Bob Barr: Ron Paul Supporters "Ought to be disappointed in Ron Paul"

Freedom brings People together

"Victory for liberty! That is our goal, and nothing less. -- Ron Paul, December 17, 2007"

He was working on wife #4

Not only do I not see him being a true Liberatarian, but he honestly thought he was entitled to all of Ron's support simply because Ron was a previous Libertarian candidate. Not for nothing, but even with all of Ron's support he wasn't going to win. So to claim that Ron Paul's support going to Chuck Baldwin is somehow damaging the liberty moevement is laughable. And for him to claim that Ron went with Baldwin simply because he was upset about what Barr did is awfully presumptuous. Ron's been a strong advocate of Chuck's for a long time now.

I could be completely wrong, but there's just something about Barr I don't trust.

a petition to have him removed from the 3rd party ballot?? And wasn't there a lot of signatures on it?

And no one had to tell me to be.

I just am. It is sad. The guy is pathetic.

Barr.....as in Roseann?? Oh yeah, I know him!

Wow ... cockroaches can talk after all

Sorry Bob.

Even half or more of his own party can't stand him.

Fuggeddabouddit!

"For with God nothing shall be impossible"

The author of this artcle found Baldwin's strong Christian beliefs troubling. Since he made no mention of it, the author must not know of or not care about Barr's association with the CIA.

It is true that certain peoples interpretations of past and present find Christiandom guilty of many terrible crimes against humanity; of being anti-reason, anti-logic and anti-science; and accuse true believers to be cult members and worshippers of man-made fairy tales. Certain people hold this view of Christianity. I am not one of those people.

I am one of those people that see Bob Barr's association with the Central Intelligence Agency very troubling. These people have been accused of assasinations, torture, internal interference and undermining other people's countries, toppling governements and setting up puppet regiemes and starting wars. Lets not fail to mention that the CIA has also been accused of managing the drug smuggling cartels and illegally spying on the American people.

I'd sooner put my faith in the form of a vote in the ballot box for one who believes in the Word of the Lord and believes that with the power of Jesus Christ and a regiment of angels we can and WILL bring down the new world order... than for one who clearly has had training in strategic lying and half-truths with the intent to undermine, has played the spy game, and who now reveals his goal of "divide and conquer" by driving a wedge within the Liberty Movement.

Im sure Ron Paul is smart enough to side step this breech. I hope Baldwin is smart enough too.

I was totally shocked to see that he was chosen as the Libertarian Candidate, wonder how many he paid to get that?

Bob Barr should have been more vocal in support of Dr Paul during the primaries but he was just biding his time to be the LP nominee.

Guys like Barr and commentators like Dobbs should have been bsting their a$$es in the primaries to at least get the ideas of Dr Paul out there in mainstream.

We are winning. Remember the vortex. Bring them in. Barr is not one of us. Dr. Paul is. Let's do this right. We must all begin the fight.

Bragging about commitment to party is why McAnus is the Repub nominee. Who cares if you were an L for 100 years. I voted L many times and WAS an R for 23. The win at all costs attitude is why there is no difference between the two major parties. Forget about voting for the right person, or doing what is right for the country, just win. Screw that. I can't believe that people are so stupid to nominate a guy that has been fighting them for so long. The two party system was designed to keep the country divided, so that the people would not come together and take away the gov'ts power. Wake up! Party 1st? Never. Barr is a plant.

If Alex Jones says Barr is scumbag then he is. It would give me such a pleasue to kick this scum in the teeth. His retarded mustache makes me wanna puke...

This is a positive way to get votes
trash Ron Paul...OMGawd Barr is a moron

"Whatever Ron Paul says & does"

I may not know the truth, but I know when I'm being lied to...

