An idiot from a “9/11 Truth” group cornered Ron Paul recently and asked why he hasn’t “come out about the truth about 9/11.”

Paul’s answer: he has too much to do, and he can’t handle the controversy.

This is the guy whose influence is growing in the GOP, to the point where all 178 Republican members of the House have signed as cosponsors on his bill to audit the Federal Reserve.

Troofer: Can I ask you a question? OK… If we’re going to audit the Fed, don’t we also have to audit the IMF, given they’re connected?

Ron Paul: Well they’re not under the Fed. But, they, they, what you’ll do is expose connections. We have a, a document that shows that the Federal Reserve went to the IMF, made the IMF pay interest to a private bank that made a loan and they were going broke. So, it’s very much involved. The audit … you would dig up a lot of shenanigans because that’s one thing they don’t want us to know is all their arrangements with foreign governments, foreign banks and international banking organizations. We wouldn’t audit everything the IMF does, but every time the IMF had a dealings with the Federal Reserve, we would have that.

Troofer: OK and one more thing. Why don’t you come out about the truth about 9/11?

[Pause…]

Ron Paul: Because I can’t handle the controversy. I have the IIF, the Federal Reserve to deal with, and the IRS to deal with. Because, uh, no I just have work— too many things on my plate. Uh, because, uh, I just have too much to do.

Troofer: All right, thank you sir. Thank you very much.

Ron Paul: OK. OK.
