I know many readers might disagree but I want to encourage all to pray that former Governor Bob McDonnell’s convictions be overturned. He might be extremely foolish but he is NOT a crook. There will be more of these prosecutions if McDonnell loses. Please join me in prayer that the Court will decide this right. […]

I just posted on the original Magnitsky Act, which was a gross meddling in the internal affairs of Russia and which named names and convicted those as human rights abusers. It violates in my view the clear provision of the US Constitution that states as follows (Article I, Section 9): No Bill of Attainder or […]

It’s great to hear my candidate, former Virginia Governor Jim Gilmore, on the video list – he got seven minutes or so on MSNBC in prime time and here it is! I am pleased with the general tone of the interview. Gilmore played to his strengths: Taxes and Foreign Policy (fighting Terrorism) and he sounded […]

This just went up on Breitbart: In one of the stranger quirks in the long arc of Western civilization, a green-tinted sheet of laminated paper— no larger than a drivers license— has done more to change the course of American history than many of the most intense debates and political upheavals that have occurred since […]

The primary reason Republicans struggle with immigration, politically, is because they are willing to compromise on the most important principle involved in the debate. We can talk about the difficulties and expense of legal immigration, the impossibility of deporting 12 million human beings, the logistical problems of dealing with illegal immigrants once they’ve crossed our […]

Due to Robert Sarvis’ supposedly controversial position on immigration and Hanover County’s recent kerfuffle over the matter, I have given a great deal of thought to the issue of immigration and am convinced that the framework of the discussion lacks a great deal of clarity and integrity. I intend to clarify the issue and offer […]
