting minutes, and the terms and conditions of Fed transactions not reflected in balance sheets from the past three years.

"he Senate should know who got the $2 trillion the Federal Reserve has lent out over the last two years," the petition read

5. Hell yes

Taxpayers have a RIGHT to KNOW what their money has been USED for and how much went to WHOM.
Unmask the fed yes,and destroy the piggery,expose the associates and the trail of money investigate and expose every little detail of said investigation PUBLICLY, reveal it ALL,down to the last cent. And do not give the feds any place to hide the shame,and the bad deeds .I say, let the world see how shameless they really ARE..Than we the people can decide whether we want the corporate and fed pigs running away with OUR collective wealth anymore. Or we may Confiscate our wealth away from the manipulative pigs their corporate buddies and the politicians,caught with their snouts in the fed trough ,give them jail,Or drag out the guillotine and water the tree of liberty.

It's Plutocracy/kakistocracy that strangles our freedom...
