So they created a Black Republican district?
Or is this more racist b!tching from racist Democrats who are upset that a White Democrat will be losing his seat to a Black Democrat?
The same scenario is what led the RACIST Chris Bell (D), a three time loser (Mayor, House, and Governor), to file "ethics charges" against Tom DeLay while Mr. Bell was on his way out of office.
It's the same lesson the NRA is teaching. Don't back down and punch back twice as hard - particularly at the media. They're the enemy. Defeat them and you defeat the Democrats.
I see the rodent whiners on the website bitching about how unfair it is. Gerrymandering is the premier Democrat weapon (and was their creation when early Massachusetts rodents tried to screw a Federalist majority out of seats).
Get ‘em. Gut the Dems open and stomp their faces into the mud. Make them lose for a generation. No prisoners, no mercy.
What?
Republicans playing to win?
I can’t believe it!
Anything that really pisses off “Little Dickless Saslaw” can’t be all bad.
Now if only we can get Rep. Connelly (D-Fairfax), to get apopletic and have a stroke or heart attack. To quote Dirty Harry, that would really “Make my day”.
Hate that fascist piece of crap. He wrecked a once sane county.
I live in the ‘Rats nest of Alexandria (in order to escape Maryland).
Virginia has almost exactly 8 million people and 40 senate districts, meaning that each district should contain 200,000 people. Alexandria has 140,000 people; and neighboring Arlington has about 210,000 people. If the senate districts were sane and rational in this state, all of Alexandria would be in one district, along with 50,000 people in Fairfax County and the 10,000 people in Arlington who would not be included in an Arlington County district. Yet, Alexandria is divided among 3 separate senate districts (30, 35 and 39), and Arlington is also divided among 3 separate senate districts (30, 31 and 32). Thus, 5 different ‘Rats represent portions of either Alexandria, Arlington or both.
The ‘Rats carved up northern Virginia to make sure that no republicans could get elected up here, and they just about succeeded.
Would they re district my senate area?
My guy is a major Pub RINO....yuck.
