I'd probably take the guy more seriously if he'd manage to correctly spell a 5-letter word.

There seems to be some sort of orange under the signs, like the orange signs the Democrats put up attacking the Governor, but it was not the good Governor who caused the tolls to go up but Ken Plum who for many years was on the committee and orchestrated this mess. Ken wants the tolls to go up so thay you will have to ride the subway.

I'd just like to state for the record that the RCA is not in any way connected with these signs, nor do we endorse them. (I mention this only because Rod mentions RCA in his comments.)

I think it's aimed at Malibu Ken from the Barbie line of unrealistic-body-image plastic dolls.

We Republicans (I am a progressive Republican=Ron Paul is progress) do not control the media like Democrats(I have been refused a blog on Reston Patch, Karen are youa Democrat?) but try and get a word in now and then.

Yes by all means, give Mr Koozmin a blog. Such an articulate, thoughtful, and sensible citizen.

Last I checked you could set up a blog for free on any number of websites. Then you'll just need to promote it, handmade signs seem like a nice start.

When I was on RCA (and made Citizen of the year) Ken wrote alll of us saying that he would instead of honering the 4700 citizens of Reston that signed the petition consult with various boards around Reston to see how they felt. Did you get that? Ken feels a RCC board member who might of goten elected with 200 votes by being endorsed by one of the four preemenent groups there. To Ken that was more signifient. In other words he dose not believe in Democracy for Reston but instead his world. Now he wants to stuff us into Subway cars. He wants to make it so expensive that we have to. The damn Democrats were acusing the goveernor of the rise in tols on there orange signs. But really it was Ken Plum who sat on the comission and orcastrated all of this so he can get you onto subways.

So much dose he want to deny Democracy that he removed the town charter with legislation that he introduced into the legislature from Wheelie a historic town in Reston that could of given town status to Reston and given us some say in our governance. He hates democracuy in Reston and I hate him!

The Ron Paul revolution is at stake here in Virginia. We need a victory period! And the great commonwealth has the opportunity to deliver a decisive, game changing win for Doctor Paul. We need to show the country and the other candidates that we can beat and dominate Governor Romney one on one. We need to show the country that Ron Paul is not only electable, but can win the GOP nomination and beat president Obama. Ron Paul is a once in a life time candidate. When he is elected, he will not only restore America's prosperity but he has a chance to change the world.

I by no means always spell correctly or use proper grammar. However, when addressing public forum where my credibility will be challenged, the last thing I would ever do to validate my point would be to leave my statement full of flawed language. I am sad to say I did not understand much of what's stated above due to such a large amount of phonetical errors.

I'm not a liberal supporter by any means, but this tool makes conservatives in Reston look bad. BTW he posts hateful topics about the patch, reston, and plum over at fairfax underground.

That's what ffx underground is for though.

Don't you guys get it? The guy ain't right. If he's not mentally ill, he's some kind of avantgarde comic genius. I'm starting to think that Susan keeps writing about him for some sick entertainment value.

Many folks vote without understanding who they are really voting for. The press is serving the public by keeping us informed of significant matters regarding candidates for public office.

I agree with the comments that you need to continue reporting on this individual, particulalrly since he throws himself out there as a public figure. His rants speak for themselves, and allow people to form their own judgements, and from comments here, no one is having a problem seeing just what we are dealing with.

I'm not sure who has clicked through to his new website highlighted in the article above. If you haven't, you should. It looks delusional, just like his rants, misspelling and all.

I believe the RCA & the RCCC should get their attorneys on this for a cease and desist, lest anyone get confused about the similarities.

Rod:
I want to thank you personally for all of your contributions to the
Backfence community over the past couple of years. You were one of
our most loyal and provocative members, and you kept things humming
in Reston. I'm sorry we weren't able to make a go of it--it's a long,
ugly story--but we did greatly appreciate your support.
Thanks and regards,
Mark Potts
Co-Founder, Backfence

thoughts from a book I am reading.

Chapter 2.

The decline of religious faith explains the deflection
to the Democratic Party. 50% of those who attend church
weekly describe themselves as conservatives. Only 12%
or 12 out of 100 call themselves liberals.

"The God Gap" is traced by those who study such things
to the Reagan decade when the public face of religion
turned sharply right. The media painted the public face
as a political statement to undermine the Conservative
uncontested rule of Reaganism.

Blacks though are now 75% Democrats. Yet are more likely to
say the Bible is the literal word of God. And God's word
is very important to their lives.And have a strong belief
in heaven and hell.

Christians over all have declined since 1990 from 86% of
the population to 76% in 2008. The mainline churches though
went from 50% in 1958 to 13% today.

Today a Rick Warren normative church is becoming more
prevalent than old line Christian churches.

Protestants are Democrat today by a 64% majority to a 27%
minority. Most even oppose stopping a woman's right to Abortion
or call it a political straw man and not a real issue.

It is dramatic how when you know that in 1930 the Anglican Church
lead the Christian community to celebrate Abortion as a good
thing to today how the Christian foundation of the value of life
is no longer a foundational doctrine if a doctrine at all.

Even Jews who we hold up as those who are closest to keeping
the word of God are more likely to not believe
in God's written word's, life after death, heaven and Hell.
In our legislative bodies we find Jews made up 8.4% of congress
in 2010 and in the Democratic run Senate 13%

America is changing it's basic beliefs and that change reflects
in how we are wanting to be governed. How we are being governed
will shape our destiny and the book titled death of a super power
shows a diverse society with no moral anchors, with lawlwss leaders
headed for the rocky shores of oblivian.

Ecc 10:2 The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but the heart of the fool to the left. (NIV)

Anti Plum new toll rise rally. Have a cup of coffee at Lake Ann Coffee house Sat Feb 18 9:00am free no preregistration.

Teaching your dog to absolutely sit and sit and stay. Say it only once. Every last Wednesday of the month at 4:00. February it is the 29th. You must have a proper leash and be able to take simple instructions. Must preregister $5. This can save your dogs life and your sanity and make you a very proud dog owner.

Dear Rod:

Please seek out help before you hurt yourself and others.

You're heading down a dark path.

Concerned,
W. Mack

Scott are you too against Democracy in Reston?

Well then let me ask you this Scott, If you are as you say for Democracy, what is your position regarding Plum taking away the possability of ever being a town by taking away the Whille charter. I find this a diabalical act! What is your position on this?

Rob - Your request is no appropriate for the article. The article is about you placing signs in Reston with your personal opinion. My reply was directly related to the article your request is not.
