George Allen comes to Loudoun on the 13th of January.

2012-01-10T00:41:00.000-05:00

If the announcement for the fundraiser is too small... It reads Friday, Jan 13th at 7PM at 41187 Yakey Lane, Lovettsville, Va 20180. The Hosts are Lucy and Warren Robst. I have not had the pleasure of meeting the Robsts, but I'm assured by friends that they are fantastic folks. Come on out for a good cause and mingle with us all on Friday night.

Some have said that a year of building a complete vehicle is too long. It most certainly is not for the novice, I'll grant that. I had the body and outside finished before a summer was over. Like anything one undertakes...it's the little things that kill (time). The exterior dimensions (made of a wooden buck and framing) started back in 2010. As I pulled dimensions and ergonomics from that

As we leave 2011

2011-12-30T23:15:00.004-05:00

I'm proud to have stood with so many able and capable activists. We rocked Loudoun County....filled Board of Supervisor's chambers numerous times in the name of one good fight after another. I could go thru a list of you all...but inevitably, I'd miss someone who did incredible things for the movement...and so I'll refrain from referencing the particular persons. The list of great candidates

Coal-burning Power Plants recieve message from the leftists at the EPA

2011-12-21T21:09:00.001-05:00

The message? Clean up , or shut down. Seems no one over at the EPA has a very long memory. If they did, they'd remember those rolling blackouts that plagued Kalifornia after they tightened down and shut down plants.....without instituting a real plan first. Just saying. If you receive your power from one of these plants, you might want to invest in a generator.

President Obama, please put JOBS under the Christmas tree this year!

Guest post by Melody Himel Scalley ... Unless you have a high paying government job, and even if you do, you are probably well aware that the majority of American’s are deeply impacted by the ongoing devastation to the United States economy since President Obama took office. While overall the unemployment rate hovers close to 9%, minority unemployment remains consistently near 15% and

A gift, and a great one.

I attended the Loudoun County Republican Christmas Party last night with many of my good friends and aquaintances. I had another great evening discussing policy and strategies. At one point, I ran into Cara Townsend and her husband. I first met Cara in Janet Clark's office in Purcellville (seems like EVERYONE went thru there at one point or another, huh?) where she indicated that she was throwing

Bullet Proof Birthday Bash !!

2011-12-07T21:47:00.001-05:00

Hey, listen...I'm having some friends over. About 70 of them. Judy asked me last Monday what I'd want for my birthday this year. In past years, I've partied like a rockstar with Stevie Whiteman and the guys from Kix until the wee hours of the morning. We've known each other since some pretty wild times in Baltimore's Hammerjacks' club , and I jumped out of a perfectly good airplane in 2010...

Chesapeake Bay help from Loudoun?

2011-11-04T13:07:00.003-04:00

Or Socialism revisited? The Loudoun Environmental Council has covered EXACTLY what this meant to every voter out there sometime ago...and much better than I could have relayed it. The fact that Malcolm Baldwin still supports any portion with any restrictions on your property is deeply disturbing. But there he is, pushing for 60 foot buffers and more. The Farm Bureau stepped up to end this the

When supposed independents act just like liberals

2011-09-24T08:57:00.001-04:00

In a recent display of full-blown brattery, several liberal operatives renewed attacks on me at another website. Seems that my endorsement and work for Dick Black has offended them, and in true liberal form, they sent assailants to attack me instead of address the real issues. That method of attack is solidly outlined in the democrat handbook. I’ve endured a prolific hosts of name-calling, they

I've been full on in the pursuit of a new business venture these days.... and since my addition to the contributors over at Virginia Virtucon, there isn't alot of time to keep this blog updated. Most of it is just cross-posted from V V anyway. But sometimes, it comes in handy for stepping out to call it like it is.A lot of turbulance has occurred at the TooConservative blog for the last year or

Bulletproof endorsement in the Broad Run District.

