HOT RUMOR!!From Eric Dondero:
Various sources are reporting that former Republican Congressman Bob Barr and 2008 Libertarian Party Presidential candidate Bob Barr, may return to the GOP and make a run for Congress in north Georgia. He is eyeing the newly redistricted 14th District, which contains some parts of Barr's former 7th District. If so, he'd face a primary with incumbent Republican Rep. Tom Graves.
Barr was a staunch conservative during his 4 terms in congress, even leading the Clinton impeachments in the House during the Monica Lewinsky scandal. During his final couple years, he moved more in a libertarian direction on a number of civil liberties issues such as marijuana.
In 2008, Barr polled 525,000 for President; the second highest Libertarian Presidential total in LP history, nearly 100,000 more than Ron Paul in 1988.

4 Bloviations:
Barr was always a big time anti-drug war guy. He just didn't play it up as much until later on when he sort of made himself persona non-grata in republican circles by picking that fight with John Linder. Personally, I always liked him, but he has sort of an ape-shit streak in him. Maybe it has something to do with his being an albino black man. :)
Since we're talking about a rumor, what about this possibility: Barr runs for this new Congressional seat as a Libertarian?
Rumor....Chuck Schumer.
I'm glad to see Bob Barr back. B/t/w Eric, when Ron Paul did so much worse than Bob Bar: were you involved in that campaign?
You were in pre-school then right? Youngest campaign staffer Ron had, you were what four years old?
yours for liberty
