Tim Hugo: Cleanup In The 40th District, Governor
By Greg L | 13 October 2007 | Fairfax County | No Comments
Here’s a letter that Delegate Tim Hugo recently sent to Governor Kaine. Apparently his opponent, the ever amusing leftist Rex Simmons thinks that Delegate Hugo somehow has the power to dictate torture as a policy for the treatment of military prisoners in Iraq. Tim Hugo is now demanding that Kaine, as the highest elected leader of the Democrats, start policing up some of the party’s bad behavior. It’s long overdue.
The Honorable Tim Kaine
Commonwealth of Virginia
Office of the Governor
Patrick Henry Building, 3rd Floor
1111 East Broad Street
Richmond, Virginia 23219Dear Governor Kaine:
In the time that I have known you, while we have not always agreed on every political issue, I have always found you to be a decent man of sound character.
Thus, I was extremely surprised and disappointed that the Democratic Party of Virginia, with you as titular head, has chosen to libelously accuse me of being a under investigation, being a war profiteer, and of being complicit in torturing Iraqi citizens. My opponent, Rex Simmons, hopefully without your approval and support, has stated that I have helped to bring “us the horrors of Abu Ghraib” Iraqi prison torture.
Politics is a rough-and-tumble, full contact sport. But, for most people, there is a line of decency that you simply do NOT cross. Falsely accusing a sitting Member of the Virginia House of Delegates – or any Virginian for that matter – of criminal acts and of being complicit in atrocities against another human being crosses that line of decency.
As a good father, I ask you to consider how you would respond when a child or family member asks you why someone would falsely accuse you of complicity in human torture. As a man of honor, I call on you to direct the Democratic Party of Virginia to issue a retraction and an apology to me and my family.
Tim Hugo
Delegate
Virginia’s 40th District
What is it with Democrats this year? They are getting absolutely goofy with these mailings.
