No, I don't know him personally, but I can tell you Tucson and Flagstaff are both very left-leaning liberal bastions in Arizona and you need to careful what comes out of both areas... when you take a look at Mark Potok I would take anything he says about anyone with a very large grain of salt, he sounds like he'd get along fine with Meghan McCain, but not very well with a right-leaning, conservative.

First, let me say that what you just said is a very good rebuttal to the article in question, don’t get me wrong.

I’m just TIRED of having to apologize for every candidate I support. I’m just whining about the baggage. Again, what you said is a very good rebuttal, and I’d probably use it myself, but it doesn’t address every single point in the article.

For example, is it true that he was violent with his past 2 wives? Is it even true that he HAD 2 wives previously? Did he try to join the Border Patrol before his Minuteman efforts?

These are all questions that quite frankly, while may be “puffed up” by some leftist hack journalist, aren’t necessarily complete fabrications. After all, if they were/are, then Mr. Simcox has a pretty good case for libel against whoever wrote that piece.

Addendum to my post 132:

Apparently someone named Tim Vanderpool wrote the article meandog posted. Again, if the claims in the article are completely false, Mr. Simcox should be willing to at least say so publicly and quickly if not take Mr. Vanderpool to court.

I’m not trying to be a wet towel here, but really, again, I’m tired of being these potential candidates’ apologists. I’ll BET you this stuff is gonna come out in the primaries.
