"CNN just showed former Republican Congressman Bob Barr’s announcement
today in Kansas City that he is forming a Presidential Exploratory
Committee to consider running on the Libertarian Party ticket. They’ll
be showing it again in a couple minutes. Bob Barr was a representative
for Georgia’s 7th Congressional District from 1995-2003, a strong
defender of civil liberties and one of the most conservative members of
Congress with a lifetime ACU rating of 98; apart from his conservative
voting record, Barr is remembered for his staunch opposition to medical
marijuana and his leadership in the House during the Clinton impeachment.
Barr failed to win his re-election in 2002, and in 2006 Barr left the
GOP, joined the Libertarian Party (which had previously targeted him for
his drug prohibition view), and now sits on the Libertarian National
Committee.
It’s not just his views on small government and civil liberties which
put Barr at home in the Libertarian party, he also advocates immediate
withdrawal from Iraq War and acts as a lobbyist for the Marijuana Policy
Project to end the US Federal government’s drug prohibition - an
about-face from his previous position."

Bob Barr was never a Right-Winger and has always been
a Libertarian both in Political Thought and Spirit.

Robert L. (Bob) Barr, Jr. [The "L" is for Libertarian :<]
Plus -if- Bob Barr -is- in the 2008 US Presidential Election as
the Libertarian Party's National Candidate. Then Bob Barr
becomes the Ralph Nader in 2008 : Giving those Voteres who
want someone Else besides John "Smiley" McCain and
Barack "_" Obama another 'choice' : A Protest Vote !
Un-Fortunately for the Democrats and Barack "_" Obama
the vast majority {2-out-of-3} of these Protest Voters will
come from their side of the 'possible' Vote Tally.
Remember - Had Ralph Nader not been in the 2000 US

Bob Barr And The Evil Plan to Skew the US Presidential Race :
Some Republicans must be 'back-channeling' Money to
Bob Barr and the US National Libertarian Party to get
Bob Barr in the Race and Tip-the-Scale from Barack "_"
Obama to John "Smiley" McCain.
