Souder is stepping down from Congress.

(CNN) – Veteran Indiana Rep. Mark Souder, a Republican, is expected to announce his resignation from Congress Tuesday, according to a GOP aide.

The eight-term congressman scheduled a news conference Tuesday morning, in which he is expected to admit to an affair and step down, according to several Indiana media outlets.

"I believe it is the best decision for my family, the people of northeast Indiana and our country,” Souder will say, according to Indiana’s News Center.

Souder won a hard-fought primary two weeks ago but he failed to receive more than 50 percent of the vote. The conservative Republican was first elected to Congress in 1994 and represents the northeast region of Indiana.

Kevin Smith, a spokesman for House Minority Leader John Boehner, said the GOP leader "has been perfectly clear that he will hold our Members to the highest ethical standards.”

Souder's announcement comes two months after Rep. Eric Massa, D-New York, stepped down after admitting to groping male staffers.

Tim Burns, don't do this to the voters of the 12th District. We don't want any scandals in the in the 12th District.

Throw in the towel Burns.

Does anybody know what country club Burns is giving his concession speech at? Please forward us the information.

Russell is the real Republican candidate.

Bill Russell will win tomorrow's Republican Party primary. Because Russell is the independent voice of the conservatives. Chairman Gleason, the "King of the Defense Contractor insurance brokers," does'nt really want Burns to win. Gleason wants Critz to win.

Gleason brought up the Beltway Boys by bus and it has turned off the Republican voters. Burns has only given once to Santorium. He has never given to any other Republican Party candidate. Now Burns wants the Republican vote. He hasn't earned it. Burns is a RINO republican

Burns claims that he is not a politician and doesn't want this job. He once considered running against Arlen Spector. Burns has said that he will only work with Democrats when they come to him. This election is all about Tim Burns. He does not care about the voters in the 12th District.

Russell served his country for 28 years in the Army. He served in five combat zones and at the Pentagon on 9-11. Burns was only in combat with his ex-wife. There have been rumors about Burns' extra marital affairs swirling on the blogosphire. They have gone unanswered by Burns. We don't need another Mark Sanford scandal in the 12th District.

Russell doesn't support same sex marriage. He supports the marriage between a man and a women. Burns is supported by the GayPatriot. Burns has blasted every endorsement for him. Burns didn't want the 12th District to know about the GayPatriot endorsement. What else hasn't Burns told the voters of the 12th District.

Burns is out of touch with the 12th District. Burns is not one of us. He is part of the establishment of Washington, DC. Not Washington, PA, Uniontown, PA or Johnstown, PA.

Burns received the endorsement of the Gay Patriot.

From our of nowhere, our research department found that on April 20, 2010, the Gay Patriot endorsed Tim Burns.

On their website "About Us" page they write, "The GayPatriot blog is an independent, political and opinion-based Weblog created by Bruce Carroll that is a forum focusing on gay conservative issues, themes, culture and ideas." GayPatriot is one of the independent blogs affiliated with the Pajamas Media enterprise.

Burns has blasted every endorsement he has received. The GayPatriot endorsement was one that Burns didn't want us to know about.

Pro Life? Pro Gun? Pro-Adultery? And now Burns, are you Pro Gay Marriage?

Bill Russell is the real conservative candidate.

Tim Burns Exposed?

For weeks, this blog has been running the stories about Tim Burns and his alleged extramarital affairs that have been spiraling in the blogosphire. We have given him the opportunity to come forward to answer these allegations. Burns has not responded.

Rumors are again spiraling in the blogosphire that some of his in-laws from the Koprivaia family will soon be telling the truth about Burns' extramarital affairs and the other women in his life.

If anyone other than the family knows about Burns' alleged extramarital affairs, please send an email to info@billrussellforcongress.com

Guess we don't need for you to unseal your divorce Burns because the family is going to tell us the truth now.

Observer-Reporter Endorses Russell

“In the Republican primary, Burns is competing with William Russell, a retired lieutenant colonel in the U.S. Army who challenged Murtha in the 2008 general election. Some of Russell’s policy prescriptions, like giving seniors $1,000 monthly vouchers in lieu of Medicare so they can buy insurance on the open market, give us pause. But Russell has considered the issues with a depth and thoughtfulness that Burns has not demonstrated. He also has a background in defense and foreign policy, something that Burns lacks. We believe Russell would be the better choice for Republicans.”

