I got this email from a group called Virginians for Life and Liberty: Robert Sarvis has recently broken with Libertarians on key issues* Recent interviews with Chuck Todd and Reason.com reveal: Sarvis FAVORS higher taxes, including higher gas taxes and a new “miles-driven” tax and opposing any tax cuts, including the Cuccinelli Tax Cut Plan Sarvis […]

It seems official. Barack Obama has weaponized the IRS along with the Justice Department and the EPA – to name just a few. During the 2010 State of the Union address, Obama bemoaned the Supreme Court’s decision in the Citizens United case that overturned part of the McCain-Feingold Campaign Finance Reform law. (Is it really […]

I (Sandy) have known Del. Chris Peace for sometime. In fact, even when I was not in his district, I was impressed with him very much. Delegate Peace has become a leader in the House of Delegates. He had a regular column in the Times-Dispatch. He is a movement conservative and generally votes right. He […]

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.

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. […]

Like everyone else on the right, I detest this ruling and truly hoped that it had gone the other way. But in the back of my mind, when the government made the argument that the mandate was a tax, I thought that was something worth worrying about. Of course, the argument during the legislative process […]

I was prayerfully wondering what position for the Governor to take on the sonogram bill. The Left is making distortions of a type that have incendiary potential, especially with those who get their information unfiltered from the MSM. I came up with: Take out the requirement that there be an invasive sonogram. And that is […]
