Bob Marshall Makes It Official
16 January 2012 | Virginia Politics, US Senate | 11 Comments
With Virginia’s Republican establishment blog Bearing Drift heaping scorn on Marshall on the same day Marshall officially announces his candidacy, I have little doubt George Allen is very concerned about his political future. To me, that’s good. A primary that does little more than anointing a candidate on the basis that they’re owed […]

WashPo: Bob Marshall Is IN!
12 January 2012 | Virginia Politics, US Senate | 3 Comments
So sayeth the mainstream media. If Bob Marshall indeed announces his candidacy for US Senate, he will have my full support. No one has for so long, and with such consistent determination, fought for life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness as Bob Marshall.

BVBL Candidate Moment: E. W. Jackson
10 November 2011 | Virginia Politics, US Senate | 7 Comments
I ran into E. W. Jackson during the Prince William GOTV Rally last week and took this opportunity to do a short interview with him. A lot of people in Northern Virginia haven’t heard of Bishop Jackson, and he’s one of the Republican candidates worth checking out as the US Senate nomination race starts […]

I Am Disgusted By George Allen Today
26 August 2011 | Virginia Politics, US Senate | 19 Comments
Normally a US Senate race happening more than a year from now wouldn’t get a whole lot of attention from me. We have more immediate concerns in Virginia, and it doesn’t please me a whole lot that with a battle that would decide the balance of power in the Senate of Virginia we’ve got Senate […]

Mark Warner Is Out?
1 August 2011 | US Senate | 20 Comments
Heard today that there’s some buzz that Senator Mark Warner will not run for re-election in 2014. That would be an interesting development.
EW Jackson at the LCRC
24 July 2011 | Loudoun County, US Senate | 6 Comments
Quite a few folks have been clamoring to see if I had any video of E. W. Jackson’s speech at the LCRC Convention. Here’s what I have. I hadn’t planned on bothering with candidates running in 2012 races as they’re already sucking way too much oxygen out of the 2011 elections, but when […]
Just Call Me Macacca, Already
3 June 2011 | Virginia Politics, US Senate | 9 Comments
The race for U. S. Senate in Virginia has hardly begun, and for the second time I’m getting called names by George Allen supporters. First, one supporter says that anyone who doesn’t toe the George Allen line is a troll. Now they’re calling me a bigot on the same day Allen bent over backwards on […]

The Unfair and Unbalanced Media
10 April 2011 | Virginia Politics, US Senate, US Congress | 18 Comments
Guest Post by Sanford D. Horn
While Congressman Jim Moran’s assault on the military and its veterans went viral Friday, April 8, one day following a town hall meeting held in Alexandria at Hammond Middle School, nary a word appeared in The Washington Post.
Moran treated Wayne Tunick, a disabled 27-year veteran rudely following an important question […]

Tim Kaine Jumps In

I think what this means is that Governor Timmy! is going to run for Senate.
George Allen Camp Calls Me A Bad Name
22 March 2011 | Virginia Politics, US Senate | 10 Comments
Here’s one that struck me as rather odd today: One of George Allen’s supporters wasn’t quite happy that in an online poll on BearingDrift.com Allen wasn’t getting the stratospheric levels of support that he thought George was due. While that’s in no way unusual, what is unusual is the message he sent out over facebook […]

Nightmare Amnesty Dies In U.S. Senate
18 December 2010 | Illegal Aliens, US Senate | 11 Comments
The “DREAM Act” nightmare amnesty was killed in the U. S. Senate on a 55-41 vote this morning with Senators Webb and Warner voting the wrong way, yet again. After ten years of resisting and defeating every amnesty pushed by both the Bush and Obama administrations the American people are poised with the new congress […]

Rise Of The Anti-George Allen Brigade?
5 December 2010 | Virginia Politics, US Senate | 17 Comments
I don’t know if these rumors are true or not. If they are, anyone engaging in this kind of dirty campaigning needs to have every political ambition of theirs shot down and burned to a crisp. Trying to take out potential primary competitors by funding challengers on their own turf is disgusting.

Another November Is Coming
21 September 2010 | Virginia Politics, US Senate | 29 Comments
It’s well worth noting that Senators Webb and Warner voted today to attach provisions to the Defense Authorization Bill to force military hospitals to perform abortions, permit open homosexuality in the Armed Forces, and give illegal alien “children” up to 35 years of age in-state tuition rates and amnesty so they can sponsor their parents […]

It’s Official: Senator Warner Is On Crack
9 August 2010 | Illegal Aliens, US Senate | 48 Comments
“This is why we desperately need bipartisan immigration reform,” Warner said. “At the end of the day, we’ve got to have a system where the employer can verify the legal status before they hire someone … and right now, we don’t have anything like that.” Senator Mark Warner, quoted in the News & Messenger on […]

Bad Call, Governor
26 February 2010 | National Politics, Virginia Politics, US Senate | 69 Comments
This is a big disappointment. I could understand Governor McDonnell keeping mum about the Arizona senate race, but I can’t understand Bob McDonnell endorsing for re-election that tremendous and consistent disappointment to conservatives called John McCain.
Mark Warner Comedy Gold
26 December 2009 | Virginia Politics, US Senate | 7 Comments
From the most excellent From On High:
According to Amy Gardner, Washington Post reporter, Virginia Senator Mark Warner’s first year in office was a waste of time (he “has found himself mainly on the sidelines”), but he’s doing his best to pull his liberal Democrat colleagues back toward the “center” of American politics.
Say what?
Yeah, the Post […]

Warner and Webb: Harry Reid’s Lap Dogs
21 December 2009 | National Politics, US Senate | 18 Comments
In the middle of the night the Senate invoked cloture on the massive “manager’s amendment” to the Senate’s health care bill, with Senators Warner and Webb voting to stop the discussion. Although no one has been able to actually see the amendment under consideration, it includes Sen. Harry Reid’s unprecedented payoff to Ben Nelson […]

Since Others Are Getting Freebies…
19 December 2009 | National Politics, US Senate | 19 Comments
Senator Ben Nelson held out a bit on ObamaCare and got hundreds of millions of dollars from the federal government to cover the increased costs that will be forced on to states like Virginia as a result of this bill. Senator Mary Landrieu got 300 million dollars for Louisiana in return for her support. Some […]

NLS Attacks Grandmother
17 December 2009 | Virginia Politics, US Senate | 7 Comments
Note: vulgarity alert (below the fold)
I can understand a blogger supporting a preferred candidate or elected official. What I can’t grasp is what would drive one to personally attack an elderly lady expressing her opinion as a “pathetic old woman” when she happens not to like that candidate. Has the left become so incredibly unhinged […]

Jim Webb’s Constituent Service
16 December 2009 | National Politics, US Senate | 21 Comments
Senator Jim Webb, you better start treating your constituents better. You don’t want more of them feeling like this.
UPDATE: NLS is now attacking this woman. Read more here.
