When Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell strong armed Virginia’s lawmakers into a massive tax increase, one of the “selling points” the McDonnell Administration used to spin the financial benefits for Virginians was that the gas tax would drop by 6 cents, saving consumers a lot of money. Most of us were skeptical. Would there actually be […]

Of course the cash was said to be “loans” and […]

Those that read my posts with any regularity will know two things: I supported Bob McDonnell in his 2009 bid for governor I wouldn’t support him again if he ran for dog catcher. Governor Bob McTaxHike said all the right things in 2009. He called the last 8 years under tax and spenders Kaine and […]

In a Press Release, Governor McDonnell announced his scheme to add an additional $3.1 Billion tax burden on the backs of […]

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 […]

Politifact has come out with another example of their left wing bias with this one. First and foremost, the statement made by Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell is correct.
