Change the subject as quick as possible when cornered, don’t you 2012?? I can smell your fear of truth in each of your post—

You have refused to answer any question asked of you—Even simple Yes or No questions—

As for newspapers, when did you start believing these same papers you accuse of liberal bias and main-stream liberals??

You have received the answers to your biased half truths—-Do you ever intend to grow a set and answer some simple Yes or No questions you have been asked on this forum??  Maybe if you ask politely your sister will let you borrow her’s—

The editors probably came to their conclusion by thoroughly looking at the Democratic candidates dirty Deeds.

“McDonnells Distorted Attack”
http://www.factcheck.org/2009/10/mcdonnells-damning-distortions/
Quotes from factcheck:
“Deeds has never proposed a “billion dollar gas tax increase,“ as the ad claims”
“Its also wrong for McDonnell to say that cap-and-trade legislation will cost families $6,800”
“Washington isnt considering, cap-and-trade legislation that would raise energy costs for families by $6,800. Not even close”

“McDonnell Ad Cites Praise, Leaves Out Criticism”
http://factcheck.org/2009/09/mcdonnell-ad-cites-praise-leaves-out-criticism/
Quotes from factcheck
“is running an ad thats meant to bathe his “comprehensive transportation plan” in a warm glow. Ironically, though, the ads only reference for its claims is an editorial from the Washington Post in July that devotes far more space to criticizing McDonnells plan than to praising it.“
“We suspect the McDonnell campaign was wearing its selective-vision goggles when it cut this ad. “

Editorial: Deciding who’s being honest
We wanted to take Bob McDonnell up on his challenge.
http://www.roanoke.com/editorials/wb/222416
Quotes:
“"I’m going to let the people and the editorial boards decide who’s being honest,“ McDonnell said.“
‘He then falsely charges Deeds with supporting federal cap-and-trade legislation.“
“McDonnell has since escalated this fallacy and is now airing an ad that claims Deeds will raise taxes $7,800 on Virginia families. It’s pure fabrication.“
“"this ad’s $7,800 figures is mostly hot air.“—-And McDonnell knows it.
“voters can be deceived by candidates’ spin.
“Take this week’s debate, for instance. McDonnell summed it up this way in a mass e-mail: He put “his positive vision for new jobs and lower taxes up against Creigh Deeds’ ... clear commitment to raising taxes on Virginians in the middle of a recession.“ (emphasis added)

Did you hear that part? We surely didn’t. But then, who are we gonna believe: Bob McDonnell or our lying ears?“

Trying to confuse the McDonnell supporters with facts?  My guess is they won’t bother reading.  Afterall, he is from the party with God in the creed.  Surely that means he always tells the truth.  He’s just read between the lines or read their minds or something.  Those awful fact checkers have an agenda that makes them tell the truth so they must be ignored.

So what you are telling us is that the Roanoke newspaper says both men are being dishonest?

I ran across the following article.

It is a rare politician who unites newspaper editorial boards across the political spectrum and across the state of Virginia. Democratic gubernatorial candidate R. Creigh Deeds has done just that: Throughout the state, observers agree that he is running a flatly dishonest advertising campaign that discredits his own claim to be worthy of the office.

Consider, for instance, a Deeds ad that directly blames Mr. McDonnell for a series of rate increases by the Appalachian Power Co. The Lynchburg News and Advance calls the ad “an outright lie, and the good senator and his campaign operatives know it.“ The Roanoke Times chimed in that “Deeds’ ad is not honest.“ And: “The ironic thing is that Sen. Deeds voted for that bill ... that entitled Appalachian to its increase and now criticizes his opponent for enforcing that law. ... Deeds should be ashamed.“

Then there were several Deeds ads falsely accusing Mr. McDonnell of repeatedly supporting tax increases. The Virginian-Pilot in Hampton Roads analyzed the ads and called them “ludicrous.“ And it suggested, “Deeds has deliberately concocted disingenuous and deceitful ads because he thinks voters are too stupid to know better.“

Most ubiquitous here in Northern Virginia have been a series of Deeds ads painting Mr. McDonnell as having a Stone Age approach to social issues. Even The Washington Post, which wasted an almost unimaginable amount of ink on Mr. McDonnell’s 20-year-old graduate thesis, found Mr. Deeds’ ads to be false. The ads say Mr. McDonnell “opposed birth control for married adults.“ The Post’s fact checkers wrote: “As a state lawmaker from Virginia Beach from 1992 to 2006, McDonnell voted for a bill to give pharmacists a ‘conscience clause’ allowing them to not fill prescriptions. He also voted for a bill barring the morning-after pill. ... We’re not aware of any legislation to keep contraception away from married couples.“ The Lynchburg paper also chimed in, calling the ads “a load of bunk.“

Those are harsh words, but Mr. Deeds deserves every one.

