1. He's getting to the heart of this thing |
|
The fact that the "outing" may very well have costs quite a few lives.

|

2. Yea, I'm listening. Barr is a weird duck. I live in Ga., and sometimes |
|
I want to strangle him, but sometimes he's one of the very few Pubs who tell it like it is.

3. He's going after the entire National Security Council |
|
and not letting anyone off. He's describing this as more serious than anyone else.
OMG...I'm agreeing with Bob Barr. What happened to him?

4. Barr really hates provisions of the USA PATRIOT Act |
|
I've seen him in person saying much the same things as the ACLU.

11. He's a republican who works or worked for the ACLU? |

I didn't know such a creature existed. I thought repukes didn't care much about civil liberties.

5. You know what really gets me? |
|
Wolfie asked him what is the big deal about outing a deep undercover CIA agent.
WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE? A fucking sixth grader would know what's wrong with that.
And yeah, this Barr guy (I have no idea who he is) is doing a pretty good job ripping on them.
How fucking far is it from Norfolk to DC? He used AF1. That REALLY pisses me off, especially since he told people to conserve gas. Fucker.

it was Dan Burton who was the melon-shooter.
But Barr was one of the anti-Clinton nutjobs too.

19. Bar was one of the House ringleaders in the Clinton witch hunt |
|
He played a prominent role in the failed impeachment. I figure that's why he is no longer a member of the House. It still makes my skin crawl to see him on TV.

26. He's also the screwloose |
|
who tried to launch an actual government witch hunt against Wiccans...
Barr is on the board of the NRA, and hilariously, almost plugged one of his biggest contributors when he accidentally jerked the trigger while playing with a pistol at a campaign event.

24. Not only was Plame outed, but her cover company..... |
|
Brewster-Jennings was outed.
So, any other CIA operatives that used the Brewster-Jennings cover were outed, too.
Also, any operatives/contacts that the CIA had in other countries that was known to have dealings with Brewster-Jennings became suspect immediately!
Heaven only knows how many contacts were neutralized because of the * admin's zeal to push this illegal war!

16. Bob Barr is speaking out because |
|
he`s a true, old fashioned conservative, not the same ilk as the fascists in the White House.

22. Paleocon vs. Neocon.... |

As you said, Barr is an old-school Pat Buchannan paleocon.
God I long for the days when the GOP was made up of paleos....
