My take on Bob Barr supporters

Take number one- You were never a Ron Paul supporter in the first place, and you are here to steal votes from Paul to give to Barr.
Take number two- You were a Ron Paul supporter and because you lack any fortitude, at the first sign of some opposition and obstacles to climb you run away like a p@#$% (cat).

I wil say I prefer the number ones over the number twos on this site because they never got to know who Ron Paul is so I understand that they are ignorant, I cannot blame them for their blindness. My take on the number twos is that we can't really use your help anyway because Revolutions take determination, and I want to know people on here that have our back, apparentely you do not so you are useless to me and this Revolution. Anyway don't start bitchin at me saying we have to prepare in case Ron Paul doesn't make it, save your excuses for someone else. What if the delegates heading to the National Convention thought like you, we would have no chance, so do us all a favor and keep your back up plans to yourself. Do you think it will take us two months to prepare for who to vote for if Ron Paul is not one of our choices. It will take five minutes, all we will have to do is look at the person's past voting record to make an informed decision. I am sure the delegates appreciate the spit you are flinging in their face. If the crap hits the fan with economic meltdown, I sure hope I don't have to depend on you for anything, you will probably be hiding in a corner somewhere, while us Ron Paul supporters are trying to save your ass and our own. It is the doers and have dones that still have hope, it is the people who have done nothing for this Revolution that have the ability to switch candidates so easily. We have sweated for Ron Paul, do you think we should stop now and have all that hard work done in vain for some guy who pops up out of nowhere and demands our vote. Ron Paul has worked his ass off for US for over 30 years and you can't even give him the respect of supporting him until the end? You can't even finish your support for him for what 2 years maximum since you have heard of him. You make me want to puke. If you were a number 1 in this thread I expect you to post negatively against this, and I welcome it. If you are a number 2 save your breath, you are useless to me. I am supporting our delegates until the end, I am supporting Ron Paul to the end. I am not a quitter.

I know you are directing this at me

Tog you are a great R3VOLutionary and I know you will see the movement to the end.And I respect you for that but to not have another alternative is simply suicidal. I am in this to WIN and for me it means breaking the two party system the one that have excluded Paul and all his ideals.I know a national delegate in my precent and have tried to share with him the DVD for delegates all to no avail.He even admits he threw it in the garbage.This is what we are up against in the RNC.I ve even tried to hand national delegates acopy of the REVOLUTION manefesto and they wouldnt even accept it So I am very proud of each and everyone of you hard work. but I simply brought this up now because guite simply we must because after the convention might be too late.I still salute you and too all those who have worked hard and continue to work hard for the Revolution.

How will you gain

by following the same path? Is this not the same path of acceptance, that got us into this very mess we are currently in? Stear clear of that path my friend. It's a dark dusty road that leads to nowhere. Remember, Rome wasn't built in a day and change is made one person at a time....Never give up, and never compromise with your convictions....

West Virginia TV station spotlights ballot access

Here is a video from a West Virginia TV station featuring the wonderful people from all over the country who are working to get a candidate who speaks out for Liberty and the Constitution onto its Presidential ballot. Otherwise, the folks there will have either McCain or Obama. Not a good choice. http://blog.bobbarr2008.c...

Trilateral Commssion Report- Bob Barrs Appointed Role?

For those that missed these articles being posted a couple months ago!
link to full articles below
Here is the relevant excerpt in first article:

"The determination by the financial controllers that Obama is the anointed one may also be shown by the entry into the race of former Georgia congressman Bob Barr as the candidate of the Libertarian Party. Barr will siphon votes away from John McCain and make Obama's election a certainty, just as Ross Perot did with President George H.W. Bush in 1990, allowing the election to swing to pro-business Democrat Bill Clinton.

Barr's entry is no accident and serves multiple purposes. According to journalist James P. Tucker, Jr., for instance, attendees at an April 25-28 meeting of the Trilateral Commission in Washington , D.C. , made a determination to stop Republican candidate Dr. Ron Paul's momentum in stirring up a political “revolution.” (James P. Tucker, Jr., “Trilateral Commission: Global Elite Gather in D.C.,” Global Research, May 6, 2008)

and then theres this:

http://www.globalresearch...

