[QUOTE=who'sbobbarr?]who is he? a conservative politician? is he black?[/QUOTE] There was a Bob Barr who was a senator from ( I think ) Georgia. The last I heard of him, he was working for the ACLU.

I well remember the flap over his speaking engagement at a CCC meeting several years ago. I think even the professional Jew Dershowitz got involved. Barr seems to have moved leftwards since then, perhaps out of guilt over previous transgressions.
He appears to have a bit-'o-Negro in him, at least judging by his mouth area and those beady eyes. But I could be completely wrong about this. :cool:

He served a few terms in Congress as a Rep. from Georgia. I am pretty sure he left the Republican party a few years ago because of the direction its been heading in. He's spoken out against the Patriot Act alot in the past year or so for example.

I can't imagine you'd use his name in your nick and not know who he is, especially when you can Google about him with a mouseclick if you really wanted to know.
Methinks you're a troll.

Bob Barr is a two-faced lying sellout... I have not liked him since his cowardly attacks he made on the CofCC.

I see Bob Barr has joined the Neocon attack on the Senate filibusters. He is a Sick animal.
I know he has written some good articles on the USA PATRIOT Act other subject, but he is still a no good turn coat in my book and his joining in atacking the Senate filibuster makes me didlike him even more.

GUEST COLUMN- Bob Barr Freedom's footing grows more shaky
Published on: 06/01/05
If "Freedom" were a clock perched on your mantle at home and you glanced at it this Memorial Day, you would notice that while it was still ticking, it had slowed noticeably in recent years. Moves by governments and courts here and abroad offer sobering insight into just how far we've slipped in defense of freedom in America since the "shot heard around the world" launched "Freedom's Revolution" in Massachusetts more than 230 years ago.
The right to keep and bear arms reflects a God-given right to defend oneself that our Founding Fathers deemed important enough to specifically enumerate in the Bill of Rights. A number of Georgia municipalities ââ¬â including, most recently, Roswell ââ¬â have enacted or are considering ordinances that restrict the right of citizens to exercise this fundamental right. But did you know that American corporations are now piling on the anti-freedom bandwagon?
Weyerhauser Co., a multinational paper manufacturer, has forbidden employees from having lawful firearms such as hunting rifles in their vehicles in any company parking lot. This move by corporate America to extend workplace rules ââ¬â which are properly and largely within the purview of company policies ââ¬â beyond the workplace represents a frightening assault on fundamental freedoms that has been gathering momentum since Sept. 11.
Some folks are fighting back against these corporate control freaks. The state of Oklahoma, in response to Weyerhauser's anti-gun policy, passed a law reaffirming the rights of residents to carry firearms in their locked cars in parking lots. Some of Oklahoma's freedom-loving companies, including Whirlpool, ConocoPhillips and Halliburton, are opposing the new law. These corporate behemoths make the ludicrous argument that Oklahoma's law prevents them from "guaranteeing a safe workplace" as mandated by the federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration.
Ah, yes, the old "the-government-made-us-do-it" argument. Even more frightening is that some federal courts are sanctioning such far-reaching corporate meddling.
Freedom's clock is taking hits elsewhere, too, not just on the Second Amendment. Long-distance truck drivers, until recently one of America's last bastions of individual freedom, have had to succumb to America's post-Sept. 11 penchant for regulating everything in the name of "fighting terrorism."
Every truck driver hauling cargo that is "potentially hazardous," including house paints and nail polish, must submit to a background check and having their fingerprints taken and retained by the FBI.
Some private companies and nonprofit organizations, fearful of being accused of not doing enough to "fight terrorism," are including a clause in their corporate leases requiring lessees to attest that neither they nor their employees are "terrorists" or appear on any government "lists."
Thanks to a Republican-led effort in the Congress, Americans will soon be forced to carry what amounts to a national identification card. The Transportation Security Administration is pushing to have a new generation of full-body X-ray machines installed at airports across America.
Perhaps one of the scariest moves against freedom is the power being sought in the backrooms of the Senate by a Republican administration and a number of GOP senators. They want to greatly expand the universe of private information reachable by the FBI through the use of self-generated "administrative subpoenas."
Such subpoenas are not signed off on by a federal judge; they are drafted, approved and served by the FBI on a party in possession of private information on you or me. These administrative subpoenas are not subject to any outside review to ensure constitutional compliance.
The champions of this dangerous change contend, of course, the possibility that a future terrorist act could be prevented if the government is granted such power. Such arguments are tautologically impossible to disprove, but they are eerily effective in Washington.
While such procedures like those of corporate lords who seek to create "Stepford" employees through behavior control bespeak of great "efficiency," they represent a frontal assault on any notion of freedom or constitutional accountability that are, after all, the power source for Freedom's clock ââ¬â that same "clock" that so many have died defending and who we remembered this Memorial Day.
S, [QUOTE]He appears to have a bit-'o-Negro in him, at least judging by his mouth area and those beady eyes. But I could be completely wrong about this.[/QUOTE] You would be correct about being wrong on this point. He is part Iranian on his mother's side. Others have made the some mistake.
Barr also has a two hour radio program sunday on "Radio America". When he was in Congress he had a website where you could click a link and hear Dixie. I think he did this to piss off the local paper.

That's no way to be about Uncle Bob. Apparently, you must secretly be fond on him to use his name as a handle. Ain't no high yeller there.

