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.

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.

More Bad News For Burns

Russell may have not won over the establishment and Chairman Gleason, but the people are now speaking out. The Herald-Standard Editorial Board endorses Army veteran Bill Russell.

For the Republican nomination in the 12th Congressional District, the Herald-Standard Editorial Board endorses Army veteran Bill Russell who is facing off with Tim Burns.

There are no real ideological differences between the two GOP hopefuls and as such Russell gets the nod for having run hard against Murtha last time. Two years ago, with Murtha an imposing foe, Burns was nowhere to be found as Russell was essentially shipped in to combat the longest serving congressman in state history. Subsequently, we feel Burns wouldn't have run this year if Murtha had not passed away in February. A Russell spokesman put it best when he termed Burns "an opportunist." We give Russell credit for fighting the good fight when Murtha was still around. While he failed to unseat Murtha in 2008, he piled up a respectable 42 percent of the vote.

What he doesn't have, however, is money. Burns, who was satisfied to let Russell take on Murtha last time, has been piling up money and support from high-profile Republicans. Russell hasn't changed positions since last race, but still establishment GOP support is drying up quickly, which is ironic, since Russell is a different candidate than last race.

Back in 2008, he had no idea about the area after having been airdropped in to challenge Murtha. Despite the defeat, he has stayed here and been a visible candidate. He deserves credit for that and is a better candidate for it, which is why he is our pick for the Republican nomination.

Way to go Bill. Send the RINO packing.

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.

Happy Mothers Day

Happy Mothers Day to Mrs. William Russell and The Mysterious Mrs. Tim.

The Russell family exemplifies the true meaning of what family values mean. The Russell's endured moving from Army base to Army base. And they survived the Pentagon on 9/11.

Burns claims to embrace family values and morals. As always, what a candidate does means much more than what they say. Burns won't answer the alleged adultery stories that have been swirling in blogosphire. And Burns has had his divorce divorce records sealed. What is there that he doesn't want us to know about him and the mysterious Mrs. Tim. Unseal Burns. Unseal.

Does Burns have some kind of problem with women? He should read the book called "Men Who Hate Women and the Women Who Love Them". Newt Gingrich read it and "found frightening pieces that related to my own life."

I guess traditional marriage for Burns is a sacred union between a man and a woman and another woman. What's the deal, Burns?

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:

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.

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.

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!

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.

Could it be? Is Burns Pro-adultery too?

Could it be? Is Burns Pro-adultery too? If these accusations are true, should Burns drop out of the race and enter the same Mississippi clinic as Tigers Woods? IF the claims in the numerous postings are true, certainly they can be no surprise to Chairman Gleason. Does anyone have more information on the claims in these postings?

Russell Blows Away Burns

Russell raised more money in the first quarter than his party backed opponent. Russell is the people's choice not the choice of the establishment and Gleason's country club members. Read the rest of the story here: http://billrussellforcongress.com/Breaking_News_8O6D.html

Gleason Backs Steele

Stop this incompetent gang that led to the Pay raise backlash. Send these RINOS, Country club Republicans, Pay raisers and Phony's a message. Vote for Bill Russell. Reform in DC and Harrisburg begins in the 12th!!! When will we see Steele campaigning for Burns? Why doesn't this Gleason Burns gang just hand the election over to Critz?

How Much Is Gleason Into The Defense Industry For?

When will the Gleason/Burns campaign disclose how mush of Gleason's Inc's revenues comes from the defense contracting industry? Gleason is the King of Insurance for the defense contractors. Gleason is proud of the business he writes for the defense contractor. 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

Kuchera Industries was raided by the FBI and was investigated by the Federal Elections
Commission.

This is the people of the 12th District seat and Russell is the people's candidate.

Burns Is Out of Touch With the 12th District.

Burns Is Out of Touch With the 12th District.

Bill Russell, his Polish American wife Cashia and the Polish American community in the 12th District mourned the loss of president Lech Kaczynski and several other Polish officials in a tragic plane crash Saturday.

The Polish American community has a deep heritage in the 12th Congressional District. Across the 12th, Polish Americans also grieved the loss of as many as 22,000 military officials at the hands of the Joseph Stalin decades ago.

Burns was quick to release a statement following reports of the Upper Big Branch Mine Explosion in West Virginia. However, Burns has not released a statement on reports of the tragic plane crash in Poland that has saddened the Polish American community in the 12th District.

Burn is out-of-touch with the 12th District.

Another Flip Flopper Endorses Burns

Perennial Presidential candidate Mitt Romney endorses Burns. Romney is an abortion flip flopper. Burns said he would not support a constitutional amendment to ban abortions. Is Burns really pro-life? Does Burns support flip flopping? Does Burns support Romney's MA universal health plan?

Burns! Pinhead or Patriot

Burns endorses a plan to raise middle class taxes, Burns also sold his company to get rich quick even though he knew it would lead to job loss in Western Pennsylvania.
(Pinhead)

Burns endorses the Republican plan to privatize Social Security that would have a devastating impact on seniors in Western Pennsylvania who are already struggling.
(Pinhead)

In 2002, Burns said he supported NDCHealth buying his company TechRx despite the fact that he knew it would lead to layoffs in Western Pennsylvania. [Pittsburgh Business Times, 5/31/02] (Pinhead)

• In a May 2009 interview on Front Lines Blog, Tim Burns stated his support for the regressive Fair Tax, even though it would only benefit those making over $200,000 a year. In Pennsylvania, middle income Pennsylvania families would see their taxes increase by $3,818 per year. The top one percent would see their taxes cut by $187,080 a year. [Front Lines Blog, 5/14/09; Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy; Factcheck.org, 5/31/07; PA2010.com, 3/29/10] (Pinhead)

Burns is a Pinhead not a Patriot. Burns will vote along with Gleason and his country club establishment chums. He is out of touch with the voters of the 12th Congressional District.