Now, I will move on to doing something positive today and will ignore the Barr threads from now on! We have a job to finish!

Delegate DVD Outreach!
www.dvds4delegates.com

So I guess the Trilateral put Ron Paul in the race

to siphon votes from McCain too. Now that they're done using him, they put Barr in.

What a ridiculous post.

We're supposed to believe this Tucker guy, why?

Just out of curiosity

isn't there a Barr site for his supporters? Why would anyone spend as much time here as a few seem to be if not to detract from Dr. Pauls message. I for one have realized the danger of voting for the lessor of two evils and will never be enticed to do so again. Whether its counted or not you can bet I'm writing in Ron Paul on my ballot. Now you may begin the insults.

Chessie

They dont want to find thier own site, they would rather come here and spread dis-information, troll a little bit and maybe play office agent. Any true DPer will see right thru this. We have awoken from our slumber, never again to be lulled into voting for the lesser of two evils scam. You can scam us once, not twice. Have a nice day agents.

This is My Site

Hi Chessie,

I have been a member of the Daily Paul for 1 year and 10 weeks. I was one of its first financial contributers. I organized a Ron Paul Meetup Group and made the legal maximum contribution to his Presidential campaign. So I have the right to post forum comments here. Ron Paul has suspended his Presidential campaign and has not been invited to speak at the Republican Convention. I joined the Campaign for Liberty and if I lived in the US, I would go to the Rally for the Republic. Ron Paul said that he is encouraging Bob Barr and just because Barr didn't vote correctly on every issue in the past is no reason Barr can't speak out for Liberty in the present. Ron Paul said that Bob Barr is serving a very useful purpose in the Presidential campaign by promoting the US Constitution and saying the right things about individual liberty and peace. I will continue to contribute to Ron Paul's Congressional campaigns, but now in the Presidential Election, Bob Barr is our best choice. I am doing everything I can to ensure that the American people have a small government choice on the Presidential ballot. Otherwise, it will either be McCain or Obama.

Let freedom ring!

Fredom Will Never Ring

If you continue to coat the bell with neoCON slime. We need a little polish on the ole bell, something to knock the rust off. A real man of integrity. Someone who values the bell. Someone who has given thier life works for the bell. How can you settle for anything less? Has your eyes not seen, a REAL patriot? Nothing less than a Ron Paul or equal will be accepted by me. You get what you pay for my friend. You cant win by getting more of the same. Hold out. We got two choices, we will either weather what is to come or we will stand and fight. This is still America. The world is looking for freedom thru us. By God, this is IT. We are IT. NEVER GIVE IN OR UP.

Bob Barr's Testimony to House Judiciary Committee

Here is the link to the video of part of Bob Barr's Testimony to the House Judiciary Committee this past week:

http://blog.bobbarr2008.c...

Bob Barr has now raised over $530,000 and now has over 5,700 Meetup Group Members.

Let Freedom Ring!

Bob Barr is a HERO! HOW DARE YOU!!!???

Bob Barr has dedicated his life to serve this country. He has been a CIA man, doing what all patriotic people do in the CIA. He was a great prosecutor in the war on drugs. God knows how many non violent self prescribers would be running on the streets if he hadn't done such a great job.

And how dare you insult a CIA agent. Don't you know that once CIA always CIA???

And tell me, who if not Bob Barr is going to save us from "global warming"? I can't see those evil terrorist gases, but the media tells me they are out there. Bob Barr just met with Al Gore and praised him for working on solving this terrible problem and advised him to let the "private industry" help the government issue its decrees.

Bob Barr is a great hero. He might all his adult life misunderstood the constitution and his duty to it. But now with the revolution making great strides, I'm sure the kind people at CIA are seeing us in a different light, and this might have influenced Mr. Barr.

By the way has any one searched the past of that other hero, his running mate? He is quite the patriot!

I am about to give up on

I am about to give up on this site, I really have better things to do.

