How can anyone forget his unwavering integrity in the Monica days...
Here's a bit on the man that I doubt he will be featuring on his site:

Jun 14, 2002 | When the news finally broke -- because porn magnate
Larry Flynt sent out his own press release -- that Rep. Bob Barr, R-
Ga., had filed a lawsuit in March against Bill Clinton, pundit James
Carville and Flynt for $30 million, claiming "loss of reputation and
emotional distress," the timing couldn't have been much more awkward
for Barr. That very day, he was championing a bill that would cap
damage awards for "pain and suffering" at $250,000.
This week, at a hearing of the House Judiciary Commercial and
Administrative Law Subcommittee, which he chairs, Barr heaped praise
on a bill that would limit so-called non-economic medical damages to
$250,000, saying "a national liability insurance crisis is ravaging
the nation's healthcare system."
So how can someone who wants to limit awards for pain and suffering
sue the former president and others for a whopping $30 million in
emotional distress?

The guy's a tool. Now that he's lost his seat in Congress, he's
suddenly anti-government. Just like all the guys who go to jail and
suddenly "find Jesus".
