Executive abuse and Iraq war authorization questioned

Barr's paradoxical defense of liberty in a drug war stance

Jacob Sullum argues Bob Barr, Georgia congressman and former federal prosecutor, mixes strong civil liberties advocacy with hardline drug policies. Barr fought assault weapon limits, questioned secret immigration evidence, opposed a national ID, and supported some Patriot Act elements, yet his drug War stance harms Fourth Amendment protections and undermines privacy. Sullum concludes Barr remains a rare libertarian ally on rights but inconsistent on drug policy.