With nonsense like this post this site, why should I stay? Now before you say, "good, then leave you Bob Barr supporter you!" Ask yourself the question, how do you gain liberty when your actions are to make the group of supporters smaller?

I know there are some rational people left on here, but we are becoming the minority. And you guys wonder why no one is even signing up on RP CFL site? You guys are destroying this movement. What a shame. BTW... McSame and Obama called to say thank you.

McSame Obama AND Bob CIA Borring are all thanking YOU

This is more of the same.

Some how you attempt to lay the blame of the current state of this site on RON PAUL supporters. Because Bob CIA Borring fanbois are so deserving of an apology from us who are still working for Ron Paul. You guys came here to Ron Paul site and spammed, bumped and replied to your own messages to dominate a majority of the topic slots on the front page. However, it is OUR faults that this site has be diverted from spreading the message of freedom?

"Guard against the postures of pretended patriotism." -
George Washington

That quote comes to mind when I read your very disingenuous post. I think you intend to garner more sympathy for the Barr Spam effort than you want reconciliation and renewed push for Freedom.

I just don't buy it. The fact that 'preferred' agrees with you reaffirms my suspicions.
Aku Soku Zan

Amen

Amen

Double that Amen

:)

Really the question is not

Really the question is not who you are supporting, but what are you doing? My argument to all the Barr supporters is that why are they wasting their time and ours on this site by trying to garner support for a candidate instead of doing what we gotta do to have real results....

The answer my friends is EDUCATION.... We need to work at the local level to educate.... we need to work at the national level by educating the DELEGATES.... they are the people that count! Having someone on the presidential debates spouting our views won't work.... been there, done that! The people that do the deciding are the DELEGATES and that's why dvds4delegates is so important!

Time is of the essence... if we are going to spend time arguing about who the movement should be behind, we are just wasting time.... and you are really aggravating people like me who are in this movement because we were awakened by a person who is just really hard to replace. And our eyes have been opened to the fact that we no longer will vote for second best!

So you go ahead and vote for who you want to vote and stop trying to get this movement behind Barr... it just won't happen. BUT we can work together to make a real difference by working on this brilliant project... this is going to take more than one election season to work but we CAN DO IT!

.....BUT maybe, just maybe, our DREAM of '08 might come true... you never know!

Bro

I support Paul and Barr. No rule says you can't.

I just want to support our delegates

www.dvds4delegates.com the newest and possibly the greatest weapon the Revolution now possesses.

thats all. If you are a Ron Paul supporter turned Bob Barr supporter you should respect that. If your Bob Barr promoting causes one delegate to give up on going to the convention, I say everything you have done before promoting Barr on this site, for Ron Paul, is null and void. I say it makes you a detriment to this Revolution more so than ever being an asset. I like the saying "What have you done for the Revolution lately?" Christmas is gone, why aren't you? Like I have said before, if the soldiers that fought in the Revolutionary War gave up as easily as you, we would still be speaking English, only with a British accent. If you can't respect the delegates working for us right now, by posting Bob Barr, Chuck Baldwin promotional threads, I will say you are a turncoat. I will say it everytime you ask me what you are. I am asking for you to give the delegates the respect they deserve for spending their time and money. I don't have any problems with who you support, I am saying I have a problem with you trying to pull people to your side on a site designed to promote Ron Paul.. There is a site to promote Liberty, and to continue Ron Paul's ideals and it is called www.campaignforliberty.co... not www.dailypaul.com- can you recognize the difference. Spread your Barr and Baldwin promotion after the convention and you will not hear a peep from me if Ron Paul is not the nominee, not a peep. In fact I will take your suggestions into consideration. Until the convention happens, I will consider your posts disrespectful to the people still working hard for Ron Paul, and I will continue to defend my position for the delegates and their sacrifices.

Who are you to talk about DISRESPECT?

You've violated this site's rules so many times I've lost count. In fact, this thread is nothing but flame-baiting and bashing a candidate (you might want to read the rules, bashing other candidates isn't welcome).

After you broke the rules for the umpteenth time, you were banned. What'd you do? You thumbed your nose at that (and at this site, it's owner, and common decency) by sneaking in under another name.

