I just found an endorsement from Barr for Eric Holder for AG. I have withdrawn my support for the Libertarian Party, Bob Barr and cancelled my membership from the NRA and sent emails letting them know why. It worked for Zumbo...

Can't get the link to work.

It says,
"The file is damaged, and can't be repaired?

Anyone else getting this message?

Did you try to copy and paste? Sometimes that works when links won't. (Link worked for me)

I'm not trying to stir the pot here, but I'm not seeing the link between Bob Barr/Eric Holder and the NRA. Can you help me understand?

Bob Barr is, or was, on the Board of the NRA.

it seems like all the good old boys will support each other no matter how much they pretend to oppose each other. its just us thats slow to wake up or even bury our heads in the sand. there was no difference between McCain, Obama, Clinton, bush, Barr, ect.

Dittos did it too. Guess I look into the Constitution Party.

Constitution Party seems like a right wing Christian deal.

Not seeing a problem with that myself!

If you are a Christian and believe that. I am not, so they won't work for me. Some of their platform smacks right against freedoms and wants to legislate morality. I believe some of it would violate the church and state thingy. I have a problem with that and is why I don't support Republicans or Democrats. The Libertarian Party was the closest thing to being in line with the Constitution I have found, but the "leader" has abandoned that princible. So my search will continue. Good luck with it, though.

Update to letters to the LP and the NRA.
Libertarian Party - No reply
National Rifle Association - No Reply
Libertarian Party of Colorado - Several emails back and forth.

It seems that the LPCO takes the matter somewhat seriously. Whatever. If you are not a Libertarian, you probably don't care.

If you are a member of the NRA you should and should contact the NRA and express concern if not outrage by the fact that a board member of th NRA endorsed Eric Holder for AG. I see this as kind of a Jim Zumbo thing, where we can hold those supporting doing away with 2A accountable. Under the upcoming administration we will need all of the help we can get and the NRA being the largest gun "rights" .org in Washinton (spare me the bad nra stuff, I have heard it and agree) they should be held accountable to their members espcially when some one from their own BOD endorses a gun banner. Call and write the NRA and oppose Bob Barr's letter.
