How do they sleep at night?

As I've heard Ann Northrop say more than once, "How do they sleep at night?".

Bob Barr, Georgia Republican and the House impeachment manager during the Clinton impeachment travesty, is suing Clinton, James Carville and Larry Flint for $30 million, claiming "loss of reputation and emotional distress". (This is a Salon Premium article, so unless you're a subscriber you'll only see the beginning.)

Barr has quietly filed a suit against Clinton, Carville and Flynt for "participating in a common scheme and unlawful on-going conspiracy to attempt to intimidate, impede and/or retaliate against [Barr]" for his role as an impeachment manager in 1999.

At the same time, he's championing a bill that would limit non-economic medical damages to $250,000, saying "a national liability insurance crisis is ravaging the nation's healthcare system."

There's a mention of the lawsuit in the Washington Post, but not the bill limiting damages.

Speaking of Bob Barr... here is a nice little anecdote that was reported on the local NBC affiliate, plus the Alanta Journal and Constitution, about him calling an airport guard an "idiot little nigger".
