Wow!!!

I'm sure the scores of 11th district voters located in the City of Falls Church will join Mike Gardner in not voting for Gerry Connolly...

[Ben D.]

He must be on food stamps, or some other "government service".

Wow! What a smart move! I am sure this is really going to help out Falls Church. I am sure his wife, the city council members, and their constituents are dancing in the streets over his slap at the presumptive next Congressman from the 11th District. This guy must be a truly GREAT BRAIN!

Grapes still sour Ben?

The Falls Church road construction projects could go to the bottom of the federal funding lists now. NLS, no coverage on Dave Albo's crazy statements today in the Post?

[Ben D.]

Yeah, I'd love to see a post about Del. Food Stamps.

Gardner supported Byrne, not Connolly, in the primary. Of course, his endorsement meant nothing because he lives in the 8th CD like many of Byrne's supporters.

If he wants an answer on Cornejo, he should have his commonwealth attorney call Fairfax County's commonwealth attorney. Oh, I forgot that Falls Church doesn't have one. They share Arlington's commonwealth attorney.

More fall out from Gerry's candidacy

Not Jack Herrity--Thanx for backing me up on that nutsack's website. I thought no one could top this blog for overweening self-importance. How wrong I was. Blueweeds, you are now the king of condescension! And a prig, too ("fair warning on the language"). Kerrrr-rist!

This is delightful news.

The more liberals that support Fimian, the sooner we will get a pro-lifer in there.

BTW, do not invoke the name of my colleague and dear friend Grapes.

[Grapes]

Yeah, you tell 'em t.

Yeah... delightful news.

Yeah...

[Grapes]

Didn't Gardner used to play for the Caps?

Yeah...

Falls Church City sells water to many Fairfax County residents and those county taxpayers subsidize the cost of water for city residents. Falls Church City also makes a healthy profit from the deal.

The Fairfax County Water Authority wants to take over the sale of water to all Fairfax County residents so those Fairfax water customers don't continue to pay the high rates charged by Falls Church for water.

I had some charitable sympathy for Falls Church in this fight, even though they have no legal right to sell water to Fairfax residents. But now that the mayor's husband has shown his true colors, screw them. They don't deserve charity from Fairfax County and its taxpayers.

I wonder when Democrats will wise up and withdraw support from Sam Rasoul.