This thread poses the blatantly false dichotomy (look that phrase up if you must) that anyone considering supporting Barr is either an infiltrator trying to hurt Paul or a quitter. That, sir, is offensive to my sense of both civility and logic.

And you talk about DISRESPECT?

what does dichotomy mean?

Like I am some kind of idiot. I am a successful businessman and veteran of the armed services. If you say I am not entitled to defend my positions, I say things to you that would get me banned if I typed them out. How dare you judge me as some kind of uneducated human being. I have overcome challenges in my life that you would have been defeated from a long time ago. This site is designed to have an open atmosphere on everyone's opinions, you can be damn sure I am going to express mine. No offense to this great site, but do you think I am gonna run scared because I could be banned and not defend how I feel? You are sadly mistaken, some of us do more for the Revolution, than just typing on www.dailypaul.com, and if I cannot be on www.dailypaul.com, I am not going to cry and stop supporting Ron Paul. I am have not bashed any candidate, I am asking that people like you respect the delegates by posting about alternative candidates after the convention. I am here to finish a job, and that is what I intend to do. If that does not fit into your agenda, stop posting comments on my threads because your opinions do not matter to me. I do not feed off of you, it is you that is feeding off of me.

I respectfully disagree with your opinion, please respect that

You state: "I just want to support our delegates thats all. If you are a Ron Paul supporter turned Bob Barr supporter you should respect that."

I respectfully and wholeheartedly disagree with your opinions stated above. I appreciate your pushing for the DVDs4delegates to which I have bumped, created threads for, and donated money.

My (and many other Paul and Barr supporters opinion) is to hope for the best, but plan for the worst. I am supporting both Ron Paul and Bob Barr. To be honest, I find the statement you proclaim "I say everything you have done before promoting Barr on this site, for Ron Paul, is null and void." as very short-sighted.

You state : "I don't have any problems with who you support, I am saying I have a problem with you trying to pull people to your side on a site designed to promote Ron Paul.."
This site is and I quote "Dedicated to Restoring Constitutional government back to the United States of America". This site has somewhat changed direction since Dr. Paul's suspension of his campaign, and you have to accommodate and welcome change of situations...

Don't forget this Revolution is about the message, and not the man...

I respect your opinion, and it is merely that, an opinion. Therefore, you should show the same courtesy and respect to Ron Paul supporters opinion's who have made the decision to also support Bob Barr. That's all we ask.

It is the message, not the man...

If Barrs Carrying

the message then we are all doomed. He voted for the Patriot Act! Folks let's face it, we are going to have to make one final push for delegates, and if something does not go our way, we will have to stand and fight or a wait it out senerio to contend with. We will see, only time will tell. Voting for someone like Barr is only settling for the lesser of two evils once again. None of us really want that. What we want is someone who is solid to the core. Someone who doesn't have a closet full of bones. Someone to believe in. Sometimes that takes patience. Sometimes it takes years. Groom your children for the future. This IS AMERICA, where the winds of change favor the rightous and remember, "there is nothing done in the darkness that will not see the light of day". May the sun shine on all of those who truly want to be free...

JFEJOO4

I appreciate your comments. I understand it is the message, but isn't there a site devoted to the message called www.campaignforliberty.co.... I am not saying it is you, but there are people on this site whos one and only intention is to grab votes for Barr and Baldwin. I may support one of these two candidates if it comes down to it, and they are my only two choices left. I will say I would definitely lean towards Baldwin, if I am left to make a choice. I do not know if Barr is sincere, and I don't think it is time to take any chances. I am not saying Barr is insincere, but I do think the shadow government will try to cover all their bases, and now is not the time to take chances. I will say I am hoping we can rally behind Ron Paul until we no longer have him as an option, I am hoping it will not come down to that. I am saying there are delegates who come on to this site, who are our last chance at getting Ron Paul in. Let's give them the chance before we start finding alternatives. Let's put faith in them until they finish and do all they can for us. We can't give up on those who haven't given up, they are spending their time and money for you and me. Let's back them, and see what happens.

