…in our<\/i> world, no less<\/a>. A brand-new LiveJournal weblog exists to document Loudoun County Tax Assessor Todd Kaufman’s brave battle against the dark forces of First Amendment defenders. You could say that it’s lame and testy and more than just a little bit tetched, but it ain’t easy to compete in this arena. And while it may not be the better part of valor to come into a duel of wits half-cocked, I think Todd and\/or his brother-in-law deserve credit for not just whimpering in the corner. It’s a matter of principle, dammit!, even if, like Todd and his anonymous defender, you have the principle ass-backwards.<\/p>\n

Seriously: Whoever truly loves Mr. Kaufman should consider having a little chat with him. It’s not rare for a boneheaded political hack to stuff his foot into his mouth<\/a>, but a true friend would try to help him find a way to stop chewing.
