Gay newspaper covers ex-‘Public Enemy No. 1’ Barr

The Southern Voice, an Atlanta gay-themed alternative newspaper, has an 1,800-word piece on Libertarian presidential nominee Bob Barr’s evolution on gay issues. The story says Barr was “once gay Public Enemy No. 1 for the Defense of Marriage Act.” The story has quotes from several Georgia gays who remain critical of Barr, and also from Outright Libertarians Chair Rob Power, who “said while pleased with Barr’s change of heart on DOMA, he was disappointed to hear Barr wants to repeal only part of the law.”
