"If you haven’t seen our “new” blog, I invite you to visit and try out its many new features and, as always, to read and comment on recent posts of interest:
See a retired Marine teach his representative about the constitution (www.familyfoundationblog.com/?p=4157) and see that representative insult his constituents on national television (www.familyfoundationblog.com/?p=4172).
Speaking of town halls, if your representative won’t have one, host your own (www.familyfoundationblog.com/?p=4203). Our Winning Matters campaign is off to a great start (www.familyfoundationblog.com/?p=4198). Campaigns such as Winning Matters are important because they lead to real substance – for example, the Marriage Amendment came into play in a recent custody case not reported by the Mainstream Media (www.familyfoundationblog.com/?p=4164)!
Locally, read and see how some students at the University of Richmond greeted our Board and staff at our retreat yesterday (www.familyfoundationblog.com/?p=4187). Meanwhile, the VEA claims it “teaches the children,” but apparently not its political staff (www.familyfoundationblog.com/?p=4127); and, while we’ve known for sometime Jody Wagner’s had problems with numbers, she’s having trouble with words, too (www.familyfoundationblog.com/?p=4137).
In the two big stories of the summer, socialized health care and the governor’s race, and how they intersect, we have Creigh Deeds’ abortion position (www.familyfoundationblog.com/?p=4109), as well as his convoluted Marriage Amendment stance (www.familyfoundationblog.com/?p=4103); and the president defeating his own point by using an example conservatives cite all the time (www.familyfoundationblog.com/?p=4120) to illustrate government ineptitude!
Finally, the animal rights crowd may have a point. This dog would do a better job in Congress than most (www.familyfoundationblog.com/?p=4148)! As always, to keep up with the latest headlines and commentary, please visit our (almost) daily Virginia News Stand – the best Virginia news digest on the blogosphere (www.familyfoundationblog.com/?cat=3493)!"
