I view him as a distraction who is undermining support for America and the WOT. He distracts many principled people and demoralizes others. And his association with Holocaust deniers is a moral flaw. Some people deserve to be shunned, and Ron Paul’s unwillingness to shun them puts him in that category.

Of course he forwards the earmarks to the committee as a constituent service. Then he votes against them.

In a recent story about a theater-renovation project, the project's primary tax parasite civic leader was congratulated on Ron Paul putting in the requested earmark. He replied, "I'd be happier if I thought he'd actually vote for it."

You see, his constituents know full well how he votes on these things. Yet, they keep re-electing him. By large margins.