Great! While you're doing

Great! While you're doing your planning can you please help keep the DVDs 4 Delegates Explained with G. Edward Griffin thread to your right on top? Thanks! :o)

Simple question from the Dr. Paul supporting "enemy"

Who does not want to see Bob Barr in the debates with Obama and Mccain?

you mean to face loaded questions

designed to embarass barr ?? To be marginalised and made to look foolish like all 3rd party candidates are? To maybe see him skim some of Obamas votes and spoil for McCain (or vice versa) ?? Im not so sure I want to see that- no. Id rather not even think of it til after the convention when I have to. And im SURE they'll will allow barr in the debates regardless of how much support you get from DP prior to the convention. Im serious tho- have you tried the hillary supporters? Theyre likely to be more receptive.

www.dvds4delegates.com

RON PAUL, CHUCK BALDWIN ARE FOOLISH TOO?

Are you suggesting Dr. Paul, Chuck Baldwin, Bob Barr, Ross Perot, Jesse Ventura ETC... are "foolish"

Jinc: "...To be marginalised and made to look foolish like all 3rd party candidates are?"

"..to look foolish like third party candidates are?" WOW. Down with the two party system!... But it is foolish to run as a third party candidate...huh?

Why can't I get a "yes" or "no"?

So was that a "yes" or "no"? Isn't that both interesting and informative that no one who has been ridiculing us Dr. Paul supporters (who also happen to support the Barr Campaign until Nov.) can answer the question "no, they do not want to see him in the debates"?

YES I want to see Barr in the debates

You are not paid enough.

It is the weekend, I am in between beers and you Barr spammers are making me laugh. Go have some fun.

oh well that's good

you're a drinker, that explains why you're always angry and incoherant.

I sacraficed everything for Ron Paul in Vermont

I've been a Libertarian for years, I supported Aaron Russo in 2004, and I was the RPI Objectivist club president.

I was emotionally, physically, Spiritually, and financially invested in Ron Paul, I organized almost every meetup in Vermont and I was the ballot access coordinator and even did the Vermont Ron Paul myspace site. I worked part time and just Ron Pauled my life away. I cried just about every day and I am still in debt today as I write this. I was completely and utterly selfless because I believed. I became deathly ill on the night of the New Hampshire primary and was depressed for 4 months. It took me that long to get my self esteem back.

I now support Bob Barr. And when people suggest that I am retarded or evil in my decision to support Bob Barr, you can just GO TO HELL for suggesting that I am not a true American, have no intelligence, am a troll, a neo-con puppet ect. You can just go to hell, your irrational accusations of Bob Barr supporters gets an irrational response. You hurt my feelings and my intelligence. You will never get anyone to follow anything you ever suggest because you are irrational and barbaric. You will never engage in a intelligent discussion about who to support in 2008. f*ck off.

Ron Paul said he doesn't want to disrupt the RNC, he doesn't want to be written in, he said its the message not the man, and he also said he doesn't want to get in between Barr and Baldwin. Is Ron Paul NOT a man of his word?????

I don't hate Barr, I just

I don't hate Barr, I just consider him unworthy of my vote because of the Patriot Act, and his VP seems spectacularly unlibertarian--enough so that he's a sort of mockery of the whole non-aggression principle concept. They make two very strange standard bearers.

The Libertarian Party should have nominated someone else; if so, a lot more people would be supporting the party this year. I would probably be one of them.

Baldwin has problems too, I'm sorry to say, none of which are his fault, exactly, but I can't blame anyone for writing in Ron Paul instead.

SUPPORT OUR FOUNDERS' AMERICA
Support the Constitution of the United States

For your information,

Not all libertarians agree with the non-aggression principle. That's only a specific brand of libertarianism, usually associated with Ayn Rand. Most academic libertarians. including myself, are consequentalists, meaning they simply believe that freedom works, therefore it should be maximized. If you really want to stick to the non-aggression principle, then you should be an anarchist, because taxes are not voluntary.

By the way here is Barr on video the day before the Patriot Act. He was a strong critic. http://www.dailypaul.com/...

