In case you missed it! Congressman Jim Moran (D-VA) would not allow a critic to ask a question at a town hall forum...until the man showed identification.

I moved to AZ from Arlington, VA only four months ago. I empathize with you...

Would have been interesting to see the look on his face if a Concealed Carry Permit was the ID produced.

I am RC. How did I ever miss that story about screaming at a priest? I will add it to my list. Who was the priest, and which parish? I think I want to go there if it doesn’t involved driving to Reston. My parish is entirely Spanish, which is OK, since I speak Spanish, but it is also very tolerant of law-breaking.

"I hope the RNC is archiving a bunch of this for some commercials next fall."

Do you really think they're that bright?

Lord, I can only hope and pray they have learned something from 2006 & 2008 that this is hardball when it comes to go up against the Dem’s who seem to know no low.

He is by far the worst Congresscritter ever to serve in the House of Representatives.

Good for you to find it ‘cause I couldn’t remember which parish. I went to St. Bernadette’s for quite a few yrs - taught 3rd grade for four yrs there (loved three yrs of it...)I think I know someone who now teachs at St. Rita’s and if it’s who I think it is, everyone who has kids there should steer clear of her! Yikes! All the best...

It’s Blessed Sacrament on Braddock Road. I can’t believe he created a scene in that neighborhood. He’s lucky he didn’t get thrown off the property.

It is typical Democrat arrogance ,rudeness and thuggery to refuse to answer questions from any citizen,
when they have the power to enact laws that affect all Americans.
When the CongressThugs summon people to testify before Congress,
should those testifying now refuse to answer any questions not asked by their Congressman or Senator ?

Moran is stupid without help from ANY quarter. Regretably, he is my Congressman now that we have moved into his district (tho the old district turned blue last Nov - hopefuly temporarily).

Moran’s district was drawn for him or his political soul mate. All the liberal precincts in Northern Virginia were gerrymandered into the 8th. Arlington and Alexandria are fairly hopeless, but there’s the possibility the Reston area will go against him next year after this week’s performance.

This is excellent. In fact, we should insist on it, because if it is good enough for the average citizen, then it should be the LAW when voting - no ID, no vote.

By the way, it’s OK to ask the average Joe to ask for ID to ask a question at a town hall, but out of bounds to ask the President for the Long Form BC?

Opportunity knocking, in my opinion.
