The situation of family courts endangering children and punishing women must be exposed in the media. State and national policymakers in all three branches of government and other allies must be advised of the problem of family courts placing children in the unsupervised custody of abusive parents, and be told that this is happening with alarming frequency. Unlawfully abused by Virginia judicial system?? Expose & make known corruptions. Share your story to be published. Va.justlaw@live.com

Why Does Dave Albo hate Women???????
When another legislator's wife complained that she was being discriminated against due to her gender. What was Delegate Albo's response?
"There's no such thing as workplace harassment." "Complaint Targets State Senator," Richmond Times-Dispatch, 7/19/06.
Over the years, Delegate Dave Albo has not been hospitable to women's issues. For example, last year, when a female judicial applicant complained when now former Sen. Nick Rerras cross-examined her about her views on (a) abortion, (b) requiring arrests for domestic violence, and (c) her views on "feminazi's," Del. Dave Albo's response:
"He didn't do anything illegal," Albo said. "He asked questions about things that are important to him." . . . "Review Sought on Judicial Selection Process," The Virginia-Pilot, Feb. 15, 2007.So long as legislators don't don't grope judicial candidates, what's the big deal right? AMG, Albo to Rerras: Just Don't Grope the Applicant (Apr. 15, 2007).When another legislator's wife complained that she was being discriminated against due to her gender. What was Delegate Albo's response? "There's no such thing as workplace harassment." "Complaint Targets State Senator," Richmond Times-Dispatch, 7/19/06. Such sympathy.When Fairfax County requested $22M for subsidized childcare what did he do? He killed it. See AMG, Is Dave Albo Offering to Babysit 1900 Children? (Aug. 7, 2006).When PTA moms wanted to sell cookies at polling places what he do? He tried to ban them. AMG, Dave Albo v. the PTA (Apr. 25, 2006).In 2001, what did Del. Dave Albo say were his constituents top three issues?
Del. David B. Albo, R-Fairfax, said phone bills, particularly various taxes tacked onto bills, trail only abortion and gun control as a top issue for his constituents.' Richmond Times-Dispatch 9.7.2000
You get the idea? So, after getting a 25% rating in 2007, what is Del. Dave Albo's 2008 rating from Virginia NARAL:
0%Shocker.....

We have previously covered Delegate Dave Albo's questionable record on issues important to women:
On Electing Women's JudgesAMG, Why Does Albo Hate Women? (Apr. 17, 2008)AMG: Albo to Rerras, Just Don't Grope the Applicant (Feb. 15, 2007)On Childcare
AMG: Is Dave Albo Offering to Babysit 1,900 Children (Aug. 7, 2006)
On Employment DiscriminationAMG: Albo on Employment Law, "No Such Thing As Workplace Harassment" (July 21, 2006)Delegate Dave Albo also likes to argue that he is "moderate" or "bipartisan" and that he has a "moderate" record on social issues like abortion. We also have this lovely gem from 2001:
Del. David B. Albo, R-Fairfax, said phone bills, particularly various taxes tacked onto bills, trail only abortion and gun control as a top issue for his constituents.' Richmond Times-Dispatch 9.7.2000It appears that his business partner, Majority Leader Morgan Griffith has finally gotten to him (See AMG, Announcing Albo & Griffith). First, Delegate Dave Albo had the following record:
0% pro-choice record in 2008 0% record in 20060% record in 2004Have things improved? Well.... this session, Delegate Dave Albo has voted on HB 2634 which requires doctors to anesthetize a fetus before an abortion (click here for vote).Next, Delegate Dave Albo he voted on HB 2579 to require doctors to offer women a ultrasound before they may proceed with an abortion. (click here for vote).One more thing.... Women have been regularly getting into law schools now since 1965. Delegate Dave Albo has been on the Court's of Justice Committee for 14 years. So, how many women judges are there in Virginia sitting on Circuit Courts?
13 out of 157 (8.2%)Source: American Judicature SocietyHow many new women Circuit Court Judges have been appointed since Delegate Dave Albo was elected Chairman of the Courts of Justice Committee in 2006?
3 Source: (2008 - HR 5, 2007 - HR52, HR65, 2006 - HR7, HR34)(At least one of these replaced an existing woman judge, so that's a net gain of 2)So where does Delegate Dave Albo stand on women and women's issues? You decide.

You would think he is a political corpse, but nobody even ran against him in November and he ran unopposed even at the height of his unpopularity. It was so strange, given that many people would have voted anyone with a pulse. He would surely have been defeated.What did he do to prevent any challengers? Was there some kind of nefarious goings on? More info would be great. I loathe this person. Thanks.
