The _____ is getting ready to hit the fan in Va. And it needs to. All the nastiness needs to come out. It’s local swamp cleaning time. Then we need to find good quality candidates to replace all those that we clear out.

lol. va is so f*cked.
Where there’s one, there’s usually more.

Those in power in the VA Dem Party are saying, we need to consider the Political consequences before calling for Coonman to step down!
The Truth comes out! They’re manufactured outrages is based on their Political objectives.
This is the equivalent of saying Trump’s not racist, but it helped us to achieve our goals by claiming he is!

Should read:
Their manufactured outrages are based on their purely Political objectives.

So true
It’s not the evidence.
It’s the seriousness of the charge!

Fairfax sounds just like a disciple of Saul Alinsky and his “Rules for Radicals”. Turn your enemies’ attacks back against them or a related target.
Yep. That’s Fairfax all right.
