MILLIONS FOR DEFENSE, BUT NOT ONE CENT FOR TRIBUTE
21 June 2006 | Blogs | 23 Comments
This was the response in 1800 to the Barbary Pirates who held Americans for ransom whom they captured. Today, Steve Chapman is trying to hold hostage our freedom to hold candidates accountable for what they say in their political campaigns by filing a malicious lawsuit against me. Even though this lawsuit has no […]

RISHELL GETS AN ENDORSEMENT
20 June 2006 | Manassas City, Prince William County, 50th HOD District | 3 Comments
The Virginia Partisans Gay and Lesbian Democratic Club as endorsed the Democratic nominee for the 50th District Jeanette Rishell for delegate, apparently before a Republican nominee was chosen. Either this is just a result of her being a Democratic candidate, or she has made it clear that the agenda they favor is something she clearly […]

Over the next couple of months the make up the Manassas City Council will change greatly. On July 5th Marc Aveni and Andrew Harrover will be sworn in as new Council members. J.

CITIZENS HELPING CITIZENS
19 June 2006 | Uncategorized | 4 Comments
This topic came up in another thread, and while it’s a little bit of a departure from the normal political coverage on this blog, I think it’s worth mentioning.
The Prince William County government has an early intervention program to assist families with disabled children. My youngest daughter became enrolled in this program soon after we […]

RISHELL IS NO MODERATE
19 June 2006 | 50th HOD District | 16 Comments
A poster under the name of “ZB” asks “what are the ‘out of the mainstream’ views Jeanette Rishell holds?” This seems like a discussion worthy of far more than the buried comments on Not Larry Sabato.
The voters I have spoken with are very concerned with taxation, illegal immigration and protecting the unborn. Every […]
PWCRC IN TROUBLE? NOT!
19 June 2006 | Prince William County | Comments Off
Prince William County remains a Republican stronghold, with over 80% of all elected officials in the county being Republicans. Despite this obvious record of success, some have commented that the PWCRC is in trouble. I believe that analysis is deeply flawed.
Prince William County committee members made a big difference in the Jackson Miller […]
CONNAUGHTON MOVING ON?
18 June 2006 | Prince William County | 9 Comments
I heard today that Sean Connaughton may be getting appointed to a position on the U.S. Department of Transportation and would be giving up his seat. I haven’t confirmed this, but the information seems credible.
If true, this is going to set a lot of BOCS members in motion to see who might succeed him as […]
WEIMER RAN STRONG AND SMART
17 June 2006 | Manassas City, 50th HOD District | 16 Comments
Carroll Weimer ran a stunningly effective campaign, especially for someone who was aiming for the House of Delegates for his first campaign. Although he barely failed in his effort to win the nomination for the 50th HOD, he clearly proved that he is able to run well and has the support needed to mount another […]

HOD IRRESPONSIBILITY?
16 June 2006 | Virginia House | 2 Comments
Jaded JD writes that the House of Delegates decided to load up the budget with earmarks for initiatives such as the Cold War Museum, the American Shakespeare Center, and the Mineral Historical Foundation. Some of these earmarks are being proposed by Republican members of the House of Delegtes, which I find particularly disturbing. If holding […]
50th HOD RACE TRIVIA
15 June 2006 | Manassas City, 50th HOD District | 7 Comments
Here’s one for political trivia buffs out there!
Jackson Miller and Carroll Weimer have crossed paths in their professional careers a few times in the past. Can anyone name the notable capital murder case where Jackson Miller was a first responder to a crime where Carroll Weimer defended the accused?
Answer: J Sarge gets it right! On […]
WHO WILL FIGHT FOR OUR FAMILIES?
14 June 2006 | 50th HOD District | 5 Comments
This Saturday is the 50th District Republican convention to select the nominee who will battle against Jeanette Rishell, who I am told even sports a nice little pro-gay marriage bumper sticker on her car. Your choice is between county police officer and City Councilman Jackson Miller and trial lawyer Carroll Weimer.
Carroll Weimer’s resume may best […]

CONNAUGHTON ENDORSES MILLER
14 June 2006 | Prince William County, 50th HOD District | Comments Off
I have not confirmed this, but it appears that Sean Connaughton, Chairman of the County Board of Supervisors, has endorsed Jackson Miller joining his colleagues Marty Nohe and John Stirrup.
This is one of those somewhat rare occurrences where these elected officials in Prince William County have all agreed on something. Jackson’s ability to unite what […]

THE DEM’S GIFT TO JACKSON MILLER
13 June 2006 | 50th HOD District | 12 Comments
The announcement that Jeanette Rishell is going to be the Democratic nominee for the 50th District House of Delegates deals a severe blow to the Carroll Weimer campaign for the Republican nomination. It appears that Carroll has been positioning himself as a more moderate alternative to Jackson Miller, and had the Democrats actually nominated […]

RISHELL NOMINATED BY DEFAULT
13 June 2006 | 50th HOD District | 11 Comments
Because no one else bothered to file for the Democratic nomination, Jeanette Rishell is now the official Democratic nominee for the 50th District House of Delegates. She doesn’t stand a chance.
Virginia Virtucon noticed the article first, as the Manassas Journal-Messenger made it’s typical move of covering another Democratic party non-event while ignoring the majority party […]

50th HOD CONVENTION: DELEGATE CONTROVERSY
11 June 2006 | 50th HOD District | 8 Comments
The delegate forms from Manassas in the 50th District Republican Convention are being processed, and it’s clear that a large number of Democrats and Independents have filed delegate applications. Among the more eggregious examples of non-Republicans attempting to participate is Steven Randolph, Manassas Independent City Council member who ran against Republicans in the May elections.
I’ll […]

ULTRA-CONSERVATIVE, OR MODERATE?
11 June 2006 | 50th HOD District | 3 Comments
I was talking to one of my fellow parishoners this morning, and he told me about a call he had gotten from the Weimer campaign. He didn’t tell me who he spoke with, but that whomever that was told him that Jackson Miller was “ultra-conservative” and that Weimer was a more moderate, and thus electable, […]

WHERE ARE THEY NOW? AMBERANNE
10 June 2006 | Humor & Satire, Manassas City | 1 Comment
AmberAnne, the die-hard Chapman supporter who never failed to harm her preferred candidate’s cause, has apparently set up her own blog.
Well, she’s moved on. I just have to wonder if her new beau is Jad Sansour.

TC WRECKS WEBB CAMPAIGN
9 June 2006 | Humor & Satire, US Senate | 1 Comment
The James “Worst Campaign Ever” Webb campaign imploded tonight as Vince Harris donned a Webb sticker and endorsed the candidate for the Democratic nomination. Harris’ endorsement ended with “If I was an objective Democrat..I’d vote for Webb”. Liberal activists promtly ran for the doors and signed up as Harris Miller volunteers as if they were […]
