I went to the Buddy Fowler Victory Party in Ashland Tuesday evening with excitement (It was looking good the Del. Fowler) but also trepidation. Gecker was ahead – was it 3000 or 40o0 votes? Powhatan was out but how many votes can that be? Will it be enough? I knew little about the Hal Parrish […]

I have mentioned this before. I stopped taking the Times Dispatch years ago because it is a left leaning rag that has become yet another media outlet controlled by the left. And nowhere is this more obvious than on the Editorial Page. Gone are the days when that page was filled with the voice of […]

When I was 14 I began working summer jobs and after school jobs when I could find them. I enjoyed having my own money and making my own decisions on how to spend it. One of the expenditures I found to be an absolute necessity was a daily subscription to the Richmond Times Dispatch and […]

The Richmond Times Dispatch article I cited in this blog entry had the stark financial tally of the three candidates: Cuccinelli has raised nearly $7 million; McAuliffe more than $12 million. Sarvis has raised $39,000, all from private donors, since his campaign launch. “We have been able to raise what we have needed so far,” […]

It is not often that the candidate who does not debate is touted favorably in a post debate editorial but that is what happened in the Richmond Times-Dispatch today. Here’s the editorial and here’s the paragraph I found intriguing: We said at the beginning that the biggest winners were not at the Omni Homestead Resort. […]

The intolerance towards Christians in this country has reached an all time high. Liberals blast Christians at every opportunity, calling us “intolerant”. The truth is, most Christians are very tolerant. When you find us most intolerant is when you demand that we compromise or abandon our beliefs and the teachings of God to accommodate some […]

It looks like the Richmond Times-Dispatch weighing in on Obama’s efforts to gut welfare reform signed into law by former President Bill Clinton caught the eye of the Mitt Romney team. While Obama supporters are trying to deny the facts and do their usual “out of context” spin and lies, Mitt Romney is telling the […]

This is a pretty sad turn of events.

The following is a message from Virginia State Senator Obenshain on the Voter ID Bill. An ongoing Virginia State Police investigation has resulted in charges against thirty-eight people for voter fraud, to which opponents of modest voter identification requirements-opponents who repeatedly insisted that voter fraud does not exist-responded, essentially, “Oh, that voter fraud.” And then […]

I was ambling through the Richmond Times-Dispatch not looking for anything in particular when I discovered this headline: CITIES ACT TOGETHER TO ATTACK CLIMATE CHANGE under a heading of “Global collaboration”.
