LETTER: Connolly is a hypocrite

It is very puzzling how our congressman and the AARP could come to our retirement community (Heritage Hunt) and conduct a town hall meeting concerning the health care debate and tell the people one thing and vote another.

LETTER: Manassas in Super Bowl

Two area youth football teams, 75 pound American Pride Warriors, 9-1, coached by Joe Blount, and the 150 pound Manassas Sharks, 10-0, coached by Brian Edwards, are playing for the Washington Metro Super Bowl Championship this tomorrow at Madison High School in Vienna.

LETTER: Greed will be our downfall

The United States is the wealthiest nation in the world. We always strived to be number one, hence that is something to be proud of.

LETTER: Connolly a Pelosi puppet

Gerald Connolly, our inept representative from the 11th District, has once more shown he is a puppet for Nancy Pelosi by voting for her health bill monstrosity. 


November 18, 2009

LETTER: Thank you to Rep. Wolf

Thank you Rep. Frank Wolf for being a leader in trying to get this government to recognize and understand where all this federal spending is leading this country (News and Messenger, Nov. 13).

LETTER: My body is my business

It was brought to my attention today that there is a government health care task force that claims all women get too many mammograms and that self-examination is worthless.

What is wrong with the signal timing of traffic lights on Old Bridge Road?

President Obama is correct in his statement for which he is criticized by Republicans.

LETTER: Vote no to Walgreens

Today, Nov. 17, at 7:30 p.m. at the McCoart Building, the Prince William Board of County Supervisors will decide whether another natural resource will be chopped up by a developer.

LETTER: The horror of snuff movies

What is meant by a “snuff” movie? Are there such films, or is it an urban legend? A snuff film is a motion picture genre that depicts the actual death or murder of a person or people, without the aid of special effects, for profit and entertainment.

LETTER: Need uplifting items on front

Bad form and extremely poor taste!


November 16, 2009

LETTER: Objection to the word ‘snuff’

I must object to the wording used to describe the execution of John Allen Muhammad.

LETTER: Happy with Amtrak, Postal Service?

When I heard the news of the landmark vote on so-called health care reform in the House of Representatives last week, I looked at my wife and saw in her eyes a look of shock and dread.

LETTER: Praise the American Legion

I give praise for American Legion Post 10 for sponsoring such a beautiful memorial parade for World War II veterans. The dedicated work and coordination of the details involved in this project was of great excellence.

LETTER: Sucking profits from our pockets

For-profit insurance companies are the problem, not the solution.

LETTER: A hidden agenda

I can no longer stand on the sideline and read the one-sided story about public school trailer classrooms and whether or not the Planning Commission should be conducting Public Facility Reviews.


November 13, 2009

LETTER: Did Iraq war lead to Fort Hood?

Del. L. Scott Lingamfelter suggests that, in response to the Fort Hood massacre, we should “pray for the families involved…” I have a better idea. Why don’t we stop electing people like George W. Bush and Dick Cheney to positions of responsibility?

LETTER: Liberalism led to shootings

Terrorist Nidal Hassan committed the first act of Islamic terrorism on American soil since George W. Bush left office.

LETTER: Candidate gives her thanks

I want to express my deep gratitude to all of you who shared your time and resources by volunteering on my campaign, offering advice, graciously talking with me when I knocked on your doors, and who cast your vote for me. It was truly a pleasure to meet you and to work with you.

Market can still aid health care

Although serious problems exist within our current health care system, and despite recent legislation which poses it serious peril, history and economics teach us markets are resilient.

Relief over House vote

We heard the news of the landmark vote on health care in the House of Representatives over coffee on Sunday morning.

New form of the death penalty

This is directed to those liberal do-gooders who are opposed to the death penalty by lethal injection because they believe that it it is cruel and inhuman punishment.

What’s with the comics lately?

I know they’re just the comics.

Back Recreation Manassas work

When the City of Manassas shut down its Recreation and Parks Department last December, the city lost an advocate for recreation.

Marshall stands for area values

The liberal media often sends us a message that social issues are of little if any importance at all.


November 09, 2009

LETTER: Who made Willis a speaker?

Who appointed Steve Willis as speaker for Rep. Gerry Connolly’s constituents (News & Messenger, Sept. 20)? 


November 07, 2009

LETTER: Thanks to Del. Paul Nichols

On Tuesday, the residents of the 51st District made their choice for the Virginia House of Delegates.

LETTER: Embarrassed by the county

I have lived in Prince William County for nearly 30 years, and for the first time, I am truly embarrassed for my hometown.


November 06, 2009

LETTER: Where are we heading?

The more I read, hear or see, the more disgusted I get with the direction our country is taking.

LETTER: Congratulations to candidates

Congratulations to all candidates. It is a pleasure to have conservatives strongly representing our commonwealth.
