[George W. Bush]

"he gets it both ways–he votes against all spending, but still manages to bring home some bacon" & "VOTES AGAINST HIS OWN EARMARKS."

It's very very little pork he brings home. In cases where his own earmarks match up with a push from local governments or organizations where RP and many other congressmen submit earmarks, then RP's will get funded along with everyone else's. And that's about all the actual "pork" his district gets. But then, that's not really pork. A Bridge To Nowhere, now that's pork.

Outside a few Paul-haters here at FR, no one believes that bilge about Paul and the earmarks. If you look through LoneStars comments, you can see they didn't manage to sell it to their readers either.

Cannot take anyone seriously who says “our policy is to blame for terrorism”, nor anyone who’d support such a statement, let alone those who’d adopt the DUmocrat plan of CUT, RUN & SURRENDER, snatching DEFEAT from the jaws of victory.

Only thing to do is encourage them not to drink the bong water next time!
