Bob Barr, the former Republican House member from Georgia Congress turned 2008 Libertarian Party presidential candidate, is seeking a political comeback by running for Congress again. He is running to replace GOP Rep. Phil Gingrey, who is running for the seat of retiring Republican Sen. Saxby Chambliss.

“When I return to the Conress (sic), I will once again fight day and night to demand accountability and punishment for any IRS staffers or government officials involved in persecuting individuals for their political or religious beliefs,” Barr said in a fundraising solicitation Monday.
