Bob Barr postpones his defense of alleged child molester

Independent Political Report ^

ormer federal prosecutor Bob Barr took a case last year defending sci-fi author and accused child molester Edward Kramer. Now he’s asked the judge to postpone the trial until after the November 4 election.

Edward Kramer founded DragonCon, a sci-fi/fantasy and gaming convention held annually in Atlanta. He has been accused of molesting three teenage boys. Numerous delays have violated his constitutional right to a speedy trial, he says.

Read the story at the Atlanta Journal Constitution. Thanks to John C. Jackson for calling IPR’s attention to this story.

Barr, who in 2007 penned an editorial lamenting support for Genarlow Wilson, has previously advocated the distribution of child pornography, according to some.

I won't lie. Sometimes Barr confuses the heck out of me... Today, he took the bold stance of refusing to stand on the same stage as Cynthia McKinney and Ralph Nader, however, he sees no problem defending this guy?

Barr is a psycho and a schizo. There may be some really strange stuff going on with this guy.

Fits right in with his ACLU buddies. NAMBLA anyone?

And Ron Paul just refused one last chance to endorse his Republican Party nominee, John McCain to endores his real Party’s nominee, Bob Barr - defender of sex offender sci-fi fanboy.

Bob Barr plays footsies with the ACLU that defends the right for adult men to have sex with children. Bob Barr defends this man that allegedly molested three boys. It seems there is a pattern here and to me it is disturbing. Of course Ron Paul supports Barr. Go figure. Bunch of losers.

Not much confuses me about Bob Barr. He started out as a young Dem protesting the Vietnam War, worked for ACLU, and now defends the worse sort of predator. I am not a Bob Barr fan period.

Actually, you missed it, Paul didn’t endorse Barr, he endorsed Ralph Nader, Chuck Baldwin, and.. wait for it.. Cynthia McKinney. Barr refused to join and asked Paul to join him instead...

It has been a strange day.

Even Barr doesn’t want anything to do with RP.

Just more proof that the hard left is pulling Paul’s strings.

THIS GOP LEADER IS BOB BARR.

The pro-life, pro-family, pro-WOT, anti-Clinton conservative Republican warrior in the House Republicans

THIS SELLOUT LOSERTARIAN IS NOT BOB BARR
The ANTI-life, ANTI-family, ANTI-WOT, Bush-hating liberal Paulite douchebag running for President

I know Bob Barr. I served with Bob Barr. Bob Barr is a friend of mine. YOU, sir (the losertarian nominee for President), are NO Bob Barr.

Bob Barr is DEAD to me, and has tragically been replaced with a Jermimah Wright clone.

Rabscuttle is not going to like this ... Bwahahahahahahaha. Nailed It!

It's the Libertarians...For a few months I started to go over to Liberty Forum. Right about when they found Elizabeth Smart. There was thread after thread of L's defending the right of sex with children if they were willing.

I deleted my account and book marl--took a long hot shower and never went back over there.
