Did you Violate Your Principles or Just Not Read the Bill?

Posted In: Local Politics

Dave Nutter may have had a change of heart since 2007 on gas increases. But in HB3202, he voted to increase gas taxes in that bill.

Roanoke County failed in their duty Tuesday night. I need to read the final ordinance before I provide a full report. As I stated yesterday, I was in Rockbridge county doing an ICLEI presentation. The Rockbridge Tea Party is one fabulous organization and I was surely blessed to spend some time with them Tuesday night. […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Sorry for the lack of recent posts, but I have been pulled in a number of directions this week from work and church. Watching the debacle that is the Solyndra Debacle. Green jobs.

Posted In: Local Politics

I am back from a couple of days off from the Tea Party fight. And I had a pleasant surprise in my inbox as one of our most active members, Terry Franklin, wrote this wonderful post for the site.

Important Updates And Brandon Bell’s Facebook Follies

Posted In: Local Politics, Roanoke Tea Party Posts, State Politics

Based on the reports I received last night, it seems we had another good showing of speakers at the BOS meeting. I remain optimistic that the constant pressure and logical reasoned arguments we continue to make to the Board will eventually lead to the Board severing ties with ICLEI. We will be back in 2 […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
