Ron Paul/FP.com Flashback Pop Quiz

Ron Paul has voted with a majority of his Republican colleagues 75.0% of the time during the current Congress. This percentage does not include votes in which Paul did not vote.

He did not vote on the responsible redeployment from Iraq bill ?
he did not vote on the VA bill for 2008...

It would appear that if he does not vote with the republicans he does not vote.
Real balls there.

As a point of comparison do you have numbers that show how often others in Congress voted with their party? I would surmise Ron Paul is at the very low end of that list.

Right my point exactly he is just like the rest.
He might sing a different song but dances to the same steps or at best seems to sit that one out.

My point is he probably votes far less with his party than most others in Congress do.

You're saying he sits out votes because he missed two of them? Again go check how many votes others in Congress have missed and compare.
 
I'm tired of the whole damn executive branch...

Let's just make it into a parliamentary system and give up on this presidentialism idea. It isn't worth the trouble anymore.

Just quoting the article.

You're misrepresenting the article and leaving out the info you don't like. Here it is verbatum... "Ron Paul has voted with a majority of his Republican colleagues 75.0% of the time during the current Congress. This percentage does not include votes in which Paul did not vote."

You then try to claim he's like everyone else in Congress. No, there are only three people who voted less with their party than Ron Paul.