2011-07-16T21:37:00.002-04:00

I’ve had some internal conflict about where to go with Shawn Williams/ Cliff Kierce Supervisor race in Broad Run.Kierce and I go back several years and both championed the Broadlands HCA Hospital in the battle battle against INOVA’s giant financed campaign against it. As of this week, I understand that Cliff has received an endorsement from Stevens and Liz Miller. Because Cliff did not wave that

HMMWV Progress is slowly progressing

2011-06-11T21:22:00.002-04:00

I've been in the middle of a work slowdown this spring. I predicted all of this before the Clown-in-Chief actually took office. He isn't dealing with a slow economy - he's making it worse- as predicted. This week, his economist team took a walk. Seems he'll be the albatross hanging around all of their necks if they had stayed.Money dried up at my clients homes as they had to decide on home

Tito endorses Verne Dickerson for Sheriff

2011-05-07T21:54:00.003-04:00

I've run into a couple of folks who still were unaware that I've been picked up by Virginia Virtucon ...I'm writing more frequently over there, but occasionally I update this site with a crosspost.Tito The Builder has endorsed Verne Dickerson as the best qualified, and having the strong character to be Sheriff of Loudoun County.Tito knows the players and has a huge national following, as well as

TitoPAC is launched

2011-04-13T22:26:00.004-04:00

I have a great many friends in the ideological and political realm, and I’m particularly proud of some of them. My best friends are the kind who step forward, right wrongs, and speak for the masses. Birds of a feather, you might say. One such friend is Tito Munoz, who came to America by way of Columbia. When I became aware of “Tito the Builder” and his involvement in the McCain/Palin effort back

Businesses that pay more in taxes, so you don't have to.Rallying with Ralph is Geary Higgins, who's running for the Catoctin District. Geary is a friend, and he understands the rural nature of the

Changing horses..

As most know, I had a good chat with Mike Chapman at the Advance, and after some questions on his vision for the office, I endorsed him in that next couple of days. This was back in November of 2010. I'm one who likes to entrust my support to good folks, and as these months have passed, I've begun to feel like my trust was taken for granted. And the latest mailer "hit piece" produced by the

The Death Knell for PATH?

2011-02-28T14:56:00.004-05:00

This morning, the regional electric grid manager, PJM, issued a statement saying that they've ordered development of the PATH transmission line to halt. (As a reminder, "PATH" is a multi-billion dollar proposal to build a 275-mile long 765-kV transmission line starting at the Amos coal plant in West Virginia, through West Virginia, Virginia and Maryland. In Virginia, it would have crossed through

My good friend, and Precinct Operations Chairman of the LCRC thru the tremendous 2010 election year, Tim Sparbanie has embarked in further service to his neighbors and friends as the latest member of the Lovettsville Town Council. Congratulations, Tim.Do us proud, and keep in touch!

Excellent thoughts on ethnic perceptions.

Glad I caught this one, on an otherwise very busy day where I might have missed it.The author of this piece makes an excellent case for addressing the misperceptions about African Americans and which party truly serves their interest with more verified authenticity.

Seems that Virginia's Senator is throwing in the towel after his particularly unpopular vote against Repeal of the travesty of Government administered healthcare.In coverage of this breaking event, Virginia Virtucon adds the possibility of Tim Kaine filling the void for the Democrats. That'll be interesting as well. Kaine had allowed the amassing of almost $3BIL into the back halls and far

Amazingly, Some of the Supervisors STILL DON'T GET IT.The American People saw a Congress full of blowhards and thugs who bribed, bargained and conducted business out of sight to deliver draconian and unconstitional law onto the People's backs. What came next was predictable.Evidently, these turds seem to think that they are immune to that backdraft.Here's a call to come out and do it again.

These corridors made it possible for utilities to use federal eminent domain (or threaten to use it) for the siting of transmission lines."Recently, the PEC won a 9th Circuit Court case against the Department of Energy designations -- and as of the first day of February, they're gone!

courtesy WikipediaFebruary 1st begins Black History Month. For the first of what I hope are many installments, I want to focus on a man who did so much to elevate himself from his humble beginnings.I admire Frederick Douglas. He was the original "grassroots" cultivator....having outright rejected John Brown's more violent actions for those actions that made a real difference in the end. It
