The Daily Press’s Shad Plank blog calls this video released by GOP gubernatorial candidate Ken Cuccinelli an “attack” ad. No one questions the facts imparted in the video. The outlets which have been covering Democrat candidate Terry McAuliffe’s less than open departure from GreenTech certainly don’t share a reputation for conservative or Republican bias. They include Politico, the Washington Post, and the Associated Press.

Could Salisbury Use an “Extreme Makeover” Downtown?
April 8, 2013 by Leave a Comment
It’s been tried in San Antonio. This weekend it will be tried in Norfolk. Perhaps Salisbury could benefit from a quick and dirty “Extreme Makeover”?
This weekend a group of volunteers and the urban planning firm Team Better Block will unveil a temporary “makeover” of a neglected section of Granby Street (once Norfolk’s vibrant main thoroughfare). The key word in this is “temporary”.
Why would a municipality spend thousands of dollars to temporarily fix-up a section of town? It gives people a chance to not only visualize, but actually experience, a re-vitalization plan. Rather than spend hundreds of thousands, or millions, of dollars on a plan that may be good … or bad, Team Better Block’s approach is simple:
- Do Something
- Do it CHEAPLY
- Do it QUICKLY
People get to see the potential of an area. Potential developers / investors can be attracted. Bureaucracy is curtailed. The advantages are almost endless.
Delegate Demonstrates Treachery in Maryland House of Delegates
March 31, 2013 by Leave a Comment
Maryland Delegate Mike Smigiel (R-36) has posted a video which shows the House Judiciary Committee changing the vote AFTER an amendment had passed. The amendment, offered by Smigiel, would have increased punishment for criminals convicted of a gun crime.
One of the arguments against Maryland governor Martin O’Malley’s gun control measure is that it punishes law-abiding Marylanders while doing NOTHING to punish criminals or actually prevent gun crime.
The video was prepared by pro – Second Amendment group The Maryland Minutemen.
Ireton Views on Business and Profit
March 19, 2013 by Leave a Comment
Last week, Don Rush of Delmarva Public Radio interviewed both candidates for mayor of Salisbury. The contrast was startling. While this was not candidate (and SBYNews publisher) Joe Albero’s best interview, he was relaxed and discussed the issues facing the city. Incumbent mayor Jim Ireton was agitated, sarcastic, interrupted Rush numerous times, and let the world know that Salisbury is NOT a business-friendly community.
See the interviews below. Ireton’s starts at about 29 minutes in.
Ireton claims great accomplishment. Nothing is his fault. If something didn’t happen it was because of the city council, specifically Debbie Campbell. If businesses believe that Salisbury isn’t business-friendly, it’s THEIR fault, not the city’s. Oh … and he PLANS to do lots of things IF he’s re-elected.
For every ten people that come to the city, five feel they’ve been treated OK. – Salisbury mayor Jim Ireton
What is most disturbing is Ireton’s attitude towards business. If you make a profit, you need to pay more. If the police have to come to your business TWICE in TWO YEARS, the city (NOT a judge) should be able to shut you down. If you appeal, you have to appeal to the same person who already decided to close your doors.
If you are a businessperson looking to move to Salisbury and you hear the mayor sarcastically asking questions like, “Who made that profit?” or “Somebody’s making money somewhere.” do you think that Salisbury is a great place to do business?
Ireton states, “For every ten people that come to the city, five feel they’ve been treated OK.” Ireton thinks that’s acceptable! Do you deal with businesses who take the attitude that they only need to satisfy 50% of their customers? If you are a business do you want to move to a city that takes this attitude? If you are a businessperson in Salisbury, do you want to expand in a city that takes this attitude?
You don’t have to give away the store to attract businesses. You don’t have to make Salisbury unsafe to encourage businesses to expand. You do need a sea change in attitude. Satisfying 50% of your customers is NOT acceptable. Making Salisbury “more progressive” isn’t going to attract business.
A Lesson in Socialism
February 21, 2013 by 1 Comment
I have to PROUDLY thank my eldest son for bringing this to my attention. The producer has illustrated a valuable lesson, with great humor.
Just as there’s no incentive to work hard if everyone gets the same grade, these principles apply to a whole array of real life examples:
Why is government so inefficient?
When your are spending other people’s money, and it’s almost impossible to lose your job, what is the incentive to spend money wisely and carry out tasks efficiently?
Why does cutting taxes actually increases government revenue (in the macro)?
What is the incentive to work harder to make more income when the government takes an increasing share of every new dollar earned? At some point the marginal utility of each dollar earned becomes less than spending work time on more leisurely activities.
How did unions destroy American manufacturing?
Starting off as a great (and necessary) idea, America’s labor unions morphed into organizations that demanded pay hikes without productivity increases. Why increase productivity when you have nearly the same job protection as a government employee? Oppressive work rules, along with unsustainable benefit packages, either put companies out of business, incentivized employers to move to right to work states, or move their operations overseas.

