Watch as Ron Paul mumbles something about the Constitution then changes the subject to Rick Santorum.
Doug Ross has a great post on Ron Paul’s hypocrisy:
. . .Among Paul’s earmarks are boondoggles like $38 million to “encourage parents to read aloud to their children”, $18 million for a light rail study, $4 million for a “Trails and Sidewalks Connectivity Initiative”, $11 million for an ACORN-like “Community-Based Job Training Program”, $2 million for a “clean energy” pilot project, and many, many more.
This egomaniac holds himself up as the bastion of fiscal conservative purity after he loads bills with earmark pork (almost $400 million in FY 2010 for his district) only to turn around and vote against the bill — knowing it would pass — to reap the best of both worlds.
