They say that a day in politics is like a year. Often times, we forget what happened yesterday. Mired in the confusion and captured by the kerfluffles of the moment, we treat each instance in politics as if it existed in a vacuum, oblivious to the long logical chain of events which led to the […]

At some point in October of 2015, the Obama Administration will ask for yet another Debt Ceiling increase under threats of some inevitable apocalyptic federal default on the national debt. Obviously, we’ve been here before; and I think we all know what John Boehner, Mitch McConnell and President Obama intend to do. President Obama will […]

[yop_poll id=”4″] Local and State politics are utterly different animals from national politics, primarily due to the fact that local and state politics have a much more palpable and immediate effect on our lives. There are a number of Republican Primaries taking place across the great State of Virginia next week, and I wonder, what […]

In Response to our Nations’ national anti-holiday, April 15th, it would appear that the over-taxed bloggers of Virginia are indeed interested in tax reform. We’re not the only ones. The debate between a flat income tax and a steady national sales tax is a debate worth having, since either option is better than the catastrophic […]

Imagine, the rise of a religious movement independent from any single national government or collection of governments, raising armies and waging wars in an attempt to conquer and defeat all other societies, philosophies, and cultures. That’s not hard to imagine, because that is precisely what we are witnessing across the globe today. Furthermore, imagine that […]

Two-Thirds of the federal budget is dictated by law and is considered mandatory spending. If the United States Congress passes a law stating that a benefit is to be given to individuals in a particular circumstance, then the cost of that law, in terms of the cost of benefits, is whatever it is, without oversight […]

As I semi-boycott the VBA debate on the grounds my fellow lawyers refused to admit the candidate whom over 145,000 voters thought worthy to occupy the governor’s chair, Robert Sarvis, I thought I’d give Ed Gillespie some free advice. There is only one way to win this election. The latest poll shows the incumbent with […]

Compromise. We hate this word. We hate this word because it reminds us of all the liberty we’ve compromised away. However, to build a coalition capable of competing with the Democrat Party, we are going to have to compromise. The idea that Christian Conservatives and Libertarians can coexist within a party without looking the other […]

While I am exhausted, and like many of you hardly slept a wink last night, I have poured over the countless articles declaring the reasons for Dr. Brats victory and Eric Cantor’s loss.
