You figure out what clause of the Constitution enumerates the spending in question.

And you'll get right back to us when you see he's

A) voted in the affirmative for any of the projects and
B) where it is in the Constitution he's not supposed to represent his constituency by passing along requests for the government's ear.

But keep on harping eh?

Are your seriously suggesting that it is okay to do everything NOT listed in the Constitution?

Whether he votes for the bill or not makes no difference. A spending bill will pass with his pork on it. How stupid are you people?

“B) where it is in the Constitution he’s not supposed to represent his constituency by passing along requests for the government’s ear.”

Since Ron Paul only believes that things specifically enumerated in the Constitution can be Constitutional, then it follows that ‘passing along requests’ is un-Constitutional.

You may naively believe all the excuses Ron Paul feeds you but we are NOT buying it!!! Ron Paul is part of the pork problem in Congress whether he votes for it or not. It would not be there for others to vote on IF Ron Paul had not introduced the spending measures.
