And don’t forget the beating-his-wife-on-the-front-lawn incident. How this Moron keeps getting elected I’ve never understood. The only rational explanation is that his voters are all of the people from Maryland who moved to Virginia to escape the sky-high taxes. The guy is an embarrassment and a disgrace, with no respect for anyone. Going to one of his town meetings is a nausea-inducing exercise in futility.

Also, the shady deal with the credit card companies. He was ‘swimming in credit card debt’ was allowed to consolidate (which, yes is(was) available to all), all the while passing legislation which favored the CC Companies.
Few years back, (had to be late 80’s, early 1990’s) he showed up at my VFW for a campaign visit (the Hall was open to the public for bingo and community events) but he was ‘afforded’ the privilege of visiting the bar. (Which was closed to non members of VFW).
He approached me, extended his hand and thanked me for my service. He then proceeded to campaign. I listened for a couple of seconds and asked him to move on as “I wasn’t interested” and he got a little ‘testy’.
At which point I kind of read him out, said he was a guest and would do well to move on or risk getting ejected. I also told him I was fed up with his BS.
Of course, at no time did I raise my voice or try to embarrass him....(well not really anyway).
He also had once told an opponent - a US Army (I think) 20+ year retiree that ‘he had done nothing in the line of public service’, with a later ‘explanation’ that he meant like ‘serving in soup kitchens’ or community volunteering or some such garbage.
