Virginia News Headlines: Wednesday Morning

by: lowkell

Wed Sep 12, 2012 at 06:30:01 AM EDT


Here are a few Virginia news headlines, political and otherwise, for Wednesday, September 12. As for what's happening in Libya and Egypt right now, there's ZERO excuse for what happened there, utterly disgraceful behavior (and where were the governments' security forces?!?). Let me  be absolutely clear: the people who committed this violence - and the governments who failed to provide proper security - are fully responsible for these disgraceful, outrageous actions against innocent Americans representing OUR country. Grrrrr. (Note: I'm not clear as to who made the offensive movie, but whoever they are, they're imbeciles and haters, obviously. Not that this justifies violence, of course; that's just crazy and utterly unacceptable.)

*Cantor to debate economic issues with Powell on Oct. 1
*Editorial: This bill brought to you by Fox News ("A Virginia lawmaker has filed a bill establishing new rules for government benefits based on a news report from New Hampshire.")
