VA Senate Debate As 2012 Opener

by Smitty There hasn’t been a GOP primary yet, but former VA Senator Allen is already mixing it up with that ex-Governor who was such a potent DNC chair that his replacement by Debbie Wasserman-Schultz was something like a vast improvement. *snort* Via Roll Call, we have some details: The first sharp elbow was thrown […]

God Bless You, Mary Zenecki!

News from Virginia via Quinton Report: A skeleton, dressed as Santa Claus, nailed to a cross, was torn down by an enraged woman outside of the Loudoun County Courthouse. The display was legally there, with the consent of the county, officials said. Mary Zenecki, a county resident, wasn’t having it. She, piece by piece and […]

‘Gentleman’ Jim Moran, Civil Servant

by Smitty That is, for ‘Civil’ means ‘Selfish’, along with ‘Overlord’ values of ‘Servant’. Remember when your retirement investments did a face plant during the 2008 election season? Here is a brief tidbit from Throw Them All Out by Peter Schweizer. Chapter 2. Crisis For All, Opportunity For Some (emphasis original) On Tuesday, September 16, 2008, […]

by Smitty Via email from Patrick Murray, Peter Schweizer drops the dime on ‘Gentleman’ Jim, the large-looming lickspittle at 3:10                                      90. Trades. In. A. Day?

by Smitty Myra Adams seems to be leaning just a little far forward with this post: “A Romney/McDonnell 2012 Presidential Ticket Is (Practically) a Done Deal” Governor McDonnell took a well-deserved victory lap this past week after helping the Republican Party of Virginia win control of both the Virginia General Assembly and Virginia Senate. This […]

Patrick Murray Delivers The Best News I’ve Had All Week

by Smitty As hoped, Patrick Murray rides again, in the effort to Retire ‘Gentleman’ Jim Moran. From his 10 November email announcement: Today I’m announcing my candidacy for US Congress in the 8th Congressional District of Virginia. This decision to run for a second time took much soul-searching, thought and prayer. Campaigns are a crucible, […]

GOP May Gain Control Of VA Senate. Also, InstaVision Offers A Sarah Palin Tease UPDATE: A Sarah Palin ‘Vacuum’?

by Smitty Jason Kenney at Bearing Drift reports that canvassing is done in Spotsylvania for the 17th Senatorial District, with a 226 vote margin for the GOP hopeful. This is good news, and will hopefully lead to results substantial enough to reach the misguided voters in Ohio. Speaking of misguided, voters in my VA Senatorial […]

This Blog Has Been Critical Of Senator Webb In The Past

by Smitty Via Instapundit, there are indications of Fightin’ Jim Webb coming out swinging against the Obama administration in Politico (our Bible).  Now, as a Virginia resident, the 2006 ‘macaca’ scandal was a major indicator to me of just how decayed American politics had become. After reading Liberal Fascism, it was highly unclear how anybody with […]