Biden on Romney – “He’s Gonna Put Y’all Back in Chains”
August 15, 2012 by Leave a Comment
DANVILLE, VA – Gaffes aplenty along the Dan River, thanks to Vice President Joe Biden. First, Biden couldn’t figure out which state he was in. Then, Biden decided to crawl right down into the gutter with the rest of the Obama campaign:
Telling a crowd that included hundreds of African-Americans that Mitt Romney was “…gonna put y’all back in chains” is chump change compared to some of lies being told by Barack Obama and his campaign surrogates. Unfortunately, it is yet one more example of a ticket that will do anything, say anything, to remain in power.
In Ohio, presumptive GOP nominee Mitt Romney responded:
If Romney’s remarks seem a tad harsh, ask this question – What would be the response from the mainstream media if Romney leveled false charges against Obama similar to those being thrown, on a daily basis, by Obama and his campaign?

WASHINGTON – Broadcasters in Maryland are green with envy as Virginia and DC market stations are rolling in newly found revenue thanks to Virginia being a swing state. In the Hampton Roads market it seems you can’t flip the channel without coming across a Romney, Obama, Allen, Kaine, or Super PAC ad.

Just like his pal Barack Obama, Kaine’s comeback is that his record shouldn’t be scrutinized, instead he encourages the media to focus on his opponent – former governor and senator George Allen.

Virginia vs. Maryland … Again
August 5, 2012 by 1 Comment
According to the Daily Record:
Maryland lost 4.71 percent, or 6,494, of its small businesses from 2007 to 2010, a decrease that one fiscal policy group chalks up to the state’s tax increases.
The difference between the tax policies, and the flight of capital and jobs, was recently highlighted on the Fox Business Channel:
A key statistic – Virginia ranks as the 7th best place to do business. Maryland? 40th. While both states depend heavily on federal dollars, Virginia actively courts business – small and large. Maryland actively drives businesses away.
Voters to Barack Obama – “It’s the Economy Stupid”
July 19, 2012 by 2 Comments
WASHINGTON – While incumbent President Barack Obama continues to hold on to a virtual tie with former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney, he lags further and further behind in voters’ views of his handling of the economy. Currently Romney holds (nationally) a 3 – 1 lead among voters in this area.
Voters invested a lot in Barack Obama in 2008. He was young, vital, and the first serious African-American candidate for president. Yet, voters continue to pull away from Obama despite heavy spending on ads attacking Romney.
In the key swing state of Virginia it seems you can’t watch television for more than 20 minutes without seeing at least one Obama ad, almost all of them negative. Yet the Washington Post, hardly a mouthpiece for the Romney campaign, reports that the race for Old Dominion voters is a tie.
MDE Secretary – “Let Them Eat Cake”
July 19, 2012 by Leave a Comment
Thanks to Del. Mike Smigiel (R-36)
Maryland Environment Secretary Robert Summers displays the arrogance typical of Democrats in the Baltimore – DC corridor. We shouldn’t be surprised that an elitist, “limousine liberal” like Summers thinks that $8,000 is a “modest” sum and that no hard working Maryland citizen should resent ponying up to install a new septic system so that the Chesapeake Bay MIGHT become a tiny bit cleaner.
A career academician and political appointee, Summers has spent his adult life spending other people’s money. It shouldn’t be a great surprise that Summers takes the attitude that no cost is too great to reach some rationalistic ideal. Of course, it also means that he gets to continue to spend YOUR hard earned money.
Delegate Smigiel hits the nail right on the head:
In closing Secretary Summers said that these costs are not more than those on public water systems are already paying. I doubt that anyone on public systems are being forced to pay tens of thousands of dollars to have a child or parent move into their home. The Secretary leaves out of his equation the fact that Septic System owners also pay through out the life of their systems the cost of cleaning and maintaining them.
The Secretary never addresses the taking issue, nor does he attempt to justify the heavy handed tactics of circumventing the legislature other than to say, we believe we can pass regulations without the legislature.
If there was ever any doubt that Gov. Martin O’Malley and his minions have declared war on rural Maryland, the legally questionable tactics of O’Malley appointees like Secretary Summers should leave no doubt.

Test of Fire
May 28, 2012 by Leave a Comment
The Obama administration wants to force Christian institutions, such as the Roman Catholic Church, to violate core doctrine. For Christians, this is a violation of religious liberty. For the left, opposition to these federal regulations constitutes a “war on women”. Fortunately, the Catholic Church is fighting back:
As Donald Cardinal Wuerl, Archibishop of Washington, explains, this is an issue of religious liberty. While the Obama administration claims that an accommodation has been made to handle this issue, Cardinal Wuerl notes that many institutions are self-insured.
Besides this simple fact, it is laughable that forcing insurance companies to “provide contraception coverage for free” somehow keeps a Catholic institution from violating its doctrine. Where does the money to provide this coverage come from? If it’s a commercial insurer, the money comes from those that pay premiums. If the institution is self-insured …
This is but one more problem with electing a president that has NO understanding of the free market … and who prays to the secular god statism.

