PegnVA: it was intellectually dishonest, let alone an obfuscation of high order type of "interview." Ask yourself the reaction that it fostered in you. Aren't you the least bit suspicious that Tim Russert was able to manipulate you in this manner?

Earmarks are a ploy or a tool for returning appropriations to Congress and removing it from the unconstitutional seizure of the executive branch, e.g. the president. Now often earmarks are a launch pad for pork barrels, but one does not necessarily lead to the other. In fact, it is one of the many duties of a congressional representative toward his/her constituents. It figures that this was all too arcane for Tim "Mr. Potato Head" to grasp. BTW, Ron Paul voted against all earmarks; so he did his double duty.

Ron Paul is on record to be in favor of mandatory term limits. He is also on record that he has not voluntarily opted for term limits apart from a constitutional amendment, as a 1995 Supreme Court case ruled out states imposing such limits. He's also against The IRS, but he pays those taxes and files a 1040. Furthermore, what is the length of those term limits? Do you know? It was/is 20 terms!!!! So what has he violated?

"When in doubt, empty the clip."
