RE: Bob Barr From DON RASMUSSEN, Events Coordinator, C4L

FROM DON RASMUSSEN, EVENTS COORDINATOR, CAMPAIGN FOR LIBERTY:
“The following reflect my personal feelings and is not endorsed by Dr. Paul or Campaign for Liberty.
“I am deeply disappointed by Bob Barr’s decision not to participate in today’s press conference just as I have been disappointed with the Barr campaign throughout this election cycle.
“The idea that he was busy is absurd. I am sitting in the National Press Club right now waiting for his hastily called press conference to begin. This is the same building where Dr. Paul’s presser just ended. Barr committed to participate, but had his campaign manager call us minutes before it started to tell us that Bob thinks “it just isn’t worth it.” I look forward to hearing him explain how breaking a promise to Congressman Paul constitutes a wise campaign strategy.
“It is my great hope that the alternative parties will present the American people with quality candidates that offer a real option. Clearly the Libertarian Party has failed to do so. Bob Barr has repeatedly broken his promises to Dr. Paul, showed up uninvited at C4L events, and made statement contrary to Dr. Paul’s beliefs while still claiming the mantle of heir to the R3VOLution.
“Hopefully, the LP will find a way to reject this candidate without rejecting the idea of engagement in practical politics.”
I find it odd that Bob Barr
I find it odd that Bob Barr would accept an invitation to attend the conference and then back out at the last minute. He has been in politics long enough to know better. I believe that either someone threatened him in some way to keep him from attending or he is a neocon trying to disrupt the C4L movement. In either case he is not worthy of the office he is seeking. I have always felt that he is a neocon lite at a minimum.
Calling for military involvement in South America...
as a new strategy for the "War on Drugs" pretty much defines him as more than lite...

Hey, is that you, RonBarr?
TROLL ALERT!
Excuse me??
If you're going to slam or accuse someone of something at least man up and have the balls to say the name of the person you're slamming!
Unless of course you are only here to be the village fool....
in which case there are many folks on here ready and willing to take your accusations to task and expose you for the fool you must be.
Either way...I think you're surely in the wrong forum and I just have to wonder why you're here.
Welcome the new troll, Daily Paulers!
Another apologist and shill for Bobber makes its appearance here today!
What does that make now, 45 or so?
i think barr
might be a mole too. and snubbing ron paul was done on purpose so he would really damage any impact the LP could of done. i think he was sent to destroy the LP. and the LP is stuck with it now. and him asking ron paul to run as vp was a last attempt to ruin ron paul as well.
That is my suspicion too,coop..
I have never hesitated to vote (L) till now.
I trust you guys. And if we can get on the same page and unify,I will vote for unity,as this group of voters are more educated on the issues and stances.
I only hope we can come together and get SOMEONE on the stage that kick some R&D ass.

Candy Barr is a plant for the Neo-Cons
amazing he said that Ron Pauls campaign was over before the good Doctor did and if I recall this all came shortly after the Bilderberger conference where they assigned Tom Foley to tell Ron Paul to quit.

If by "himself"
you mean "traitorous crap", then yes, I agree.
of course we respect Babarr's
his right to do whatever he wants. how about we give him 4 years with plenty of free time and none in an oval office where he has to do soo much stuff. poor guy just wants chillaxing and we ask him to go to press releases like ron paul does...come on, it is too much to ask.

It makes more sense that Paul snubbed Barr
Why would Barr miss such a great opportunity to have Ron Paul push his supporters his way?
There is obvious animosity between Barr and Paul. Barr is more than willing to have Paul as his VP...so Barr doesn't dislike Paul.
It is more likely that Paul wants Barr to be the VP (which to us makes a LOT more sense)...and Barr refused...so Paul snubbed him.
It is really hard to believe that Paul would do such a thing, but Paul hasn't survived in the political world for decades only because of his conservative views.
Another possibility is that Paul believes (as I do) that Barr is a GOP mole...and snubbed him.
BTW: Whatever the reason, I'm glad that Paul and Barr aren't playing together. I don't like Barr's views and I think he's a mole.
Seems Like It Was Worthy Enough For Bob Barr To Come All The Way
to St Paul to sniff around like the starving neo-con plant dog that he is but too arrogant and disrespectful to Ron Paul and doesn't deserve ant attention other than to expose him for the shill he is...

Bob Barr a NEOCON diversion
September 10th, 2008 | Campaign For Liberty, Neocons, Politics, Ron Paul
By: D. H. Williams @ 1:19 PM - EST
The Libertarian Party is dead, and Bob Barr killed it.
Bob Barr continually tries to steal the support created by Ron Paul and his r3VOLution. Today Bob Barr was invited by Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) to attend a press conference held at the National Press Club in Washington D. C., while initially accepting the gracious invitation he snubbed Dr. Paul and other political candidates who attended. Making Barr’s behavior unforgiving is that he had to be very close by because he had a scheduled press conference 15 minutes after Paul’s in the same building.
Don Rasmussen who maintains the official Campaign For Liberty blog said, “Barr committed to participate, but had his campaign manager call us minutes before it started to tell us that Bob thinks ‘it just isn’t worth it.’ I look forward to hearing him explain how breaking a promise to Congressman Paul constitutes a wise campaign strategy.”
Rasmussen goes on to say, “The idea that he was busy is absurd. I am sitting in the National Press Club right now waiting for his hastily called press conference to begin. This is the same building where Dr. Paul’s presser just ended. Barr committed to participate, but had his campaign manager call us minutes before it started to tell us that Bob thinks “it just isn’t worth it.”
Barr has done his best to insinuate himself and his campaign at every turn showing up at Ron Paul events uninvited and in violation of promises made to Dr. Paul’s staff. His supporters have also attempted to take over blogs and forums dedicated to Ron Paul such as Daily Paul and Ron Paul Forums.

Obviously Rasmussen is pissed and clueless
The LP cannot reject him now, as much as we'd like to. Rasmussen has no idea how the LP operates.
Trust me, most of the membership did not want him. Still don't either.
However, he is right in that Barr blew it. But that's not surprising, either, since that's been the mantra of his campaign--collasaflop.
Time to be Wise
Tilting at windmills is futile. Trying to make Barr the enemy is a waste of time and energy.
Barr is not the enemy. Don't let yourselves be distracted from the real enemies of liberty, or let yourselves be used by them.
If you listened to the press conference at all, you heard that a vote for Barr is just as good as a vote for anyone besides the two representatives of the dominant party. If you didn't get that, you've lost sight of the goal.

What do you think? http://consequeries.com/
I agree, it is time to be wise....
I just don't agree with your conclusions. I think it's wise for those who have been fooled to open their eyes to the reality that Barr is a POS.
Even the well-known Patriot, Kokesh, denounced Barr to his face and withdrew his support...

Hmmm
Barr's statement seems strange. One should first hear Barr's account and not jump to conclusions, but he really should have been with Dr. Paul. Could it be that Barr is angry that Dr. Paul is on the ballot in Montana and LA, especially Montana that can dilute Barr's support, Montana is an important state for the LP. I wonder... hope it gets cleared up.

Nothing that couldn't be plotted over a plate of hot wings with a few beers, and accomplished by next weekend, at the rate Bob Barr is bringing it down.

I think it's pretty funny that people would get so upset at Barr over this.

It's called "BLOWBACK" you freakin' troll. You guys have been spamming here for that neocon plant for so long, you'd have to be an idiot not to expect it to blow up in your faces when Barr turns out to be exactly what we knew he'd be. DPers have asked you over and over to stop with the Barr propaganda, but you just kept on..... Deal with it.
