Please stop posting false information. It seems like every time I come here I see a misleading title/article geared towards soliciting a response from Paul supporters.
The source cited here shows Paul receiving $451 in the month of August while Romney received over $90,000. The table you posted above is for the entire 2012 election cycle, making your “continues to receive more than Romney” statement a complete lie.
I love Paul and dislike romney, but I hate false information even more – and this is a perfect example of it.
Notice Paul is crushed in donations by the DOF. No surprise there as the DOF is the Military Industrial complex that Paul has longed preached against. and what DD Eisenhower always warned us about. The MIC LOVES war, and will always give to the candidate likely to win (Obama) to keep the bogus threats alive, and keep the NON STOP corporate MIC welfare coming!The ones who actually put their lives on the line, and no the real horrors of war support guys like Paul, who do not think it is necessary to be in every corner of the globe for nefarious reasons.
