Union Strongarms Dems
9 February 2011 | Fairfax County, Virginia House | No Comments
Not too many video clips of the action on the floor of the House of Delegates are very entertaining, but this one certainly is. Here’s Delegate Tim Hugo giving the smack-down to a Democrat bullied by the Communication Workers of America into opposing a bill that Democrats previously thought was uncontroversial. Note the “gentleman […]
Anti-Illegal Immigration Bills Move Forward
30 January 2011 | Illegal Aliens, Virginia House | 4 Comments
This week a number of important initiatives to crack down on illegal immigration made their way through the immigration subcommittee of the House Courts of Justice committee on a largely party-line vote, according to patch.com. Among the bills that are moving forward are ones that require the use of E-Verify to help ensure that businesses […]

Jackson Miller On Illegal Immigration Bill
16 January 2011 | Illegal Aliens, 50th HOD District | 11 Comments
Delegate Jackson Miller recently had a chance to debate someone from the open borders crowd on Fox & Friends regarding a proposed bill that would require legal presence by attendees at Virginia’s public universities and colleges. Given that taxpayers subsidize these institutions pretty heavily, it makes sense that the slots be filled by citizens, legal […]

Prince William County Chairman Corey Stewart released his draft of the Rule of Law Act today, and immediately members of the House of Delegates pledged to introduce it during next year’s session of the General Assembly. Despite the ongoing and inevitable (given the current Administration in Washington) legal wranglings that are tying up SB 1070 […]

Jackson Miller’s Blowout Event
28 July 2010 | 29th VA Senate, 50th HOD District | 7 Comments
Delegate Jackson Miller had well over 200 people pack a Manassas firehouse for a campaign event this evening, complete with a visit from Governor Bob McDonnell. What I find fascinating about something like this is here’s someone who gets top-flight support from the Governor, raises a ton of money as his sponsor list for the […]

Mike Hodge Switches Sides
7 May 2010 | 52nd HOD District | 6 Comments
Well, will you just look at that! Mike Hodge, who was defeated for the Democrat nomination for 52nd District by now-Delegate Luke Torian, has decided to become a Republican. No telling whether Torian’s far-left voting record in the House of Delegates is going to change in the next session of the General Assembly, or if […]

Marshall vs. McEachen
30 April 2010 | National Politics, 13th HOD District, Virginia Senate | 25 Comments
Tonight there was a “debate” of sorts between Delegate Bob Marshall, the author of HB 10, and Senator Donald McEachen, who amiably represents the exact polar opposite of the political spectrum. The topic of discussion was of course Obamacare. Not wanting to miss a match-up between such polar political extremes, especially when it was to […]
SB 462 Violates Law, Harms Witness Program
4 March 2010 | Illegal Aliens, Virginia House, Virginia Senate | 31 Comments
A proposal to shield illegal aliens in some circumstances from being questioned by law enforcement is under consideration by the House Courts of Justice Committee, and recently the Immigration Reform Law Institute was asked by Save The Old Dominion to evaluate the legality of this proposal after consulting with some members of the House of […]

Dems: Rush Is Gonna Eat Your Kids!
28 February 2010 | Fairfax County, Virginia House | 22 Comments
Can you believe this crap? Do Democrats really think that they’re going to win elections by saying that Rush Limbaugh is going to eat their children? I’d characterize this over-the-top hyperbole as utter desperation, if only I could make any sense out of it. Seeing that these rantings are typically reserved for the mentally disturbed, […]

25 February 2010 | Fairfax County, Virginia House | 5 Comments
Kerry Bolognese is going on air with this ad in the final week of his campaign in a special election in the 41st House District that will be held on Tuesday. I’d be interested to hear what readers thought of it.

22 February 2010 | 13th HOD District | 49 Comments
The blogsosphere, particularly on the left side of the aisle, went into quite a frenzy today as a result of Delegate Bob Marshall’s comments at a recent press conference. Virginia Virtucon has the scoop on Delegate Marshall’s response to the controversy, which should help clarify to those who misundersood what Marshall was talking about that […]
A City Attorney’s Intellectual Seppuku
17 February 2010 | 13th HOD District, Virginia Politics, Manassas City | 22 Comments
Manassas City Deputy Attorney Martin Crim demonstrates his utter lack of competence in a letter to the editor published in the Manassas News & Messenger today, making many folks wonder whether the City of Manassas deliberately hires fools, or only does so inadvertently. In a rant attacking the legal prowess of Delegate Bob Marshall and […]

E-Verify Passes House
16 February 2010 | Illegal Aliens, Crime, Virginia House | 14 Comments
Delegate Dave Albo’s HB 737 was originally designed to improve employment opportunities for the roughly 275,000 Virginians out of work by mandating that Virginia businesses use the E-Verify system, as several other states have already done. Because of concerns that Senate Democrats would kill a jobs bill if it meant that illegal aliens might be […]
Bob Marshall On Fox News
14 February 2010 | National Politics, 13th HOD District, Virginia Politics | 42 Comments
Nice to see delegate Bob Marshall get some national coverage on HB 10 on Fox News the other day. If Bob manages to inspire some other states to follow suit on this, the idea that the federal government can compel you to buy health insurance under penalty of fines and […]

Are Albo And Kilgore Pro-Abortion?
11 February 2010 | Virginia House | 54 Comments
Gosh, you have to wonder about that given this vote on HB 112. I had always been under the impression that Delegates Dave Albo and Terry Kilgore supported Life.
Maybe I was wrong.

An Unfortunately-Timed Object Lesson
10 February 2010 | Fairfax County, Virginia House | 6 Comments
Attention candidates for elected office: when you think that maybe it’s a good idea to use cheap, low-quality videos in your campaign at the same time you’re spending gobs of money on direct mail, remember this. Kerry joins a long list of good candidates who got punished for not thinking that it’s worth making sure […]

Redistricting The 50th
30 January 2010 | Manassas Park, Manassas City, Prince William County, 50th HOD District | 10 Comments
While many eyes are on the current 13th House District represented by Bob Marshall that will split into two districts in 2011, another district in Prince William County will undergo significant changes due to redistricting and that will be the 50th District, currently represented by Delegate Jackson Miller. Currently the 50th has a little under […]
