Mike Stark has a huge following on Daily Kos. He is a man of real courage and creativity. After the now famous "macaca" slur by Virginia Senator George Felix Allen, Mike confronted Allen at a campaign event and asked him point blank if he had ever used the "N" word. Allen's negative response, we soon learned from old college teammates, was a lie.
Some weeks back, a diarist on Daily Kos posted that Allen had sealed arrest records and encouraged Virginia Kossacks to go investigate. I helped perform CPR on that diary while it was expiring because I wanted to know what was in those records!
Well we still don't know what is in those records, but Mike Stark, at a campaign event today, asked the Senator point blank. The response? Mike was grabbed, put in a head lock, and brought to the ground by Allen staffers. Apparently, Allen would rather the world not know about those arrest records -- especially not now, one week before the election, when the candidate with integrity (Jim Webb) is passing him up in the polls!
Mike Stark plans to sue George Felix Allen, as he notes in this letter to NBC.
So very interesting: Mike Stark, a Marine for four years, Jim Webb and John Kerry, both also veterans, are getting attacked by cowards who never served yet try to pretend that they speak for the men and women in our armed forces. I don't think their strategy is going to work much longer...
