Ron Paul!!!!!! FTW
My buddy who is minus both
My buddy who is minus both his legs thanks you for your vote for the Iraq War Mr.Barr.
So you
are going to vote for Barr whore! Why not vote for Ron Paul who always does the right thing? Write him in! A vote for a good man is never wasted.
????
Ummmm... This is a Ron Paul site. I hope that helps.
I saw him on Colbert the
I saw him on Colbert the other night. He isn't someone I would support. Remember, he voted FOR the patriot act.
He had to
If he had not, then he could not sit in on the conference committee to iron out the differences in the House and Senate versions.
The house version, at Barr's insistence, had an added provision which sunsetted to the worst of the bill so we'd have to vote on it all over again. The Senate version did not have this in it.
IF Barr had not voted for the bill as amended, he would not be allowed on that committee. Since he did, and he was on the committee, he was able to make sure that the sunset provisions were in the final version the president signed. Otherwise the act would have been fully permanent from day one.
Bush was pissed at Barr for doing this, and backed the other republican in Barr's next election bid in '02.
This is the reality of how Congress works, like it or not.
And yes, Barr does regret even having to give that much benefit of the doubt and trust to the administration, and is working to repeal the act.
Candy Barr is not going
to get my vote or my money !
It's Ron Paul baby !!!!!!

Anyone know wherre Barr's whereabouts right now...What? Where?
...in Chantilly ;p
Barr doesn't seem consistent
I've heard him speak about fighting the war on drugs and "terror" etc...
He doesn't compare at all imo to Ron Paul.
Barr doesn't have consistent message like Ron Paul.
Ron Paul is my guy and the Republican Party is the party to conquer.
Yes, the two party system sucks, but let's take advantage of it and take over the Republican party to get our Pro-Freedom message implemented.

Here's what I know about Bob Barr. I know he was one of the witch-hunting Republican's in the Clinton Era. I hear he has had a change of heart, and is now a Libertarian. But where was Bob Barr when all those children died in Waco? Where was Bob Barr when we were screaming for a real investigation into 9/11? Where was Bob Barr when we were Money Bombing and Blimp Slapping? Where is Bob Barr now when the Republican party is literally ass raping our campaign? Would such a champion of freedom allow such a thing without voice his support and concern?
Ron Paul stood up to people no one, and I mean not president's, no one stands up these people. Ron Paul stood up to them and screamed "thief!!". His courage and character is not only admirable but inspiring. May I live to see a day his face is on Mt Rushmore. The least I can do is support him and his movement. I plan on marching in Washington in July. I will march to Minneapolis. I will advocate him as long as he seeks it, and the principles of liberty every waking minute of the rest of my life.
Bob Barr can kiss my ass.

You're not fooling anyone
Ron Paul is the great uniter, the income tax fighter...the military-supported, defender of the border...the political apathy solution and the champion of the Constitution! Doctor Paul is on-call!

This Barr "Sunset Clause" excuse is pure BS.
This Barr "Sunset Clause" excuse for voting for the Patriot Act is pure BS because any legislation can always be amended in a later Act. It doesn't even need to be in a Bill on its own. Just add a sunset clause provision on to any unrelated act that is sure to sail through Congress and that Bill becomes an Act, and you've got your sunset clause enacted. Barr''s excuse that he was trying to mitigate the Patriot Act with a sunset clause by voting for it is therefore seen to be false.

I am grateful
I think the Sunset clause was a legitimate attempt to maintain checks and balances. Passing a law is not always as simple as 1 + 1. It took effort to renew this controversial law, with modifications. The original bill was ramrodded through before anyone had a chance to consider the ramifications. The Zeitgeist of the country was strongly behind it, the politicians represent those people. Barr at least attempted to mitigate it.
Also, Barr is at least rhetorically championing some of our causes now. I am not going to dedicate my time or energy to him in the near future (at least not until after the convention), but he seems like the best option for my vote.
I think all the witchhunting and conspiracy talk on this site goes overboard. Baldwin and Barr are not trying to steal Ron Paul's Revolution, they are JOINING IT! I am quite pleased that both minor "right wing" parties nominated open Ron Paul supporters. That is a small victory for this Revolution.
That one was dreamed up
after the admission he had made a mistake about signing it. He was in good company of all of the others that so quickly signed away our freedoms. I want to start hearing about getting that act repealed.
You said it, I'm tired of that lame excuse!

The best thing to do with the Patriot Act would have been to vote "NO", as any intelligent, principled Congressman would have.

Why
Why write a d*ckhead comment like that, Kevin? It is exactly what Free Republic is like, EXACTLY - or Red State. I seriously think manystrom has to think about banning people if they are going to try and STOMP on stuff they don't like.

My sentiments. You guys are treating anyone who is considering Bob Barr just like the "conservative" blogs treated Ron Paul supporters. Are you going to Hannitize the Bob Barr supporters just as they did to you when you wanted to discuss your favorite candidate with potenital like-minded people?
Wrong. We are doing two
Wrong.
We are doing two things:
(1) Defending the site against a SPAM bombardment from BillyDee and other Barr operatives;
(2) Expressing honest opinions of Bob Barr that are unfavorable.
Barr folks are complaining about the first instance, to which I say stop the SPAM bombardment, and the problem will dissolve amicably on its own.
And some Barr folks are having a cow because of the second item, to which my response is "well, that's just too damn bad". I can express my opinion of Barr and his odious running mate however I please.
