We Call Them the Dirty Dozen!

The outrage being expressed by local members of the Virginia General Assembly over the contract to build the new Elizabeth River tunnel connecting Norfolk and Portsmouth falls on deaf ears. How can they possibly vote for House Bill 1253 which creates another unelected body that will also be hiding in the caverns of darkness crafting their their contracts on new transportation projects and raising taxes without providing public hearings for the taxpayers paying the bills.

In addition, no one is mentioning the fact that this newly-created commission is going to create a new expansion of government whose funding revenues will come from the operating budgets from each of the cities and counties in the Tidewater region and will run in the millions and grow exponentially.

The Republicrats need to be taught a lesson on their approval on this bill. We cannot allow them a "Get Out of Jail" pass like they were given on last year's endorsement of the largest tax increase in the history of Virginia.

Conservatives, you are getting the government you deserve and it's quite evident you enjoy being played like a violin and as Court Jesters to these RINOs!
