Bob Barr is a bigtime aCLU guy. That's as far as I got.

In my experience, most lawmakers voting on bills are blissfully and dangerously unaware of any possible negative consequences of the bill they're considering.

Bush must be smoking cheap dope! Is he supposed to be a conservative? Not any more!
Meanwhile the left continues to bitch about NSA wiretapping....
Lets say you are Mormon (Catholic, Jewish, Baptist) and in Saudi Aribia it is against the law to preach your religon to citizens of that country.
The Saudis (Muslems) could go to your ISP and ban your communication with an of their citizens. However, under U.S. law, our country can not make any law that affects religion.
I once considered setting up a scheme of proxy servers to deter anyone trying to worm their way into my computers.
But I believe AVG software and a good Firewall provide enough protection.
But I still worry about keyloggers and such breaking in. I started checking out keylogger detector software and in a trial run the first two products said I had one. But I thought they were probably just trying to scare me into buying their software.
If anyone knows of a 'clean' keylogger detector, please pass it on.
But I don't do anything wrong . So why should I care </sarc>
This is the extent of what Bob Barr does with the ACLU, from his website:
"He serves as the Chairman of Patriots to Restore Checks and Balances, and provides advice to several organizations, including consulting on privacy issues with the ACLU, serving as the Chair for Youth Leadership Training at the Leadership Institute in Arlington, Virginia, and as a member of The Constitution Project’s Initiative on Liberty and Security, based at Georgetown University's Public Policy Institute."
Internet makes the "rules" fairly nebulous, don't you agree?
I remember when the Patriot Act was being debated. The aCLU was trumpeting in the MSM that conservative Republicans were beating down their doors trying to join the aCLU. Bob Barr was the example they gave of their new conservative Republican members.
Wow, thanks. Let me not read the article then, I mean he is after all, a big aCLU type.
I don't think Barr's and Armey's fear is unwarranted. I think we're slouching toward a police/nanny state even faster with the war on terror. I shudder to think if the dems had these powers.
Some of the keywords are odd.
Why is it that when some people disagree with some guy, they accuse that guy of smoking something? Could be sort of telling about the accusee.
What is a keylogger?

I shouldn't even comment after scrolling through this thread, but good Lord, this is more of the same sky is falling. BTW: I have nothing to hide.
