Today, at the urging of many Virginia conservative activists and grassroots leaders from across the Commonwealth, and hopeful for the support of thousands of like-minded grassroots conservatives who believe we need a party run by and for conservatives, I have made the decision to run for RPV State Party Chairman. My bottom line? We need a Republican […]

I was invited by Senator Bell’s campaign to attend the Chesterfield Nottobenamed/Reagan Dinner. It was a nice presentation with a great speech from Jim Kuhn, who worked for my hero from 1976 through the end of his second term (I am surprised I did not mob him like a rock star!) who wrote this book: […]

It looks like the heroes of my youth are fading off into the sunset. But the ideas of Ronald Reagan, Pope John Paul II and Margaret Thatcher will endure forever. I could hardly improve upon the thousands of columns on the late PM but I honoured Baroness Thatcher by listening to this speech which could […]

Another Virginia Congressman has turned his back on the Conservatives who put him into office. Congressman Scott Rigell is now the latest to justify expanding government through tax increases. And he has even adopted the Progressive’s “code word” for tax hikes calling them “revenue enhancements” to blur the truth. Rigell’s approach is to take away deductions […]

Insanity is doing the same thing over again and expecting different results. And by that definition Republicans have suffered from insanity for the past two election cycles. John McCain was a horribly liberal candidate and Barack Obama handed him his head on a platter by being the bold colors to McCain’s pastel shades of Liberalism. […]

In an editorial today, The Wall Street Journal editors takes a top Senate Democrat to task for a speech staking out a position that would sink tax reform efforts. They write, “The polls say voters want more bipartisanship, and one possibility in 2013 is tax reform that trades lower rates for fewer loopholes. Well, so much for that. […]

It seems that Obama is now lifting speeches from fellow failed president Jimmy Carter. Keep in mind as you watch this video that Tim Kaine supports Obama 100%. (Kaine even resembles Jimmy Carter a bit, don’t you think?) This short video shows Carter and Obama giving the same speech. Stunning. Absolutely stunning. And keep in mind that […]

Last night was a pretty big night for Republican Presidential hopeful Mitt Romney. He won the Illinois Primary by a pretty good margin. It seems that Republicans are coming to grips with a Mitt Romney candidacy. Many are still reluctant to “settle” for a New England Moderate. Not that Romney is light years better than […]

There is a very thoughtful article right here in the UK Independent from Yasman Alibhai-Brown on the idea of a “centre” at Oxford University named after former PM Margaret Thatcher.

Today, December 26, 2011 is the 20th anniversary of the greatest miracle of the century: The dissolution of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. The USSR was truly, as Ronald Reagan once put it, the evil empire. The dissolution of this tyrannical state was truly a miracle from God. There is no other response from […]
