I realize politics can be a nasty business, but the fact is what’s going on here is a plain old Borking.

'Borking', -- a verb meaning "to attack a person's reputation and views unfairly".

I agree, the mans reputation is being smeared.
However, fair questions are being raised about his constitutional views on war-making powers, - questions that he has not [to date] answered satisfactorily.

So, - just like Bork, he has brought the whirlwind down on his own head.

The difference lies in the fact that some of Pauls issues are self inflicted.

This is not Borking. Bork was innocent. PaleoPaulie is not.
