THE FORMS FLOOD IN
9 June 2006 | 50th HOD District | 1 Comment
The delegate applications for the 50th District of the House of Delegates are in, and the raw numbers are:
Manassas City: 625
Prince William County: 200
Manassas Park: 90
Provided all of these delegate applications are accepted and everyone attends, it’s going to be a pretty full house at Osborn High School on the 17th. Delegate check-in is scheduled […]
ENDORSEMENT RACE: MILLER CRUSHES
9 June 2006 | 50th HOD District | Comments Off
An important part of any candidacy is obtaining endorsements. Between now and the convention there’s going to be a race to obtain the endorsements of other elected officials, but a number of public officials have already weighed in. Here’s how both candidates have fared so far:
Jackson Miller:
David Mabie, Prince William County Clerk of […]

BATTLEGROUND: STONEWALL
8 June 2006 | Prince William County, 50th HOD District | 3 Comments
It appears that a significant battleground in Prince William County in the 50th HOD District is none other than the Stonewall Precinct. Stonewall isn’t too remarkable from the neighboring precincts, but for some reason it’s turned up as a treasure trove of convention delegates for both candidates. Sonny Lawrence, the precinct captain for […]

WHATCHA THINK OF THIS?

[Ed Note: graphic removed]
I’ll be establishing a legal defense fund, and am thinking of offering a t-shirt through cafepress. These will be available for purchase online.
Here’s a sample of the graphics that I’m considering for the shirt. The top graphic would be on the front, and the helmet on the back. I’d […]
MOLLEUR: WHAT’S NEXT, UFOS?
6 June 2006 | Humor & Satire, Prince William County | 3 Comments
Robert Molleur apparently felt compelled to write a bizarre letter to the editor that was printed in the Potomac News today, which is provided below. This laughably inaccurate depiction of the events surrounding the implosion of the Steve Chapman campaign twists the facts of the matter into something that reminds me of conspiracy theories […]

WON’T TOUCH THAT
6 June 2006 | Blogs, Humor & Satire | 2 Comments
This blog has made some pretty bold statements regarding candidates for office, but I don’t think anything compares to labelling a candidate the Devil incarnate. If pointing out information about a candidates performance, experience, and qualifications for office is enough to land you in court, I just have to wonder when NLS is going […]
JUNE 6TH IS D-DAY
6 June 2006 | Patriotism | 5 Comments
On June 6th, 1944, the 29th Infantry Division landed on Omaha Beach. That unit was comprised of National Guard soldiers from Maryland and Virginia who suffered terrible casualties on that day in the ultimately victorious struggle to preserve liberty and freedom in the world.
Few of those men remain with us today. You may […]
CARROLL WEIMER CALLING
5 June 2006 | 50th HOD District | 8 Comments
Carroll Weimer’s campaign called me this evening right after we finished dinner. There was a very nice lady on the phone who wanted to sugn me up as a delegate, but misstated a number of key points about the process of the special election and had to think hard to remember who Weimer was […]
HAYMARKET SHENANIGANS
5 June 2006 | Prince William County | 5 Comments
Haymarket seems to be a place where the police have unusual latitude to harass law-abiding citizens when it suits their purposes. When an officer failed to follow proper procedures and was called on it, his response was apparently to swear out a warrant for the citizen’s arrest (on a misdemeanor, no less!) for making […]
ALL THE DELEGATES MONEY CAN BUY
4 June 2006 | 50th HOD District | Comments Off
I find telephone calls from political campaigns one of those annoyances you just have to deal with. When a candidate himself calls, I don’t mind. When a local activist calls, I can handle that. But when it’s some hired firm from Nebraska or something, that’s really annoying. Just because a campaign is awash in trial […]

BVBL AN EASY TARGET?
4 June 2006 | Blogs | 12 Comments
It’s been easy for the press and some leaders to blame anonymous bloggers for much that is wrong with the current political discourse. In some ways, I think that’s just a convenient way to whine about an issue rather than resolve it. In many cases, anonymous bloggers aren’t worth reading, but other times these folks […]
10th CD CHALLENGER
3 June 2006 | Humor & Satire, US Congress | 7 Comments
I hear this guy will challenge Frank Wolf for the 10th Congressional District. Does anyone know anything about this Feder character other than that he is a professor at Georgetown? I can’t imagine some liberal academic is going to stand much of a chance against a strong incumbent like Frank.
UPDATE: I hear this guy […]
GILL & GALLINGER COMPLAINT
3 June 2006 | Blogs | 1 Comment
I’ve received word that an ethics complaint has been filed against Gill & Gallinger on May 31st. It alleges 12 separate counts of professional misconduct regarding the initial threat letter that was sent to BVBL. Additional complaints may also have been filed. I don’t have access to the proceedings, so I don’t […]

MANASSAS PARK IS IN!
2 June 2006 | Manassas Park, 50th HOD District | 2 Comments
Manassas Park has finally joined the fray and has published delegate forms. The race is now on for this smaller, but vitally important part of the 50th District. Delegate forms must be received by 5PM on June 8th. I haven’t seen a call issued yet, but it should appear in the MJM very shortly. I […]
VOTER REGISTRATION CARD MIXUP
2 June 2006 | Prince William County | 3 Comments
I understand that the registrar sent out incorrect voter registration cards to voters who were formerly in the Catharpin precinct in Prince William County. That precinct was dissolved, and some voters who are in the Battlefield precinct are incorrectly identified as being in the Glenkirk precinct. If you’re unsure if this affects you, you can […]

THE PRICE OF FREEDOM IS ETERNAL VIGILANCE
1 June 2006 | Blogs | 15 Comments
Protecting liberty isn’t something you do sitting on the couch. I’ve seen people wear useless little ribbons that represent the protection of free speech or make other pointless public displays that make themselves feel good, but do nothing to protect our constitutional liberties. Yeah, so when it costs you nothing, you protect liberty. […]

LAWSUIT FILED!
1 June 2006 | Blogs | 29 Comments
I just got a call from a reporter who asked for me to comment on the lawsuit filed by Steve Chapman. Chapman has filed against me and BVBL and is seeking $200,000 in damages.
Chapman and his attorney can BITE ME.
UPDATE:
Here is the filiing by Jad Sansour, Esq of Gill & Gallinger:
