No one can accuse Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli of shying
from controversy. In his first four months in office, Cuccinelli
directed public universities to remove sexual orientation from their
anti-discrimination policies, attacked the Environmental Protection
Agency, and filed a lawsuit challenging federal health care reform. Now,
it appears, he may be preparing a legal assault on an embattled
proponent of global warming theory who used to teach at the University
of Virginia, Michael
Mann.
| NOTE: Virginia places a four year term limit on its governor, but with people
like Cuccinelli in the wings, no problemo. When the time comes, I like
Governor Bob McDonnell to take Jim Webb's senate seat. And he will,
too.
|
Among the documents Cuccinelli demands are any and all emailed or
written correspondence between or relating to Mann and more than 40
climate scientists, documents supporting any of five applications for
the $484,875 in grants, and evidence of any documents that no longer
exist along with proof of why, when, and how they were destroyed or
disappeared. [Oh, Mann: Cuccinelli targets UVA papers in Climategate salvo]

of Bob McDonnell, this will tickle the crap out of you, or
should. The overwrought lede reveals the mindset of Zachary Roth,

In Latest Rightward Shift, McDonnell Lets VA Police Pray To Jesus
It's not long the worst thing he's done since taking office, but
Virginia governor Bob McDonnell is certainly leaving little doubt as to
who he's listening to.
McDonnell, a Republican, yesterday quietly reversed a policy,
instituted under the previous governor, Democrat Tim Kaine, prohibiting
Virginia State Police troopers from referring to Jesus Christ in public
prayers.
"The Governor does not believe the state should tell chaplains of any
faith how to pray,'' a spokesman for the governor told
the Washington Post.
