Posted In: Roanoke Tea Party Posts

The planning commission met last night to get public input on the Poor Mountain Wind Farm Boondoggle. Specifically the zoning regulations have to be changed to accommodate the wind farm. No zoning changes…no wind farm. The meeting lasted 3.5 hours. Your humble spokesperson was about to fall asleep so he left after speaking.  Sorry. Here’s the channel […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

A Tough Question for Nutter…

Posted In: Roanoke Tea Party Posts

While all of the local groups here were surprised by the entry of Dave Nutter in the 21st State Senate District Race to retire John Edwards, we think it is ultimately a good thing. It will ensure that we get the best possible opponent to fight this fight to retire John Edwards. We certainly need someone […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

We were just three tables down, so we jumped in […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Posted In: Roanoke Tea Party Posts, State Politics

I have been asked by several people why we aren’t more involved in the Edwards/Nutter race.  I usually remind people that if it hadn’t been for the Roanoke Tea Party, there may not have been a Dave Nutter campaign. Who captured a 14 minute YouTube video of John Edwards admitting he didn’t read last year’s […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
