Isn't it the best shot we've got? What is the alternative? Allow them to keep going totally unfettered?

I've been trying to find this particular vote and found that HR 1207 was still in committee.
However, according to Wikipedia, it was amended to HR 3996 which was then itself amended to HR 4173: Restoring American Financial Stability Act of 2010, better known as the Wall Street Reform bill.
It sounds like you got your excerpt from prisonplanet.com which states HR 1207 but doesn't say when the vote took place or which bill they were exactly voting on. The entirety of the Paul bill didn't make it to the final act but an audit of the fed did make it into the act, even though it's one time. I'm still looking for that section of the act though.
Goals of Monetary Policy The goals of monetary policy are spelled out in the Federal Reserve Act, which specifies that the Board of Governors and the Federal Open Market Committee should seek “to promote effectively the goals of maximum employment, stable prices, and moderate long-term interest rates.” Stable prices in the long run are a precondition for maximum sustainable output growth and employment as well as moderate long-term interest rates. When prices are stable and believed likely to remain so, the prices of goods, services, materials, and labor are undistorted by inf lation and serve as clearer signals and guides to the efficient allocation of resources and thus contribute to higher standards of living. Moreover, stable prices foster saving and capital formation, because when the risk of erosion of asset values resulting from inflation—and the need to guard against such losses—are minimized, households are encouraged to save more and businesses are encouraged to invest more.
This may be the case look at Al Gore with the global warming hoax failing. He now has this sex scandal incident come into the public view.

Go to hell Kucinich. And all the others.
something has happened to Kucinich.
It all started with the Obamacare bill.
He was against it originally, then he switched
his vote and did an interview about it and he
was pale as a ghost like he was scared
of something. I don't know if he was bought
off or either somebody has some blackmail
dirt on him they were gonna expose if he didn't
vote the way they wanted him to. He did it again
in this vote. Voting against the audit.
Kucinich !!! What do they have on you???
Are you being blackmailed to sway your vote??
What's the problem ???
Is congress in Washington being blackmailed ???
Including Obama ???
WTF ????
The FED is just a ponzi scheme and if we were to practice Fractional Reserve Lending we would be thrown in jail for fraud.

Ben Shalom Bernanke claims that an audit would impact the FED's decisions concerning monetary policy.
Here's the FED's stated monetary policy straight from the Fed's Website:
Goals of Monetary Policy The goals of monetary policy are spelled out in the Federal Reserve Act, which specifies that the Board of Governors and the Federal Open Market Committee should seek “to promote effectively the goals of maximum employment, stable prices, and moderate long-term interest rates.” Stable prices in the long run are a precondition for maximum sustainable output growth and employment as well as moderate long-term interest rates. When prices are stable and believed likely to remain so, the prices of goods, services, materials, and labor are undistorted by inf lation and serve as clearer signals and guides to the efficient allocation of resources and thus contribute to higher standards of living. Moreover, stable prices foster saving and capital formation, because when the risk of erosion of asset values resulting from inflation—and the need to guard against such losses—are minimized, households are encouraged to save more and businesses are encouraged to invest more.
And the FED's Charter in summary is:
1. “to promote effectively the goals of maximum employment"
2.stable prices,
3. moderate long-term interest rates.”
With Real US Unemployment between 16-20%,
And the Dollar actually worth 4 cents compared to the Gold Backed Dollar of 1913 due to excess printing and resulting inflation year after year.
I'd say that the FED's monetary policy hasn't worked all that well !
An audit of the FED would hopefully wake up the American population as to the reality of the extent as to how we are OWNED by foreign investors. And that our Income Taxes keep the wealthy Ruling Class RICH !
