“Once a government is committed to the principle of silencing the voice of opposition, it has only one way to go; and that is down the path of increasingly repressive measures, until it becomes a source of terror to all its citizens and creates a country where everyone lives in fear.” Harry S. Truman
The man we elected and placed in the White House doesn’t like our country, our religion, our Constitution, or our way of life.
He believes we’re arrogant, stupid, and greedy, so his plan is to change America into a socialistic state like they have in Western Europe.
For Marxism to succeed, Capitalism must fail completely. It says so in the Communist Manifesto.

 O'Connor VIRGINIA BEACH - - Listen to what the bureaucrats call fiscal irresponsibility and government mismanagement: "a long term structural imbalance."
Simple bureaucrat bulls--t, for 'Hey, Houston, we have a problem!'
More simply stated the city is spending more than it is taking in without a massive tax or fee increase.
Bob O'Connor, VNS's city government blogger has started a series of articles: State of the City - Finances. He'll tell you what your elected officials and city staffers won't. Read his Virginia Beach Taxpayers Blog - Behind the 8-Ball Again!

 A few facts you need to know before jumping aboard the Black Hole Express...
1. The contract between Hampton Roads Transit (HRT) and the Federal Transportation Administration had many checks and balances in place that Virginia Beach City Council members Jim Wood (chairman of the HRT Commission) and John Uhrin should have known if they would have just sat down and read the agreement and then exercised some management skills.
Highlights
(a) The Government has no obligation to provide any financial assistance for the Project beyond the Maximum Federal New Starts Financial Contribution ($127,980,000). Note: The project is midway in its completion, and is already $108,000,000 over budget.
(b) If the total Federal funding provided under Section 8 of this agreement, “Limitations of Federal Funding Commitment,” is insufficient to undertake revenue operation of the Project and the subsequent activities necessary to Complete the Project, the Grantee (HRT) agrees to Complete the Project and accepts sole responsibility for the payment of any additional costs (overruns).
(c) If at any time during its efforts to Complete the Project the Grantee (HRT) determines that the total project cost will exceed the Baseline Cost Estimate, the Grantee must immediately notify the Government of the amount of the difference and the reasons for the difference. (There is no evidence this has been done in a timely fashion).

GOP crowd gets more crowded with another candidate |

 Smith
Originally Smith was the first (and only for sometime) candidate on the track. Then others started tossing their hats in the ring later: Scott Taylor, Ben Loyola, Scott Rigell, Kenny Golden (Smith's successor as city chairman) , Bert Mizusawa, Ed Maulback.
Smith withdrew, leaving the battle to the 6 others. But now he's poised to announce this coming week that he's rejoining the chase.
A man with solid conservative credentials, Smith is a retired Marine/Navy JAG officer. And he was the first black to hold a GOP local chairmanship in the state.
The national party establishment has united behind Rigell, however, a well known Tidewater auto dealer, but Loyola and Mizusawa have not been discounted completely as having potential to win the June 8 primary nomination.

Get out the 4-Wheelers - political mud coming! |

Wally Erb blogs that 2nd District GOP congressional candidate Scott Rigell has kicked off negative campaign with a bit of mud-slinging.
Wally writes: "I guess it was too much to ask. Unlike Governor Bob McDonnell’s campaign that spoke to issues and had nothing but respected for his opposition, Rigell, a political neophyte, has come out slinging mud."

Quotes of the Day
| QUOTES OF THE DAY |
"Harmony, liberal intercourse with all Nations, are recommended by policy, humanity and interest. But even our Commercial policy should hold an equal and impartial hand: neither seeking nor granting exclusive favours or preferences; consulting the natural course of things; diffusing and diversifying by gentle means the streams of Commerce, but forcing nothing; establishing with Powers so disposed; in order to give trade a stable course."
- George Washington, Farewell Address, 1796 -
|
"First in war, first in peace, and first in the hearts of his countrymen, he was second to none in humble and enduring scenes of private life. Pious, just humane, temperate, and sincere; uniform dignified, and commanding; his example was as edifying to all around him as were the effects of that example lasting; correct throughout, vice shuddered in his presence and virtue always felt his fostering hand. The purity of his private charter gave effulgence to his public virtues."
- John Marshall, official eulogy of George Washington, delivered by Richard Henry Lee, 1799 -
|
"The prosperity of commerce is now perceived and acknowledged by all enlightened statesmen to be the most useful as well as the most productive source of national wealth, and has accordingly become a primary object of its political cares."
- Alexander Hamilton, Federalist No. 12 -

"It is very imprudent to deprive America of any of her privileges. If her commerce and friendship are of any importance to you, they are to be had on no other terms than leaving her in the full enjoyment of her rights."
- Benjamin Franklin, Political Observances -
