A little too late Powell
July 4, 2009 at 1:57 am | In National Politics | Leave a CommentA little too late Powell. He’s looking pretty stupid now for throwing his support behind a big Government liberal.

Obama’s take on law breaking.
July 3, 2009 at 10:15 pm | In Illegal Aliens, National Politics | Leave a CommentObama goes after Wall Street and investment bankers on the grounds they are greedy and not willing to “share” in the sacrifice for the common good. He supports laws that will increase oversight of Wall Street. There are very few examples where people on Wall Street broke the law. Yet, obama is going after Wall Street as if every single investment banker, broker, etc, is a criminal.
Now, lets see how he views people who have broken the law, illegal aliens. He sees nothing wrong with their actions, sees no greed in their law breaking, not paying taxes, not paying into Social Security, not playing by any rule whatsoever. Yet, obama wants to reward these people for breaking the law. I guess one must have a liberal “brain” to come to that type of conclusion.
Giving Praise to a foreign leader.
April 8, 2009 at 12:19 am | In National Politics | Leave a CommentImagine if a few GOP members of Congress visited a far right-wing leader who ruled his Nation with an iron fist, who had killed countless people who dared spoke out against his policies, and praised the leader. Do you think the GOP members would get a pass from the press and the Country?
Well, the below link takes you to an article not about GOP members, but about the CBC-the Congressional Black Caucus who visited the Fidel Castro and said many nice things about him. Yup, they had a good old time hanging out with a fellow Communist.

Will these “elected officials” face any backlash for their kissing up to one of the worst leaders in history? I doubt it since they were praising the right type of leader.
More bad news for City schools.
April 4, 2009 at 1:20 am | In City of Manassas, Illegal Aliens | Leave a CommentThe Commonwealth released graduation rates and the City drop out rate is 11.8% which is the highest in the area. To make matters even worse and maddening, the students we waste, err, spend the most money on, esl students have a whopping 40% drop out rate. Not much return for money spent.
Of course too many members of the City Council just want to ignore the illegal alien issue and the poor results from the schools by saying they really have no say in the matter.
I have not heard any response from the school board, though, I’m sure they are just happy the drop out rate is not higher.
Liberal whining
February 8, 2009 at 1:19 pm | In Media bias, National Politics | Leave a CommentIt is not enough that liberals have the Washington COMPOST, the NY Times, the LA Times, USA Today, Newsweek, Time, MSNBC, CNN, CBS, ABC, NBC, etc. There has been some talk now for bringing back the fairness doctrine for talk radio. The one area where Conservative voices are heard on a regular basis is on talk radio. Now, that whining Bill Press has lost a station he blames it on a vast right wing conspiracy, rather than his crappy show.
So, it seems if the libs can’t persuade the public to listen to their shows, they want the Government to force “fairness on the airwaves.
There is a simple reason why lefty talk radio does not work. Why should people turn into the radio to hear what they either just read in a newspaper or saw on TV?
Gal Nancy sticks her foot in her mouth again.
February 7, 2009 at 2:48 am | In National Politics | Leave a CommentSo much for change and a new day in Washington. Nancy says to hell with being bi-partisan.
This is why Conservatives say the media is biased.

Not only is the headline misleading, the reporter outright lies.
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090124/ap_on_go_pr_wh/obama_first_week
Obama has already reinstated funding to international groups that murder babies, but that is not divisive. Obama has attacked popular radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh. Why single out a member of the media?
Yes, Obama did visit the press room in the WH, and when a reporter asked a question Obama did not like, Obama got defensive and ignored the reporter. But according to the ap OP(Obama Press) Obama is a breath of fresh air.
Obama has a man crush on Rush.
January 24, 2009 at 4:12 am | In Uncategorized | Leave a CommentExactly what does Obama have for Rush? He simply cannot ignore him and must make comments about him all the time. Should our President really concern him with the opinions of a talk show host? http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2009/01/23/obama-quit-listening-rush-limbaugh-want-things/
Obama has already made it clear, he lied about putting the old dogma to rest. He said he wanted to reduce the murdering of babies, yet reversed a policy of President Bush that banned providing money to international groups that murder babies. Now, Obama says the GOP should stop listening to Rush or else. Well, maybe Obama should stop listening to the anti-Americans who post on the daily Kos, and the folks at moveon.org. Yet, somehow I don’t expect Obama to stop paying attention to them.
Obama simply wants to turn America into a socialist Nation where the Government tells us what we can eat, drive, where to work etc. He wants to provide bailout money to people that do not pay taxes, and wants to appoint a tax cheat to head the Treasury Department.
Another cave in by the City School Board.
December 11, 2008 at 2:32 am | In City of Manassas | Leave a CommentIt seems the City School Board could not stand to not also weigh in on the election. The school board voted to close schools on inauguration day. Now, if the City has had a history of this, then I see nothing wrong with this. However, if this is more of the cult of personality that has been all the rage, then I can’t disagree more on this decision.
Santa Came to Town.
December 10, 2008 at 3:37 am | In City of Manassas | Leave a CommentOn 12/05/08, Santa made his yearly appearance in Old Town Manassas via the VRE train. After eating supper at Foster’s Grille, CitizenofManassas Jr and I walked around town waiting for the “Santa Train” to arrive. There are a few new stores in town, and we were able to visit a couple of them.
Of course we made it back in time to the train station and waited in anticipation for Santa. Jr, got a big trill in being able to give Santa a hug before Santa hopped on the wagon to move over to light the Christmas Tree. We left soon after, knowing the Christmas countdown has started in earnest.
