Senator Rand Paul, R-KY, sent out an open letter to his colleges today expressing his dissatisfaction with last week's "compromise" to pass a budget which will be the highest deficit budget in our history as a nation. He rightly calls on his freshman class (elected last year) to oppose any further bill introduced that will continue to delude and lessen the campaigned on pledge of a 100 billion dollar cut.
Senator Paul rightly adds that these "cuts" are little more than reductions of spending...that nothing is really being cut. Paul is fighting, it seems, against the whole Washington spin, sticking to his guns, principals, and values in regards to why we sent him to Washington in the first place. He is a rare politician to watch.
