Dumb and Dumber in Virginia Governor Race

As Virginia’s odd-year election approaches, Democratic candidate Creigh Deeds has unleashed a frenzy of promises to spend money on everyone he can think of. On Saturday Deeds campaigned in Southwest Virginia at a rally sponsored by the United Mine Workers union, whose leaders say the time has come to “take from the upper one per cent that portion of the wealth they’ve been stealing for the past 35 years and return it to the workers.” Dumb, but — if possible — getting dumber.

One thing you can say I think with relative certainty is that Deeds is lying. Even if he really did want to confiscate the wealth of the wealthy, which I doubt since he knows they could just move out of state, he would not get away with it since he would need legislative approval. I do think though that it would be interesting if he tried to do it. Virginia might be the first state to revolt.

Oh of course he wants to confiscate wealth and not just from the true “wealthy”. Wake up to what the left wants to do and what dem shills are willing to do.

The left will keep applying irrational and unjust approaches. It’s what they do.

You are right, of course, which is why they want the Federal government to do the dirty work and then dole out the proceeds as largesse — “Federal dollars,” as they like to say in DeeCee.
