Where Will Barbara Comstock Appear Saturday Evening?

The Republican Party announcement says Del. Barbara Comstock will travel to Centreville Saturday afternoon to join conservative Republicans in a reading of the U.S. Constitution.

Del. Comstock, (R-McLean, Great Falls and Loudoun County)  says the invitation is wrong. She's attending the 40th anniversary gala for Wolf Trap awarding a proclamation from the governor, she said.

The announcement/invitation comes the desk of Howie Lind, 10th District Chairman for the Republican Party and a long-time political ally of Comstock's.

The invitation says she will join two other Republican delegates and Fairfax County Republican supervisor Pat Herrity.

 Richard Viguerie, the pioneer in using direct mail to finance conservative Republican causes, is one of the event's sponsors.

Richard Viguerie, is one of four principals of the The American Freedom Agenda’.  The(AFA) mission is twofold:" the enactment of a cluster of statutes that would restore the Constitution’s checks and balances as enshrined by the Founding Fathers; and, making the subject a staple of political campaigns and of foremost concern to Members of Congress and to voters and educators. Especially since 9/11, the executive branch has chronically usurped legislative or judicial power, and repeatedly claims that the President is the law. The constitutional grievances against the White House are chilling, reminiscent of the kingly abuses that provoked the Declaration of Independence," according to the group's website.

Another sponsor Ken Vaughn who descries himself as "founder of Northern Virginia 912, a TEA Party group" who is a Republican candidate from the 11th District.

The other sponsors are the Reddy Family and Neuronworld Corporation which is based in Centreville. We could find no names of a company representative on the company's website.

The announcement/ invitation said Comstock would  appear with:

Del. Jim LeMunyon, (R-67) who represents the Oakton Area.

Del. Bob Marshall (R-!3) who represents part of Prince Williams and Loudoun Counties and has made controversial remarks about gays and disabled children.

The gathering is at the Centreville home of a couple that has fostered more than 20 children since 1997.
