I like Ron Paul but he disappointed me when he added his own earmarks to the last spending bill

"I like Ron Paul but he disappointed me when he added his own earmarks to the last spending bill"In case you hadn't noticed, he regularly does this, and then votes "no" on the bills.
His reasoning goes thus: "Washington is taking so much of our money, that I think we should ask for some of it back."
So whether you agree with this or not, that is what has been happening.

How did he vote on the Bill?
Earmarks wouldn't matter a darn thing if more Congress Critters voted AGAINST the Bill.

...I too, disagree with Paul on some issues, but I agree with him on many. He is the most principled statesman we have. Bravo, Mr. Paul...
