Bingo. Entitled politicians should be voted out or removed as not fit to do their sworn duties to their states.
Red herring argument. It is not their sworn duty to vote in favor of any particular bill. The fact that a vote is held is proof that they are entitled to vote how they see fit on it.

Ron Paul is generally for entitlements (earmarks) when he adds them to a bill and against them when he votes against that same bill. That's what his supporters call "consistency"

But they are more in touch with what the people need. It's for our own good.

Hard to imagine earmarks being an issue when they can't even propose a budget, let alone pass one.

That is their whole point, without earmarks (internal bribes) they cant agree on a budget or pretty much anything else.

I utterly reject that lame ass excuse. If we as an electorate had any sense at all, we would hold our government to actually doing their jobs or vote them out on their ass. Instead, we have far too many idiots convinced that one lunatic party or the other has a clue and that the other worships at the tit of the devil. In other words, we absolutely deserve the moron overlords we empower.
