Go find the YouTube video of him yelling at Jim Jordan. Not. Quiet.. In my pro choice, pro sensible gun law, pro public school moderate liberal mind: He’s good. What do you want him to do? Sex in a theatre like Lauren Bobert? |
He's basically WMATA's biggest federal backer. If it wasn't for Connolly, we would be in much rougher shape. |
| Back in 2015 I went to a Clinton appearance in OT and he appeared and opened up with “Hello Arlington” and I’ve never gotten past that. |
|
Nothing. He has never done anything. I am not a Dem but I don't hate him. He's your typical old-school Fairfax technocrat. He always advocates for federal workers and his constituents.
He maintains a low-profile in a seat that is perfect for him. Whoever replaces him when he retires will be awful so I guess I'm glad we have him. |
Some FCPS school board idiot will replace him and be absolutely obnoxious. I hope he stays in good health and can stay in office until this crazy era ends. |
| Every year I ask for the White House Christmas ticket, but he do not give |
|
Not everyone can be a rockstar like AOC, or the others on The Squad.
We need representatives who will quietly go to work, and vote as the party tells them to. |
Gerry is my rep and Gym Jordan is my parents’ rep in Ohio and I remember when that happened my parents thought it was hilarious! They think Jordan is a total idiot. |
| He's a milquetoast Dem, he does nothing and that makes me happy. I feel bad for the people stuck in districts with loud, annoying congressmen. |
+1, he's my rep and there's little that can be done as part of the minority. I've watched him in a couple of the weaponization hearings and he's good at calling out the other side on their BS...but really the hearings are a waste of everybody's time. |
| Gerry is amazing. Effective and powerful while still being low-key and under the radar. He’s like a stealth fighter. |
He's had a couple of "Outbursts" in Congressional hearings, one involved him with Tom Homan on the safety of migrant children and another one on Trump's initial response to Covid-19. |
Also, I don't think he purposely wants to be "Low-Key"; he ran to be the Chairman of the Oversight Committee for the Dems but lost to Jamie Raskin. |

Well, among many things, he helped in the ability to create the CCT mountain bike trail for bikers.
Thanks Gerry! Its even named after him. He does alot. |
