Paul was voted earmark king of congress.
He puts these earmarks in budgets, then votes against them, so he can claim “I vote against earmarks (or whatever).
Beck is right on this.

There is nothing “right” about a half-truth. It is just another lie.

Beck is very wrong on this, and is the real hypocrite, because he ignores the structure of the system and the fact that most of Paul’s earmarks cause the funds to go to better purpose than they otherwise would.

Paul is one of very few congressmen that has worked to end all earmarks. That means nothing to Beck.

Paul is not suited to the presidency, but he is tops in congress.
