We made this @strat_media (and most of the other content at the 2004 GOP convention with the help of Laurel Harris & Michael Santorelli and the folks at Dogmatic, Inc. What a great time and @EdWGillespie was such a great sport.

Discussion with Peter at airport as he’s going to go to the shop before we board.
Would you get some mints?
What kind? he asked.
Just mints.
Tic tacs?
No. Like cinnamon mentos.
Those aren’t mints.
Why are you being so British right now?

Jack Gillespie was born in Donegal, Ireland, but he died a great American. We are proud of his service, and thankful for all those who have served today.

That's my oldest brother Dennis, then a commander in the U.S.C.G. reserves, pinning a Silver Star on our father shortly after his 70th birthday about 27 years ago. He had earned the medal more than 40 years earlier in the Battle of the Hurtgen Forest, but had never received it.

Thankful to all our nation's veterans today for their service in defense of freedom. Thinking of one in particular, though. My father John Patrick "Jack" Gillespie, in the photo below. Over the next few tweets, I want to share the story behind that photo.

Sorry to hear about the passing of Mike Thompson Sr. Mike was a kind, upbeat person with a passion for public policy. It was a privilege to know him, and the Commonwealth is better off for his work.

If you’re looking for a non profit to add to your charitable list portfolio, consider Virginia’s Kids Belong. Vakidsbelong.org has more info!

Some of our favorite stories of generosity come from supporters who decide to donate an unexpected gift (portion of a car accident settlement, tax return, etc). Would you consider helping vulnerable children by supporting VKB when you get an unexpected gift? #fostercare
