		Pete Stark, born in 1931 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, served in the U.S. Air Force for two years during the mid-1950s and earned an engineering degree from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and M.B.A. from the University of California Berkeley.

	Irregular Times Rating and Contact Information for Representative Fortney Pete Stark of CA (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Stark has taken the principled step of formally lending support to H.R., which would put an end to the practice of "extraordinary rendition." This is a practice in which Bush Administration officials send people into the custody of certain nations, knowing full well (some would say intending) that they will be tortured there.
		Stark has taken the affirmative step of cosponsoring H.R., which would provide more information to the public about contacts between lobbyists and politicians, and which would slow down the revolving door of politics in which politicians move into cushy corporate jobs after they retire in exchange for favors.
		Stark has not yet cosponsored H.R., which would acknowledge the injustices of slavery and racial discrimination and establish a commission to study them.

	it comes in pints?: Pete Stark/Dan Dow: My Final word
		Stark rose somewhat (which, barring spinning heads and green vomit, pretty much had to happen).
		Stark also read the list and owned up to it ("I don't see anything on it I could disagree with" - this is amusingly ironic, considering that the very last line on the sheet said "Thirty two years is too long").
		In sum, my previous comments stand, I do not believe Pete Stark is fit for office, but I don't want to be thought unfair on the issue.

	FrontPage magazine.com :: Stark Raving Mad by Joel Mowbray
		Perhaps such “stark” language might be acceptable responding to a blowhard or an ad hominem attack, but then again, no Congressman would ever waste his time calling such a constituent.
		Stark stooped to name-calling, chastising his constituent as an idiot: “Probably somebody put you up to this, and I’m not sure who it was, but I doubt if you could spell half the words in the letter and somebody wrote it for you.
		Stark’s remarks were a collection of digs at both President Bush and Dow, a hearty pat on the back for himself, and a lamenting of the “obscenity” of the response to the Abu Ghraib scandal.

	Sgt Grit's Marine Forum - Rep Pete Stark (D-CA) - Remarks on Record (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Most of the mainstream media coverage of the fracas has focused on the handling of the meeting by House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Bill Thomas, who is accused by Democrats of summoning Capitol Hill police to the scene in order to prevent the minority from meeting in a committee library to discuss procedural objections.
		Then there was the time Stark attacked former conservative California state welfare director Eloise Anderson in 1999 as a baby-killer, complaining at a public forum that she would "kill children if she had her way" simply because she opposed cradle-to-grave government welfare entitlements.
		The lesson couldn't be more stark: Only the self-anointed preachers of tolerance and civility on the Left can have their fruitcake and eat it, too.

		Stark's stance made him a hero for some, but for others, his remarks were merely the latest proof that the East Bay is hopelessly out of step with the rest of America.

		Pete Stark is a pathetic and willfully ignorant bully and should be thrown out of office.
		He took Stark's message to the public, to help expose Stark for what he is. You rarely ever hear a politician's recorded voice uttering such words of contempt - and you NEVER hear them aimed at a VOTER.

	FraudMail Alert
		Representative Pete Stark recently released a letter from the Justice Department Office of Legislative Affairs, in which DOJ revealed that it is actively litigating or investigating more than fifty qui tam matters based on alleged Stark Law violations.
		Although the Stark Law provides for its own hefty sanctions, engrafting alleged Stark Law violations onto an FCA cause of action increases the risk of liability to providers because it opens up an enormous universe of potential prosecutors.
		The DOJ and DHHS letters were released by Representative Stark in response to an amendment introduced by Representative Bill Thomas, H.R. 2651, which — among other things — would delay implementation of the Stark Law until final regulations are promulgated by DHHS.
