Connolly Finally Blinks
6 March 2010 | Gerry Connolly | 22 Comments
Keith Fimian and RPV kept up a steady barrage of criticism against Gerry Connolly for accepting money from the scandal-ridden Charlie Rangel, forcing Connolly to cast off $9,000 from his campaign fund lest his close association with Rangel become a campaign issue. Once again, Connolly is reacting to Keith Fimian who has been on his […]

The Post Still Can’t Engineer A Primary Battle
6 January 2010 | Gerry Connolly, Fairfax County, US Congress, Prince William County | 14 Comments
Since the Washington Post hasn’t managed to engineer a primary battle in the 11th District yet, it ran yet another story today which basically announces that Pat Herrity has not decided to contest Keith Fimian. This time unnamed “Republican officials” (as opposed to the WashPo’s editorial board) are credited with “pressuring Herrity to announce his […]

Tea Party Protest Dwarfs Organizing For America
13 November 2009 | Gerry Connolly, National Politics, Fairfax County | 16 Comments
“Organizing For America”, the collective behind President Obama’s perpetual campaign, decided to lend some assistance to the beleagured Congressman Gerry Connolly this afternoon by holding a “thank you rally” in front of his office in Annandale. Four days ago, an email started rallying the Obama troops to come to the defense of Connolly, suggesting a pretty […]

‘Hands Off My Healthcare’ In PWC
10 November 2009 | Gerry Connolly, National Politics, Prince William County | 14 Comments
With 24 hour’s notice and on a weekday to boot, about 200 people showed up in front of Gerry Connolly’s district office in Prince William County to protest his support of Pelosi-ObamaCare, which is a pretty amazing turnout. Of particular note at this event, one of Connolly’s staffers was taking video […]

Connolly Vote Open Thread
8 November 2009 | Gerry Connolly | 28 Comments
So Gerry Connolly voted for Pelosi-ObamaCare, and a lot of eleventh district residents are pretty upset from the looks of the comment sections in several posts. My question is, what are those of you frustrated by this going to do about it? I assume sitting on the couch isn’t in the plans of many, but so […]

Keith Fimian Savages The HealthCare Bill
7 November 2009 | Gerry Connolly, National Politics, Fairfax County, Prince William County | 32 Comments
Keith Fimian held a press conference in front of Gerry Connolly’s district office today where he delivered a tough critique of the current 2,000 plus page monstrosity of a bill that the House is debating. You’d think Democrats would at least allow consideration of some of the common-sense alternatives that […]

What A Shock: Connolly Likes ObamaCare
7 November 2009 | Gerry Connolly, National Politics | 10 Comments
Not much of a surprise here, but the behavior of Gerry Connolly just seems like the gift that keeps on giving to bloggers.
Connolly has been telling people that he wasn’t sure how he would vote on the monstrosity of the ObamaCare bill and wanted to get more information and see how the bill was amended. […]

Let The Fireworks Begin!
6 November 2009 | Gerry Connolly, Fairfax County, US Congress, Prince William County | 8 Comments
Now this should be interesting. Gerry Connolly has handed Keith Fimian a wagonload of political ammunition for his challenge over the past several days, and I’m betting he’s going to start using it right away. Bully for him!
Keith Fimian will be holding a press conference on Saturday, November 7, 2009 at 10 AM to […]

Welcome listeners of THE GREAT ONE, Mark Levin! (Mark refers to this post around minute 75 in his program)
Today there are lots of people trying to lobby their elected officials on the health care bill pending in Congress, and Gerry Connolly tried to get one of them arrested on false charges of assault, setting a […]

Connolly In The Crosshairs
5 November 2009 | Gerry Connolly, National Politics, Illegal Aliens | 19 Comments
Right after the Democrats get spanked in Virginia and New Jersey, the Congress decides now is the time to bring up a health care bill that specifically includes providing care for illegal aliens, and Pelosi lapdogs like Gerry Connolly are squarely sitting in ground-zero in the fight raging today. Have these people gone absolutely […]

