Jim Moran re-election

Jim Moran is up for re-election again. And he doesn't seem too worried. Yet the more I surf around the Net, the more I find reasons why people should not vote for him. Why has been re-elected in spite of his frequent comments and actions that would suggest that he is not fit for public office?

I want to encourage all of you to consider voting for Matt "The Democrat." He's a democratic challenger against Moran in this year's primary election. Please visit his website. And if you are interested, please volunteer. Send an email to stampbuff AT stamphistorybuff DOT com.

The primary election is June 10th in the 8th district.

Thanks everybody!

Is this the same guy I've seen on the Metro? He's in a wheelchair and has political signs with him? He also seems real outgoing and says "hi" to everybody and tries to start conversations with the people around him. I don't recognize the pic on his website, but I do remember the guy had signs that said "(some name The Democrat".

That's funny if this is him, he seems like an interesting (eccentric) guy, it was an entertaining ride home the day I stood next to him.

Because he is an anti-Semitic racist like all the people who vote for him? He stands with Jimmy Carter in publicly promoting the downfall of an entire race and nation.

I would vote for a dog if it ran against Jim Moron. Fortunately I am
no longer one of his constituents. If you want a real laugh, take a
look at his voting record on "unfunded mandates". One night years ago,
I was channel surfing on the tube when I came across a call in talk show
with him decrying unfunded mandates in the Congress. I managed to get
a call through and let him have it because his middle
name should be "UnfundedMandates". When confronted with this he merely
hung up on me. I take comfort though in the fact that every time he sees
me at a public forum he gets so mad he gets sick. (Just where I want him
to be) This guy is a turkey with a capitol "T" and its time for him to
go. Some alcohol rehab might be in order too.

Maybe he needs to spend more time being bipartisan... like drinking with Vito Fossella!

Maybe if the Democrats get a big enough majority in the House, they can finally cut this a-hole loose. He is as much as an embarrassment to Democrats as that crook Jim Trafficant was for Republicans.

CASE IN POINT:




Traficant was seriously entertaining back in the day! Moran doesn't hold a candle to him.

When will the people of Alexandria and Fairfax wake up and realize it's time to have a real Congressman(woman) representing them.

It's time for Jimbo to Go!
