Happy Thanksgiving - Let’s Talk Turkey

Thursday, November 22nd, 2007
heidiandjohncarvingturkey92.jpg After careful contemplation, it was decided not to title this thread - “Turkey carves Turkey”.  For those who don’t know this is Supervisor Stirrup and his wife carving the turkey.  The thread title - ‘Let’s Talk Turkey’ is my second choice but I thought it more appropriate.

First of all, I’m thankful for being a citizen of this great country. Thankful that other like minded individuals are out there and are willing to participate in the democratic process. Thankful for the support from family and friends. Thankful for all the visitors that continue to come to the site even after the election.

Not bad response time.

Thursday’s post entitled, ‘Can someone let Stirrup know his precincts changed back in 2005?‘ produces action on Monday.  Obviously, either someone from Stirrup’s office is monitoring the site or he was notified of the mistake that he had on his website’s homepage.  So now, two years after the changes took affect he has it straight, there are eleven districts in the Gainesville magesterial district.  The districts are as follows: Alvey, Battlefield, Bull Run, Evergreen, Glenkirk, Mountain View, Mullen, Sinclair, Stonewall, Sudley North and Westgate.

Can someone let Stirrup know his precincts changed back in 2005?

Gainesville District Precinct Map It appears either Gainesville Supervisor Stirrup does not know his own precincts or his camera wielding, website administering assistant does not.  Check his homepage at http://www.gainesvillesupervisor.com/, and this is what you’ll find -

Welcome to the Gainesville District!

The Gainesville Magisterial District is one of seven districts that comprise the political subdivision of Prince William County.  The Gainesville District is located in the northwestern end of the county and is made up of nine precincts:
Bull Run, Catharpin, Evergreen, Haymarket, Mullen, Plantation, Sinclair, Stonewall and Westgate.

Okay, hold-up a second here.  What happened to the Glenkirk precinct?  And what is Plantation?

Actually, you can’t get there from here…

It has come to my attention that Toll Brothers is under no obligation to pave the remainder of the Waverly Farm Loop from Gravely Elementary School to Route 15 until the “development of the adjacent land bays” which in the current real estate market could take quiet some time.  Maybe Supervisor Stirrup can use his discretionary funds to pave another road?

Stirrup proclaims membership to ‘Help Save’ Movement

Monday, November 12th, 2007

Stirrup proclaims membership to ‘Help Save’ Movement.  Interested in knowing the leadership of the Help Save Manassas Group?  Well, here you go… And my only question is how, how could anyone follow this logic but especially how could our Gainesville District Supervisor proclaim membership or an alliance to this?

The countdown is on, 3 years 362 days…

The countdown is on, 3 years 362 days until we can remove the dastardly duo of Stewart/Stirrup from power.  Let me clarify the term, “we” by “we”, I mean the voters of Prince William County.  For those who need clarification, or are clamoring for a ‘legal disclaimer’ here you go -

Stonewall Antics

Wednesday, November 7th, 2007

Reports of intimidation on the part of the Republican party at Stonewall Middle school in Manassas are starting to surface.  Reportedly the Republican representatives are Board Members of the group called ‘Help Save Manassas.’  Investigations are underway and hopefully the culprits can be quickly identified.

Good Run Riley, Pandak