Corey Stewart Delivers An Education On Transportation
2 October 2009 | Gerry Connolly, 51st HOD District, Prince William County | 15 Comments
Prince William County Chairman Corey Stewart’s opinion piece in the Bull Run Observer about promoting metro as the solution to our transportation problems, something Congressman Gerry “Cowardly” Connolly and Delegate Paul Nichols have advocated, is getting a lot more attention than a piece in this small (yet quite impressive) publication would usually merit. No one has […]

Moran Votes to Keep ACORN in Clover
18 September 2009 | Gerry Connolly, National Politics, Crime | 5 Comments
Guest Post by Sanford D. Horn
This shouldn’t be news, because it comes as no surprise, yet it must be reported that US Representative Jim Moran (VA-8th), in his usual lack of brain power, voted NOT to de-fund ACORN. Oh, and as an aside, US Representative Gerry Connolly (VA-11th) opted to not even cast a vote on […]

Gerry “Cowardly” Connolly
3 September 2009 | Gerry Connolly, US Congress | 8 Comments
Congressman Gerry Connolly doesn’t seem to be all that popular with his constituents from the looks of this video, which might have something to do with the fact that Gerry Connolly won’t allow them to participate with him in any Town Hall meetings on the subject of healthcare. As some constituents-relegated-to-protesters […]

Got this in my inbox from someone who was at Heritage Hunt today, where Congressman Gerry Connolly will be holding a Town Hall meeting tonight:
We just got back from my mom’s place and while there watched the [Heritage Hunt] announcements on their internal cable channel. That’s the same system I have. Last time I watched it they […]

Term Limits With ObamaCare
29 August 2009 | Gerry Connolly, US Congress | 8 Comments
This segment from the Recess Rally in front of Congressman Gerry Connollly’s District office features a constituent demanding that Congress enroll in the same program they are trying to force on the rest of the country and who asks why it’s supposedly OK for people to demand that government stay out […]

11th District Town Hall, But No Gerry Connolly
28 August 2009 | Gerry Connolly, Fairfax County, Prince William County | 5 Comments
If Congressman Gerry Connolly won’t allow a public discussion about healthcare reform and the real alternatives that are available other than socializing the whole thing, then Keith Fimian will. Once again we’re seeing that real leadership in the 11th District isn’t coming from the person pulling a taxpayer-funded paycheck to provide it, but from the challenger […]

A Veteran Speaks Out On ObamaCare
27 August 2009 | Gerry Connolly, National Politics, US Congress | 3 Comments
Former Fairfax County School Board Member Steve Hunt weighed in on ObamaCare when constituents came to Congressman Gerry Connolly’s office, offering some interesting alternatives to the proposal that Congress is considering. You’d think that with all the good ideas that Republicans are coming up with, the majority in Congress might want […]

Normally it’s the adults that instruct the children, but in this video we see a young boy demonstrate more sense about the responsibilities of our legislators than Congressman Gerry Connolly has ever demonstrated. Thanks to fellow activist Lisa Miller for helping out with the interviews on these!

25 August 2009 | Gerry Connolly, US Congress | 6 Comments
While Congressman Gerry Connolly didn’t want to hear from constituents in the 11th District, his opponent Keith Fimian did. Here’s a segment where Keith talks about how bad ObamaCare looks and what alternatives the Democrats in Congress are ignoring that would make real improvements in the quality, cost and availability of […]

Connolly Announces A Last-Minute Town Hall
25 August 2009 | Gerry Connolly, US Congress | 9 Comments
This morning the email inbox is abuzz with an announcement that Gerry Connolly will be holding a Town Hall meeting tomorrow. How nice that Connolly is giving people such short notice. Is he hoping that too few people could rearrange their schedules in one day so they could attend a Town Hall meeting that starts at 3:30 […]
