that I’ve been leaving politics alone recently.
It makes me an angry person when I pay attention to what is happening and I think I’ll be a happier person to just ignore the next 3 years.

[...]Obama has just declared that we’re going to go bankrupt if we don’t pass a health care bill. Pelosi has just declared we’re not going to have a bill until after the new year. The Treasury Dept. has just said that we have gone passed the debt ceiling allowed by [...]
I know it’s a long way off, but I’m ready to give out endorsements in this race.
Obviously, I adore Carolyn and thinks she’s done a wonderful job. Go Carolyn!
I am currently in negotiations with Ted Byrd on a roof…so go Ted!
Charlie, I love you and you know that, and I [...]
As you know, the Republitarian doesn’t do much sappy, graveling, lovey-dovey, mumbo-jumbo. This year’s video finalists were, “I Like Big Butts” by Sir Mix Alot, “Good Hearted Woman”, by Waylon Jennings, “Outlaw Women”, by Hank Jr., and “Without You” by Motley Crue…..but the winner was:
Happy 14th anniversary darling!

RITUAL INTENTION: “As we cross the threshold of the returning light, we revitalize our connection to the earth and each other.”
THINGS TO BRING: Drums or acoustic instruments, something to sit on, a journal and pen if you’d like to record insights from trance, and any other [...]
Driving through town I noticed several commercial buildings with new metal roofs. The problem is that screws can be seen all over the top side, which is “old school”. A metal roof from ShowBros. is engineered with no screws showing on the top side. This includes ridge cap, on hips, [...]
I’m really disappointed that Tiger is taking time off from golf to attend to his family problems.
He’s already apologized and his wife should get over it already. Tiger is in the midst of setting all types of records and his assault on the record books should not be put [...]
Cop cars were everywhere……
[...]Barack vowed that he would retire Hillary’s campaign debt….
$6 million in stimulus went to Hillary’s pollster…
It is becoming transparent that Barack is a hack….
[...]Harry Reid compares those who are dragging their feet on health care to those who drug their feet on civil rights legislation. Problem is, it was the republicans who passed civil rights legislation, while democrats, like Robert “KKK” Byrd, drug their feet….
Seems like a disingenuous comparison….
[...]Mike London, new head football coach for UVA, will be paid 1.7 million dollars a year for the next five years…plus the 8-9 million it will take to buy out Al Grogh. Mike will “teach” football to about 50 kids a year, with very few actually going on to play [...]
Cries of “we have no money” from the state ring hollow when I drive by the old Harrisonburg High School and see a gross, frivolous use of tax payer money for ball fields. Say what you want about stimulating the economy, but those fields will never produce anything of value [...]
Our biggest challenge to expanding the roofing business is how to take on new employees to handle the workload, be competitive, and still turn enough profit. We are extremely concerned with rising tax liabilities and how this healthcare bill may affect employees.
We will think long and hard about how we [...]
You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.
You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.
You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.
You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down.
You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred.

Everyone loves a good fundraiser…..
I guess I don’t understand why we spend money on a product or service, and give a small percentage to those we a trying to raise money for.
If you know someone could use some financial help, just cut them a check so they get 100% of [...]
Looking back on it, I have to admit that I put the farm first on many occasions where I shouldn’t have. Due to the circumstances, I now realize I have became almost enslaved by a bunch of stupid cows to the point that I am having trouble at certain times [...]
One of the best Valley blogs over the last several years doesn’t update frequently and it’s a shame.
I always looked forward to reading Crocktown…even when I was the subject material.
That was Jeremy’s thing……
[...]You always hope when a new leader is elected that they will be successful at governing the people for the betterment of all. I think it’s safe to say that Obama has been a complete joke so far and seems intent on making sure his countrymen see less freedom.
Can you [...]
According to the WaPo, Tim Kaine blames Creigh’s loss on the fact that he distanced himself from the president and his policies.
The real reason he lost was because he couldn’t get enough distance…..
[...]I just saw Frank Wilt’s picture on Facebook.
It looks like a cross between Dracula and Elton John!
[...]Matthew 7:21-23
21″Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter.
22″Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your [...]
Many of the arguments used against smoking and drinking, such as health and addiction, apply equally to overeating. Many believers would not even consider having a glass of wine or smoking a cigarette but have no qualms about gorging themselves at the dinner table.
Proverbs 23:20-21 warns us, “Do not [...]
It’s easy to identify other sins because most of them are outward acts. I don’t think I have ever heard someone in church confess the sin of covetousness and I think most people would consider it childish and unnecessary. Covetousness is a sin of the heart and can be destructive [...]
It is very difficult to go about your business in today’s world without seeing some sort of “soft-porn” on TV or newstand “literature”. It seems to be everywhere and it can easily ensnare you by the constant barrage and the casual attitude taken to it by others.
I can vividly remember [...]
There is a really “funny” moment during the routine. Can you pick out the moment?
[...]"You can move out this weekend!" and "If you and your neighbors don't like it here you can just move!" exclamations heard on the Boulevard by my landlord on the afternoon of September 24, 2008. What could possibly compel a landlord that receives rent on time every month from a' [...]
Over the years I’ve noticed that people who want to justify not going to church, or rationalize their own sinful behavior scream, “hypocrite”, at those who are trying to live lives that are pleasing to God.
They often point to the pharisees, who Jesus often chided for their adherence to man [...]
The election is over and it is time to move on.
We will be having a short devotional every day in order to enhance the spiritual lives of all the readers who love Jesus.
[...]I woke up this morning and somehow starting singing this and cannot stop…..
[...]Everyone I talk to that is politically inclined around here say that Kai has his sights set higher than mayor. Well, he’s not going to be the delegate or state senator….so I guess he’ll have to move.
On a related note….I asked someone at First Fridays who was looking to run [...]
Everyone who has read this blog over the last 6 years knows that Matt and I have not agreed on too many things and because of that I have never supported his campaigns or even voted for him.
George Allen’s comment on Matt’s “wholesomeness” yesterday really hit a nerve with me. [...]
Highlights of the afternoon:
Wearing John Elledge’s pretty blue “lawyer” scarf. (I have pictures.)
Hearing Matt Lohr be called the “Essence of Wholesomeness”…..new type of perfume possibly?
Hearing small gasps as Chaz tells everyone that “Myron Rhodes will be leading us in the invocation”.
And a special thanks to Senator Obenshain for picking up [...]
Mike Meredith and Lowell Fulk are leaving their county chairmanships of their respective parties. Regardless of who you like and don’t like, both have done a good job.
Both Mike and Lowell have put a ton of resources and time into being chair and doing a lot of the behind the [...]
The republicans did not win because people are thrilled with them. They won because they are the alternative. Electoral politics is nothing but a vicious cycle where the party out of power is only voted back in when people begin to fear the party in power. Tim Kaine’s assertion that [...]
Today is election day in Virginia and New Jersey. I urge our friends who receive this e-mail to vote today for the Republican tickets in those two states. The Patriots Committee is dedicated to fiscal responsibility. We are always ready to offer bi-partisan support for candidates who subscribe to those [...]
then they will spend the next year jamming through socialist legislation before they lose even bigger in 2010.
[...]made me wonder when Gene’s endorsements are coming.
The only endorsements left available are Dave Weins, Richard Baugh, Kai Degner, and fellow former democratic mayors, Joe Fitzgerald, and Larry Rodgers.
