Guess he didn't think it through much, Bob Barr of the "let's not get rid of the income tax, let's just lower taxes a bit" ilk.

Yuck.

This guy is on our side for the right reasons. Who cares if he voted for Barr.

I don't think many people who voted for Barr actually looked into him. The LP is very principled (Mostly), so they assumed he espoused the beliefs of the LP. We'll get back to the Ruwart's, Badnarik's, and Rothbardian approach. We even have a Rothbard Caucus in the LP (Along with the LPRadicals), if that tells you anything ;)

So, yeah, let's not fault people for voting for Barr. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt, after all the LP is known as the party of principle.

Let's not forget, the Obama / McCain options weren't so hot.

Mackey for President - 2012. I seriously think he may be our best Liberty candidate.

Like him being on the LNC board previously and all--yeah, they must have had no idea who he was. :rolleyes:

If you think that's a quotation of his, please cite. He very clearly and repeatedly said he wanted to get rid of it, same as Dr. Paul.
