Who were the 16 that voted against it.

Any takers that one GOP presidential candidates might be one of the 16?

Can you tell me where the US Constitution, which you claim Paul is so feverishly defending, allows a Congressman to earmark fund? To hide those earmarks from Public Scrutiny?

Yet Dr Paul has defended earmarks “as a necessary tool of the Congress”.

So it seems your “Strict Constitutionalists” is a fraud who merely mouths nice sounding rhetoric the political fringe wants to hear while being just another good old boy Politician in DC.

Sorry not falling for your attempts at diversion. YOU answer some questions ONE time instead of pulling your usual trick of simply posting and reposting your absurd questions.

HOW AND WHAT would a Paul administration DO? NOT slogans, real live documented, with links, ACTIONS Paul has claimed he would do. POST them.

If you only had a fact.

Nice sounding retoric and slogans don’t cut it. WHERE is the evidence? Perhaps you need more time?

Very well, I will even help you out since you seem incapable of doing responding with anything resembling a rational response.

The reason the USA is involved in the ME is because we are economically dependent on the free flow of oil from that region. We cannot allow any one nation, like Iran, to dominate that region.

Iran is building up it military forces and seeking nukes so that it can dominate that region. Once it gets nukes can simply bully their neighbor oil rich region into following it’s lead on oil policy.

If we were to follow Paul's Neo Isolationist dogmas, the USA be seen by the local powers as an unreliable ally would could be counted on to run away the minute the Iranians rattled their sabers. The region nations would simply make a accommodation with Iran at the USA's cost

So what would Dr Paul do to reduce our dependence on Foreign Oil. DO NOT tell me what YOU think he will do. Post FACTS with links that document what Dr Paul says he would do. Not what OTHER people claim Paul would do. What PAUL has said.
