Former JAG attorney Col. Dick Black – a skilled campaigner who moves quickly – announced an exploratory committee. Then Delegate Bob Marshall dropped out of consideration and endorsed Black. Although Black’s political career was very active long before the tea party, he might be counted tea party consistent.

That same Tuesday when Wolf announced, an important website Virginia Virtucon http://virginiavirtucon.wordpress.com/ posted a poll with a long list of potential candidates. Virginia Delegate Barbara Comstock and Senator Dick Black have been trading first and second place. The site is followed by very politically involved Virginia activists. So it suddenly looked like conservative Dick Black could shape up into a leading contender.

The smear accuses Col. Dick Black of supporting husbands raping their wives, that Black opposed laws against spousal rape. So we have Bill Kristol’s magazine spreading the liberal “war on women” scam. This is not the first time the Weekly Standard has taken point for inaccurate hatchet jobs on conservative candidates.

However, incredibly, Dick Black actually voted for the bill in question, H.B. 488. On February 7, 2002, then Delegate Black pointed out problems with the bill – but voted for it after those problems were fixed.

Furthermore, Senator Black is the only member of the General Assembly who actually prosecuted a case of spousal rape – successfully—as a former JAG officer in the military. The Judge Advocate General attorney prosecuted many men guilty of domestic violence in general.

In the 2002 floor speech replayed in the Democrat campaign ad, it is unmistakably clear that Dick Black was pointing out that the law was unworkable as drafted. Black obviously was not arguing for spousal rape or the legal opportunity for it. It is crystal clear that Black was identifying – as a former prosecutor – how the law would have problems in the courtroom from a prosecutor’s perspective. It was rewritten and polished. Black then voted for it, all within days.

Fighting the Tea Party and calling themselves Republicans?

I don’t think so.

They aren’t Republicans.

Get in my face, you treasonous swine, and there will be consequences.

The concept of spousal rape is a significant victory for Satan. I support anyone who opposes it.

Why vote Republican, when you can just vote Democrat, and get the same deal. We don’t need any more spineless Republicans we need candidates with Sisu.

I'm going to buy a Duck Commander call and use it every time one of these GOPe pukes speaks publically. I urge all TEA Party types to do the same.

Here's the LINK to the Duck Commander site.

They are going to keep on until Conservatives, who have no ballot choice but a RINO OR a Liberal Dem, will vote for the Dems and the GOPe will slowly die.

I can't think of a more myopic strategy?

Who do these "moderates" think is going to vote for them if they should prevail?

The democrats?

I hope Rove et al are so humilated come primary season that they follow their true hearts and just join the bj clinton wing of democrat party.

Too bad RINOs can't be redirected towards the real enemy.

This fool thinks he is going to beat the TEA Party with campaign money in the primaries next year. Ted Cruz...SEN. Ted Cruz...was out-spent 8-1 by establishment GOP candidate Dewhurst in TX. How’d that work out for you?

There aren’t enough old White millionaire corporate welfare recipients to out- vote the TEA Party, stupid.

That's very 'Obama' of him. They'd better be careful about that. They're to pull back a nub.

Latourette was a mediocre Congressman, so all you should expect out of him will be support for other mediocre republicans.

And if you run into him, ask him about him telephoning his wife from DC to tell her he was divorcing her to marry a lobbyist that he was sleeping with.

A paragon of virtue and good sense he ain't.

his new political group, Defending Main Street

They could save ink and bandwidth by using the more correct name, "Defending K Street".

They can bite us this time around.

Anyone who cares enough to know who Mr. Black is will not be falling for some disinformation hit piece.

In fact, Mr. Kristol, the first donation out of my female hands may even go to Mr. Black in your honor.

Thanks for posting this Moseley. I’m looking forward to next year.
