That just about sums up the entire interview. I knew I shouldn't have even wasted my time watching that douche statist Colbert. No substance at all.
It's about gaining name recognition and familiarity...
There isn't a whole lot time to discuss the issues, but the reason why it's a big deal to be on that show is to gain name recognition, and the more familiar one is with the public that in turn will mean the public will be more receptive to an individual and what that individual has to say.
That is marketing 101, and in no way is that a bad thing to be applying those simple yet extremely effective principles.
The more I think about it...
I'm glad he mentioned Gore because it shows he reaching out to groups to try and attract more votes. If he sticks with his own kind he is not going to get any more votes...
If the idea is to sacrifice
If the idea is to sacrifice principle on the theory you're going to win over the global warming crowd, I don't think it's going to be successful. JMHO.

How's that?
If he really believes there is global warming, that's not a sacrifice of anything. Dr. Paul has said there is some truth to it to, but just that it's been exaggerated.

Don't blame me if there's no voice for liberty opposing McCain and Obama in the Presidential debates. I donated to Ron Paul Libertarian, Bob Barr's campaign.

Solid performance...
I'm glad he mentioned the Zogby and the state polls to show everyone that he is indeed a viable candidate...
I'm liking the pin stripped suit to stand out a bit...I think it was a good move.
Not Off To A Good Start
Now thinks global warming is a "fact," apparently after visiting with Al Gore. And that appears to be it. Is it for this type of appearance the LP decided to nominate a reformed neocon? Not good.
Hopefully we'll see something of substance in the future.

I agree...
but the important thing is how he plans on handling the situation, and he wants to let the markets decide.
I can't complain about the
I can't complain about the "solution," but Al Gore turned him into a believer? Oh well.

I thought he just said his guest would be Scott McClelland
Wouldn't surprise me if Barr got the Paul treatment.
I stand corrected...
He was on. Not too much there from the questions or the answers. Oh well.. it is comedy central.
On the Colbert website it
On the Colbert website it says Bob Barr is still on tonight so I think it's still a go...
Colbert Report is on :) Go
Colbert Report is on :) Go get em Bob...
They just mentioned Barr on ABC convention coverage
Said something about him being a threat to McCain.

He would not only be a threat to the Republicans...
but he could be a major threat to the establishment as a whole if all libertarians and libertarian republicans united behind him. But, unfortunately, I know that that is too much to ask of this group because from my experience the saying that L's will never be a major party b/c Libertarians eat there own kind appears to be true... :(
I've heard it said...
That trying to organize Libertarians is like trying to heard cats - so this is nothing new - but I'm with you!

Colbert Report on at 11:30...It's almost time...
You all realize Barr won't
You all realize Barr won't win, right? And if Paul is saying that he has heard "good things from Barr", and Barr is saying such things, then why wouldn't you want to hear these "good things" in the debates? If the LP doesn't get any traction, then you're left with nothing from here on out but Obama and McCain. Even if Barr is lying through his teeth, it doesn't matter. I'm not voting for Barr to be president, but I'm voting for some party besides GOP/Dems to get some higher percentage of the vote. That's all that matters to me now, because I think that's all were going to get in this cycle. I think a 10% LP draw would be fantastic at this late stage.
Barr is literally the only chance left to get any meaningful opposition voice into the debates. And that is important, despite the messenger's intentions or veracity.
I don't give a shit
about the neocon Barr being on Colbert !!! Why don't you post something that pertains to RP or the liberty message. With Barr you will get a drummed down version of McInsane.

And please, when you call someone who is no longer a neo-con a neo-con, remember that you are denigrating a great many of us here who were "awakened" in just the past year. I was a neo-con myself - since I was old enough to vote. If you want to spread the message of freedom, you have to allow those of us who havent been here as long as you - stand by you as equals, or the movement will not grow.

He is the only one who is spreading...
the idea of limited government to the public besides Ron Paul. Therefore this thread does pertain to the liberty message.
You have
Failed.
docholladay! Add me to your list!
I'd hate to think I was left off the list of informed opinion. I think it's time for me to find a new site anyways. I don't know how to argue against people that hate Wal-mart, because they ran their own business into the ground.
Did you realize that many Paul supporters are voting for Barr?
Have you realized that in most polls, even those on Revolution broadcasting, show that almost half of the Paul supporters are going to vote for Barr? What's wrong with informing those who are going to vote, or are thinking of voting for Barr, to inform them of this high profile interview?
C'mon people, there are many more Barr supporters than the few that vocalize it on this site. I think most people have recognized that fact by now...
Plus Others
Many who are not internet activists are going his way. Barr is polling at about 3% to 6% nationally.
Dr. Paul never got above 5% of registered Republicans nationally.
What these Barr Trolls really think of us....
Below are some quotes from 'preferred' (who is most likely the same guy as 'bedr1', 'JFEJ004', billydee, onevoice, etc) and show pretty clearly what he thinks about Paul supporters who don't trust and support Barr, and who think Bush should be impeached. These guys are here to spread division and confusion. I'm a bit sick of them, I don't know about the rest of you.
ON PAUL SUPPORTERS WHO DON'T SUPPORT BARR
On July 25th, 2008 preferred says:
"I'm convinced that most people on this forum are complete idiots. There are a few intelligent people, but most are idiots or crazy."
"These are the same people who were naive enough to think Dr. Paul had much of a chance at being elected president. ................So I doubt there is getting through to that irrational sect of Paul supporters. They're beyond reasoning with. Their heads are in the clouds. You're not talking to people playing with a full deck here."
"Who in their right mind could think someone advocating that much freedom could win the presidency anyway? Most Americans are nowhere near ready to accept that. "
ON BUSH's IMPEACHMENT
***On July 25th, 2008 preferred says:
"There has been no evidence at all that Bush committed a crime. I don't see any way that Bush would be impeached. Impeachment is the filing of formal charges. Without strong probable cause they he broke the law, it's not going to happen.
This is just political grandstanding, and everyone there knows it."