BEIJING – Blind Chinese dissident Chen Guangcheng has told the AP that US Embassy staff relayed a message to him that the Chinese government threatened to beat his wife to death if he did not leave the American compound in Beijing.
Chen, who fled to the embassy six day ago, left under an agreement in which he would receive medical care, be reunited with his family and allowed to attend university in a safe place. He says he now fears for his safety and wants to leave.
A U.S. official denies knowledge of the threat, but says Chen was told his family would be sent back home if he stayed in the embassy.
Chen left the US Embassy because of those threats and is now in a Beijing hospital.
Obama Lies … You Are Deceived, Manipulated and Disrespected
May 1, 2012 by 1 Comment
In 2010, in order to get his healthcare bill passed, President Obama lied about and demonized doctors because the great majority of them opposed his healthcare bill.
Please review the document in this link. This document is the actual web site posting by Trailblazer, a private company, which performs administrative functions for Medicare. This document simply shows the actual amount of the payment Medicare made to surgeons who performed foot or lower leg amputations back in 2010. The payment Medicare made to each surgeon for a foot or lower leg amputation was approximately $1000.
Now click the link below to watch our president give one of his crafty healthcare speeches in 2010:
Obama Lies About What Doctors Are Paid
Obama made the assertion that a surgeon was paid 30, 40 or 50 thousand dollars for amputation of a foot (lower leg)! However, you now know that the true figure is approximately $1,000. Clearly, Obama lied. The total cost of a lower leg amputation might be as high as 30 thousand dollars, but the great majority of the 30K or 40K or 50K goes to the hospital, not the surgeon.

DETROIT, MI – Former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney won a 20 point victory, capturing all 29 delegates in yesterday’s Arizona primary. In his home state of Michigan, Romney managed a 3% win over former Pennsylvania senator Rick Santorum. While the two appear to have split Michigan’s delegates, there is a chance that Santorum could wind up with more delegates from the state as 8 Michigan delegates remain unallocated.
Moving into next week’s Super Tuesday primaries, Romney appears to be running behind both Santorum and former Speaker Newt Gingrich. Currently Romney hold a substantial delegate lead over all of his opponents, but no candidate is near the 1,144 delegates needed to secure the nomination.

Sons of Confederate Veterans Fight Lexington Flag Ban
January 6, 2012 by Leave a Comment
LEXINGTON, VA – Last year the Lexington City Council passed an ordinance banning the flying of Confederate flags from city-owned flag poles. As Lee-Jackson Day approaches, the local chapter (Camp 1296) of the Sons of Confederate Veterans is taking the matter to court.
While it has been always been our position that flying the Battle Flag (what most people believe to be the “Confederate” flag is really a rectangular version of the battle flag of the Army of Northern Virginia) is protected by the First Amendment, we also believe that it is, at best, rude; at worst, intimidating. That said, there are certain places where flying various Confederate flags: whether the “Bonnie Blue”, the “Stars and Bars”, 2nd Flag, 3rd Flag, a battle flag ,etc. is appropriate. Lexington, particularly on Lee-Jackson Day is one such place.
While most people who claim that flying the battle flag is “Heritage, Not Hate” have little no historical ties to the Confederacy, places such as Lexington, Fredericksburg, Richmond, Vicksburg, Montgomery, and Charleston have have deep ties to the Confederacy AND to the “War Between the States”.
Banning the flying of historic flags, despite the potential for divisiveness, in such places is short sighted at best. In places such as Lexington, the Confederacy is a key part of their history. For some, that history is a source of pride; for others, shame. To attempt to hide that history is simply revisionism run amok – political correctness at the cost of our true heritage.

Anthony Brown vs. Mitt Romney

… or is it Mitt vs. Mitt?
The Baltimore Sun’s Maryland Politics blog reported the other day that Maryland Lt. Gov. Anthony Brown was taking part in conference call promoting the Democrat Party’s agenda of portraying GOP presidential candidate, and former Massachusetts governor, Mitt Romney as an unprincipled flip-flopper. There’s just one problem … Brown, and the Democrats, are telling the truth.
Here’s the current television commercial being run by the DNC:
It’s short and to the point. The longer web video is rich with examples of Romney flip-flopping on a host of issues:
I recognize that the abysmal performance of Obama has motivated even some normally principled conservatives to be willing to hold their nose and pull the lever for Romney. Just last night I had a conversation with someone that I hold in high regard. While readily admitting that Romney is wholly unprincipled, his response was, “He can win.”
Perhaps, but at what price?
We have seen what has happened when Republicans nominate and elect candidates who claim to be conservatives, but aren’t. Is defeating Barack Obama at the price of the wholesale abandonment of principle worth it?
If you truly believe in American exceptionalism then the answer is clearly no. Yes, Barack Obama has been a horrible President. However, our nation could survive a second Obama term. Can we survive the loss of the very principles which make this country great? I would argue that this is too great a price … even to defeat Barack Obama.
