Poor Miss Helen Sorto. I am sorry you are so uneducated about this city and its history.

Responding to Steve O. Dixon’s endorsement of Gerry Connolly for Congressman of the 11th District.

I was appalled at the paper’s headline about the group homes.

Board of County Supervisor members are limping. They used their “budget-is-tight” gun to kill financially insignificant programs that aid seniors and troubled kids and in so doing, they have shot themselves in the foot. 

Jim Gilmore’s slash and burn campaign tactics at the Republican Party convention this weekend did a disservice to the voters of Virginia.

Two articles were published recently about Washington, D.C., area congestion that have an interesting connection. The first concerns a study just published by FORBES magazine that ranks the D.C. area first in the nation for congestion, with over 28 percent of commuters spending more than 45 minutes on the road every day. 

It was a sad day for America when Barack Obama was officially announced as the Democratic candidate to move on to the 2008 general election.

He was laughing hysterically right after he said it. It was quite obvious that he enjoyed his nasty joke at the National Press Club the other day. The funny man was no less that the vice president of the United States, feeling real good after putting down the people of West Virginia.

Last Thursday, the Prince William County Schools had their “Classy Awards” presentation.

You xenophobes complain about illegal aliens, emphasizing that they are breaking the law by being here, which is true. However, it is hypocritical to expect others to obey the law while it is certain that you all violate the law everyday.

On June 3, Mr. Westhoff wrote a letter indicating Barack Obama is better suited for the presidency because he will use diplomacy and force to deal with our adversaries whereas John McCain will allegedly only use force.

The passing of one of our community’s giants has left a legacy on Prince Williams County. Father Paul W. Mitchell, as I knew him, has contributed a lifetime to helping those in need. 

During the last two years of the Barack H. Obama campaign, the Potomac News has continuously stifled any negative facts about Obama.

Please help save a treasure that has been keeping families together for over 17 years! The Manassas Senior Day Program will close June 20 unless many attend the June 17 Board of Supervisors Meeting, 2 p.m. at the McCoart Building.

There have been several articles about the 9500 Liberty Street property.

As a lifetime resident of Virginia, I am disappointed in Frank Wolf’s policies on global warming and other environmental issues.

On Wednesday, May 21, the Hylton Bulldogs Girls Lacrosse Team and the Woodbridge Vikings Boys Lacrosse team each traveled about four hours to Roanoke to play their regional playoff games. Apparently, seeing the other team there was pretty much a surprise to both local teams, especially as contests between Hylton and Woodbridge for any sport, at any level, are usually a bit spirited.

Today is the Democratic Party primary for our 11th Congressional District. 

Once again Prince William County is in the news.

I’m a citizen of Manassas and, more importantly, a citizen of Northern Virginia. As such, I’ve been extremely disappointed that Frank Wolf has not taken a stand about global warming and the effects it has on everyone.

I viewed the front page of the Potomac News on May 30 with mixed emotions.

I would like to offer my personal congratulations to Del. Jeffrey M. Frederick, R-Woodbridge, on his election to the chairmanship of the Virginia Republican Party. 

I recently attended the WMZQ Fest with five friends. I very much looked forward to an exciting event at, what I was told, a wonderful venue. I was greatly disappointed. 

In his May 30 letter, Tim Singstock urges us to vote for John McCain, because he is experienced and Barack Obama is not.

I find it truly ironic that Gregg Reynolds hates the assimilation of illegal aliens and uses the guise of “immigrant” to shed a hateful euphemism towards legitimate and legal immigrants.

He was outspent 14 times over, ran an abbreviated campaign of less than 6 months, with no name recognition outside of Prince William County and came within 1 percent of capturing the Republican Senate nomination because of a principled run on defense of life and small government. 

When you attempt to label a fellow citizen a “Hate Filled Racist” you have lost the debate.

Columnist Cal Thomas calls Barack Obama a “polar opposite of John F. Kennedy,” (“Obama: See No Evil” May 30) for contemplating negotiations with unfriendly nations.

Why has the City of Manassas started ticketing cars in the lot across the tracks from the Thursday Farmers Market?

What is the fuss about this wall on Liberty street? I pass it every day and I never see any trash. Maybe the lawn could be cut, but other than that there is nothing wrong.
