The ruling “will go down as one of the Supreme Court’s most important rulings on behalf of liberty,” says Libertarian Party presidential candidate Bob Barr.Forgive me, Mr. Barr and the LP, if I roll my eyes.
Maybe if you'd man up and address this I'd assign you some credibility on gun rights and liberty. But instead, you're acting like a typical politician and a typical political party--ignoring it and hoping it will go away before too many people notice.
That's not going to happen.
I'm thinking of doing something to turn up the heat, and the most bang-for-the-buck idea I can come up with is a contest--inviting readers and other bloggers to design a poster themed on Bob Barr and his support for the Lautenberg gun ban. I've already received one from an activist I correspond with after I told him about this idea.
I could host graphics for people who don't have blogs here, and provide links to logs that feature posters of their own and their readers'. And here's a handy tool for creating them.
Which means I'd need to pick a date to submit entries by and to showcase them, a way to pick a winner, and probably some kind of prize.
On the other hand, candidate Barr could just decide to have a candid discussion with gun owners...

Shameful, that someone calling himself a Libertarian said -- and may still say -- "I trust the people with guns, BUT..." "I support your Second Amendment rights, EXCEPT..."
ReplyDeleteWe can get that from any candidate, including Obama.
IF... IF Barr has recanted his support of Lautenberg, it would be a simple thing to say so. Is he trying to appeal to gun CONTROL advocates who would NEVER vote for him anyway? That's epidemic among Republicans. I guess when we live in the United Socialist States of Amerika they want to be able to point to it and say "See, I was ALWAYS on your side, really."
Bob Barr has shown himself to be just another stinking low life parasite who can't get a life of their own. Somehow, someway this elitist piece of shit has to keep trying to force himself on the will of the people. The people are never better off with the likes of a Bob Barr.
ReplyDeleteHe's a dirt bag and America is better off without him.
I am going to write in Sam Nunn
ReplyDeleteI'm still the best write-in candidate. You'd NEVER see me try to limit guns in private hands around me.

I would be a better write-in candidate. I hold your sentiments and I won't live long enough to make a long term raid on the public coffers.
