Interview with Bob Barr
When he was a congressman, Bob Barr was a little schizophrenic when it came to protecting liberty. He was a steadfast defender of property rights and privacy, for example, but was dreadful when it came to the drug war. He once suggested, for example, that the federal government use RICO statutes to prosecute advocates of decriminalization. That would include entities such as NORML, the Drug Policy Alliance, and, well, me.
