So we are comparing Terry to “Christ” now? There is an organization called “Virginia Firefighters”, much like there is an organization called IBM. Just because you like playing on the computer, doesnt’ give you the right to claim “IBM”! GEt serious. Terry is going to sink the DEMS. He’s the only candidate that could lose to McDonnell! Wake up and smell reality. Terry is as phony as your arguments! And you aren’t helping your candidate posting your inane points online.

I think the Virginia State Firefighters Association looks dumb on this issue. Have they polled their members of the candidates? No… Do they speak for me? As a volunteer firefighter, I support McAuliffe.

They don’t own the term “Virginia Firefighters” and McAuliffe has every right to run his ad. I suggest the Past President “Grow up and stop whining.”

I see this as ‘dirty pool’. At least 16 of my teacher friends and I are working as volunteers on the Terry campaign; so I have a T-shirt that says TEACHERS SUPPORT TERRY. What’s wrong with that? NO, I have not polled all 3000 of them. As the Bible says: ‘Whenever 2 or 3 of you are gathered together in my name….” I know a large group of firefighters support Terry because I had an opportunity to speak with them when they came out for Terry the time Clinton was in town.
