Bob Barr on Patriot Act 5/24/2008

[411American]

What 10X worse than the patriot act? When your kids are held hostage and used against you as they labeled it FAMILY LAW as if there is such a real thing HELPS DESTROY more families than any other act as you let them in.

[AphoticAquatic]

I'm gonna guess and say he voted against it.

"drive a stake through its heart, shoot it, burn it, cut off it's head, burn it again and scatter the ashes to the four corners of the world."

That made me smile, go Barr.

There is more to Bob Barr. Bob Barr endorsed the LP candidate Michael Badnarik in 2004. Bob Barr was supporting Ron Paul during his candidacy. Bob Barr is on our side, unlike McBama.

[trekyz]

Indeed!

[silus2000]

So why did you vote for it in the first place?

Now when people find out from a third-party source such as myself, you turn out looking like a complete fraud.

[murphycline]

People make mistakes, and to be fair to Barr he was instrumental in putting in sunset clauses to the Patriot Act.

[silus2000]

This is not about making mistakes. This is about transparency. That is the issue here. I can accept him making a mistake if he gives ME a chance. But instead he tries to manipulate public perception artificially by ignoring an important fact. I expect Libertarian candidates to not play political games. He's not talking to sheeple here.

[shanklinmike]

If it wasn't for Barr the bill would have passed anyways but without time restrictions meaning the Patriot Act would be on going. He made sunset clauses that allowed it to only be temporary instead of continual! It's good that Barr has truly come to understand constitutional principles, more so than McBama.

wen does the act expire?
