I assume "he" refers Ron Paul.On the Duncan Hunter thread.I'll also assume he did.

In the meantime,just look at what a search of Thomas for bills sponsored by Paul and by Hunter turn up.

HUNTER

Private Bill; For the relief of Fouad Yousef Hakim Mansour and Saheir Gamil Shaker Mansour.

To vacate further proceedings in the prosecution of certain named persons.

To implement equal protection under the 14th article of amendment to the Constitution for the right to life of each born and preborn human person.

To prohibit Mexico-domiciled motor carriers from operating beyond United States municipalities and commercial zones on the United States-Mexico border until certain conditions are met to ensure the safety of such operations.

To direct the Secretary of the Interior to conduct a feasibility study to design and construct a four reservoir intertie system for the purposes of improving the water storage opportunities, water supply reliability, and water yield of San Vicente, El Capitan, Murray, and Loveland Reservoirs in San Diego County, California in consultation and cooperation with the City of San Diego and the Sweetwater Authority, and for other purposes.

To prohibit a State from charging an individual more than $200 for a permit or license to hunt big game on Federal public lands within that State.

Amendment prohibiting the use of funds to participate in a working group pursuant to the Security and Prosperity Partnership.

PAUL

Expressing the sense of Congress that the President should implement Recommendation 9 of the Iraq Study Group Report.

Amending the Rules of the House of Representatives to ensure that Members have a reasonable amount of time to read legislation that will be voted upon.(What a novel concept!)

Proposing an amendment the Constitution of the United States relative to abolishing personal income, estate, and gift taxes and prohibiting the United States Government from engaging in business in competition with its citizens.

Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States to deny United States citizenship to individuals born in the United States to parents who are neither United States citizens nor persons who owe permanent allegiance to the United States.

To provide greater health care freedom for seniors.

To limit the jurisdiction of the Federal courts, and for other purposes.

To restore to taxpayers awareness of the true cost of government by eliminating the withholding of income taxes by employers and requiring individuals to pay income taxes in monthly installments, and for other purposes. Sponsor: Rep Paul, Ron [TX-14] (introduced 9/19/2007) Cosponsors (None)

You'll never get people to back your candidate by pointing out to others how bad the rest are.I'm sure Duncan Hunter stands for good things,but he blew this one.And it's no small matter,as far as I'm concerned.The notion that we have to pay taxes,the benefits for which will be doled out according to some poitical ideology,is something the democrats do.

The republicans learned this lesson from Newt Gingrich and his cohorts,and now we have a republican congress and administration that knows the joy of spending taxpayer money to win elections.

You might note that aside from the mention of the 14th amendment in one of Hunter's bills,the subject matter is temporal.Many of Paul's bills directly address the serious systemic problems with our government.

All the bill titles I got from Thomas,but the links were identical.Best to go to the homepage,browse bills by sponsor,etc.-http://thomas.loc.gov/There were only seven bills from Hunter and over 50 for Paul.
