Jay O’Brien Readies A Rematch
2 February 2010 | 39th VA Senate | 9 Comments
Seeing how Senator George Barker has been voting lately (see here and here), it’s a great comfort to learn that Jay O’Brien is gearing up a campaign to take back the 39th District. Barker defeated Jay O’Brien in 2007 by less than 800 votes at a time when the Republican nominee in the 51st District […]

George Barker: Screw The 10th Amendment
1 February 2010 | 39th VA Senate | 5 Comments
Our esteemed Senator George Barker, representing the 39th Senate District which covers part of Prince William County, voted against the bi-partisan majority that passed SB 283 through the Senate today in another stunning example of a liberal politician wrapping themselves in the thin camouflage of “moderate” garb. Barker must think it’s a great idea to […]

George Barker: I Luv Dem Undocumented Voters
27 January 2010 | 39th VA Senate | 7 Comments
Given the opportunity to decide on whether voters should have to show identification at the polls, Senator George Barker voted today to kill SB 134 which would have established such a requirement. Current law is such that if someone shows up to the polls without any identification, they can sign a piece of paper where […]

Two Democratic Senators switched their votes on HB 1851 (introduced by Scott Lingamfelter R-31st) today and made the difference in upholding the Governor/DNC Chairman’s veto of a bill that would allow active duty and reserve military personnel to be excepted from Virginia’s “one gun a month” rule. George Barker and Chuck Colgan, who had previously […]

Measuring the “Faisal Gill Effect”
9 November 2007 | 39th VA Senate | 15 Comments
There’s been a lot of discussion around what happened in the 39th Senate District and what the real cause of Jay O’Brien’s defeat was. One popular theory is that having Jay O”Brien forced to campaign alongside the relatively unpopular Faisal Gill was the proximate cause of his defeat, but there’s little evidence in the election […]

George Barker’s Agenda
27 October 2007 | 39th VA Senate | 18 Comments
Now that George Barker’s comments regarding teaching “alternative lifestyles” to schoolchildren have been pointed out to voters, the Razing Kaine crowd has sprung into action. They’re outraged that someone might have the temerity to point out that mandating that public schools teach the children in their care about the “GLBT lifestyle” with your tax […]
George Barker Offers Up Some Disturbing Imagery

Don’t they cover this sort of thing at candidate school? This is a picture of George Barker, who is running in the 39th Senate District, that appeared in a recent print edition Fairfax Connection newspapers.

George Barker: Throwing In The Towel On Illegal Aliens
27 September 2007 | 39th VA Senate, Illegal Aliens | 1 Comment
Courtesy of the RSLC. George Barker really is this bad on the illegal alien problem, and I hope he gets hit on it hard and often. I do love it when candidates pander to the RK crowd and give me ammunition like this.

O’Brien/Barker and Lingamfelter/Day Debate
14 September 2007 | 39th VA Senate, 31st HOD District | 14 Comments
Tonight the Prince William County Committee of 100 held a debate between Senator Jay O’Brien and George Barker, and Delegate Scott Lingamfelter and William Day. As far as debates go, this was somewhat sub-par, with some goofy questions and not a whole lot of focus on the issues that are really at the top of […]