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

Your theory that "freedom

Your theory that "freedom works, therefore it should be maximized" sounds a lot like the neo-con theory of "spreading Democracy".

SUPPORT OUR FOUNDERS' AMERICA
Support the Constitution of the United States

You are still here?

Hey did you ever figure out whether or not Rockefeller Jr. was a good person or not. Since you think his dad was a good man. That's twisted if you ask me.

What a stupid post

No offense but you are not using your gray matter.

Many Barr supporters don't understand that he is very likely to slide to the left or neocon way and betray our principles BUT they are thinking strategically.

"Run at the first sign of opposition"?? What are you talking about?

1 - they don't want John McCain

2- they want to punish with the hope of reforming the Republican party

3- maybe they believe this will have more effect than still pushing Ron Paul now he has suspended his campaign and rather than writing him

I think you can argue against that point.

4- they see Barr as part of a broader CFL - pushing a liberty/libertarian agenda wherever they can

And you can argue that that is not going to work either

That's my take on this post. You sound like a hater to me *on this subject* or you are just frustrated.

You sound like a Troll

People dont want another lying untrust worthy politician AnnieGun. Barr is a scoundrel. Barr voted for the Patriot Act. Barr is EX-CIA. Sounds like a trusty fella....NOT. How many of these little debacles, mixups, and accidents will we tolerate upon what is left of our civil liberties? Will a communist country suffice for you AnnieGun? When will enough be enough? JUST SAY NO. Let thier voting record STAND. ( insert word here ) I get sick of you trolls.

Will Potatoes fit?

Is it OK if the word I inserted was potatoes?

Well since you like barr.

And Annie is just well.. Annie. I guess you can get upset that we are not going along with your candidate on the Daily Paul. Sorry we are all still Ron Paul supporters here regardless of how much you try to swing the vote.

The Time for Liberty

Hi Tog,
Check out this video: http://www.youtube.com/wa...
I voted for Ron Paul in 1988 for President as the Libertarian Party candidate and in 2008 for the Republican Party's Presidential nomination. But Congressman Paul has suspended his campaign and moved on to the Campaign for Liberty, which I joined immediately.
Now is the time to start supporting a Presidential candidate who will be on the ballot in all 50 states and is speaking out for the US Constitution and liberty. Here is a good video that ties together alot of the great libertarian messengers from the last 50 years. Congressman Ron Paul and Bob Barr are heroes because they are doing what they can where they are at. Ron Paul has changed many minds for liberty. Bob Barr has changed his mind about many issues for the better. May I suggest that some people change their mind about Bob Barr? Lets rally together and make a difference for freedom. Here is the link: http://www.youtube.com/wa...
Let freedom grow. Peace and God bless you.

I don't have a problem with

I don't have a problem with your supporting the Libertarian Party, but for me too many visible and vocal Libertarian's said or typed some ugly things about Ron Paul during very critical times in late 2007, early 2008.

I'm none too pleased about that, and I'm personally not supporting The Libertarian Party any time in the near future. They can kiss my ass.

Anywaym, they know their guy, Barr, can't win, it's purely symbolic. Well if it's going to be symbolic, then the man and the message better be pretty damn good. And it's not, it fails.

The message I hear from the Big Ls is "We didn't support you when it was important, but go ahead and support us now, because it's _very_ _important_"

I'm sure it is.

Now go to hell. (The Libertarian Party, not you specifically)

Changed his mind

I call that flip flopping like a dying fish on a deck.

Excuse Me

But who the F*&K are you to pigeon hole me into one of those two categories?