It was peanut day at the zoo

Barr is a mole. I'm voting for Chuck Baldwin.

simply have said he agree on all or most issues with Ron Paul, but they simply differ in strategy and hope they can work through this and work together in the future. Instead he disses Ron Paul again! He must be unaware that many Libertarians already do not feel so happy with him and he lost some support by not showing up at the news conference. He could have given Paul a call afterwards and politely said he disagree on strategy, but not attack him. Baldwin
is no theocrat. If Baldwin would be a theocrat, then Bush and Obama would be much more theocrats as they support govt. funded faith based initiatives, while Baldwin rejected it when Bush introduced it. Barr needed more debate within the LP and also outside. Baldwin did help campaign for Dr. Paul and brought in some CP support and otherwise for Dr. Paul. Barr has really no monopoly over those supporters. If he attended the news conference and understood Paul would not endorse someone and not urged Paul to endorse one person, then he would have received the most votes of Ron Paul supporters. Now, one is not so sure....

Dear Mr. Barr --

You're as transparent as daylight. You'll get what's coming to you eventually, but we're going to save the country first and then deal with the small fish later.

into the empty echo chamber of a formerly principled political party and NO ONE pays attention, is he relevent?

Barr is so envious of a truly principled statesman that he is now just trying to crash the flaming fuselage of his plummeting political career onto the deck of Ron Paul's ship of liberty. Here is how R3volutionaries now treat Babar the crybaby elephant: Lampoon, Ridicule, Repeat

You can't help Baldwin if you won't help Barr.

Chuck Baldwin will never have a chance until the Constitution Party has a chance. And the Constitution Party will never have a chance until third parties have a chance. Whether you folks like it or not, Bob Barr is our best opportunity to create that potential.

Bob Barr has major media access, even if limited. Chuck Baldwin has none. Bob Barr has voted on major legislation, rightly or wrongly, many times. Chuck Baldwin has little or no experience in that arena. Bob Barr is a high-profile public figure that many people inside the beltway have a working relationship with. Chuck Baldwin is a relative unknown, even to the general public.

Do you really believe in Chuck Baldwin? Would you really like to see him have a legitimate shot at the Whitehouse? If you would, then you have to get behind the candidate that offers us the best chance to make third parties a viable part of the process. Currently, Bob Barr has the best possible chance to capitalize on the momentum we've created.

Of course, you can choose to stick with Chuck Baldwin and try again in 2012. Let me know how that works out for you.

This Liberty Maven report assumes I care what Bob Barr thinks.

I don't really think it matters at this point who RON chose to support, as this move is just a symbol, at this time ...I myself would like to have seen PAUL support NADER, (right now), to make the largest SPLASH possible for third party candidates ,to promote general acceptance...That would make the most common sense to me at this particular time in politics...
weee

And CIA supporters should be disappointed in Barr...

Who Governs the Governless?

T3h Libertarian Party used to be the party of principle. This could have been a great year for them, but now they demonstrate with Barr and Root that they prefer to be just like the 2 major parties.

...should be quiet and let the grown ups talk. And by grown ups, I mean those like Ron Paul who actually care about the Constitution, instead of the label "Libertarian".

There is no way I'd waste my vote on that clown.

Hope for America, Ron Paul for President in 2008!

Barr is the proverbial "snake in the grass."

He should live with it. He's become irrelevant anyway.

that Ron Paul didn't endorse someone. After his press conference some of tried to justify it by calling it a brilliant move, and so on, but I think most of us really wanted to see an endorsement of someone. Of course it's a disappointment.

I've known and supported RP for - I don't remember - 25, maybe 30 years. I do know that I joined the Libertarian Party in 1980, supporting Ed Clark and David Koch's campaign. I was a "libertarian" earlier than that.

I agree with Barr's statement that is at issue here - I'm one of those who doesn't understand RP's endorsement. This doesn't mean that I'll abandon my support of RP, but I'll also not blindly follow his lead.

My support is for the Libertarian Party and it's early leadership in fighting for our freedom and liberty; and for the party's platform. This support has never wavered through the years, through internal division and through good candidates and bad candidates.

Barr may not be the best choice, or my choice had I not been supporting RP's run, but he has my support and vote.
