WEYERS CAVE, Virginia (AP) A liberal blogger who was manhandled by Republican U.S. Sen. George Allen's supporters earlier in the week was handcuffed and taken away by police Saturday after an Allen backer claimed the man pushed him to the ground at a campaign rally. A deputy sheriff said Mike Stark was not under arrest but was placed in "investigative detention" in case supporters of Allen who is in a tight race with Democrat Jim Webb wanted to press charges.
The incident occurred at the end of a rally at the Shenandoah Valley Regional Airport after Allen supporters continually jockeyed to position themselves between Allen and Stark, who said he wanted to ask the senator about his arrest record. An Albemarle County court index book shows two summonses issued for Allen in 1974, but supporting documents were destroyed long ago. Allen has said he offenses were for fishing without a license and unpaid parking tickets.
As Stark tried to sidestep the human wall formed to shield Allen at Saturday's rally, he brushed past a person who then fell. A deputy sheriff grabbed Stark, put the man's arm behind his back and led him away to the cheers of about 100 Allen supporters.

They have to lock up this raving maniac before he seriously hurts some one.
This Stark moron sounds as though he may be "The Mother Of All Useful Idiots."
I can't help but wonder if Mike Stark is on the payroll of Hillary.
I was listening to some radio show last night ... guy subbing for Mark Levin - and he said this same guy also had to be evicted from one of Sean Hannity's Freedom Concerts.
Is this the same guy that has been hired by the BANKRUPT AIR AMERICA???
Stalker Stark strikes again.
The reporting generally is really getting out of hand.
There is a boatload of media bias here. For those who did not see the entire episode, just this guy being taken down, he was aggressively and violently trying to get to Allen. Remember Bobby Kennedy. Senator Allen needs and should have police protection from this guy. (An aside: I just saw Algore on the tv campaigning for some dem and he is just enormously FAT.)
Why do liberals love to go to conservative events?
Moonbat on the left. Pun intended.
I would think he's on the payroll of Rove.
Who's next on their all-star lineup? Fred Phelps?
Stark and Phelps?
Could be, because Stark must certainly be praying for somebody to beat him senseless, leave bruises and marks all over him, so he can go on camera screaming "George Allen did this to meeeeeeeee!!!!"
I'm considering that Stark might possibly be the love child of Keith Olbermann and Chrissie Matthews.
He's got the temperament.
JUST DAMN that dude don't give up
I wonder how would he feel if Deacon Jones smack him upside of the head
Is he any relation to Pete Stark??
I wonder if this nutcase is related to Rep Pete Stark, Dem-CA.
