Any of 3 wld mke a good govs-but I decided Deeds most in Warnr/Kaine mold. He’s groundd yet savvy. Wsn’t his tweets, I’m musclly illitrte.

By From http://fred2blue.com • May 17th, 2009 • Category: Blog Entries.Local, Media.Local

Sorry local media. Now that Catherine Crabill is the GOP nominee in the 99th House District, you can no longer ignore a story first uncovered by a <gasp!> blogger. Not that the Free Lance-Star will bother giving credit to Timothy Watson, who first uncovered Crabill’s crazy rant. Heck, it’s common for a newspaper, even one as […]



***BREAKING: 99TH DISTRICT GOP NOMINATES CRABILL***

Introducing the American Energy Freedom Center. Because energy lobbyists make tons of money, and papa needs a new pair of shoes. Oh, and for our children. Can’t forget them.

Gov. Timothy M. Kaine is urging President Barack Obama to issue an executive order to speed up the Chesapeake Bay cleanup.
At a private meeting Wednesday in Washington, Kaine delivered a draft order that he wrote to Obama’s new chief of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Lisa Jackson. It calls for more federal attention, money and […]



When Will the Media Leave the Real Reporting to Bloggers?

By From http://fred2blue.com • May 11th, 2009 • Category: Blog Entries.Local, Media.Local
