Ham Sandwich Posts NPR Audio
20 May 2007 | Prince William County | 6 Comments
The Ham Sandwich campaign has posted an excerpt of NPR’s “Wait, Wait, Don’t Tell Me” show from this weekend where Houston Chronicle deputy editor Kyrie O’Connor was stumped by host Peter Sagal’s question asking “who is running for commonwealth attorney in Virginia?” After Ms. O’Connor incorrectly guessed a Labrador Retriever, Peter was kind […]

Van Hoy’s Self-Sabotage
20 May 2007 | 28th VA Senate | 16 Comments
A funny thing happened at the polls in the 28th District on Saturday. After the polls closed at 3PM, caucus voters kept showing up, and many of them indicated that they intended to vote for Van Hoy and expected the polls to close at 7PM as they do in general and special elections. Why did […]

Google Faisal Gill
19 May 2007 | 51st HOD District | 54 Comments
A new commenter posits this question:
I’m quite disturbed by what I received in the mail today… It was a Julie Lucas for Delegate flyer that seems to be sent out to everyone in the 51st District… It directly attacks Faisal Gill and even tells people to “google” his name… Is this the honest and fair […]

Yesterday a group of concerned citizens gathered in Virginia Beach to hear from some of the leaders from various groups combating the illegal alien problem in Virginia.

Ham Takes Off
19 May 2007 | Prince William County | 15 Comments
Today’s NPR “Wait, Wait, Don’t Tell Me” show mentioned the Ham Sandwich for Prince William County Commonwealth’s Attorney campaign, and gave the URL for the campaign website. The result has been a substantial, although so far manageable, boost in website traffic coming from across North America. What is notable about this traffic is […]
That Didn’t Work Out So Well…
18 May 2007 | Prince William County | Comments Off
Remember that business in Manassas that thought they could restore themselves to profitability by sponsoring “Gay Thursday” along with Equality Prince William? They’ve run into some trouble, and it’s now for sale. The asking price of $1.8 million is probably going to have to be lowered before they attract a buyer, though.
What a […]

An Apology
18 May 2007 | PWCRC, Blogs | 30 Comments
Earlier today I renewed a call for Tom Kopko to resign as chairman of the Prince William County Republican Committee based on unsubstantiated rumors of potential voter fraud and a misreading of the Republican Party Plan as it applied to the reissued call for the 51st District Convention. I was wrong to make those […]

Voter Fraud Rumors
17 May 2007 | Prince William County | 12 Comments
I’m hearing rumors of fairly large numbers of suspect new voter registration applications being filed just before the deadline for participation in the primary contests coming up in June. I hope and expect that State Board of Elections will do a good job ferreting out potentially fraudulent voter applications if and when they show […]
Guilt By Association Wears Thin
17 May 2007 | 51st HOD District | 16 Comments
“Our job as a charity is to accept money and spend it legally,” said Asim Ghafoor, a spokesman for Global Relief. “This is guilt by association.”
That was how Faisal Gill’s current law partner tried to explain away the relationship between the Global Relief Foundation and al-Qaeda in 2002 after the Treasury Department shut the “charity” […]

TRAITORS
17 May 2007 | National Politics, Illegal Aliens | 34 Comments
The U. S. Senate leadership has announced agreement on a bill which would reward current illegal aliens with amnesty, according to WTOP. We tried this in 1986, and all it got us was a more illegal aliens and rampantly fraudulent residency applications. Now that this proposed legislation has been announced, look to the […]
How To Make A Landslide
17 May 2007 | Illegal Aliens, 50th HOD District | 4 Comments
Elected officials who are taking action in the fight against illegal aliens can take heart today in that Republican Lou Barletta, mayor of Hazleton, PA, not only won his party’s nomination by garnering 94% of the vote, but also won the nomination of the Democrats with 63% of the vote in a “write-in” campaign. Pundits […]

If Illegal Aliens Concern You…
16 May 2007 | National Politics | 10 Comments
Last night’s presidential debate really made it clear for me that there are a few candidates who talk about addressing the problem of illegal aliens in our country, and some who actually want to do something about it. With an amnesty proposal looking like it may be scheduled for a vote in the United […]

Following A RedState Trail
16 May 2007 | 51st HOD District | 22 Comments
When RedState picked up on the Faisal Gill story, they threw out a rather interesting breadcrumb trail for enterprising bloggers to follow up on:
Also troubling is that a lawyer connected to Gill is rumored to be the Washington Post leaker of the NSA wiretapping program. Frank Gaffney wrote about Gill, primarily due to Gaffney’s war […]
