Snapped Shot

My new neighborhood here in deep liberal Fairfax County, Virginia went 60%+ for McCain.

I will sleep well tonight in the knowledge that I live amongst sane people. With lots of guns.

Semper Fi, y'all!

My humble prediction, which is almost never accurate: McCain wins for President. Warner wins for Senate. Connolly the crony wins for House.

Be sure to make your own map over yonder.

Just another peaceful day in the "real" Virginia... that's almost exclusively populated by "peaceful" and "tolerant" Democrats:

Can I resist two Gerry Connolly-bashing stories in a row?

I can not. Bashing Gerry Connolly is what I do.

The latest news flash is that here in Gerry Connolly's Fairfax County, officials are preemptively rejecting absentee votes cast by active duty U.S. Military servicemen and women.

This is the same Fairfax County that's encouraging shiftless young college students to vote illegally, of course.

Gee, I wonder where the difference in the interpretation of election law comes from?

Keith Fimian and his ad people are absolutely frickin' brilliant:



For full disclosure, Gerry Connolly's company just happens to be the same company I work for. Also for the record, they have yet to "reward" me for "accidentally" relocating billion-dollar public works projects to right outside their doorstep.

... and I must say, his car is full of awesome—Though I do think the lanterns on the side just might be just a touch over the top.

An Instylanche? Awesome!! I bet none of you have heard the press report on this assassination plot, foiled in nearby Fairfax, Virginia. We always have plenty more around here to read, so please feel free to browse around and check out the fun stuff we have over this way!

An article written by the "non-partisan" and "unbiased" The New York Times.

See title above, rinse, repeat.

Just stabbing the "innocent restaurant patrons" that Americans won't stab:

A man was stabbed in the hand at a Vienna restaurant on Oct. 11.

Police were called to El Punto Restaurant on Cedar Lane in Vienna on Saturday night. There, officers encountered a male victim with wounds on his wrist and hand. He was taken to a hospital with non life-threatening injuries. Alexis Lopez-Canacas, 26, has been charged with malicious wounding.

Of course, by "innocent restaurant patrons," I mean "gang-banging scum." Not that the distinction matters in this case.

And far be it from me to point out to Gerry Connolly that inviting illegal aliens, amongst whom some of the worst gang-bangers in the County hide, is not a good way to increase law-abiding business in the County.

Of course, if Gerry plans on doing in Congress what he's done so well in the County Board of Supervisors—namely, pander in the worst way to his friendly "undocumented Americans"—we can surely plan on having even more delightfully tolerant incidents like this!

On a related note, people in Springfield are positively atwitter at the City's latest plans to salvage... er, make that "revitalize" Springfield Mall, which is often a topic of discussion around these parts. Continue reading »

What, books with a "Christian viewpoint" aren't welcome in Fairfax County Public School libraries?

The shock!

On the contrary, I'm willing to bet dollars. to. donuts. that such "values-neutral," completely viewpoint-free books as King & King and Daddy's Roommate are featured prominently on FCPS library shelves, and have even been used in our classrooms to indoctrinate our children into the Stalinist mindset that is expected of them oops, I mean "educate them about the core value of tolerance.*"

How dare we scary Christians even try to interfere with the State Religion of Sodomy! After all, we pay our fair share of tax money into the school system. Why can't we get the message and just shut up for once?

The nerve, I tell ya.

What's next? Threatening the sanctity of the Sacrament of Environmental Absurdism?

(*Tolerance towards Christians excluded.)

He voted present.

On the bill that would've helped resolve some of the regulatory problems with Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac.

Talk about change you can believe in!

Why is it that Democrats only ever "regret" comments they've made if the comments in question threaten their electability?

Warner has made no mention of his prior positions before, but now that his "commentary" on we ignorant Virginians is making the rounds, he suddenly finds it necessary to apologize.

At least by saying you didn't stand by his past remarks, we know that we'll need to "selectively" listen to his future ones.

Earlier today, when I was stopped at a stop sign going through Gerry Connolly's diverse and tolerant Vienna, Virginia today, another driver flew right up next to me in his silver Acura.

He then proceeded to lean out the window, shake his fists at me, and yell in my general direction pretty loudly.

Of course, seeing how I drive a nice and cozy Saturn Aura, and my windows were up, I didn't hear a word of what he said. Which means Saturn has worked wonders in sound-proofing the car, no?

I'm guessing that he must be a fellow fan or something. It's a mystery to me.

Anyway, while I'm on the topic, and before I go and pass out, the Mrs. has pointed me to a group of Russians celebrating American politics, as only Russians can.

With poetry, yo!

To wit, a poem which will evoke the very essence of America's own Walt Whitman:

И как бы демы не пытались (No matter how hard the "Dems" try)
Надеть стране тюрбан чумазый, (to make the country [America] wear a grimy turban)
Мы победим, не зря ж старались - (We [Republicans] will win, we didn't do it for nothing)
Утопим сучек в нефти с газом ("Da b*tches" will drown in oil and gas)

More neo-classic Russian poetry beyond the fold. Continue reading »

Means asking the kinds of questions that we all want to know. The kinds of questions that should never really need to be asked in a "civilized" nation.

Sadly, at least as far as Fairfax County goes, I think I already know what the answer is going to be.

Who knew that Joe Biden has had Americans' Mother Russia's interests at heart for so many years?

Of course, considering that the Democratic Party saw nothing wrong with nominating a man who admittedly went to Moscow to dodge the draft for the Presidency, and then subsequently elected him (twice) to that office, I doubt the left's going to think much of this.

After all, America Is Always Wrong, Man.
