In a way, on this one, Paul DOES have a point. There is a lot of military spending that’s nothing more than home-district pork for certain Congresscritters. Defense spending should be judged on what’s needed for the overall defense of the interests of the United States, but a lot of times, it really does end up being corporate welfare, or vote-buying.

Something Paul knows well. I believe his excuse is, better in the home district than in Washington.