I realize that my post about the 'Barr Spammers' has caused quite a dust-up, and I would like to offer some more thoughts. There have been several intelligent posts about a 'cease fire' on this issue, some well thought out and well written, and I have spent a lot of time thinking about each of them. After consideration, I would like to clarify why I still believe that it is important to expose the troublemakers for what they are. Here's why:
I think that in an ideal world, it would be better to avoid these kinds of conflicts, but due to the fact that our 'enemies' (meaning the neocon establishment and their supporters) are insidious, cunning, and shrewd, it is obvious that we DON'T live in an ideal world. Unfortunately, the methods I've employed are necessary in order to reveal the true nature and motives of a few posters here at the DP whom I FULLY believe are full time employees of the neocon camp, sent here to the DP to distract, confuse, and divide the true patriots of this all important Revolution. It has been proven that these guys operate under multiple screen names, and change them regularly when they get caught, exposed, and blackballed. To prove my point, here's a couple of quotes from BillyDee (who I believe to be the same guy as bedr1, preferred, onevoice, minichrist, JFEJ004, and others)
"I change my username every week or so. When you think I'm gone in a few days, I'll actually still be here under another name. I like keeping people on their toes. I may actually start changing it daily." Billydee
"Trust is Irrelevant".Billydee
These guys have no integrity, and the constant changing of usernames shows that plainly. If they were sincere and honest, they wouldn't need to do this. There is no need for being 'covert' and evasive when your motives are sincere. These are the same guys who have colluded in the past to delete important posts regarding 9/11 and other topics which were actually having an impact, and which are incredibly vital to the fight for liberty in which we are now involved.
I (and most other DPers ) have no problem with liberty and personal choice..... People can vote for Bob Barr, Baldwin, Santa Clause, or Satan for that matter, if they want to. What we DO have a problem with is the CONTINUOUS spamming here for a candidate (Barr) who voted for the Patriot Act, and in whom perceptive Revolutionaries have little to no trust. This site is a Ron Paul site. These guys don't respect others on this site and are constantly trying to marginalize solid positions which are presented here on crucial issues.
"I'm convinced that most people on this forum are complete idiots. There are a few intelligent people, but most are idiots or crazy." preferred
I understand that many other DPers may actually also support Barr and have a different view than most of the rest of us who don't trust him. That is their right and healthy discussion and debate is a good thing. I am merely trying to expose the one or two 'members' here who are strictly working to undermine the momentum of the Ron Paul Revolution..... the ones who evade direct questions, use circular arguements, change user names every couple of days, and who 'talk to themselves' via different user names in an attempt to fool and manipulate others into believing that they have support for an indefensible position.
I also tend to disagree with the idea that being agressive in the search for and presentation of truth in ANY form is harmful to the movement. I understand that certain topics are contriversial (9/11 in particular), but it is those very topics which hold the key to defeating the entire neocon powerbase. If we hold back the truth in order to 'spare someone's feelings' etc, then we are just as guilty of manipulation as the neocons, MSM, etc. The revolution is based on truth, personal responsibility, and the fact that A is A.... that reality is reality and must be dealt with accordingly. When we omit important truths and edit content to make the message more 'appealing' then we compromise the very integrity which gives the Revolution it's power. The thing about the truth is that no matter how ugly it is, it can't be changed, and therefore can be depended on to be a constant... an absolute.
The fact that these clowns are here all day, every day, doing nothing but attempting to detract from the truth of 9/11, the dubious nature of Bob Barr etc, shows that we have them scared. What's more, it shows that either they don't have a job, or more likely that spreading disinfo IS their job. I, for one, am not going to sit back and be 'nice' and 'tolerant' of people whose sole motivation and purpose here is to undermine the very priciples of liberty that I would give my life to defend.
So, say what you will, I refuse to sit back and be passive when it comes to those who obviously want the Revolution, 9/11 truth, and Liberty to fail. I will be as mean, aggressive, and juvinile as it takes to expose these disinfo ass clowns for what they are.

Truth is treason in an empire of lies.
Well said Doc!
It's sad that it needed to be said, but it did need saying.
This was perfect, by the way:
"The fact that these clowns are here all day, every day, doing nothing but attempting to detract from the truth of 9/11, the dubious nature of Bob Barr etc, shows that we have them scared.

People here can attack me for pointing out the disinformation trolls, but I as well am not going to "be nice", like Ron Paul tried to be in the debates, and let our freedom message get muddled and drowned in neocon, pro-state propaganda.
Dead On Doc
nice work, never forgive and never forget unless they repent and make huge amends say like removing themselves from this planet.

But then your losing Ron Paul supporters.
I guess that doesn't really matter at this site because differences in opinion are not tolerated. You want every to be free, but only on your terms it seems.
I thought Fidel Castro died. Is this his doppelganger?
