  3. Mr. Ali,

    With all due respect, you appear to have changed your tune quite a bit concerning pensions. Please compare what you say at the 34:00 mark in part one of the video to what you wrote back in 2006 when you were running for the House of Delegates.

    Unfortunately Mr. Ali, you sound very much like an opportunist, willing to say whatever it is that you think will get you elected.

    I look forward to hearing how you can have such different views about pensions in such a short period of time.

  4. Seems to me like saying "we're running out of money" isn't necessarily incompatible with saying teacher pensions should be improved. Mr. Ali advocates independent taxing authority for the BOE, that could be a part of helping make up the difference.
