Cute but no cigar.
What has Paul done is the question?
Voting no on bills he KNOWS will pass, is not doing anything.
He does support foreign aid for palestine (always vote yes) but no one else, I guess that’s something.

If you’re asking what kind of fundamental reforms is he responsible for, I’m not aware of any (though I haven’t researched it). I suppose in that regard Paul is as effective as Michelle Bachmann and Jim DeMint—it would take a lot more like-minded people to be able to outvote not only the Dims but the leftist, establishment Republicans. Unfortunately, we are still a long way from that. If you are a very conservative office holder, who would like the federal behemoth to spend only what is within its constitutional limits, and are surrounded by a majority who will spend any amount they please, voting “no” is about your only option.

Certainly voting “no” to huge spending by the federal monster is better than voting for new socialist programs like MediPill. Or do you disagree?
