There is no love lost between them and Paul has indicated that he will not endorse McCain.lawrnk wrote:I think this is good news for the election, and I hope McCain taps him for a post in a better position then he is now. I hope he endorses McCain as well.

Does that mean he won't get the chairmanship of the ways and means committee? Gee, I bet that Ron Paul won't be able to get any pork sent our way either.KBCraig wrote:lawrnk wrote:Then I hope McCain blackballs him![]()
How much more "blackballed" could Ron Paul possibly get in today's GOP?
I find voting no on 99% of everything that comes your way slightly distracting.Liberty wrote:Does that mean he won't get the chairmanship of the ways and means committee?

While those of us in his district apparently find it refreshing.lawrnk wrote:

When 99% of what passes through Congress is flagrantly unconstitutional, I find it highly refreshing.lawrnk wrote:I find voting no on 99% of everything that comes your way slightly distracting.
He introduced a bill in that prohibits the use of federal funding for any part of the TTC and promises to continue to push for this bill, and other bills protecting property rights, taxpayers rights and our national sovereignty, and makes it real clear that government should not fund and enforce private efforts like this and thumb their nose at land owners and taxpayers.lawrnk wrote:Can you point out those votes of his you felt were valid and those you were against? Say..just the last couple years or so. I'm not being snide, I'm just trying to sort out his unusual voting pattern.
Lots of votes for and against bills that are not related to anything constitutional. I think Liberty's statement was more factual.KBCraig wrote:When 99% of what passes through Congress is flagrantly unconstitutional, I find it highly refreshing.lawrnk wrote:I find voting no on 99% of everything that comes your way slightly distracting.
