Wow! I hadn’t heard that. Very sad. |

So why didn’t you do what you would have done a year ago, and taken backroads into DC, because no non=HIV traffic on 66? Apparently, it was worth $28 to you. |

| Comstock was blessed with a really terrible opponent in 2016. She should have lost then. |

Are you in college? Now you know what it’s like to have your rights limited like the rest of us minorities. |

Also you’re saying Betsy restored those rights so . . . |

Who on earth is taking away your "civil rights?!! What precisely, are they taking away?! The fact remains is that you don't want to share those civil rights, and stand beside a fully equal black person, a Muslim person, an atheist, a naturalized immigrant, a person who speaks another language, a gay person, a trans person. The Democratic party is happy to welcome you with open arms standing shoulder to shoulder with these Americans. |

Don't bother. This was a contrived post, and Comstock is out. And her departure will have no impact on Devos's decision to rescind some of the Obama Administration's guidelines on how colleges receiving federal funds should investigate alleged assault cases (i.e., under a "preponderance of the evidence" standard lower than the prior "clear and convincing evidence" standard). |

| Congratulations Wexton! She won easily and will be a much better representative for his district than Comstock who spent the last 2 years hiding from her constituents. |

Yep. Saw the signs near Clifton for Comstock the other day. Lots of people with horse farms that want to sell their houses for Langley prices that went for Comstock. |

You obviously don't live here. The toll is just for the hot lanes. The hot lanes are for people who want to take the toll to avoid traffic. It's not mandatory-- it's a fee based system on demand. You don't need to pay it to get onto 66. It's like a luxury tax- that millenials are the ones that usually pay. Most of the fees that are collected are from the state. That's why people drive old cars here-- to avoid paying the fees. There are other people buy their cars in MD and keep them registered their while living here for the schools, of which we are willing to pay higher taxes for until.... We can move out and not pay those taxes. PP: now that it's been explained to you, let's consider a few things. If you live in VA: NOVA pays the majority of state taxes, some of which you partake in. You should actually be hoping for more taxes, because really, it's not going to effect you much unless you make over 100k a year, which is the poverty rate in FFX. Which we willingly pay for because we would rather the world be a better place than a selfish place. There are some things more important in the world than taxes. |

It's the votes of the people who don't have signs in their yards that matter the most. There are more of us, even if we don't have billboard-size signs that look like they belong on an interstate in front of our houses (the Comstock approach). |

It is actually a loss of privilege that you are lamenting. |