QUANTRILL-You say that I believe in the one-drop rule, as if it's a bad thing. Since I'm not for TOTAL seperation, I believe we should all be proud of ALL our heritage, and also being Black plus white, asian, etc, etc. is fine; it does not detract from the fact that such a person is Black. It's a strange game the whites play: they raped our foremothers and then made up categories for the resulting offspring-mulatto,quadroon, octoroon, HIGH YELLER, etc., and eventually decided on one drop of Black blood, as being enough to make it mandatory for one to be considered Black. Then we say "O.K. We're proud of our heritage, the 'one drop' is something that we're proud to call our own." Then along come the whites, telling us we're "not really Black", we're only "half-black", or we're "multiracial"-force themselves into our bloodline, tell us who we're supposed to think of ourselves as, and change it as soon as we find our pride. Quantrill, I see you like to display the loser flag-are you from the south? if so, is it your own "one drop" your'e trying to deny? SERTORIUS-You say "that's no way to be about Uncle Bob", as if calling someone Black is an insult. You've got a lot of growing up to do.

Okay, I'll call you Uncle Bob instead. Go back and reread the post you wrote. You are the one who called Bob Barr a "Tom", among your other insults. If anyone needs to grow up it is you. Get the chip off your shoulder. By the way, that's how he refers to himself on his program, buddy, as "your Uncle Bob."
2005-06-01 21:59 | User Profile
I was referring your saying "that's no way to be" about him, in response to my saying he was Black. It came off as if you were saying it was an insult on my part to call him BLACK. And yes it was me who juxtaposed the terms "uncle bob" and "uncle tom", I was the one who called him an Uncle Tom, which he most certainly is as I outlined before-he tries to pass himself off as a white, and hob-nobs with racist half-wits like the council of conservative citizens.

Uncle Bob,
I knew exactly what you meant when you threw in the term "tom".

At the risk of feeding a troll, I will respond. [QUOTE=who'sbobbarr?]QUANTRILL-You say that I believe in the one-drop rule, as if it's a bad thing. I never stated, nor even implied, that the One Drop Rule was a bad thing. I merely stated that you seem to support it. [QUOTE=who'sbobbarr?]Since I'm not for TOTAL seperation, I believe we should all be proud of ALL our heritage, and also being Black plus white, asian, etc, etc. is fine; it does not detract from the fact that such a person is Black. Very nice lip service, yet somehow embracing 'ALL (his) heritage' for anyone who has any black blood means setting the interests of blacks as a group above all others. [QUOTE=who'sbobbarr?]It's a strange game the whites play: they raped our foremothers and then made up categories for the resulting offspring-mulatto,quadroon, octoroon, HIGH YELLER, etc., and eventually decided on one drop of Black blood, as being enough to make it mandatory for one to be considered Black. Perhaps you could provide some evidence of this widespread rape of your 'foremothers' beyond Alex Haley-esque fantasies. That said, blacks are extremely aware of gradations of 'blackness', so whites are not the only ones who notice percentage of white admixture. [QUOTE=who'sbobbarr?]Quantrill, I see you like to display the loser flag-are you from the south? if so, is it your own "one drop" your'e trying to deny?[/QUOTE]Yes, I love to display the 'loser flag' as you call it, which incorporates the Cross of Saint Andrew, just as the Scottish flag does. And yes, I am from the South, and my family has been here since the 17th century, when your forefathers were still cooking each other and buggering baboons in the wilds of the Dark Continent.

Does somebody need to cripple you to knock some sense into you, like with good ol' George Wallace? May I direct you to a book called "Before the Mayflower" by Lerone J. Bennett, which might enlighten you about life in West Africa before the coming of the plague known as the caucKKKasoid. I assure you we were not eating each other-like your boy Jeff Dahmer-nor were we buggering any baboons. Copulation with animals is known to be more of a white hick thing, as I'm sure you know.

Some black guy wrote a book claiming that blacks invented/discovered/created everything, despite their total inability to do so during any period of which there is hard evidence? What a shocker! As for cannibalism, it is beyond dispute that it was widespread in sub-Saharan Africa when the Europeans first visited that dark land. And as for copulation with animals, surely you are aware that AIDS probably jumped from monkeys to humans as a result of Africans' intercourse with animals. Go back to your African-American Studies classes and dream of your Great Negro Civilization that never was. Those affirmative-action derived classes are bogus, but at least they (hopefully) keep you too occupied to sell drugs, murder, and rape.

QUADROON, or whatever you call yourself, I was not threatening you, that was just a jab at your fallen hero George Wallace, because I noticed you display his picture along with the National Flag of Inbreds. I would like to know what "Raina" means, if you don't mind. Cannibalism in Africa? just because some white guy wrote a book that said it's so, that makes it so? as for AIDS, the theory of the green monkey is but one theory, and the theory holds that blood from the monkey entered open cuts in human flesh, and then the humans spread the virus amongst one another when they slept with each other, as humans will do. The theory goes on to say that sailors picked up the bug sleeping with the Africans, and brought it back to the west. I suspect these sailors were bisexual fags, because AIDS in the USA didn't really take off until it emerged among the caucKKKasoid faggot "culture" in the big cities. As for African studies classes, I did take one in college, taught by a brilliant Black man who had been friends with Malcolm X. But the Lerone J. Bennett book I read independantly when I was fifteen and tired of high school, where all the history classes I got taught nothing but Euro-bullshit plus a cursory glance at China, Puerto Rico, and Africa to keep the multiculturalists happy.

Well Gabby, after I finished my second tour of duty with the US government I did try to bet my butt back home.
My dad was the chief engineer of the sugar mills in Cuba and a personal friend of Castro and according to what Castro told him "I was to Americanise to go back to Cuba" I know that Fidel is mistaken but I do admire him for thinking that way. :whstl:
