Bloggers' Conference Call With A.G. Bob McDonnell

Attorney General Bob McDonnell is one of those men that we want to shake hands with and have our pictures taken standing next to because we know in our gut this guy is going places. To me, as an outside observer, he really seems to have come into his own since he took office as Attorney General.

This evening he held a bloggers' conference call and answered the questions with confidence and depth. Bloggers participating were United Conservatives of VA, The Jefferson Mammoth, One Man's Trash , Too Conservative and Not Larry Sabato.

My question concerned the appeal coming up tomorrow in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 7th Circuit Chicago. The ACLU would like to suppress the Boy Scouts of America because their oath contains "duty to God". This suppression would prohibit the Scouts from gathering on government property. That would mean there woud be no 100th Anniversary Jamboree in 2010 at Fort A.P. Hill, Virginia. AG McDonnell's office has written an amicus brief on behalf of the Scouts and the Dept. of Defense and he was optimistic about the outcome.

Kudos to J. Tucker Martin, Director of Communications for Mr. McDonnell. They could really use you in the White House right now.

Good Job on the question... right on time!!! (Today's news 4/6/6)

I put up a lot of McDonnell signs this year in Augusta County (and thank God Creigh Deeds people didn't go all out here), and I took the day off to participate in the recount (proof is in the post)

Bob is a great AG, and what I thought was really cool, was LT Gov. Bill Bolling lending staff to the AG for the recount... If Bob had lost the recount, he would have been a far less "marketable" candidate for Statewide office in 09'... Bill proved to be a good Pub, looking out for the "Party" RPV, by helping Bob.
