Barr, who was a Republican Congressman from 1995-2003, was known as one of the most conservative members of Congress with one paper describing him as &#8220;the idol of the gun-toting, abortion fighting, IRS hating hard right wing of American politics.&#8221; Barr is best known for his role in the Clinton impeachment trial, but his vehement criticism of the Bush administration&#8217;s policies on civil liberties and privacy issues after the September 11th attacks began his separation from the Republican Party. He has changed his position on a number of issues such as abortion and same-sex marriage in a Libertarian direction  and nearly two years ago he became a self-described card carrying Libertarian. He announced his presidential candidacy with the Libertarian   Party earlier this year and a study found him polling at 6% of the national vote. <\/p>\n<p><em>GUEST: Bob Barr, Libertarian Party Presidential Candidate, former Republican Congressman<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>| the entire program Libertarian Party candidate for President Bob Barr showed up at the Republican National Convention last week to mingle with his old friends in the GOP.
