The Budget And The Rule Of Law Resolution
20 March 2008 | Illegal Aliens, Prince William County | 57 Comments
The Prince William Board of County Supervisors still hasn’t agreed to a maximum tax rate for the county, and has one more shot at agreement before the possibility of a stalemate which leaves the county without a budget, and real estate taxes, according to the Gainesville Times. Supervisor John Stirrup and Chairman Corey Stewart […]

Fredericksburg’s Assault On Christianity
19 March 2008 | National Politics, Virginia Politics | 51 Comments
This has to be one of the strangest legal cases in Virginia. The Fredericksburg City Council gets threatened that if it continues to allow Councilman Hashmel Turner to invoke the name of Jesus Christ when he gives the traditional prayer before the City Council meets, the ACLU will sue the city. The Council […]

Illegal Alien Apologist Psychosis
19 March 2008 | Loudoun County | 60 Comments
It’s awfully difficult to regard liberalism as anything other than a mental disorder. The staggering mountain of evidence to support this conclusion just got a little bigger today with an article in “Leesburg Tomorrow” which reads like a case study in abnormal psychology. The article seems to allege that the reason one member […]

Online news seems a little thin today, with no reports from yesterday’s BOCS meeting.

This is a fascinating candidacy in Fairfax County. Kamal Nawash has the potential to make a huge difference as a leader for the FCRC. If you want to have a part in choosing the next FCRC Chairman and perhaps ramping up the excitement level in Fairfax, it’s time to get moving.
Maybe Fairfax has found their […]

Mexicans Without Borders Starts Scrubbing Their Website
18 March 2008 | Zapatistas, Prince William County | 5 Comments
Mexicans Without Borders must be starting to feel some pressure about their open ties with the Zapatista Army of National Liberation (the EZLN), since the recently started removing content from their website. They had seemed rather proud of this content before, but it appears they’re not quite as proud of this now. The first thing […]

Another Local Electric Power Project
18 March 2008 | Local Economy, Prince William County | 20 Comments
The DC Examiner (yet again scooping our local paper) is reporting that LS Power Group has purchased options so it can begin to apply for the necessary permits to build a 873 megawatt natural gas-fueled power plant in Prince William County. The proposal might eliminate the rationale Dominion Power is using to justify the construction […]

I Get To Respond
18 March 2008 | Manassas City | 41 Comments
Five days after publishing an irresponsible hit-piece editorial which smears me as being a “nativist”, the Manassas Urinal-Massager finally allowed my response to be printed, two days after they initially promised it would appear. Here’s what I submitted, which is pretty close to what actually got published:
Police Officer Nearly Killed By Illegal Alien
18 March 2008 | Illegal Aliens, Crime, Prince William County | 50 Comments
The tragedy here is almost too unspeakable for words.
The driver of 2004 Toyota Tacoma that crashed into the motorcycle [driven by Prince William County Police Lt. Phillip E. Harrover Jr.] allegedly tried to flee the scene, but other drivers on the road blocked him in with their vehicles until police arrived, Hernandez said.
Police identified […]

Mexicans Without Borders Defends Alien Sex Offenders
18 March 2008 | Zapatistas, Illegal Aliens, Crime | 15 Comments
This has got to be the strangest development in a series of already strange happenings in Prince William County. Attorney General Bob McDonnell figured out that the policy of the Commonwealth of Virginia has been to release sex offenders back into our community despite them being deportable aliens, either because their crime invalidated their […]

The 2A Superbowl Kick-Off
17 March 2008 | National Politics | 10 Comments
What may well be one of the most significant Supreme Court cases in our lifetime, D.C. v. Heller, will be argued tomorrow, and the blogosphere is buzzing with some excellent commentary about this Second Amendment case. Is the Second Amendment an individual right? And what are the permissible limits for state and […]

From the recent issue of Supervisor John Stirrup’s “Gainesville Express”, here are the number of persons incarcerated in the Prince William County Adult Detention Center and have been transferred to the U.S. Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement between July 10th, 2007 and March 4th, 2008.

Community Building Takes Off
17 March 2008 | Manassas Park, Manassas City, Prince William County | 8 Comments
Manassas City Councilman Andy Harrover’s effort to build and implement a vision for the future in Manassas City is but one of a number of efforts that seem to be springing up lately in the community, as residents demonstrate an increasing dedication to making their communities better rather than simply relying […]

Couldn’t Avoid Building, But Can She Evade Other Vehicles?
17 March 2008 | Loudoun County, Humor & Satire | 1 Comment
At least we have a little while longer before we have to share our congested roads at rush hour with this driver.
A 28-year-old student driver crashed into the Department of Motor Vehicles office in Leesburg Friday while taking her road test to try to get a drivers’ license.
One would assume that if this driver can’t […]

DC Examiner Scoops The MJM, Again
17 March 2008 | Illegal Aliens, Prince William County | 12 Comments
The DC Examiner apparently has the ability to research the stories about Prince William County that our own local paper seemingly can’t manage to figure out, and is reporting that other jurisdictions in Northern Virginia are seeing an increase in mid-year ESOL enrollments, many of which can be directly traced to Prince William County, while […]

Enforcement Works
17 March 2008 | National Politics, Illegal Aliens, Prince William County | 14 Comments
Today’s Washington Times quotes Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff describing “Operation Streamline” with the rather obvious maxim of when you actually enforce the law, you deter unlawful behavior. This not only underpins the success of this small program on our Southern border, but the Rule of Law Resolution in Prince William County as well. […]
Better Late Than Never?
17 March 2008 | Illegal Aliens, Prince William County | 35 Comments
The Manassas Urinal-Massager finally covers the drop in ESOL school enrollments in the area, nearly a week after every other regional news outlet has covered the story. You’d think that with all of the corroborative evidence that suggests that illegal aliens are leaving the area as a result of the Rule of Law Resolution […]

Yes, you can’t be a relatively significant blog in Virginia, and not get a constant stream of hate mail and otherwise outrageously inappropriate comments. Here’s a sample, which I’ve cleaned up a bit, so readers can get an idea of the effort involved in managing a site that doesn’t require user registration before allowing […]
Sorry About The Raw Post, Folks
15 March 2008 | Blogs | 6 Comments
A few of you tonight caught when I inadvertently hit “publish” on a list of the deleted comments that I had been compiling for a post. A site this busy, and which covers a lot of controversial subjects inevitably becomes the target of a lot of folks who behave pretty irresponsibly. It should be an […]
