I was curious as to what the AA(L)RP (With a nod to Rush Limbaugh, that’s the American Association of [Liberal] Retired Persons) would say about the Virginia Governor’s race and guess what? Here’s the article and here’s a highlight: Virginia voters get a choice this year between gubernatorial candidates with strongly divergent views on issues important […]

I just saw the summary of the Conservative Intel poll on the Virginia governor’s race (thanks to Hot Air for this news, too) and it is good news for the Libertarian: He’s still drawing ten percent (and about the same amount are undecided) and the analysis says two things – this first about the numbers: […]

When Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell strong armed Virginia’s lawmakers into a massive tax increase, one of the “selling points” the McDonnell Administration used to spin the financial benefits for Virginians was that the gas tax would drop by 6 cents, saving consumers a lot of money. Most of us were skeptical. Would there actually be […]

Virginia Republican Governor Bob McDonnell sent out an email today to his email distribution list. For those not following the saga, McDonnell has accepted numerous financial benefits from a supporter that include payments for his daughter’s wedding, a Rolex watch, and cash. Lots of cash. Of course the cash was said to be “loans” and […]

In terry’s own words. Talk about a war on women, this guy takes the cake. If he abandons his wife and child just when they are the most vulnerable and need him the most, what would he do as Virginia Governor? We already suffered through an Absentee Governor in Tim Kaine. Let’s not make the […]

Say it ain’t so. Apparently, my recent criticisms of Hanover Board of Supervisors Member Angela Kelly-Wiecek and her recently un-closeted Liberal Tax and Spend ways has not set well with the little lady. And I happen to know (and there are witnesses) that Kelly-Wiecek and Hanover GOP Chairman Nancy Russell and others are seeking to […]

Kansas Governor Sam Brownback delivers the weekly Republican Address. In this video he sounds a lot like Virginia Governor McDonnell early on. “We faced a huge deficit when we took office and now have a surplus – and did it all without raising taxes.” That was a statement McDonnell used many times, but can no […]

“April Fools’ Day” came early this year. Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell, a professed conservative Republican, together with the Republican-controlled House of Delegates, betrayed their loyal Republican constituents as “Fools of Deception.” In the waning hours of the legislative session they produced a transportation bill praised in the press by Democrats Tim Kaine and wannabe- governor […]

Say it ain’t so! Speculation abounds and tongues are wagging that Bill Bolling, the current Republican Lt. Governor of Virginia, bitter about Attorney General Cuccinelli’s decision to run for Governor may run as an Independent. After assuming that the Republican Nomination was all locked up after his magnanimous gesture to seek a second term as Lt. […]

Politifact has published their verdict of Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell’s campaign promise to establish an entity to oversee ethics issues and violations and concluded that McDonnell has broken that promise. So when it comes to policing state government, McDonnell has opted for an inspector general’s office instead of an ethics commission. Then governor’s office said […]

Politifact has come out with another example of their left wing bias with this one. First and foremost, the statement made by Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell is correct. The ObamaCare law does, in fact, take more the $700 Billion from MediCare and move it to ObamaCare because the president promised to not sign the bill […]
