Nationally recognized, Georgia-based , pro-enforcement immigration watchdog group announces that Bob Barr has been named \u201cleast favorite\u201d candidate in the race to replace Dr. Phil Gingrey in Georgia\u2019s 11th congressional district.<\/p>\n

Today, Dustin Inman Society president D.A. King announced his organization\u2019s naming of former ACLU lobbyist Bob Barr as \u201cleast favorite\u201d candidate in 11th congressional district\u2019s Republican primary contest for the U.S. House. Established in 2005, this is the first time in the group\u2019s history that such a designation has been made. King says has nothing against Barr personally.<\/p>\n

Mr. King notes that many blogs and news outlets, including Barr\u2019s home-county newspaper, the Marietta Daily Journal<\/a> and the editors at the conservative National Review magazine have accurately noted the \u201cweathervane\u201d (\u201cWeather Vane Bob Barr, September 30, 2013<\/a>\u201d) approach to politics presented by former Libertarian candidate, Bob Barr. In describing it as a desire to return to the \u201cNexus,\u201d well-known blogger, radio host and Fox News commentator, Eric Erickson has used his conservative Redstate blog<\/a> to warn readers on sending Barr back to congress.<\/p>\n

The editors at National Review: \u201cThe good news is that whatever you think about the major issues of the day, at some point in the past two decades, Bob Barr agreed with you. The bad news is he may set a record for the most pieces of legislation a congressman voted for and then later renounced.\u201d<\/p>\n

As a candidate for another political party and just seven years after the horror of 9\/11, Bob Barr apparently suggested that President George W. Bush be impeached for his measures against terrorism for crying out loud\u201d noted D.A. King. \u201cFlip-flopping on the War on Drugs, Defense of Marriage, National security legislation, and Right-to-Life topics should be concerning to all self-described conservatives\u201d King continued, \u201cbut our focus is on immigration related matters and Barr is all over the political map on this issue. Much of Barr\u2019s support is coming from a Tea Party leader in Cherokee County\u201d said an astonished King. He doesn\u2019t think they read Nat\u2019l Review. <\/p>\n

King says his biggest concerns are the past statements from Barr on regulating the numbers of immigrants, legalization of illegal aliens and workplace verification. \u201cAfter voting to establish what is now called E-Verify while in congress as a Republican in 1996, Barr is now opposed to the no-cost use of the job protection tool\u201d marveled King. \u201cThis, in addition to his ongoing position that immigration be limited only for terrorists, criminals and the seriously ill, doesn\u2019t assure those of us who are paying attention on the causes and remedies surrounding our immigration and employment nightmare. I dare Barr to go tell the Americans standing in the unemployment line that their solution lies in more foreign workers, increased immigration and ignoring existing federal systems to keep black-market labor from American jobs.\u201d Said King.<\/p>\n

King has posted a wealth of further information detailing Barr\u2019s political \u201cbox of chocolates\u201d on the Dustin Inman Society Website<\/a>, DIS Facebook page and his Twitter account – @DAKDIS.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
