You are absolutely correct. Ron Paul has been confronted on this several times that I'm aware of. He is one of few who will openly concede to going after pork projects. In fact he supports the concept to a point. He has pointed out that he feels it proper to ensure that he get as much money back in the way of projects as the people in his district pay in taxes.
I'm not crazy about his position but I do understand it.
As I have pointed out on numerous occasions he is a two faced fraud when it comes to the subject. He voted against Hurricane Katrina relief but made sure his own home district got millions when it was hit by Hurricane Ike.