How about this one:

Take Number Three - I supported Ron Paul from the beginning, even before he formed his exploratory committee. I fought to elect delegates from my state. We were not successful. (Louisiana) There is nothing more I can do in Louisiana to help Ron Paul at the RNC, which he won't even be attending because he will be at the Rally for the Republic. (I will be in school and so cannot attend, though I would if it were possible) I don't have the option to write in RP. My state doesn't allow it. There is no place on the ballot, or mechanism to do so with the types of machines we use. (push button) If I chose to vote absentee, I stand a chance of my vote not being counted at all. If I take that chance, and write in Dr. Paul somewhere on the ballot (since there is no blank for a write in) my ballot will be tossed in the trash and so will my vote for other Libertarian candidates. I still hope Ron gets the RNC bid. I have already donated a large amount of time, blood, sweat, effort, and money to his campaign, and I currently donate to the Campaign for Liberty. I am voting for Barr, and I support him, because he is the best voice for Liberty who is definitely in the race. If Dr. Paul gets the nomination, I will vote for him and not Barr. At this point, there isn't much other choice than simply not voting in the presidential race. I don't see that as doing much good. I'd rather, absent Dr. Paul in the race, give the LP the best showing I can.

I think sir, you owe myself and all others like me an apology.

Looks like You

pigeon holed yourself. AHHHH, the lessers of two evils once again. My vote wont count, wah wah wah. PHULEEEASSSEE. WAKE UP. If you vote for someone like Barr it is no different than voting for Obombs or McInsane. Have they not voted in the same manner? Do you trust them to maintain our civil liberties? The best voice for liberty huh? WOW what a voice. Was that the voice who voted for the Patriot Act? Look Barr is telling people what they want to hear, he is ANOTHER TOOL for the establishment. You can't say your for liberty and Constitutional values and vote YES on the Patriot Act. Your vote would be better cast in dumpster.

Bob Barr's Record

Here is a summary of Bob Barr's famous or more appropo infamous record:

1. Employed by the CIA. Perhaps he is still employed by the CIA?
2. One of the House Managers in the Clinton impeachment preceeding. Regardless of your opinion of Bill Clinton, it is outragious that Barr assisted with Clinton's impeachment and yet has not demanded impeachment of George W Bush until recently as a Presidential candidate himself, who clearly has violated the Constitution.
3. Voted for the 1st Patriot Act. Barr's explanation is that he tried to add sunset clauses to the Patriot Act and thus why he voted for it. He could have voted No and the other congressmen would have voted Yes with the sunset clauses included.
4. Voted Yes for the Iraq Resolution. President Bush used this resolution to unconstitutionally invade Iraq. Congress must declare war. A resolution is NOT a declaration of war. How does a Libertarian Presidential nominee explain voting Yes for the Iraq resolution?
5. Bob Barr while in Congress proposed that the Pentagon ban the wicca religion. I thought Libertarians believed in civil liberties which includes freedom of religious choice?
6. Bob Barr sponsored and authored the Defense of Marriage Act. This act prevented the federal government from recognizing same sex marriages. Again where are the civil liberties?
7. Barr was a proponent on the war on drugs. There even is a Barr Amendment that allows the federal government to ban marijuana use for medicinal purposes. Regardless of your opinion of marijuana even for medicinal purposes, since when does a free constitutional republic tell its citizens what they can put in there bodies. I thought Libertarians supported civil liberties?

As you can see in my opinion the evidence is clear and indisputable that Bob Barr is NOT a Libertarian. Perhaps he is a CIA wolf in sheeps clothing. But what do I know. I only looked up the poor saps voting record.

you can continue to rehash old news and repeat it forever, or you can do your homework. If we treated Ron Paul the way you treat Bob Barr, there would be no Campaign for Liberty or Rally for the Republic, or Revolution, or any chance at all of getting him the nomination via delegates because there would be none to support whatever negativity has come out against Dr. Paul in his campaign(s).

I will not respond to your point by point because it has been done on other threads and other sites many times over.

If we limit ourselves only to people who are "born" Libertarian, and shun those who have seen the error of their ways, then we will remain a very ineffectual group, and quickly devolve into a lunatic fringe.

The purist concept is horse manure. All or nothing will get you nothing in politics. I could find many policies where Dr. Paul is NOT 100% Libertarian in all cases to all degrees whatsoever. Does that make him unworthy of our support?

Grow up.

We are treating Ron Paul the same way

but Ron Paul has no skeletons in the closet. Ron Paul has not done what Barr has done and Ron Paul is not endorsing Barr!
