Author's note: This post originally appeared on my LiveJournal account, but I've decided that since Mr. DeVore is running for Senate, it's worth posting here for a wider audience to see. This is the same as the original post, except that dead links have been mostly cleaned up. Also, ocblog.net is defunct now, and the posts have been moved over to redcounty.com, but not the comments, it seems.
My original post from July 1, 2007, and the comments from Chuck DeVore, are below
