krauseYou should do an expose on (Beach City Councilman and the Beach's representatives on the Hampton Roads Transportation Board) Jim Wood.  He has no idea what he should be doing. 

His background is having been a policeman and then working for his mother's construction company!
And he sits on the board of HRT??  That means I can do brain surgery!
Jimmy has no idea of his responsibilities of being on such a board.  He should be sued for his poor performance.

The general assembly should appoint business people to the board and leave off people like Jimmy!

Give me a break.
Such stupidity is why I moved out of town.  The public is lazy and stupid, caring nothing about whom they elect to office or how they perform in office.

Glenn Davis laughing matter

In my opinion/observation Glenn Davis is a puppet for the Business Lobby ... and so too is Dennis Free.

As I recall, both are supporters of light rail and big government. Both support Crony Capitalism.  It appears to me that the two of them believe 'Crony Capitalism' to be an appropriate use of government powers and the people's tax funds.

Both support "Regionalism".  From where I sit, Red Flags are raised and clearly waving for all to see - if voters pay attention.

The "We, The People" grassroots taxpayers stuck paying for all this "government-controlled-by-business-lobby-fiat" spending and debt are in serious need of recruiting, fielding, and supporting alternatives on the ballot.

Stat.

Otherwise we are simply going to continue the same steady march off the cliff that the business lobby is directing behind the scenes - and the media and city government are supporting with endless propaganda.

What is especially disturbing is the realization that the Virginia Beach Republican Party leadership and back room decision-makers are SUPPORTIVE of the Crony Capitalism and Regional agenda.

Even Governor McDonnell revealed his SUPPORT with his recent REGIONALISM empowerment bill he is boosting about - as the "legacy" of his administration (HB 2313).

Glenn Davis? Seriously? That is simply unacceptable.

Frank Wagner and Ron Villanueva need to go too.

Stat.

A veteran news man like you has to have a grudging admiration for Grover Norquist and his running mates in the stealth jihad movement in the US.

Norquist, et al, have managed to exert tremendous influence in organizations like CPAC, completely under the radar of clear-thinking folks. 

Grover jumps up and down screaming about "No new taxes!" while he manages to push the agenda of organizations backed with big Saudi money. For a review of Grover's misdeeds, please go to www.muslimbrotherhoodinamerica.com.  This is Frank Gaffney's site and he has facts to back up every sneaky move that Norquist has made to diminish the US military, which is his ultimate goal.

Think about it.  You want to cut the US military so you push no new taxes, knowing that future cuts won't come out of sacred cow entitlement budgets but that they will come from the military.  It's brilliant but deadly for America.  Click here for column

Continuing my own "Redneck Jihad," I remain,
