Way to go, Bob. Because getting Osama Obama elected is really going to help the Libertarian cause, right?

Barr is no Libertarian.

He is fully on board with the Mega-Government, socialist Global Warming scam.

No, but it would surely help the ACLU.

Does Bob Barr have the hip-hop activist veep?

My mistake that's Cynthia Mckinney.

In my view, Bob Barr and Cythia Mckinney are two peas of the same pod.

If Barr feels this way, why did he vote for the "patriot" act?

If this is the best the libertarians can do, it's write-in time.

Actually, fools like Neal Boortz (famous radio mouth, high priest of libertarianism) believe it will! Boortz told his listeners to not vote for republicans in 2006, to teach the pubbies a lesson.

Libertarian BDS is particularly debilitating.

All he will succeed at is getting votes that would have gone to McCain thus electing B. Hussein. (hey that rhymes!)

GOP leader disses Barr

http://thirdpartywatch.com/2008/07/23/gop-leader-disses-barr/

Reason magazine’s David Wiegel was having lunch with House Minority Leader John Boehner (R - Ohio) and around 50 conservative bloggers, reporters, and think-tankers. Then he got his question in: Might the Barr candidacy force the GOP to reform itself?

Boehner’s response:

“A vote for Bob Barr - you might as well vote for Barack Obama. If you want to throw your vote away, that’s fine. But that’s what it would be.”

In fact, as much as he despised Clinton, Barr thinks President Bush is worse.

That sound you hear a formerly conservative Congressman reaching his level of mental incompetence.

The nearly extinct L A Times doing a puff piece on Bob Barr is an operative argument for the irrelevance of the MSM.

Worse, he actually fought to prevent State and local law enforcement from going after illegals saying it was a 'federal only' responsibility.

The Libertarian party is completely clueless on foreign policy. Libertarians, including Bob Barr seem to think that you can “negotiate” with Iran, and “want to understand” Ahmadinejad. What are they going to do, WHEN Iran finished their nuclear missile development?

Libertarian Party says ‘Iran should not be the new Iraq’

http://www.frostillustrated.com/full.php?sid=3894

“Iran should not be the new Iraq,” said Libertarian Party spokesperson Andrew Davis. “An attack on Iran would be like opening the Pandora’s box of foreign policy. All the evils we’ve spent the last five years in Iraq trying to put back in the box would be unleashed all over again, and I fear this time the lid will never be able to be closed. Attacking Iran would be game over for our economy, our military readiness and the entire stability of the Middle East.”

The Libertarian Party’s position is that the U.S. should abandon its attempts to act as policeman for the world and avoid entangling alliances with other nations by eliminating economic and military aid. The party believes that free trade and diplomacy are the best tools for ensuring an America that is at peace with the world.

Defusing the confrontation with Iran will not be easy, Barr recently said, “but any nonproliferation strategy must begin with diplomacy and include a willingness to address the other side.”

Boehner is exactly right.
