Bwahahahahaha! As you sow, so shall you reap. The Libertarian Party deserves him.

More proof that the Libertarians are moving left. I’m only surprised that Ron Paul isn’t challenging this guy.

Very discouraging to hear Barr welcome Gravel with open arms. I was going to vote for Barr if he ran on a 3rd party. Oh well, might as well make that move to Costa Rica.

Bob Barr, drug warrior, in the LP?
How pathetic for the LP!

during one of the Dem debates, I watched Gravel brag about how he ‘screwed the insurance companies’ by going bankrupt, it was pretty pathetic, IMO.

Gravel is about as Libertarian as Joseph Stalin. The Libertarians should tell him to piss off....

Sucker. 8)
I will probably be voting for either the Constitution or Libertarian Party nominee. Seeing Barr or Gravel as the LP nominee will make my selection easy.

during one of the Dem debates, I watched Gravel brag about how he screwed the insurance companies by going bankrupt, it was pretty pathetic, IMO.MR. RUSSERT: I want to ask Senator Gravel. You talk about running for president of the United States. In 1980 your condo business went bankrupt.
MR. GRAVEL: Correct.
MR. RUSSERT: In 2004 you filed for personal bankruptcy —
MR. GRAVEL: Correct.
MR. RUSSERT: — leaving $85,000 in credit bills unpaid. How can someone who did not take care of his business, could not manage his own personal finances, say that he's capable of managing the country?
MR. GRAVEL: Well, first off, if you want to make a judgment of who can be the greediest people in the world when they get to public office, you could just look up at the people up here. Money — many of them done very, very well in public office.
I left the Senate no better than when I went in.
Now, you say the condo business. I'll tell you, Donald Trump has been bankrupt a hundred times. So I went bankrupt once in business.
And the other — who did I bankrupt? I stuck the credit card companies with $90,000 worth of bills. And they deserved it, because I used the money. (Laughter.) They deserved it, and I used the money to finance the empowerment of the American people with the National Initiative, so you can make the laws.

I stuck the credit card companies with $90,000 worth of bills. And they deserved it, because I used the money.That argument could be justification to any theft.
As long as the thief actually uses what he stole, you deserved it.
