Barr to Introduce Al Gore at Bipartisan Event Speech to Address NSA Spying Scandal

Atlanta, GA (Jan. 14) – Former Congressman Bob Barr will introduce former Vice President Al Gore at a bipartisan event hosted by the Liberty Coalition and the American Constitution Society for Law and Policy. The speech will be held in the Daughters of the American Revolution's Constitution Hall (1776 D Street, NW in Washington D.C.), Monday, January 16 at 12 pm (doors open at 10:30 a.m.).

The Liberty Coalition organizes and coordinates non-partisan public policy, and partners with conservative organizations such as the American Conservative Union, Americans for Tax Reform, Citizens Against Government Waste, and Gun Owners of America. Liberty Coalition also counts among its membership various liberal organizations such as Moveon.org, the American Civil Liberties Union, and Democrats.org.

The focus of the event will highlight the growing concerns of conservative and liberal groups over domestic spying and the vanishing checks and balances necessary to preserve Americans' civil liberties.

For further information, please visit www.bobbarr.org or contact Taryn Jones at 770.836.1776.

Barr, a former Member of Congress, has served with the U.S. Department of Justice and Central Intelligence Agency. He continues to serve on the Board of Directors of the National Rifle Association and works with such groups as the American Conservative Union Foundation and the ACLU on issues related to privacy and national security and also serves as the Chairman for Patriots to Restore Checks and Balances.

Dudes at the Liberty(Libertarian) coalition, how about proofreading your press releases between bong hits, first barr's appearance is "bipartisan" and then it is "nonpartisan".

Interesting - maybe Barr and/or Gore will announce they're changing party affiliation.

I'm guessing they call it "bipartisan" because Barr is there.

Bob Barr is employed by the ACLU. He sold out. I don't know when I should congratulate the people of his district for voting him out or castigate them for being dumb enough to elect him in the first place.

Bob Barr needs all the attention he can get. This guy is fast becoming one of least favorite Georgians.

I used to have a lot more respect for Bob Barr before the past few weeks. I know from where Bob is coming on this, but by getting involved with Al Gore in this, I think Bob has spent way to much time 'at the bar'.

LAST CALL BOB!

NOTE TO ALL:

I wonder what Quinn & Rose will say about this.

They had bob barr on their show after he joined the ACLU. And Rose was still panting like a Beatlemanic.

He was re-districted, so he moved to Linder's district and ran against him.
He lost.

Thanks, that's what I thought.
Watched him on TV a couple of times during the Clinton fiascos. He should have stayed in the CIA.........

domestic spying and the vanishing checks and balances Both are completely mythical statements dreamed up by political hysterics trying desperately to escape their complete political irrelevance. Neither the checks and balances vanishing, nor the domestic spying, have or are happened. Just another example of the usual collection of tin foil hat waring rabid political bigots trying to justify their intellectual inflexibility and sanctimonious ideological posturing as "principals". This crowd would not recognize a political principal if you tattooed on the back of their hands. Have fun spending the rest of your life on the fridges loser. The American people have no intrest in listing to your 9-10 mindset in a post 9-11 world. Grow up you sill twits before your rabid stupity gets MORE American Civilians killed.
