  FVA Endorses Bill Bolling for Lt Governor  


The Family Values Alliance endorses Bill Bolling for Lt Governor for the following reasons:

1.  His homepage [ http://www.billbolling.com/index.php?page=values ]publicly professes sound family values: 2.  Bill Bollings web site cites Leslie Byrne’s dismal record on the following: 3.  Leslie Byrnes home page on the other hand makes no mention to any family values.

4.  NARAL Pro-choice Virginia, a leading Virginia pro-abort organization, endorses his Democratic opponent, Leslie Byrne [http://www.naralva.org/s04politicalupdates/press/200508171.shtml]

5.  Virginia Society for Human Life, a Virginia pro-life PAC, endorses Bill Bolling. [http://www.vshl.org/elections/2005/2005_VSHLPAC_Endorsed_Candidates.pdf] & [http://www.vshl.org/elections/2005/2005_KILGORE_KAINE_comparison.pdf] for following reasons: Bill Bolling has been a strong pro-life leader. During his 10 years in the Virginia Senate, he compiled a 100 % pro-life voting record. He opposes partial-birth abortion and he voted for parental notification. He co-sponsored the Fetal Pain Awareness Bill and the Abortion Clinic Licensing and Regulation Bill. Leslie Byrne has compiled a 0% pro-life voting record. She voted against a ban on partial-birth abortion and against parental notification. During her time in Congress, she voted to allow federal tax funding of abortion. She supports abortion on demand -- even as a method of birth control.

6.  Virginia Partisans, an advocacy group for legitimizing sodomy, supports Leslie Byrne [http://www.vapartisans.org/pr061505.html]: "Republican State Senator Bill Bolling, the Lt. Gubernatorial Nominee, has been a fierce opponent of equality throughout his tenure in the State Senate, earning a ZERO score from Equality Virginia. He was one of only 14 Senators to oppose allowing companies the right to VOLUNTARILY offer health benefits to domestic partners if they so chose and is one of only 17 Senators who has not even established a written nondiscrimination policy for his own office. Bolling brags in the "Virginia Values" section of his campaign web site that he "is serving as a Senate co-patron of legislation to advance" the unnecessary constitutional amendment which would write discrimination into Virginia's constitution. He boasts of a 100% score from the extremist "Family Foundation of Virginia."

7.  From Equality Virginia, a leading Virginia advocacy group for legitimizing sodomy, Voter Guide [http://www.equalityvirginia.org/atf/cf/%7BF56F0407-AD15-456F-9A9E-EB9BC57B69AC%7D/EV%20October%202005%20Voting%20Guide%20Insert.pdf] "Bill Bolling believes that marriage is between a man and a woman. Voted in favor of the proposed state consitutional amendment. Co-patroned Senate version of marriage amendment. Voted in favor of resolution urging Congress to pass Federal Marriage Amendment banning same-sex marriage and civil unions. Leslie Byrne opposes proposed state and federal constitutional amendments to deny marriage as between a man and a woman."

8.  The liberal Washington Post Oct 5 Article [ http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/10/04/AR2005100400934.html ] stated that " The candidates, who have strong appeal to core loyalists in their parties, made no mention of the social issues that divide and define them. Byrne's support for abortion rights, gay rights and labor is well known, whereas Bolling's backers see him as a true conservative who opposes abortion."

9.  The Roanoke Times in March 22, 2005 article [http://www.roanoke.com/columnists/lynch/wb/xp-20513] States: "He is a consistent voice in support of saving the lives of pre-born children. In fact, he has scored a 100 percent rating from the conservative Family Foundation of Virginia. He strongly supports Second Amendment rights and Virginia’s Right to Work law."
