Something To (Not) Look Forward To
20 May 2008 | National Politics | 14 Comments
This is what political correctness gets you, from someone who obviously has plenty of experience living in a cesspool of the same.

Amnesty Alert!

Looks like Congress is at it once again, trying to impose an amnesty for illegal aliens that the voters time and again have said they do not want.

The Hubris Of Jim Gilmore
18 May 2008 | Virginia Politics, US Senate | 18 Comments
The timing of the Republican conventions for the 8th, 10th and 11th Congressional Districts this weekend was set up to allow the statewide candidates for office that would like to speak at these conventions to move from one to the other without rushing too much, ensuring that as many conventional delegates in Northern Virginia get […]

So How Has Amnesty Worked Out?
18 May 2008 | National Politics, Illegal Aliens | 31 Comments
The illegal alien lobby is working overtime to tell us that if we only grant amnesty to illegal aliens, it will allow us to get control over the illegal alien problem in the United States, and everything will get better. Perhaps it’s time to take a look at how that concept has been working out […]

The Lies My Teacher Told Me At GMU
18 May 2008 | Prince William County | 34 Comments
George Mason University has a graduate program for teachers called “Initiatives In Educational Transformation.” Billed as a professional development opportunity for teachers in Northern Virginia, it is little more than a taxpayer-supported opportunity to for radicals to force-feed propaganda down the throats of those who teach our children. Why our public schools accept professional development […]

10th District Results
17 May 2008 | RPV, Loudoun County, Manassas Park, Manassas City, Prince William County | 17 Comments
Congratulations to Jo-Ann Chase, Kay Gunter and Howie Lind for being elected to the Republican State Central Committee for the 10th District! This represents a pretty substantial victory for conservatives over the slate endorsed by 10th District Chairman Jim Rich, who was re-elected without opposition. There was some minor confusion as the initial results indicated […]
Teacher Sex Scandal Coverup At Dean Elementary
16 May 2008 | Crime, Manassas City | 87 Comments
EXCLUSIVE BREAKING NEWS…
On May 9th, a male first-year ESOL teacher at Dean Elementary School in Manassas was lead away by police in handcuffs. The rumor, which is all we have at this point given a concerted effort by school officials to cover this up, is that the teacher was arrested for sexual misconduct involving one […]

John Hager’s Endorsements From Democrats
16 May 2008 | RPV | 3 Comments
John Hager has been busily trying to tally up endorsements for his re-election as Chairman of the Republican Party of Virginia. In the midst of this effort, he managed to get endorsements not only from Mark Warner, but Dickie Cranwell. So far there hasn’t been a solid explanation of why an endorsement from a Democrat […]

Just A Coincidence, I’m Sure
16 May 2008 | Blogs, Prince William County | 10 Comments
Unbiased documentary filmmakers? Of course. That they also manage a campaign website for Barack Obama shouldn’t make anyone wonder whether these are simply paid political operatives for the Democratic Party. Not at all.
The background graphic showing both Eric Byler and Annabel Park are a nice touch. Looks kinda familiar…

Some Are More Equal Than Others In Manassas City
16 May 2008 | Manassas City | 30 Comments
I really have to wonder whether non-hispanic residents of the City of Manassas are entitled to this level of deference when they break the law. Here is the long and sordid history of building and zoning violations at 9500 Liberty Street, expired deadlines, and a complete failure by the city to enforce their zoning and […]

New Amnesty Plan In Congress!
16 May 2008 | Illegal Aliens, US Senate | 62 Comments
The Senate is considering an amnesty for illegal alien agricultural workers proposed by Senator Diane Feinstein (D-CA) that will grant 1.2 million illegal aliens and all their family members unconditional legal status. It’s time, once again, to make our voices heard and burn up the Senate switchboard. Amnesty for illegal aliens only encourages additional unlawful […]

What Part Of Illegal Doesn’t McCaffrey Understand?
16 May 2008 | Virginia Politics | 5 Comments
Guest post by Robert Molleur
As a former resident of the Peoples Republic of Arlington, I got to know Arlington Sun Gazette Editor Scott McCaffrey pretty well. I’d often sit with him at Arlington County Junta (Board) Meetings and cringe in unison at some of the ridiculous liberal policies, like their day laborer center in […]

Hager and Frederick Debate!
16 May 2008 | RPV | 6 Comments
The Prince William County Young Republicans have managed to set up what one else seems to have been able to make happen — a debate between candidates for RPV Chairman Jeff Frederick and John Hager. I don’t know how they managed to pull this off, but we get to reap the benefit regardless. The debate […]

King Saslaw Speaks
15 May 2008 | Virginia Politics | 5 Comments
The incredible hubris of Dick Saslaw, as reported in the Shad Plank today, seems to know no bounds. If the electorate doesn’t want a hike in the gas tax, that matters not to Dick Saslaw, who will work to impose one regardless of widespread public opposition. You’d think Springfield voters elected him to be king […]
Governors Generate Gridlock
15 May 2008 | Virginia Politics | 8 Comments
Elected officials want to reduce gridlock, and revamp the Wilson Bridge over the Potomac River. Good. Elected officials want to have a photo opportunity and news coverage of their largesse, so they set up a pavilion on the bridge for a ceremony no one cares about, prompting a traffic nightmare. Bad. Their solution to this? […]

Congress Looks To Preempt Everything
14 May 2008 | National Politics, Illegal Aliens | 17 Comments
Lots of readers sent emails about this article in Human Events which describes HR. 5515 as a back-door attempt by House Republicans to prevent any state or local efforts to crack down on illegal immigration. I’m not sure about whether their analysis is correct, but this does seem pretty superfluous given the strength of the […]

Losing Money In A Profitable Business
14 May 2008 | Prince William County | 91 Comments
The large number of vacant foreclosed houses in Prince William County is going to cost county taxpayers an additional $2 million for lawn maintenance, if a recent article in the DC Examiner can be taken at face value. What isn’t mentioned here is that there’s a revenue side to this enforcement of the county’s zoning […]
