    Yeah, you've got a bug up your butt, we get that already.

    What are you doing to PROMOTE the rEVOLution?

    Here is a fuller account of Barr's record:

    Here is his presidential platform:

    I don't give a sh!t... we are supporting RON PAUL here. You might
    consider that you just might be in the wrong forum.

    I'm impressed by RON PAUL and his consistent stance on issues
    and policies. That's why he has our support.

    Switching to someone who supported the Patriot Act is inconceivable
    for any true libertarian.

    I must point out once more, are you certain you are in the right
    forum?

    Each of these issues deserve their own thread because they are VERY separate issues.

    Ron Paul voted Nay- yay!!
    I wonder what prompted Barr to vote for big pharma?

    I voted for Dr. Paul in our primary, was a delegate candidate for him, and as volunteer ballot access coordinator put together his initial slate of delegate candidates; I promoted him and his proposals at various think tanks I've worked, interviewed him repeated for TV shows I've hosted; worked as his legislative staffer in his congressional office 1997-2001, and voted for him in 1988.

    I'm pretty sure I'm in the right forum.

    Now we move to the next stage of the rEVOLution. And the "Other Presidential Candidate" subforum sounds about right--not that I started this thread.

    spread out over time maybey they each deserve their own thread

    but for the same user to sit here and incesantly post them seconds apart is tantamount to trolling and frankly its childish

    i shouldnt have to wade through a buncha i hate bob barr threads made within an hour of each other cuz someone wants to thow a hissy fit

    as ive said i have my reservations about barr as well but when i come hear i want to read posts about everything and i should not have to scroll through a zillion i hate barr threads by the same poster from the same hour

    + it would be much more informative for readers to have it all in one place instead of littering the boards

    Posting a voting record is "trollish" and "littering"?
    This is a new one for me.
    Please tell us the correct guidelines for how far apart- ie date/time/frequency it would be "non-trollish" to post voting records. I think we need some more guidelines for trolling around here. lol

    I'm pretty certain the next phase of the Revolution doesn't include
    any jackass who voted for the Patriot Act.

    And yet, even the premise of your stance is wrong.

    It was because of his stance on the Patriot Act that I support him. See my sig.

    Bradley,
    can you explain to us why Bob Barr wants to "reconsider provisions of the patriot act" rather than burn it?
    TIA.

    eww.
    I would hope that Ron Paul doesn't give Bob Barr our left over donations, and sell our contact info to Bob Barr.
    I feel like they are talking about me behind my back, but I am a paranoid fanatic.
    No effort has been made as far as I can see to reach out to Paul supporters by either the Barr campaign or the Libertarian Party. The LP is the natural home for Paul supporters. Contact the organizers of the Ron Paul meetup groups. Buy Paul's donor list. Show Paul supporters their work isn't done.
    Yuck, I know "my work isn't done" no one needs to "show" me anything, and I WON'T be working for Bob Barr. lol. And from what I am reading the LP is no place for me.

    if one up and decides to post every vote somebody took part in it would be appropriate to make 1 thread on that candidates votes

    if someone decided to make a separate thread detailing how ron voted in every vote he ever made all at once id be just as pissed though id be less inclined to say anything as it wouldnt seem like they were tryin to take over the forum and incite anger

    he took one topic and turned it into a million thus wasting my time

    i consider it trolling because its obvious he is trying to piss people off if he was trying to inform more than infuriate then he would have made 1 good thread on the topic instead of makin a ton of "oh and.." threads

    im sure im not the only one who has issues with barr who isnt happy seein this $#@!

    I do not understand how "pissing you off" can be blamed on OptionsTrader, when it is the VOTE that is pissworthy, and should be emphasized. I am sick to death of putting up with total crap from the politicians. They ask us to "trust them" time and time again, and time and time again we are screwed. This is true for ALL parties. Time for the wringers. The Gloves are off.

    I think that is extremely unlikely.

    okay lemme dumb it down a shade for the children

    lets say im pissed odd at options trader over the very issue we are discussing
    lets say he started 20 threads each one bashing bob barr is it approprate for me to sttart 20 threads bashin options trader no there is no reason for it and it only serves to clutter the board


    i came hear to read about liberty topics and if 90 percent of the threads here are about how you hate barr then ALOT of people (both barr supporters and people who disaprove of him) will leave


    you better get your mom to pin those gloves to your jacket for ya if you cant understand my point
