Usually there isn’t a whole lot coming from the Tenth Congressional District Committee, but the last meeting actually had some significant agenda items.

Getting Complacent
23 April 2007 | Manassas City | 6 Comments
In the wake of the Virginia Tech massacre there’s been a number of pranks pulled in local public schools, which has kept the police department pretty busy. While they’ve done a good job of rounding up the pranksters, which may help to deter such incidents in the future, it looks like there’s a little […]

23 April 2007 | 51st HOD District, PWCRC | 135 Comments
I’m hearing a fair amount of concern over PWCRC Chairman Tom Kopko’s work for 51st District candidate Faisal Gill, which showed up on Gill’s latest campaign finance disclosure.

Kopko is on Faisal Gill’s Payroll
22 April 2007 | 51st HOD District, PWCRC | 55 Comments
Faisal Gill’s financial disclosure report has a few interesting items in it, and one really troubling expenditure. Back in January, Faisal paid Tom Kopko $1,000 for “consulting” services. That’s right; the Chairman of the Republican Party in PWC is accepting money from candidates at a convention that he will be overseeing.
Could […]

Reaping What We’ve Sown
21 April 2007 | Crime | 11 Comments
Gun control advocates are coming out once again to tell us that we need yet another law passed in order to protect us from criminals such as the one who committed the recent outrage at Virginia Tech. As Jerry Fuhrman pointed out, law number 10,001 is unlikely to save us from someone who will […]

Messier’s Mess Of A Campaign Account
20 April 2007 | Prince William County | 14 Comments
Prince William County Sheriff candidate Mike Messier has submitted one of the more amusing campaign finance reports I’ve seen recently. Filing his paperwork two days after the deadline had expired, he’s reporting a whopping $2,477 in his campaign account. It’s bad enough that someone who is claiming to be a good candidate to lead […]

We’re Number One!
19 April 2007 | Local Economy | 6 Comments
Prince William, including Manassas and Manassas Park, is number one in mortgage foreclosures in Northern Virginia. That’s not even in percentage terms, that’s in gross numbers. While Fairfax County has more than twice the number of housing units as Prince William, it has 28% fewer residential units in active foreclosure as of April […]
PWCDC Tailspin Continues
18 April 2007 | Prince William County | 3 Comments
Their website is broken. Many of their candidates haven’t filed timely campaign finance disclosures. Many incumbent Republicans appear to be running unopposed, or against candidates with little or no credibility. After the departure of Vic Bras and a significant portion of the PWCDC leadership, county Democrats still can’t pull it together, and time has pretty […]

Riley Stays
18 April 2007 | Crime, Blogs | 24 Comments
NLS has a post up this morning complaining that Riley’s post concerning the murderer at Virginia Tech was out of line, and says he intends to discuss those blogs that still link to Virginia Virtucon.
