Faith in Public Life – LCRC-style

The Loudoun County Republican Committee has invited Bishop Harry Jackson of D.C. anti-marriage fame to speak at their “Ronald Reagan Lecture Series”.
Here are the details of the event.
The Role of Faith in Public Life
“If we ever forget that we are one nation under God, then we will be a nation gone […]

Hate gets me attention; what’s the problem?

Crossposted at Loudoun Progress
The Loudoun Times-Mirror this week published a very peculiar interview with Eugene Delgaudio. The first thing that jumps out at you is the incompetence. There is video, from which the reporters (the task required two of them) extracted the most coherent parts for inclusion in the story:
Q: What do you say […]

Loudoun Progress

This is just a heads-up to let readers know of a new group blog in Loudoun for which I will be a contributor. Loudoun Progress is the joint project of four local bloggers: Paradox13 from Leesburg Tomorrow; Doorbellqueen from The True Adventures of the Doorbell Queen; Daverunner from In Through The Out Door; and myself, […]

Could Eugene Delgaudio be removed from office by citizen petition?

Yesterday, someone left a link in comments to a petition to remove Sterling Supervisor Eugene Delgaudio from office.
There is a section in the Virginia code, § 24.2-233. Removal of elected and certain appointed officers by courts, that provides a mechanism for such removal from office; this petition appears to be based on subdivision 1:
1. For […]

Virginia: A very ’special right’ to ignore the Fourteenth Amendment?

The Loudoun Times-Mirror has an article this morning linking the AG’s letter to university presidents to his anticipated opinion on the authority of our own board to update Loudoun’s Equal Employment Opportunity statement. Once again, it’s necessary to point out that in neither case do the policies prohibit “discrimination against gay, lesbian and transgender” people. […]

“Kudos, Loudoun County Supervisor Eugene Delgaudio”

Indeed, why can’t the other anti-gay, anti-trans public officials on the rampage just say what they mean? For those who missed it the first time, here’s the full news clip used by the Daily Show.
Understandably, folks are disgusted and embarrassed by this - it continues to make Loudoun County, especially Sterling, a laughing-stock. But understand […]

Activist AGs Gone Wild!

It shouldn’t have come as a surprise that our new Attorney General was going to be an unrepentant activist, after stating on the record that he intended to “transform” the office as a “platform for long-term reform.” What did everyone think he meant by that, if not his intent to use the position to advance […]

Unclear on the concept?

UPDATE: I have just learned that the Montgomery showerheads are continuing their disgusting attacks. Like Mr. Delgaudio, they are guilty of something akin to blood libel. Such people will be held accountable by history.
To the left is a handout that I created for members of the Board of Supervisors (click to view full size PDF). […]

No medal for you, pal

Meh. I’m going to have to give this performance a low score. Described to me as “classic Gozé,” it’s essentially the same program he performed four (okay, five) years ago; for crying out loud, at least come up with a new trick or two. I’m afraid that Paul Gozé’s career high point was the time […]

“Controversy” over county hiring policy based on merit takes turn for the pathetic

The grandstanding continues. In a completely unsurprising development, anti-gay ideologue Delegate Bob “Virginia’s Chief Homophobe” Marshall has requested an opinion from anti-gay ideologue AG Ken Cuccinelli on the Board of Supervisor’s amendment to our county Equal Employment Opportunity policy. Mr. Cuccinelli can issue whatever political opinion he wishes; it won’t change the reality of the […]
