16 April 2008 | Crime, Manassas City | 70 Comments
UPDATE: A photo of the damaged billboard is at the bottom of this post.
I’ve heard this evening that despite good citizens trying their best to keep an eye on this property, the billboard erected by Mexicans Without Borders at the corner of Prince William and Liberty Streets in Manassas has been vandalized. That was […]

The Inquisition Commences
16 April 2008 | Manassas City | 26 Comments
Baldwin Elementary was the first Manassas City school to get the treatment by the U.S. Department of Justice, and DOJ attorneys spent the better part of the school day individually grilling ESOL teachers about their daily activities, pestering central office staff for loads of paperwork, and even questioning the school’s translator about the process for […]

Feder’s OxyContin Money
16 April 2008 | Virginia Politics, US Congress | 15 Comments
Fundraising in a Congressional District is hard. Just ask Judy Feder. She doesn’t seem to have a single high dollar donor from the Shenandoah Valley and only a handful from Loudoun in her first quarter campaign finance report. As happened last cycle, Feder gets most of her money from Pennsylvania, California, Maryland, […]

Insanity Without Borders
16 April 2008 | Zapatistas, Illegal Aliens, Prince William County | 24 Comments
The MJM is promoting an effort by members of Mexicans Without Borders to cross into the United States without inspection by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, which would be a federal felony under 8 U.S.C § 1325 if the person doing so is not a U.S. citizen or someone in possession of a valid visa […]

John Hagar’s Uncomfortably Close Relationship With A Top RPV Vendor
16 April 2008 | RPV | 21 Comments
Creative Direct is one of the top vendors for the Republican Party of Virginia, providing those direct mail services for GOP candidates that fill your mailbox with dozens of campaign mailings every year. None of these contracts are actually bid in order to ensure RPV gets value with the contributions they receive, but are […]

ICE Fixes Their Problem
15 April 2008 | Illegal Aliens, Crime, Prince William County | 18 Comments
After facing some pretty strong criticism, the Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency finally has finally started living up to their agreement with Prince William County, and took responsibility for 60 illegal aliens this week, according to the DC Examiner. One thing about bureaucracies — their opportunity to advocate for more funding often has a […]

Jamiel Shaw Tragedy No Stranger To Prince William
14 April 2008 | Illegal Aliens, Crime, Prince William County | 33 Comments
What happened to Jamiel Shaw in Los Angeles County represents a disturbingly familiar scenario for the Prince William County area. A day after being relased from jail, an illegal alien gang member murdered this inspiring young man Jamiel Shaw. Closer to home, Jose Martinez-Zeron brutally murdered a Manassas City woman one […]

An Illegal Alien’s Story
14 April 2008 | Illegal Aliens, Virginia Politics | 81 Comments
A party of illegal aliens struggling to make it across the border ends up being robbed of everything they own, and young women in the group are nearly raped by these criminals who seem to make their living by preying on this vulnerable population. Worst of all, they still haven’t even made it out […]

A Two-Fer Insult Of NLS
14 April 2008 | Blogs | 5 Comments
Did our erstwhile political opponents and promoters of the local equivalent of “Bush Derangement Syndrome” refer to the publisher of NLS as a hot plate tonight, and accuse him of stealing in order to create a matching set? I guess in their eagerness to express appropriate outrage on the behalf of any illegal […]

Papal Visit Scalping Crackdown May Impact Illegal Aliens
14 April 2008 | Uncategorized | 42 Comments
In an effort to prevent folks from scalping their tickets to see the Pope, the Catholic Archdiocese of Washington will be requiring everyone attending events with the Pope to present valid government ID. I’ll bet Mexicans Without Borders will be absolutely thrilled. Didn’t they just raise a stink recently about this kind […]

Bob Marshall Stuns With Unprecedented Momentum
13 April 2008 | Virginia Politics, US Senate | 7 Comments
Bloggers have been watching a number of Republican mass meetings and county conventions and reporting a definite trend that seems to be bucking the conventional wisdom big time. While party insiders and the media have been predicting that the Senate race will be one between Mark Warner and Jim Gilmore, the developing reality may […]

Tom Davis Gets A Bizarre Endorsement
13 April 2008 | PWCRC, Humor & Satire | 29 Comments
Among the candidate endorsements at this weekend was perhaps the strangest candidate endorsement ever given. Congressman Tom Davis is apparently interested in being a delegate to the Republican National Convention, which comes as little surprise. Congressman Tom Davis wasn’t at the PWCRC Convention, which is also unremarkable, given that the FCRC Convention was […]

Two Students, Two Standards
13 April 2008 | Illegal Aliens, Virginia Politics | 34 Comments
The Washington Post has circled back again to discuss the student of illegal alien parents that’s having a hard time getting in-state tuition rates at UVA, this time explaining in more detail why the legal status of the student’s parents impacts the decision about whether to consider the student legally domiciled in Virginia and thus […]

Principi and Nohe Backsliding?
12 April 2008 | Illegal Aliens, Prince William County | 32 Comments
I’m not sure that the DC Examiner is accurately reporting here, but in today’s edition it would seem that Supervisors Nohe and Principi are talking about re-vamping the Rule of Law Resolution right at the time when the benefits are starting to be realized. I can imagine this is going to generate some interesting emails […]

PWCRC Convention Surprises
12 April 2008 | PWCRC, Prince William County | 29 Comments
A few hundred Prince William County Republicans gathered today at Woodbridge High School for a convention which ended up being a lot more interesting than I think most delegates expected. Since the PWCRC Chairmanship wasn’t contested, few expected this to be anything other than a pretty mundane coronation of Lyle Beefelt, but there are […]

Obama Insults The Electorate
12 April 2008 | National Politics | 28 Comments
The next time Barack Obama feels the urge to explain what’s going on in small town America, he’d be well advised to keep his ignorant piehole shut. Obama apparently understands non-urban America just about as well as he understands bowling.
“You go into these small towns in Pennsylvania and, like a lot of small towns […]

Manassas Public Schools Welcomes The DOJ
11 April 2008 | Manassas City | 37 Comments
Following a Washington Post article published in May of 2007 about the per-pupil spending for ESOL instruction in Manassas City Schools, the U.S. Department of Justice is launching an investigation into whether Manassas City Schools are sufficiently educating students who primarily speak a language other than English. Two other rationales for this federal investigation […]

The Virginia Chapter of the National Abortion Rights League has compiled a scorecard of our local elected officials in Prince William County, and I’m pleased to report that two-thirds of our county’s legislative delegation obtained a perfect 0% score. Congratulations to our fine elected officials who rejected calls from the abortion lobby and stood […]

Randolph College Students Visit Alicia The Prostitute
11 April 2008 | Virginia Politics | 19 Comments
Randolph College has one rather unique way to obtain college credits: touring whorehouses in Nevada.
The brothel tour was a natural fit for a class that tells students “don’t just study America– live it,” said Julio Rodriguez, the director of the college’s American Culture Program.
