		<description>The fact that he and his family donated heavily to the GOP wouldn't have much to do with it, would it? No matter, King George, in yet another presidential "firsts", has recinded the pardon. 

http://www.nowpublic.com/tech-biz/who-isaac-robert-toussie

Not to mention the time he spent in prison for his crime was a joke in it's own right. 

The fact that history repeats itself might have something to do with the fact that it is so profitable for so few, and so many pay for it. Time and again.

		<description>Harry,

Guess I should have put the sarcasm flag on when I spoke about Timmy doing anything to get rid of the illegals.  I've been in the county now for almost four years and been lurking and posting on this blog for about three years now.</description>

		<description>Come on, now. That obviously doesn't mean EVERYBODY. What would our country be like if all of us obeyed the law? :-)

As a law enforcement officer, don't hold me to a higher standard than yourself. Not fair. Everyone should be treated alike.</description>

		<description>Did anyone notice the Potomac News today endorsed the Rule of Law? Absolutely shocking.

"Our society is one driven and maintained by the rule of law. Obedience to the law and punishment for those who break the law are the cornerstones of our functioning society. And we expect the

		<description>henry, your right, people do think Hill is a good "manager." The problem is the Sheriff needs to be a leader as well as a manager and Glendell lacks leadership skills necessary to run the sheriff's office.
 
This doesn't mean he is a bad manager, he just needs a leader to guide him.</description>

		<description>I am still amazed at the number of experts who first fabricate, then quote as fact, statistical data about the Sheriff's Office. (eg. budget increases, manpower increases, etc)

Greg is right, it is the same old same old crap by, might I add the same old losers. 

It is a real fact, that close to 90% of the people who voted in the county, City of Mannassa, and Manassas Park. believed that Hill does have the ability to manage the Sheriff's Office. 

I would like to see some real discussion about just what the duties and responcibilities are, and how the cooperation is or isn't working. Greg - maybe you can start that thread since the only 3 people in the world who don't get it can only glum to this one. -</description>

		<description>Good Time Charlie.....Bingo!!  Hill is not going to change any policies
without the permission of King Charlie.  Deputies have been told that
termination will be the result of any arrest they make.  What kind of
law enforcement is that???

No, Greg...I wasn't picking on your children.  I'll leave that one to Mr
Staples.</description>

		<description>My only question of Glen Hill is why he immediately suspended radar enforcement, and removed radar eqyipment, and ticket books from road deputies who were properly trained to enforce violations they observed while conducting civil process duties. Cost of enforcement couldn't have been the issue. Duplication of services (an argument created by Charlie Deane) couldn't have been it. The PWCSO was reporting all radar enforcement planning, and results to PWCPD Special Operations Bureau. There is clearly a need for greater traffic enforcement in PWC. I travel though PWC frequently on both ends and rarely see patrol officers engaged in active enforcement.

If deputies are clear of service of civil papers early during the work day, what do they do now? Deputies under Stoffregen were ticketing violations they observed during light service days. I'm not a Glen Hill basher. The exposure I had to him was always pleasant, and I was impressed with the level of cooperation he offered other law enforcement agencies.

But I thought loading his staff with Charlie Deane's police supervisors, and falling in line with Deane's "duplication of services" election spin showed some leadership weakness. Citizens of PWC do not get more "bang for the buck" with Hill as your Sheriff. Additionally, the Chief of Police has become more powerful by helping Glen Hill get elected. He clearly stated he was "protecting his turf " by trying to limit the enforcement initiatives established by Stoffregen. Convincing Hill to hire police supervisors as staff members only adds to the high level of control that Deane has over future enforcement of laws in PWC.

This wouldn't be an issue if honest citizens in PWC were safer now than they were 20 years ago, when Deane became the C.O.P.  We now have deputies riding around the streets of PWC putting in 8 hours, wearing a gun, and a badge, with the authority to enforce the same laws as our police department.....while watching common violations, and minor criminal violations occur with no ability to enforce them. PWC tax payers are not getting the best efforts from deputies. And it all points to the top. I would like to see Sheriff Hill change his enforcement policies.</description>

		<description>Greg, how utterly horrible that this sheriff thing pisses you off!!!  Yeah, I
guess all this crap about the pervert deputy is just your usual case of
"horse puckey", like you said.  If it had been a Latino instead of the
deputy, you would have been howling your head off.  I guess you've
answered the question as to whether he is a friend of yours.  Holy Cow.
Maybe he has some photos of your little girl.  Why don't you ask him?</description>

"Or maybe you don’t know the difference between a Democrat and a Republican is the problem."
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
Does the idea of "Don't get stuck on stupid" ring &lt;em&gt;any&lt;/em&gt; bells for you here?  Just keep it up.  Ask Mike Messier how this kind of garbage worked out for him.  His campaign was chock-full of this crap, and he got absolutely crushed as a result.  Messier outraged so may people with this that I saw six year old volunteers out with their parents putting up door hangers for Hill before the election.  A lot of folks didn't care who Messier was running against, they just couldn't stand his utterly disgusting campaign.

All this seems disturbingly similar to your comments.</description>

Pull your head out of the sand, take off your rose colored glasses and look at the incompetence in sheriff's office. That's what I am talking about, I couldn't careless about Stoffregen. Looking at Glendell's record, do you really think he is a Republican? Or maybe you don't know the difference between a Democrat and a Republican is the problem.</description>

		<description>If you want to go this route again and attack Glen Hill, at least do us the courtesy of coming up with new lies.  These old ones have been debunked, and frankly, I'm tired of hearing them.

Better yet, come up with a decent policy debate.  The question of what the proper role of the Sheriff's Department should be in the larger law enforcement effort is ripe for a lot of discussion, but that never happens because all the old Stoffy hangers-on get all caught up in garbage personal attacks based on little more than horse puckey.  That tactic prevents discussion of real issues, and just ends up pissing me off.  I'm tired of it.

And based on the results of the last primary election, it would seem that's EXACTLY where the vast majority of the electorate is.  Get a clue.</description>

		<description>Hangers on of Lee Stoffregen have nothing to do with the incompetence
going on in the sheriff's department, and "Here We Are", I don't know
where you have your head but I have a pretty good idea.  If you think
this sheriff's dept is so good, you haven't been listening to some deputies
talk about their sheriff.
With all the talk about cut-backs and trimming the budget, nothing is
being offered up to trim the sheriff's budget.  He just manipulated a nice
big raise this year.  Yeah, real financially responsible, right?  And honesty??
The sheriff is the biggest liar who ever came down the pike.  Get your
head out of your butt.</description>

" We have an outstanding Sheriff and his Deputies and they run an outstanding office of honesty, respect and financially responsible."


In 2003 and again in 2007, Glendell Hill ran for county sheriff on the promise of cutting public safety services to the people of Prince William County and he has kept his promise.

What are the benefits to the people of Prince William County?

1)	Less public safety services.
2)	13 full time deputies have been added to beef up the sheriff’s office.
3)	2.2 million dollars has been added to fatten up the sheriff’s office operations budget.

It’s a Republican’s dream? 

Less work, increased staff, increased spending of taxpayer money and the voters don’t know the difference between a Democrat and a Republican.</description>
