I was there tonight to finally see Libertarian candidate for Governor Robert Sarvis speak – at the King William TP meeting at the KW Government Center. Sarvis is impressive. He actually has a bit of charisma; is very smart and knows why he wants to be governor. He mentioned a law – the Certificate of […]

People might laugh at this idea, but there are at least three good solid reasons why the Tea Party (I am a member of my local Tea Party group – the Mechanicsville Tea Party!) should support the initiative that Senator Chap Petersen has introduced on the Appellate Defender’s (more details here!) office: 1. The Tea […]

I have it on fairly good authority that the Governor’s office keeps up with this and other political blogs so let’s use that for this purpose: I encourage Governor McDonnell to sign the HB1160. Send a message. Virginia will not cooperate with unconstitutional indefinite detention without legal counsel. I believe Governor McDonnell will do the […]

This was not an unexpected result from the 3 judge panel. They were all liberals and I have already written about the predicament they find themselves in. A ruling in favor of ObamaCare and Cuccinelli gets to decide the next venue for appeal: The full court, or the Supremes. The justices were smart and avoided […]

I predicted a victory in the 11th Circuit for the 26 States lining up against Obamacare and in the 4th Circuit Court where a verdict is expected any day. Both of these 3 judge panels were stacked “randomly” with more judges appointed by Democrats then by Republicans. At first blush, the “fix” would appear to […]

RICHMOND (August 12, 2011) – Statement of Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli: “I am pleased that the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals found the individual insurance mandate and penalty unconstitutional. The court determined that the power to force one citizen to purchase a good or service from another is outside the established outer limits of […]

In case you had not seen today’s issue of the Cuccinelli Compass, the text is enclosed below. I really don’t give this appeal much of a chance as the “random” selection of the three judges somehow managed to stack the deck for the Federal Government with 2 Obama appointees and 1 Clinton appointed judge. There […]

RICHMOND (September 23, 2010) – Statement of Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli on the execution of Teresa Lewis: “Tonight, the death sentence of Teresa Lewis was carried out by the Commonwealth of Virginia for the murders-for-hire which Lewis committed against Julian Lewis and C.J. Lewis in Pittsylvania County. After Lewis failed in her first attempt to […]

The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the ruling of a Federal Judge last month that the moratorium on offshore drilling imposed by Obama is illegal. One supposes the president will continue to illegally continue to decimate the Gulf Coast economy by issuing another illegal ban on drilling, or perhaps take the Supreme Court. Unfortunately […]

A lot of liberals are chanting the mantra “US Laws supersede State Laws”. Really? Tell that to the states that have Medical Marijuana Laws – one being considered right here in River City. And decriminalization as well. The state laws in California have allowed medical pot for quite some time, though not all agreed with […]
