Help Save Manassas will have its monthly meeting this Thursday at Manassas City Hall’s Council Chambers, starting at 7:30PM. Joining us (barring some last-minute emergency, which has happened before) we will be briefed by a representative of the Northern Virginia Gang Task Force. Although gang activity is not at all solely related to [...]
Frank Principi Helps Developer Lobbyists
Have the developers in Prince William County found a new opportunity to influence elected officials in local Democrats? It sure looks that way, given this email that recently went out to residents in the 52st District:

Help Ken Cuccinelli
While there has been a spate of Republicans who seem to act at times as anything but Republican (or conservatives for that matter) there are a few proven conservative candidates out there who are running and can use your support. One of them is Senator Ken Cuccinelli who is running for Attorney General. He needs [...]
Firefox Is Not Beating Internet Explorer
J’s Notes is reporting that Firefox has overtaken Microsoft Internet Explorer in the latest round of the “browser war” (such as it is these days), although I haven’t seen it. It would be nice to see MSIE fade away, as it’s a pain to support since it doesn’t support industry standards, but tries to impose [...]

Happy Veterans Day
To all my fellow veterans, happy Veterans Day.
To those who might not remember why this day was chosen to honor those who served, on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month of 1918, the guns finally fell silent in “The Great War” now known as World War One. This day was [...]
Now He Tells Us…
Less than one week after becoming Congressman-elect, Gerry Connolly is calling for a hike in the federal gas tax. I suppose he feels as a first-term Congressman he’s going to pull the weight necessary to earmark all this for the 11th District? Or does he feel its a good idea to get ahead of the [...]
The Backbiting Must Stop
One GOP unit Chairman for Greenville-Emporia (total population about the size of Manassas Park, VA) has called on RPV Chairman Jeff Frederick To resign, prompting “The Contemporary Conservative” to post Carla Harris’ letter underneath a post title that alleges that GOP Chairmen are calling for RPV Chairman Jeff Frederick to resign. If one obscure unit [...]
Deportations Of Illegal Aliens Surge
The number if illegal aliens identified and deported in the D.C. area has dramatically increased this year according to the Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and although they don’t identify Prince William County as a major reason why law enforcement is becoming more effective, these numbers clearly are bolstered by the dramatic increase in [...]
CPAC Disses McCain
In December conservatives will gather in D.C. at the Conservative Political Action Committee Conference to hear from conservative leaders and define how the conservative movement might weather an Obama presidency. Speakers will include Newt Gingrich, Bobby Jindal, and even (somewhat incongruously) Sarah Palin. One of last year’s big name invitees is not getting an invitation. [...]
The Perp Is Caught
This fine looking Gainesville resident by the name of Daniel Jackson was arrested in connection with the satanist and anti-McCain graffiti that appeared on the morning of October 25th in Gainesville. As a poster boy for the ObamaManiacs, he is a little bit underwhelming. There’s good news however, in that the police have determined that [...]
Political Correctness Becomes Outright Racism
As the leaders of the Peace & Justice Committee at All Saints Catholic Church would put it, the cost of the crackdown on illegal immigration is that illegal aliens who behave themselves in such a way that casual observers might feel that there’s a case of domestic violence in progress should not be arrested [...]

Republicans Lose In Manassas Park
While Peter Farrell won in Manassas Park, Brian Leeper did not. The cabal in Manassas Park continues, dependent on how Peter Farrell and Suhas Naddoni are willing to challenge the established political machine in the Park. If they do, the troubled jurisduction could sgnificantly improve.
Our prayers are with the new Council members as they embark [...]
Obama Wins
With Pennsylvania and Ohio going for Obama, this race is over.
May God save the United States of America.
11th District Battle
Keith Fiminan needed to have a strong margin in Prince William County in order to win the 11th District, and the early returns (with about a third of the vote in) shows that’s not happening. This isn’t over, but so far it’s looking as if the abysmal Gerry Connolly is the likely winner in the [...]
Wittman Wins In the 1st District
Returns show that Rob Wittman has retained his seat in the First District, beating Bill Day handily. Not much of a surprise, since he failed to unseat Delegate Scott Lingamfelter in the 31st District, which didn’t exactly demonstrate strong electoral support for him in a Congressional race.
Going forward, Wittman should be considered pretty secure in [...]
Wolf Wins 10th District
Early returns indicate that Frank Wolf has once again dispatched the hapless socialist Judy Feder in the 10th District. Wolf has been strong on immigration issues over the last year, and it’s an expected piece of good news to see him re-elected amidst so much wishy-washiness on the immigration issue in national politics.
Warner Wins Senate
Fox News is reporting at 7:10 that Markh Warner has won his Senate race. Not much of a surprise here, although it’s somewhat depressing that a tax hike like Warner can cruise to victory so easily.
I wonder how this would have turned out if Bob Marshall was the Republican nominee. I daresay he couldn’t have [...]
All Your Money Are Belong To Us
Congressman Jim Moran (D-8th District) sums up one of the major themes of this election:

Election Day Open Thread
I’ll be watching events in Virginia from afar while I’m on a business trip, but you can keep other readers up to date on what is going on on election day. Are there irregularities at the polls? Are local election officials doing a great job at dealing with the turnout as I expect? When you [...]
Osbourn High School: Walk Of Rememberance
There have been two suicides and one accidental death among Osborn High School students in the past month, as well as a 26 year old who shot herself in front of her brother who is a student. Our kids have had to deal with these tragedies over the past month, but no longer must they [...]
