Cantor announces Spotsy endorsements

Wow!!! Stop the press.. Republicans supporting Republicans. Way to take center stage Steve!Wait a minute, what on earth does a national political party have to do with the School Board? or for that matter our Board of Supervisors?.
I guess you’d have to be a follower of Eric Cantor.Oh I get it, just in-case Al King sets his sights on loftier employment, we’ll know he at least stands for the ‘most morally right’ party. And looking at Al’s previous attempts at gaining an elected office, I think he’d sell off a family member to get something at this point.Seriously though. Good luck to you all.

Steve,
Well see that’s where you start your lie:
http://fredericksburg.com/News/FLS/2007/092007/09302007/320832
FYI Steve–Shows that Bolling did in fact endorse candidates at a local level, as per usual. Any other LIE you care to brainwash your minions with?
I don’t need a national affiliation for our  local issues and I think the educated voter agrees.
 Steve the “show your stripes” falls short here. It’s refreshing to know that Independant candidates owe nothing to a Political Party (Republican, Democrat, Tea, or Liberitarian). Sad thing is they don’t get invited to the fundraiser dinners when Sarah the Wackjob, Rick,Michele or Barack bring their three-ring circus buses to town. Bummer for you she can’t autograph your copies of Going Rogue.
I do think that an Independant candidate can effectively represent their consituants (that means people they represent-Steve) by selecting options not available to partisan slugs, but outside of the local scene (State and National politics) they don’t stand a chance.
What say you Steve?

Incumbants in Spotsylvania Co., VA know too much and are much too involved in governance that stands outside serving County constitutents  and in support of their private partners, construction and development communities. THe likes of Silver, Cosner, Meadows, and Welsh can’t afford to disappoint their makers and financial supporters.

Stafford has 5 republicans on their BOS and the vote count remains the same, but mostly conducted in secret.

Spotsylvania has only 1 republican on its BOS; Jerry Logan. And WE have recalled many votes taken on which Mr. Logan was  preasured more by his party than  conscience.

Take away the labels and Steve’s numbers of 70% Replublican COUNTY, what’s left of any Democratic or Independent challenge to the governance of Spotsylvania.

In desparate times we take desparate means and measures to win over the public, by soliciting State and Federal party members to be the face of local elections, when in fact they serve as cautionary flags that should in most case raise the hair on the back of your necks.

Since Spotsylvania Co. doesn’t have any money, where do you think they get their financing except through selling more GO-Bonds, FOR their partners to conduct business, at lower rates and increases the County’s debt level and eventually leads to the tax payers pocketbook and that means more taxes.

Where, on the other hand, that 70% Republican community does not intend to raise any taxes in the County for what ever growth agendas they have in mind and rely entirely on its citizens ingenuity and personal wealth to sustain the promises Eric Cantor has sworn to, in writing, to never raise taxes.

Is this what it is to pay allegiance to the Republican ideology?

Try sharing some of the angst brought to victims of a huricane and earthquake in Virginia, where the likes of Eric Cantor and Gov McDonnell knowingly put the victims aid on hold or until the Republican Party can find additional means to cut money from the budget and government agencies.

So, on the open market, what’s can ENDORSEMENT worth? Is there a handshake involved or do YOU just take it on a leap of faith? It’s time to be very concerned and very afraid of anyone pretending to be a politician and working in your best interest. Or, in the alternative, sign your PROXY and hand it over to your political party of choice.

Better still, lets move on Steve’s tally of 70% Republicans in the County, and have him put out the word that with 70% of the voters market, why would anyone want to show up at our local elections, much less next year’s National Election?

By the way, where does it say here that Cantor has endorsed Steve Thomas for House Delegate?

Maybe Mr. Cantor needs to go back and read the August 21, 2009 Free Lance-Star editorial “VRE: Logan’s run.” The editorial made it clear that Supervisor Logan played Republican Party politics when it came to Spotsylvania County joining VRE. The editorial made reference to Supervisor Logan being associated with a jellyfish. “The virtue of Mr. Logan’s registration in the phylum Cnidaria” (aka jellyfish) “one of whose members is printed above, is that it sets the stage for the first pure, up or down de facto vote on VRE–at least in two districts–in county history.” The voters of the Courtland District don’t deserve a jellyfish or a supervisor that is a political puppet of the Republican or any other political party. Supervisor Logan was hoping that Supervisors Pitts and Skinner would get defeated, allowing him to vote the republican party desire, and vote against VRE. Mr. Logan got fooled, didn’t he? Yet, at the end Mr. Logan took the easy road and played the political game of sitting on the fense, rather than making the up front decision that he was elected to do. I can’t vote for a jellyfish, regardless of who endorses him.

I say you need to learn to spell “Independent”.

Steve, just who are you trying to fool ????? You are playing that republican numbers game again. Stafford County has a “republican” controlled Board of Supervisors and their tax rate is $1.08. According to you the Spotsylvania County Board of Supervisors is controlled by democrats, yet their tax rate is only 86 cents. That is a 22 cent difference. If Spotsylvania County had a tax rate of $1.08 (like Stafford) I guess they would be in the top ten richest counties in the country as well. Spotsylvania County has decided not to tax their residents to death. Steve, stop fooling people and start compare apples to apples.

Ok Steven, I’m gonna be brutally brutally honest. I can’t read your Lie-induced  rubbish. Dude, you’re terribly small-minded!
Good news though, I do get/and hear your first sentence. (Thanks for saying it first!)
Its like your keyboard is typing but you’re saying nothing.

Ya see Steven, a brand or named party (Dem, or GOP or other) is not what is important to us, and apparently the majority of the county. Odd you have a 70% following but a largely “liberal” board. I personally think the problem is you, you fail at inspiring your little club to get enough voters. But what do I know. I’m just a hack…right?

Ok scrolling down through your rubbish I see you are claiming your conservative leaning board…years 2003-2007 Jobs aplenty…yadda yadda…right…good…

Steven you’re wack dude!. The ENTIRE NATION fell apart because of crooks the nation entrusted with our investments!!, During a war on 2 fronts that an idiot and his private sector cabinet (Haliburton Corp) spent trillions on (albeit needfully so) And you want to pin it on someone or people that make decisions for a county of 122,000 residents.

Oooh ooooh Steve, tell us the story (tale…fable…whatever) of how HALF your neighborhood was foreclosed on. Ha. I get teary eyed everytime I hear it!. But going through the records ,one can’t find this neighborhood anywhere in the Fredericksburg-metro area?. Am I making light of a tragic financial situation, No. Just proving, you can’t tell the truth.

Steve, stop and think about what you are saying, are you promoting the idea that Spotsylvania Co. follow in the footsteps of Stafford Co?? Provide a tax rate of $1.08 instead of .86 and do away witht he BPOL. To begin withi t is a fact that the BPOL tax has very little if any influence when a business decides where to locate. More focus is placed on the quality of life for the employees. If Spotsylvania Co. had Stafford’s tax rate ($1.08) that would equate to an additional income of $26.4 million vs our present rate of .86. For this tax payer keep my rate at .86 as well as the BPOL tax.