Do they know something about Burns that we don't?

Tim Burns And His Eleven Lives

Tim Burns reinvents himself each time he visits one of the nine counties of the 12th District.

During his marriage to the Mysterious Mrs. Tim, Burns had two lives. One with the Mysterious Mrs. Tim and one with the other woman in his life.

Many questions have gone unanswered about the other woman in his life. The Burns' divorce records are sealed. Unseal Burns. Unseal.

The voters of the 12th District just don't need another Mark Sanford scandal in their district.

Burns's Hypocrisy Is Contagious

Burns is hanging with U.S Rep. Aaron Schock (R-Ill) tomorrow at the Somerset County Republican Headquarters.

Burns has been running on a campaign of family values. Burns has been the subject of alleged extramarital affairs that has been swirling about the blogosphire. These allegations have gone unanswered by Burns. Furthermore, Burns has had his divorced sealed. The 12th District doesn't need another Mark Sanford.

Rep. Aaron Schock (R-Ill.) was accused of hypocrisy for railing against a spending bill in public while touting its benefits in his home district. Read story:

The Road to the White House Goes Through the 12th.

A few of the potential 2012 GOP Presidential candidates have stopped in the 12th District. They care about what happens in Washington, DC not Washington, PA.

The latest is former NY Governor Pataki. Unlike RINO Burns, Governor Pataki has been a GOP activist, a contributor to the party and has had a career in public service. And Gov. Pataki has good family values. Whereas, the allegations of Burns' extramarital affairs continue to go unanswered. Burns has had his divorce sealed. Unseal Burns. Unseal. Burns, what are you hiding?

Gov. Pataki is Pro-Choice. So there goes Burns again. Flip flopping.

And unlike Burns, Gov. Pataki has worked with others whom did not share his political views.

Missing in action are NRCC Chairman Pete Sessions, Republican Leader John Boehner, and Minority Whip Eric Cantor. Do they know something that we don't?

Burns. Still Running A Campaign of Hypocracy

Bill Russell is an independent voice like Senator Scott Brown. Unlike his opponent he doesn't take orders from the Chairman Rob Gleason and the establishment. Bill Russell is his own man. Bill Russell is a good family values man. His opponent has not answered allegations about his extramarital affairs and has not unsealed his divorce. What doesn't Burns want you to know? Unseal Burns! Unseal.

Burns! You Are No Senator Scott Brown.

Senator Scott Brown believes in a culture of family. Allegations of Burns' extramarital affairs have been swirling about the blogosphire and he has had his divorce file sealed. We don't want a Mark Sanford in the 12th District. Unseal Burns! Unseal!

Senator Brown has served our country as a member of the Massachusetts National Guard. Burns has never served our country.

Senator Brown has had a career in public service and has been a contributor to the Republican Party. Burns has not had any public service experience and has been a RINO in the Republican Party.

Senator Brown has been an independent voice. Burns is the voice of Chairman Rob Gleason and the establishment.

Burns! Stop your campaign of hypocrisy.

Gotcha Burns. Shame On You. We Just Can't Trust You.

Last weeks Burns said that hs website was attcked. Then Burns contradicted himself. Read story from The Hill.com below.


House candidate Tim Burns says website 'attacked'
By Sean J. Miller - 04/30/10 12:37 PM ET

Pennsylvania House candidate Tim Burns (R) tried to capitalize on the technical difficulties his website experienced last week.

He recently sent out a fundraising email to supporters asking them for contributions to "help in this fight to stop Nancy Pelosi and fight back against her Washington smear machine." Burns then cited his successful fundraising push last week.

He noted his campaign exceeded its original goal of raising $50,000 "despite my website being hacked and shut down for almost an entire day.

“While it is still unknown why and how my site was attacked on Friday, I do know that people from this district and around the country were frustrated that they could not respond and help in this effort," Burns wrote.

That contradicted what his campaign told the Ballot Box the day the website went down.

