Yesterday, I wrote about Sam Van Voorhis. He is the independent expenditure guy for the NRSC. People tell me, including people at the NRSC, that Van Voorhis has, in his position as independent expenditure director, directed money to Majority Strategies a/k/a NextWave Communications. Sam happens to run that shop.
You can read about it here.
Today, my preacher calls. Or, I guess I should say former preacher, though he is still my preacher. Christy and I have moved churches.
In any event, my preacher calls and says some guy named Sam Van Voorhis called demanding to know why I no longer go to church there. Sam Van Voorhis claimed to be in the Presbyterian Church of America (my denomination) and insisted on information. My preacher says Sam was rather unpleasant when they would not cooperate.
What is more interesting is that Sam called a few months ago doing the exact same thing to the church secretary. Sam needed, for some reason, to make sure I hadn’t been forced out of the church.
Sam, I think, is looking for dirt on me.
Fascinating.

You are only a target because you are effective.
Keep up the good fight.

You're over the target

Congratulations, of a sort.

Unrelated: this appears to be the same article as this one on the front page, but they have different comment lists. Did you post it once in each place, or is this a quirk associated with one article having two URLs?
This too shall pass.
This is a bug

It's a design issue

kingfish Thursday, December 4th at 12:21PM EST (link)Some Republican Consultants think the Divine Right of Kings still applies to them as the party is to them just their own private little country club. No accountability. No responsibility. Just give them y our money and votes and get lost.
Sorry, you guys have driven the Republican party and with it to some degree, the conservative movement, into the ditch. If you want to stay in the ditch, fine but we are going to leave you there despite your little punk attempts to dig up dirt on guys like Erik.
That's pretty low
jcheney Thursday, December 4th at 12:27PM EST (link)Trying to dirt from ones church is about as low as one can go. Watch out Erick, pretty soon he’ll be calling your kids school and dry cleaner.
Maybe...
itsonlywords (Diary) Thursday, December 4th at 12:28PM EST (link)Sam Voorhis should get together with Helen Jones-Kelley. They could sign each other’s copies of Down and Dirty – How to Dig Dirt and Destroy Your Enemies.
