He's the "taxpayer's best friend"?

You forgot all the subsidies to shrimpers.

You know, a two year old can say “no!” And more consistently, too.

• $25,000 to install security cameras at Fox Run Apartments in Victoria

Yet he voted against awarding a posthumous Congressional medal to the creator of the Peanuts comic strip.

I'm still trying to figure that one out.

Ron Paul IS against all earmarks because he feels they are unconstitutional, except the ones he wants. Those are perfectly constitutional, and ok.

Care to place a bet on how he’ll vote on legislation to eliminate them if he gets the chance?

Help me out here. $5,000,000.00 for a sunken ship?

If that doesn't define government waste, nothing does.

It was a sunk cost.

A total canard. An “earmark” is not a spending increase. None of the above are actual spending votes. The best measure of spending votes is by the National Taxpayers Union and Paul consistently ranks on its honor roll as one of the best....certainly ahead of McCrazy.

Earmarks in my district? Much deserved economic stimulus.

Earmarks in your district? Pork barrel politics of the worst possible type.

It always seems to depend on whose ox is being gored.

He’s a politician.

What do you expect???

Just because a bunch of pseudo-libertarian weed-smoking Troofer nutballs built a Web-based cult around him doesn’t make him better...

Santa Rosa, California, where Charles Schultz lived, is not in Ron Paul’s district. Victoria, Texas, is in his district.

He's apparently the "King of earmarks", but nobody's willing to put up a dime that he'd vote against eliminating them. Imagine that.

I see. A $25 medal for Charles Schulz would be a waste of taxpayer money, but $25,000 for an apartment complex security camera system in his district is a fine use of funds from American taxpayers from all districts.

Got it.
