Opie just cracked me up talking about changing the system & breaking agendas by voting for an entrenched Republican that loves hiking taxes. You can't make this stuff up! :-D

"IMO Russ Potts and his kind are the problem - not part of the solution."
Russ Potts is a crackpot - Vote Kilgore if you want this state to remain in the red column.

I'll take the ribbing.
I just can't continue to vote for the parties in power. I'll vote Independent or Libertarian or Green for that matter. They won't win, but at least I won't be voting for the agenda that continues on and on and on.
Taxes, abortion, euthanasia, and other interesting non-issues keep the same politicians in power over and over and even when the politicians change, they still represent the same agenda.
I just can't see where this is going with either Kaine or Kilgore.
Our "GOP" Congress seems to have enacted nothing of the things that matter to people. Nothing. And the democrats are more the same. Taxes? That changes year to year, need to need.

But Potts said he would defer his gas tax increase until after the refineries have recovered from Katrina, so it isn't all bad.
Potts/Byrne -- the true liberal ticket in Virginia.

Liberalism is a cancer that resides in our cities and threatens the rest of the country with its infection. We need to cut out the cancer to save the body.

Sorry. The GOP is no longer a conservative party.
There has been more government spending and more government bureaucracy created in the past years than any other administration since F.D.R.

Call me a one note person - but anyone proposing a nearly 3 fold increase in cigarette taxes - after already accomplishing a 3000% increase deserves nothing less than to be left in the dust.
And it's not really about cigarettes - it's the principle of it - that's an easy one, because most people don't smoke - but it also says to me that someone lese is next.
I have been an excise/sales tax opponent to a certain extent for most of my life and have no intention of changing.

Would anyone want to live , or run a business next to one of these sites? I would suggest any city council that wants one place it next to city hall.The first one proposed was to go right outside the WETA (aka PBS) office in Shirlington.
I think they relocated it to a "more appropriate" spot.

Then you aren't paying attention.

Reminds me of the same ol' folks (read: disgrunted Libertarians - is there any other kind?) who claimed there was no difference between Bush and Gore or Bush and Kerry.

Nothing personal here, but anyone claiming that taxes are a non-issue has very little credibility with me.

Potts looks to be running to the left of Kaine on most issues.
Looks like Potts is taking votes away from Kaine.

There has been more government spending and more government bureaucracy created in the past years than any other administration since F.D.R.
The fact that the Dept. of Education not only still exists, but has been expanded in the last 4 years, makes me wonder. And you cannot deny the increases in non-defense, non-disaster-related spending.
"Conservative government" may very well be an oxymoron, but "big goverment Republican" seems redundant these days.
