Yesterday morning while reading the paper, I came across a letter to the editor from a Mr. Corbo. Presuming that this is the same Mr. Corbo that I know (and please pardon me if it is not), he wrote how he, as a conservative, would not be supporting or voting for John McCain in […]

With the recent announcement of Lt. Gov. Bill Bolling to run for reelection (as opposed to seeking the office of Governor), it looks as if the year 2009 will be a strong election year for Republicans in the state of Virginia. Presumably Bob McDonald will hold the first slot on the Republican side as […]
Recently, it has been reported that in Senator Hagel’s newest book, he calls for the creation of a new political party. Now I’m sure that as conservatives, we have all expressed similar thoughts, whether openly admitted or not.

Despite the rosy outlook from the Kaine administration it seems that economic reality has began to sink in.

Being born in North Carolina, the tobacco state, I know full well both sides of the debate regarding government action on smoking. I don’t smoke and I don’t particularly enjoy the aroma of cigarette smoke. However I do have a big problem with Sen. Mary Margaret’s (D-Arlington) bill that proposes a ban on […]

Conservatives beware. From the beginning, it was clear to Republicans that there was no sure fire nominee to win the White House in 2008. In fact, many were troubled with the conservative credentials of the candidates in the field. Many hoped that Fred Thompson would carry the torch of conservatism into the White House, but […]
