Paul does his job as an elected representative by forwarding on to a congressional budget committee requests from residents or groups in his district to have some of the money, that they paid in taxes, returned to the district. That money is in a federal budget that he voted against because of the unconstitutional spending contained in it.
No win situation for him with you delusional Paul-haters - he forwards on the requests and he's responsible for pork... he doesn't, and he's failing to do the duties of his office.
Add his "surrender" foreign policy...
Just like my personal "surrender" policy I have with my neighbors - I'm a paranoid idiot who "knows" my neighbor is a threat to me (he has guns!), but I haven't went next door and killed him yet, which is allowable under the local version of the Bush Doctrine of Preemptive War that you neocons love so much.
You clowns better hope Dr. Paul is right about foreign policy (hint: he is), because your precious little American Empire is going the same way as the Roman one, and for the same reasons.
You're as confused as Ron Paul. You think earmarks are constitutional. Apparently, you also think it is his duty to ensure that the fedgov continues to spend more money than it takes in. How you justify this nonsense is laughable.
....but I haven't went next door and killed him yet, which is allowable under the local version of the Bush Doctrine of Preemptive War that you neocons love so much.
Neocons? Preemptive war?
No wonder you're so defensive. You're on the wrong forum. Here's what JimRob had to say about anti-war moonbats like Ron Paul:
Hey, if you don't like FR and or our support the war policies leave. Go find a website that supports your unfortunate, short-sighted and misguided antiwar efforts. It's really that simple.
In case you antiwar Paulistas haven't noticed, Free Republic supports the war effort 100%. Many of our chapters protest against the antiwar moonbats either weekly, monthly or whenever the opportunity arises. The DC Chapter has been protesting against the antiwar moonbats EVERY Friday night at Walter Reed for three years.
Free Republic has co-sponsored several cross country caravans and hundreds of rallies in cities all across the country and in DC against the antiwar moonbats and in support of our Commander-in-chief, our troops, the war effort and our Gold Star and Blue Star families, many of whom are FReepers.
When you are supporting antiwar moonbats you are working against Free Republic's mission, hurting our efforts, hurting our families who have lost loved ones or have loved ones involved in the fighting, hurting our troops, damaging their morale, working against our efforts to defeat the enemy, and, in fact, giving aid and comfort to the enemy.
Antiwar moonbats are the domestic enemy. Antiwar moonbats willingly give aid and comfort to the enemy during wartime. In my book, that's tantamount to treason. Ron Paul is an antiwar moonbat. You figure it out. If antiwar moonbats are the enemy and Ron Paul is an aid and comfort supplying antiwar moonbat, then Ron Paul IS the enemy!
If you Paulistas are looking for support on FR for an antiwar moonbat who is giving aid and comfort to our enemies, you're nuts! Free Republic will NEVER support antiwar moonbats!
As far as our official policy on Ron Paul is concerned, it's the same policy we have for his antiwar moonbat allies the traitors Harry Reid, Chuckie Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, Jack Murtha, Cindy Sheehan, Barbara Streisand, Jane Fonda, CodePink, International Answer, et al and their flaming antiwar spam monkeys. Ron Paul and his flaming antiwar spam monkeys can Kiss my Ass!!
Where the hell did you guys ever get the idea that enemy supporting antiwar moonbats would be welcome on FR?
That plain enough for you or do I need to spell it out?

To me, that says all that needs to be said.
Lasts for five hundred years? OK.. another 250 to go.