Then there is this nugget.

In support of Bob McDonnell for Governor, Delegate Bob Marshall has provided an interesting and informative letter for his constituents.

Since Creigh Deeds, Bob McDonnell and I were all elected to the Virginia House of Delegates in 1991, I can speak from personal experience as well as from a verifiable public record.

Creigh Deeds states that Bob McDonnell does not support equal pay for equal work.  This claim does not square with HJR 341 which Bob McDonnell, Creigh Deeds and I all voted for on February 17, 1998.

HJR 341 requested the Virginia Department of Personnel and Training to examine specific state agencies and specific job classes for possible reasons for gender pay differences.

The study found: out of 6,086 comparable Virginia state workforce jobs, only 61 showed salary differences.  In 33 of these positions men were paid more; in 28 of these positions, women were paid more.  (Reasons for disparity were experience, performance, competitive offers, Northern Virginia differentials, length of service, administrative error and transaction sequence.)

House Document No. 06 (2000) reported No indication was found that employees genders formed the basis for pay disparity in any agency.

Because of Creigh Deeds much publicized recent concerns about women being paid the same as men, I further checked the public record for all the bills Senator Deeds introduced from 1994 through 2009.  All of this can be searched on the Internet.

In this period Sen. Creigh Deeds did not propose even one bill concerning equal pay for equal work.  Perhaps he thought about introducing such bills, but there are none on the record.

SB 1025 became law in 1995.  Creigh Deeds campaign claims that Bob McDonnell opposed it because it was legislation to give women equal pay for equal work.

However, Bob McDonnell, Creigh Deeds, and I all voted for this law which provides:

No employer employing more than five but less than fifteen persons shall discharge any such employee on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin or sex, or of age if the employee is forty years or older.

Frankly, the little storybook website that Creigh Deeds produced disproves his own allegations against Bob McDonnell!  But why am I writing this to you?  Well, I gave this information to a reporter for a major newspaper but have yet to see a public correction!

I have additional information like this which shows major discrepancies between Creigh Deeds assertions and Bob McDonnells bills and voting record, which I will try to circulate when I get a moment to catch my breath from my own delegate race!

Which reminds me, please go to http://www.delegatebob.com and make whatever donation you can afford so that I can continue to speak out with reliable facts and act on behalf of all citizens of the Commonwealth to restore the values which made Virginia a great state.

Sincerely,

Delegate Bob Marshall
(703) 853-4213.

God isn’t what frightens me.  It’s the political party that plays with the name of God and all that it stands for for their own gain, politically and financially.  They use it for political gain but my fear is that political gain is more important than the truth or the faith.  In that respect, they are no better than the Islamists who distort the meaning of the Quran.  That is what I fear-the party that plays with religion and faith, whipping it’s base into a frenzy.  Actions speak louder than words and lately, Republican politicians, including McDonnell haven’t shown me much.  Now 2012, go after the democratic politicians as a defense for the Republicans.  After all the ends are justified by the means. All is fair in love war and politics.  But only Republican politicians can be justified in their indescretions, lies, whatever because they have God in the creed.

two questions

1.  Which governor almost destroyed the bond rating of Virginia?  Republican Jim Gilmore.

2.  Who was the governor in office when the state received accolades for the best managed
    state in the nation???  Democrat Kaine and I think Democrat Warner also.

I’ll add another question that 2012 has ignored.  Are you registered to vote in VA?  If not, why do you have such a vested interest?

Which president is going to go down in history for presiding over the loss of the dollar as the worlds reserve currency.

I’ll give you a hint.  In 9 months he racked up a larger annual deficit than all previous presidents combined, watching it lose 10% value in 3 months.

The same president that is going to give the whole US junk bond status.

I appreciate your concern. 

I still believe 2012 will be the year that Americans will be fed up enough to kick the radicals outta the White House and return it to those who still love their country and have its best inetersts at heart.

Going to keep grasping for the race card.  It only cheapens it.  No one who has read through these threads, and followed them are buying that canard.

So now anyone who doesn’t share your warped, sold-to-the-highest-bidder, Racist, brain-washed ideas and believes only what your sick mind thinks that you are the Chosen One as the “BEARER-OF-THE-TRUTH” should be kicked out and does not love this country—Did Sarah Palin Knight you as One of the few, chosen True Patriots??
I don’t need to use the Race Card, little one—-You have been dealing it from the bottom of the deck for months—-Your so called love of country resides not in your heart, little one, but in your wallet—

Only the members of Congress who post on this forum—The Committees version is still being revised and discussed by our elected officials—-How many PROPOSED bills have you seen before the finished product??

With your inside connections I’m sure you will explain it all to us as soon as it is approved for vote—
