Virginia News Headlines: Friday Morning

Here are a few Virginia news headlines, political and otherwise, for Friday, July 20. Oh, and check out the video of John McCain condemning the McCarthyite, bigoted attacks by members of his own party on a patriotic, dedicated, loyal Muslim American. Like many others, I stand with Huma Abedin, and everyone else who's the target of despicable bigotry like Michele Bachmann's (and other crazy/bigoted Teapublicans) towards Huma.
