“I ran to stop the reckless spending. And I ran to end the damaging process of elected officials acting as errand boys, competing to see who could bring back the biggest check and the most amount of pork,” Paul said at a news conference in Louisville, where he presented taxpayers with a massive mock check for $500,000.

“I hope this sets an example for the rest of government — at all levels,” he added. “We can carry out our duties in a fiscally responsible way. Government can be both smart and efficient. We are proving that — and trying to convince the rest of Washington.”

I hope it sets an example for voters. Washington is not going to get better until we demand better leadership.

The entire GOP had better get behind this sort of behavior, or so far as I am concerned the liberals can have both party's. Lets call it what it is people. Its the Demblican Liberals vs Conservatives.
