After the mid-term elections, I was somehow I was able to predict that Ron Paul would vote against the Democrats legislative attempts to end the Iraq Occupation. I am not happy that I was correct.
Ron Paul voted against both appropriation bills that would have gotten us out of Iraq. One of them passed both houses but was vetoed by Bush. Both of the bills would have significantly curtailed Presidential authority.
So, Paul continues to do what he has always done. When it counts, he votes with the Republicans. He finds some lame excuse.
How many of his supporters are even aware of this? None that I talk to.
