Democrats Prepare to Switch Roles With Bush/McCain in Virginia Governor’s Race
Bob McDonnell, Republican candidate for Virginia Governor.
A funny thing is happening in Virginia as Obama continues his downward spiral to reality. The governor who’s only real accomplishment has been forcing Obama on us is about to be replaced…It’s election year. In short, eight years of Democratic rule have steered Virginia into a ditch. For those who don’t know the back story, Virginia is a traditional bible belt Republican stronghold. Eight years ago, however, a Democrat was elected governor; no doubt because his last name Warner is the same as the long serving Republican Senator of the same name. Then four years ago, current governor Tim Kaine upset the favored Republican Jerry Kilgore. The last eight years in Virginia have seen Warner start by breaking his promise to keep the Republican governor’s plan to phase out the car tax. Democrats took over with a surplus, and have spent the last 8 years spending money even though they had quickly turned the surplus into a deficit during Warner’s term. Governor Kaine continued the same wasteful government and then even attempted to create a bunch of new fees and taxes in order to pay for transportation that has been neglected during Democratic rule. Thank God for the Judicial branch and its power to decide things like private taxing authorities are unconstitutional. So now we sit here with traffic nearing Washington DC levels and a governor who hasn’t noticed that if you stop spending on social programs you can afford to fix roads.
Virginia Governor Tim Kaine added to his list of blunders as governor by signing a ban on smoking. If you’re not from the south, you don’t understand the gravity of the situation so I’ll clarify. A governor in a tobacco producing state, who’s state capital is home to big tobacco, signs a bill banning smoking. This is another example of Democrats believing they know whats best for us more than we do and circumventing our rights. I don’t smoke, but I’ll be sure to go to a local bar when the law becomes active and light up a cigar and let it burn. To be fair, the ban doesn’t really ban smoking outright, but rather bans it in restaurants, bars, bowling alleys and clubs, unless restricted to a closed off area with seperate ventillation. Mrs. Governor smiled as he signed the bill. I guess he thinks restaurants and bowling alley’s can afford to build plexiglass enclosures, but really…when you are waiting for your turn to bowl, will you really be able to step into the cubicle, sip on your drink and take a drag. Silly governor.
The people with money are speaking and for them, socialism just doesn’t cut it. Has anyone noticed how much farther the stock market has fallen since the election. I think this is a sign that people with money are balking at the president with his “Robin Hood” principles where he robs the rich to give to the hood. I can’t blame them. My principles won’t let me get angry at anyone for having money because I know that they either (A) worked hard to get it, (B) inherited it from someone who worked hard to get it, or (C) were extremely lucky to get it. In either way, I don’t get angry or jealous for anyone for having or wasting money. I just get angry at myself for not having found a way to earn my personal fortune by now.
