Featured Members of Congress
On March 14, 2008 Ron Paul was featured on the homepage of OpenCongress:
On Thursday, libertarian-leaning Ron Paul (R-TX) presented his singular perspective on the Spitzer call-girl scandal in a compelling House floor speech. "No matter how morally justified his comeuppance may be, his downfall demonstrates the worst of our society. The possibility of uncovering personal moral wrongdoing is never a justification for the government to spy on our every move and to participate in sting operations."

Ron Paul's consistency is rare and admirable. I wish all members on Congress would adhere to the constitution the way Ron Paul does.
I wish Ron Paul were MY Congressman. Mike McIntyre has probably never even read the Constitution.
You think Mike McIntyre is bad? I'm not sure Dennis Kucinich can read at all. Ron Paul for President!
Congress is a bunch of wimps, except for Dr. Paul.

I was on the road during the week and was unable to watch the debates live, but I finally got to see them both last night during CNN's rebroadcast.
I wish the Republicans could get their act together...
Thankfully, despite his obvious fatigue and frustration, Dr. Ron Paul sounded the lone voice of reason in the noisy circus known as the Republican Party. Its almost humorous, in a tragic sense, that when he does finally get the opportunity to speak for more than 3 seconds, that McCain and Romney will not - cannot - reply to his verbal spankings. Smiling like idiots without answers in response to his common sense reasoning, they return to their base level and resume their personal slamfest (particularly McCain) when given the first chance. It is this obvious display of immaturity that cause Obama and Clinton to become an almost appealing alternative for even a libertarian-leaning Republican such as myself. At least they are focused on and speaking of their vision of the future, however misguided it may be.
Mainstream Republicans and the media better wake up and recognise Dr Ron Paul for not only who he himself is, but for whom he is so succesfully representing. Yes, the good doctor may be tired, look a bit haggard (and maybe even Un-presidential), and sound frustrated...but so are those who stand behind him.
Ron Paul is for the people. The one man who has integrity!

Rock On RON PAUL!!!!!!
BEST PERSON IN GOVERNMENT HISTORY
Wow. Not cool. I have been a huge Ron Paul support until I saw what he did on a recent vote. H.R. 5872. Look it up. It requires the Secretary of Treasury to make commemorative coins for the Boy Scouts and give them the profits.
Yeah, you heard me. Look it up for yourself if you don't believe it. The bill mandated that government money go to an organization that discriminates against gays and atheists.
That's right, government money going to an organization that discriminates against gays and atheists.
And the big spoiler? Ron Paul voted for it. That's right. Look it up on this website. Ron Paul voted for the government spending money on an organization that discriminates against gays and atheists.
Wow. That's all I can say. When I heard about this bill, I was avidly looking forward to Ron Paul's vote against it. Sorry man. I can no longer support you.
I have been out of work since November 2007. My unemployment benefits ran out last month. I am 53 old and have worked hard all my life. I've paid taxes all my life, and this is how my country is treating me. Unbelievable. Totally disgusting. So anytime I am not looking for a job, I will spend time and dedicate to making sure any politician that votes nay on not extending unemployment insurance will be out of a job their next term by informing the public of their decision in every forum available. I will encourage others to do so as well.
I can't believe Dr. Paul voted against the Post-9/11 GI Bill! I know he doesn't support spending money on the war but this act would greatly improve our benefits. Shame shame.
