FIRST IN PLAYBOOK — Sen. J.D. Vance (R-Ohio) bought a new home earlier this year in a close-in Alexandria neighborhood, a person familiar with the matter told Daniel Lippman. The purchase, for more than $1.5 million, has some neighbors in the liberal enclave scratching their heads about why the conservative senator who ran against the Washington establishment would choose to live among them. One neighbor described the area to our Katy O’Donnell as “filled with Pride flags and Kindness posters” and noted that Vance was recently welcomed to the neighborhood with a “yarn bombing” — according to a photo shared with Playbook, rainbow knitting now covers a signpost near the residence. A spokesperson for the senator declined to comment.

*chuckle*

Sorry to digress, but it immediately starts running through my head:

Vance can't dance, but he steal your money...
 
Most liberals love to virtue signal their love, tolerance and acceptance of the misfits. But, only if you are their kind of misfit.
 
I don't blame Vance at all. Alexandria is to DC what Windsor, Ont. is to Detroit. Well kept and safe to walk the streets and with a hell of a lot more money. Whenever I was in DC on biz. I always stayed in Alexandria Old Town.

As for the residence, whole slew of wealthy white liberals having a competition as to who could out virtue signal who. It was their form of 'keeping up with the Jones's'. Tying in with another thread, in the morning the denizens would be lining up around the block waiting for the Starbucks on King St. to open.

To the surprise of no one here, Hillbilly Johnny stands up tall for the author of Hillbilly Elegy.
 
To the surprise of no one here, RobTheFattieRacistDownSouth, takes a break from his thread about underage sex just to troll me.

I'm honored.
 
I think it's great that the "tolerant libs" resorted to midnight vandalism in their desire to "welcome" their new neighbors to the neighborhood.

Yet somehow in their minds it's the conservatives who are the ones who spew hate and intolerance...
 
I can’t decide which is more farcical: J.D Vance moving into a liberal hell hole; or the PB’s resident RWCJ “members” getting all snowflake-y over the “yarn bombing”.

👉 RWCJ “members” 🤣

Midnight vandalism?

Dudley, your snowflake histrionics are laughable.

And this is different from the ultracons, how? Other than who they accept and tolerate there isn't any. Blaming someone for pissing in your boot while you're pissing in their shoe.

Comshaw

"Fattie"? Did you REALLY go there, Hillbilly Johnny?

I haven't been overweight since 2012 (lost weight and kept it off over a decade), hell, even Vetteman and Que abandoned the "Rob is FAT!" memes almost a decade ago.

You really need some new material, you inbred mouth breathing knuckle dragger.

This post sez in a nut shell eggzachery how I feel about the right and the left. I would not piss on either if they were on fire.
 
I think the "liberal neighborhood" call is overblown. A whole lot of well-healed Republicans live in Alexandria too. When I first came to Washington after the university, I lived in Park Fairfax, in Alexandria. Two doors down from me was where the Nixons lived when they first came to Washington.

yours is a defeatist's position. i get your point but you're stuck with those 2 for the foreseeable future so enjoy the remainder of your years. 🤣

But no, a defeatist is one who accepts the trash they are given.
 
Alexandria is the Orange County of northern Virginia. Used to be synonymous with conservative. Then they were replaced and it is now a bastion of liberal elitists.
Interesting that liberals complain about people moving into a neighborhood. When crime rose in my neighborhood after Section 8ers came in, we were told not to mention that fact, ever, by local officials. Cops shrugged at complaints. We left.
People in Alexandria can leave too. They won't, but they can.
