ATLANTA – Bob Barr, a former Georgia congressman and the Libertarian Party’s nominee for president, responds to concerns that he’ll siphon votes from Republican John McCain.
“The fact of the matter is the Republican Party has problems that go far deeper than Bob Barr,” he said.
Barr is fundraising in Georgia over the weekend.
“Our goal is to impede the chances to be president for both Sen. McCain and Sen. Obama,” Barr added.
Barr is one of two former Georgia congressional representatives running on third party tickets. Cynthia McKinney is the Green Party’s presidential nominee.
...just sayin....
he must really have his head stuck up...
Fixed.
>Our goal is to impede the chances to be president for both Sen. McCain and Sen. Obama,” Barr added. <
how does he do that?
And Boob Barr has problems that go far deeper than the Republican Party's.
What an ACLU Steaming Pantload.
Wow! Not very bright. If the DemocRATS can successfully control Clinton Inc. and not allow them to pull off a coup at their convention, either McCain or Obama is going to win. PERIOD!
Mindless fool. A spoiler is all we need. I doubt though, that any thinking voter would vote for this hack. Of course, that leaves out the socialist libs....
What does he think will be left of our country after 4 years of President Obama and Pelosi and Reid running Congress?
LOL that was the SECOND thing I was going to post.
Just my thoughts... who the heck is he trying to elect then?
He's on dope or sumpthin...
Little Man Syndrome.
Was the fool’s ACLU gig short-lived?
I used to think Barr had some modicum of wisdom back in the day. I see he’s proving me wrong every time he opens his mouth.
What does he think will be left of our country after 4 years of President Obama and Pelosi and Reid running Congress?
::::::::
Good point, and it is the point the non-thinking, kool-aid drinkers do not even have a clue about....these socialists will burn America to the ground, just to rule over the ashes. POWER is their only goal....
I wish the libertarians had nominated a libertarian.
I live in NY. I didn’t realize Crazy Jihad Cindy was a candidate this year for any party. I think I might vote for her just for kicks-hahahah. Obambi is going to win this state anyway.
More power to him. Anyone who dumps money down a rat hole like Barr, Nader, Paul, or McKinney has the right, even the obligation, to be swindled of their money. Can't fault him for gathering money and enriching himself and his friends with the $ of other dopes. Probably some freepers will donate to this guy.
He should have kept his mouth shut.
Now his name is off my list of options.
Huh? Since when does the libertarian party hurt the democrats in elections? In a world where results matter not the symbolism behind the effort, the Libertarians help the democrats get elected when people vote Libertarian. I have no idea what he means by he hopes to "impede" the chances Senator Barack Hussein Obama, Barr isnt pulling votes from the liberals.
That sums Barr up quite nicely.