It didn't crash because of foul play, Kent Gates, a spokesman for the Burns campaign said last week. "It is a problem with the hosting company and we tried to get it resolved all day."

The Ballot Box followed up with Gates about the fundraising pitch. He said "it is true that the site was hacked at some level."

Gates, in an email: "What I was making clear to you was that we had no way of knowing if it was done intentionally for political reasons, internally with Network Solutions or what the exact reason [was]."

He said the campaign suspected that a "disgruntled employee" -- not a Democratic operative -- was responsible.

"We have since moved the site to its own hosting site and beefed up security on it," Gates said.

Burns is running in the special House election for the late Rep. John Murtha's (D-Pa.) seat. He faces Democrat Mark Critz in the May 18 vote.

Bill Russell. Standing Alone Again.

Russell calls on the Secretary of the Navy to denounce the naming of the ship USS Murtha.

What is Burns' position on this?

The ads are trying to portray Burns as a widower with his two sons. We have learned that Burns' ex-wife has custody of the two children. Burns needs to end the hypocrisy.

Bill Russell is a good family man. He doesn't need to do any play acting about his family life.

Bill Russell Needs No Chauffeur

Bill Russell has stood up to his own party leadership. He is his own man and would vote what would be in the interest of the voters of the 12th District not Chairman Gleason’s. Chairman Gleason has been the chauffeur for Tim Burns. Bill Russell can drive his own car.

Burns "hangs with" state Chairman Rob Gleason.

Chairman Rob Gleason who appointed Burns is linked to Kuchera Industries. Kuchera Industries was raided by the FBI and was investigated by the Federal Elections Commission. And this from Mr. Gleason’s brochure for his companies, Gleason Insurance, Gleason Financial, and Gleason Technology:

“We have been able to build our business, knowing Gleason is looking out for all of our insurance needs.”

Ronald Kuchera, Chief Financial Officer
Kuchera Industries

Bill Russell doesn't "hang with" the establishment or country clubbers. Bill Russell is his own man.

Worth Repeating

Sometimes as in the case of Burns, the same message is worth repeating when it benefits the voters of the 12th District. Last week readers began knowing of Burns' alleged extra-narital affairs swirling about the blogosphire. Subsequently we learned that Burns’ divorce was sealed by the court. We have also learned from the court that this procedure is extremely unorthodox. Something was amiss here. We have challenged Burns to be forthcoming about these allegations. To date, the answers that Burns owes the voters of the 12th District have not come. Mr. Burns where are your answers to these allegations. All we have seen is rhetoric and hyperbole. The 12th District doesn’t need another Mark Sanford. Unseal Burns! Unseal!

Burns' Corruption Ads

Less than 30 days until Election Day and Russell's opponent is running an ad about corruption.

Bill Russell has already been the leader in exposing corruption in the 12th District.
Our readers have been following what this blog has written about Burns' establishment friends like Chairman Gleason.

Gleason who appointed Burns is linked to Kuchera Industries. Kuchera Industries was raided by the FBI and was investigated by the Federal Elections Commission. And this from Mr. Gleason’s brochure for his companies, Gleason Insurance, Gleason Financial, and Gleason Technology:

“We have been able to build our business, knowing Gleason is looking out for all of our insurance needs.”

Ronald Kuchera, Chief Financial Officer
Kuchera Industries

And our reader have been following the allegations swirling about the blogosphire that Burns had extramarital affairs and has requested that the court seal his divorce. Unseal Burns! Unseal!.

People who live in glass houses should not throw stones.

Do We Have A Tiger Burns By It's Tail.

Information has it that Burns had his divorce records sealed. Conservative voters of the 12th district requests that all sealed documents in Burns' divorce be made public or explained why any alleged injury outweighs the right of the voters of the 12th District to know what is contained in the divorce case. Burns should unseal the divorce documents filed. We don't need another Mark Sanford representing the 12th. We don't need voters remorse.

Russell's Needs Run His Own Poll.

The russell brigade is not getting any direction from their candidate Bill Russell. All these polls are confusing. They are not naming our candidate Bill Russell. We need to hear from Bill Russell. Bill Russell needs to do his own poll. Show us where you are in the polls Bill.
