Good evening readers. Just a few hours ago, I received a handful of pictures and a brief video from the Sarah Palin book signing earlier this month. Although I wasn’t able to attend myself, it looks as quite a few folks braved the rainy/snowy weather to meet the former Governor. Can’t really think of anything [...]

Preemptive War: The Other Side of the Coin
Posted in Political Musings, tagged Preemptive War on December 27, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Well over a year ago, I posted an article regarding my thoughts on preemptive war. As mentioned then, I wrote it for the William & Mary publication, the Freeman-Standard. Unfortunately, due to a handful of issues, the article never made it to print. In the last week or two I noticed a spike in the [...]
Avatar: A Political Review
Posted in Political Musings, tagged Avatar, Conservative Politics, Environmentalism, Hinduism, Liberal Politics, Politics In Film on December 25, 2009 | 22 Comments »
Earlier this week, I watched the new movie, Avatar, and I wanted to share my thoughts about the work. Originally the title struck me as a bit odd. I think the first time I heard the word “avatar” was in a class in Hinduism. In Hindu theology, from time to time the gods take mortal [...]
A Killers’ Christmas
Posted in Political Musings, tagged Christmas, Don't Shoot Me Santa, Jesus, Materalism, Santa, The Killers on December 21, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
If you read last year’s posts entitled “‘Tis the Season Part I & II” you know that I don’t care much for the Christmas season. Unlike our increasingly amoral and immoral society it’s not the Christian aspect I mind, but the focus on materialism, greed, and the well-spread lie of the man in the red [...]
Memoirs from the 93rd: Part V
Posted in Political Musings, The General Assembly, Virginia Politics, tagged 93rd District, Bob McDonnell, Election 2009, George Allen, House of Delegates, James City County, John McCain, Newport News, Phil Hamilton, Robin Abbott on December 15, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
The Numbers Game How does a Republican candidate win in a Democratic district? John McCain won approximately 38% of the vote in the 93rd district back in 2008. Jim Gilmore only managed 28% in the same year. George Allen captured approximately 45% of the vote in 2006. Given that all of the percentages are below [...]
Memoirs from the 93rd: Part IV
Posted in Political Musings, tagged 93rd District, Election 2009, House of Delegates, Phil Hamilton, Robin Abbott on December 11, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
The Opposition As stated in Part II of this series, in the 93rd, we had opposition from a number of sources. Not only did we have to contend with the Robin Abbott campaign, but also were attacked by the Democratic Party of Virginia, various interest groups, and Steve Shannon. However, the focus of this piece [...]
The Courage to Speak Out
Posted in Political Musings, tagged Health Care, Prostate Cancer, RMH Regional Cancer Center on December 10, 2009 | 2 Comments »
On Monday, while leafing through the Daily News Record, I came across an advertisement that caught my eye. It was a public notice about the RMH Regional Cancer Center. What drew my attention was not the ad itself, but rather the person pictured. Shortly thereafter, I contacted the hospital and asked for a copy of [...]
Defeat Obama Care!

As SWAC Girl reminds us, please call Senators Webb and Warner and let them know you want them to vote no on the upcoming health care bill vote. I’ve already done most of the work for you: Senator Jim Webb 202-224-4024 Senator Mark Warner 877-676-2759 All you have to do is tell them to vote [...]
To Marry A Tiger
Posted in Political Musings, Theological Questions, tagged Adultery, Tiger Woods on December 6, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Recently the news reported Tiger Woods’ infidelity concerning his affairs with one or more women. Usually, I don’t take much interest in the lives of celebrities; who’s dating whom, who’s photographed on a wild bender, or who’s entering or leaving rehab. These are fodder for the supermarket tabloids, not serious news sources. However, I believe [...]
