Delegate Bob Marshall has asked Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli (and the Republican Gubernatorial Candidate-in-Waiting) for a legal opinion on the massive tax increase bill pushed by Bob McDonnell and masquerading as a Transportation Bill (43% goes to grow government) as well as McDonnell’s plan to advance ObamaCare in the Commonwealth. BOTH ARE UNCONSTITUTIONAL according […]

Wow. They call this monstrosity of a tax increase – $6.1 billion – the “Transportation Bill”. But only 57% is supposed to go to transportation. And we all know how “secure” that spending will be. There is no lock box. So as Bob McDonnell sends email after email trying to convince people that bigger government […]

As we have previously noted, Governor McDonnell has moved firmly into the RINO Camp proposing a 16% Sales Tax Increase for Virginia to pay for more roads. (What is it with these pretend Conservative politicians?) And while the abrupt left turn for McDonnell is sure to ingratiate him in the eyes of Progressives (although Progressives would rather see […]

This one is a bit curious. PolitiFact, the Democrat’s pretend version of truth analysis has ranked a campaign promise by Governor Bob McDonnell as “Stalled” despite the fact that McDonnell is only midway through the 4 legislative sessions that will occur during his Governorship. You would think there were more important things to “debunk” these days. […]

Politifact has published their verdict of Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell’s campaign promise to establish an entity to oversee ethics issues and violations and concluded that McDonnell has broken that promise. So when it comes to policing state government, McDonnell has opted for an inspector general’s office instead of an ethics commission. Then governor’s office said […]

While ‘Democratic’ Senatorial Candidate Timmy Kaine pushes for more and more Obama change as the number one cheer-girl for the Neo-Marxist in the White House, America just ain’t into the change Obama has wreaked on brought to our shores. A new poll shows that most Americans believe Barack Obama has upheld his campaign promise to change America, 56% say that […]

Rick Santorum had his biggest night last night picking up wins in Colorado, Minnesota and Missouri. While doing little to actually pick up delegates, the victory shows that Conservatives – particularly in the Heartland – are not fans of Mitt Romney’s brand of liberal politics. Squishy Republicans are not the answer for many Conservatives. Another […]

Last evening, President Obama announced a framework for an agreement with Republican Congressional negotiators on preventing tax increases next year. What’s striking about this agreement, though, is how far Obama moved toward the Republican position and how much frustration this has generated among liberal Democrats. The Wall Street Journal outlines the deal. “President Barack Obama […]

The newly elected Republican House Majority will not take over until January, but already we are getting a glimpse of what changes they have in mind. So far I like what I am seeing and it appears the republicans are going to be the ones to keep President Obama’s campaign promise of transparency. Today, Rep. […]
