Are you kidding? Small government? In a Ron Paul administration, the printing costs for press releases alone would run into the billions!

Actually, given that Ron Paul is the only Congressman who regularly returns a substantial portion of his Congressional office budget to the US Treasury every year (as a matter of principle, just to save the taxpayers a few hundred thousand dollars in any way he can), I was surprised when his Political Director told me that they are contemplating ONE "extraordinary expense" upon his accession to the Presidency...

...for several entire boxes of Veto Pens.

And then there will be the Castroesque speeches. Maybe if he has a good VP...we know what happened to William Henry Harrison...

So that's where those pens turned up!
