Ron Paul vs Ben Bernanke 24 February 2010

Congressman Dr. Ron Paul questions Ben Bernanke about $12 billion in cash. Ron Paul said “a lot of cash was passed through — and a lot of people suppose it was passed through the Federal Reserve — when there was a provisional government [in Iraq] after the 2003 invasion. That money was not appropriated by the Congress as required by law.”

“Congressman, these specific allegations you’ve made are absolutely bizarre, and I have no knowledge of anything remotely like what you just described,” Bernanke responded.
