Anti-Barrs are Coming Out of the Woodwork

[Thomas_Paine]

It only took him not showing up for a half-hour press conference (where they went over the time limit before actually finishing). And everyone goes nuts and the Baldwin supporters angrily post, "I'm not voting for Barr." Well, I think we already knew that.

He had to set up for his own press conference. What's the big deal?

These are false misleading statements meant to divide the freedom movement YOU ARE A TROLL

 

[LibertyEagle]

Really I didn't know attending Paul's conference was a make or break deal. Paul and his supporters seem to be more warm and fuzzy towards socialists McKinney and Nader then for an actual libertarian.

"Paul and his supporters", eh? That sure sounds a lot like you don't consider yourself in that category.

So, you think Barr is a libertarian, eh? Did you read the statement from his campaign manager, praising Bush for his leadership on 9-11? How about Barr's stance on warmongering? Do ya like that? How about him on global warming --- playing both ends?

Barr made a complete ass of himself yesterday, IMO. Talk about someone who is focusing on himself, rather than the larger movement. It's Barr, in spades. This whole deal is very unfortunate.

Oh, brother. Personally, I think the vast majority of us here on RPFs have a pretty clear view of Bob Barr at this point. Although, I side more with the CP than the LP, the LP deserves better than Bob Barr, much better. This episode seems so surreal that the real question must be whether Barr's actions are scripted elsewhere.

Something seems odd about the picnic. Why can't RP be seen with any candidate? Barr, the Libertarian candidate is right, why would he have to leave?! What if any of us were told WE had to leave?? Would we be happy, no we wouldn't. F the GOP.

Those were the agreed upon conditions. Right or wrong. Does your word mean caca too?

Gawd the Drama!

Maybe we can get Dr. Paul and Bob Barr on Dr. Phil to work this out.

Lets get to solving issues folks. We got two years to get more people lined up for Congress. Lets get something going. Is there any stuff already in the works or is this something I should run with to see what I can get going.

Dr. Phil... Jerry Springer... anything. Just get them talking. It's better than arguing with the brick walls on here.

What a dumb idea: Not voting for a candidate because he couldn't make it to Ron Paul's 30 minute press conference because he was busy.

you don't understand politics. he held his own press conference afterward grandstanding, asking paul to be his VP when he damn well knew Paul wouldn't take it. That is called "divide, divide, divide"
Barr's campaign has had little traction, most likely these last moment chaos/diversion crap Barr is pulling is meant to do nothing more but to destroy the LP party, and cause massive disarray in the liberty movement. (probably everyone will gravitate towards Baldwin now) If you watch the RP conference you can tell Paul was expecting him any moment....so I call complete horseshit.

The LP party is dead this year with the cluster$^#% that has become the Barr bid.

I'm willing to bet Barr will withdraw his bid shortly, hopefully the party boots him out, if they can.

Maybe instead of assuming Barr would be gone when RP showed up, tell them explicitly, Ron Paul doesn't want any other candidates here when he shows up. If you (Barr) are late, you either won't get a chance to speak or will have to leave immediately prior to Ron Paul's getting to the event. I'm thinking there was miscommunication. That would be like blaming citizens when they don't understand the tax code. I'm just saying, this could be what happened, miscommunication.

Give the LP more reason to boot him: http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/RemoveBobBar/index.html

Yes, with freedom we must tolerate the nonsense, but we don't have to agree with it. Also, with freedom comes responsibility. Barr must now endure the "blow back" from his actions.

I still think Barr was the only credible third-party liberty candidate.

 

[fr33domfightr]

The funny thing about this, Ron Paul not wanting to be seen with another single third party candidate is, Ron Paul was on CNN with Wolf Blitzer with only Nader by his side. What's up with that?? I know he was promoting the third parties, but how is the CNN interview any different than the picnic, where CNN didn't attend??? I'm just trying to understand the reasoning.

Ron Paul was trying to get all Americans, not just conservatives, to vote their consciences without regard to party with that press conference. All Americans, not just conservatives. He wanted to show that we the disaffected can band together to that degree. And Barr, miffed at not being singled out, completely obliterated that message.

The interview was not the press conference. In the interview, he and Nader made a nice point/counterpoint. For the press conference, Dr. Paul wanted to have all the candidates and get the message out without alienating anyone by showing a preference.

shill it elsewhere.

you're trying to "understand" jack s* and you know it.

bob barr was wrong. ron paul went out on a limb for what is/was right and the candy tried to saw it out from under him, end of story.

You don't know me!

I said PICNIC!!

Hello, that's PICNIC, NOT PRESS CONFERENCE. I suggest you READ before you spout your clueless rhetoric.

Not wanting to be seen alone with one candidate for the reasons stated just doesn't make sense if you are seen with someone, somewhere else. On the surface it seems hypocritical, so I just want someone from the CFL to explain this.

You're so wonky that you've gotten caught up in the events of events at events...

It's sad really.

I suggest you READ before you spout your clueless rhetoric.

I suggest you pull your head out of Bob Barr's ass, and spare us your clueless rhetoric.

You pathetic wonky retard.


"I don't care who she's fuckin'"

(if that seems to be coming at you from the blue, it merely proves my point)

No, you're just expending too much energy analyzing trivial nonsense to serve some agenda, no doubt.
