Virginia Right!

Alachua County, FL, the home of the University of Florida, has gotten out of ICLEI, according to this report by the Gainesville TP: Apparently County Commissioner Susan Baird is a friendly voice (wonder if she was audited?): Dearest Friends of the County and the world, My greatest wish (among so many others…) is for the [...]

I get these articles from time to time (along with 30 million other people!) from Tom DeWeese.  I am legitimately concerned about smart meters and this article is disturbing.  Some aspects of this I have heard elsewhere.  The VA law to allow conscientious objection to smart meters failed in committee. The Growing Threat of Smart [...]

I heard that Cold Harbor and South Anna districts are available.  And they pay some money ($8k) and it is rumored health benefits! HERE’S my manifesto in case the Henry District position comes up for consideration: 1.  Elected School Boards:  I favor elected school boards because the present board is neither accountable nor is it [...]

It looks like Virginia Right! has a split decision on the Attorney General Candidate this year. My fellow blogger Sandy Sanders has already endorsed Rob Bell and by agreement between us if we do not agree on an endorsement, we may endorse personally, but not in the name of Virginia Right! Both Rob Bell and [...]

What are the top three worst development investments a county can make in a recession? Answer: Apartments, Apartments and Apartments. And why is that? Because they come stacked with kids, kids and more kids. Apartments are the highest density developments you can have. And the problem is, there are so many children per square foot [...]

I will be a guest on the Thomas Hayes-Morrison Show at 2pm today!  It’s an experiment and perhaps a try out!  We’ll see if I am up for the radio or as Tom White put it, “I have a face for the radio.”  Well, I probably do have a face for the radio BUT we’ll [...]

Thanks to fellow patriot Lisa Martin, I get these stories from a Google search.  They are AWESOME! First, the City Council in Fairbanks, Alaska says NO relationship or partnership with Agenda 21! The Fairbanks City Council made it clear Monday night that it wants no part of a United Nations sustainability initiative. The council voted [...]

I found two nifty articles this weekend, one in the Australian and the other courtesy of Power Line (from the UK Economist), both discussing the increasing statistical problem with so-called climate change models. I just love this title: Twenty-year hiatus in rising temperatures has climate scientists puzzled So I decided to read further:  I found [...]

This is from a special email from Tom DeWeese (Oh my the way, Tom is doing better according to that email!) and it points out three Virginians for special honor: The battle in the Virginia legislature was unlike any other I have ever witnessed. Anti-Agenda 21/property rights activists waged an incredible battle to expose and [...]

Sustainability Marxism by Tom DeWeese We’ve been saying it for years – sustainable development is really just a disguised Marxism, with its top down control of economic decisions, violation of private property rights and emphasis on Social Justice, a term, incidentally, coined by non- other than Karl Marx (so what was your first clue?). Well, [...]

Two articles, one in the WSJ and one in Style, Richmond’s urban alternative newspaper, both touching on events in Richmond, illustrates the dangers of public-private partnerships (an aspect of Agenda 21, I am told!) that I call corporate welfare.  If i were in office, I would have voted no to both. From the Wall Street [...]

I have contended for some time that ICLEI has a foreign policy.  The Constitution forbids states and local governments from conducting foreign policy goals. And as the Lord Jesus once said, “…for by thy words thou shalt be condemned.”  (Matthew 12:37 [KJV])  Here it is from ICLEI USA’s own blog!  (Michael Schmitz is the Executive [...]

The Council has spoken, the votes have been cast, and the results are in for this week’s Watcher’s Council match up. Plus ça change, plus c’est la même chose (The more things change, the more they stay the same) This week’s winner, Joshuapundit’s Adolf Hitler-Progressive Pioneer is something of a controversial problem child, and I’m [...]

Sandy, who is ON LOCATION at the Cong. Eric Cantor breakfast with Gov. Bobby Jindal (Sandy’s hero) at the Richmond Convention Center is ready to make a decision in the Attorney General’s race (Not a BLOG endorsement of course) and that person is: Delegate Rob Bell! Why Bell? Well, I met Del. Bell last year [...]

As reported masterfully by Tom White at this blog, fifty (now I understand something less than fifty thanks to the VR and patriots writing into their delegate!) GOP delegates voted for the omnibus Agenda 21 bill! I am glad to see that two of them were not Delegates Chris Peace (my delegate!) and John Cox(my [...]

Welcome to the Watcher’s Council, a blogging group consisting of some of the most incisive blogs in the ‘sphere, and the longest running group of its kind in existence. Every week, the members nominate two posts each, one written by themselves and one written by someone from outside the group for consideration by the whole [...]

After declaring Delegate Scott Lingamfelter’s bid for Lt. Governor dead as far as Virginia Right! was concerned, Lingamfelter’s office contacted me by phone and let me know that it was the Delegate’s intent to vote against the bill and they were in the process of fixing the record. It has now been corrected and Lingamfelter [...]

UPDATE: A few minutes after publishing this article, I received a call from Delegate Linghamfelter’s office. His vote was recorded as Yea in error. Lingamfelter had intended to vote against this bill and the error is in the process of being corrected on the official record. As a result of that error, we have “unscratched” [...]

Virginia House Bill 2048 stinks to high heaven. Agenda 21 – the United Nation’s plan to control land, sea and air is now well on the way to becoming law as it passed the “Conservative” House of Delegates. Consolidation of water quality programs. Moves several water quality programs currently administered by the Department of Conservation and Recreation to [...]
