Elders of Scott County, unite?

I might have guessed that the people were mainly Republicans over in Scott County, home place of Attorney General Kilgore, Delegate Kilgore, and soon-to-be Judge Kilgore, but this item from the Roanoke paper (via Opinion Journal's Best of the Web) suggests a diversity of views, calling for the formation of "a platoon of elders to help protect our homeland" from President Bush, headquartered in Dungannon, which is a ways off the four-lane there in Scott County. I know a few "seniors" over in Gate City, I'll have to start asking them whether they have joined the platoon.
