8. Yeah, but THIS "puke" gutted the ORIGINAL Patriot Act (along with
Dick Armey, another "puke"), and then joined the ACLU as an attorney when he left office.

Never too late to change, I always say.

2. Bob Barr Tried To Sue President Clinton - $30 Million
He's a fucking asshole:


Barr was so wounded, in fact, that he has filed suit in a Washington federal court against the former president, Clinton loyalist James Carville and politically active pornographer Larry Flynt seeking compensatory damages "in excess of $30 million" for "loss of reputation and emotional distress" and "injury in his person and property" allegedly caused by these three -- who Barr claims conspired to "hinder in the lawful discharge of his duties."

4. Barr...
The guy who tried unsuccessfully to get Wicca banned from all military installations becasue it wsan't a "real" religion that believed in God. The guy who for years whined and moaned about Clinton getting a hummer when a the same time he's screwing around on his own wife. The guy who said that all agys were psychopaths and should be locked up for the cmommunity's saftey...

Oh yeah... we need a dozen more of him around...

6. Bob Job

is one of the mean spirited repukes I'd like to see in one of
the inner circles of hell. BUT, on this issue, he realizes that
someday (maybe SOON), the rethuglicans will not be in power, and
liberals will be. And if the precedent is set now to shut down
protest with intimidation tactics, then who will complain when
it's used against HIS supporters. There were Neo Nazis before
there were Neocons... and they will be there after the Neocons
are all long gone.

7. Hey, folks, sorry to ruffle your feathers, but freedom of speech...

...and assembly will ALWAYS be defended by me--violently if necessary.
Anyone who wouldn't do the same doesn't deserve those freedoms.

Bob Barr, don't have a job anymore?

"A card carrying member of the ACLU", Repuke, don't fit!

Deep down I believe Bob is a Neocon at heart!
