How Virginia's Congressmen Voted ON GIVING FEDERAL EMPLOYEES A 30 BILLION $$ RAISE

from Eric Cantors website..

As part of his FY 2011 Budget submission President proposed raising federal civilian pay by 1.4% beginning in January of next year. This will be on top of the 2.0% raise federal civilian employees received this past January, the 3.9% raise they received the previous January, and the 3.5% raise they received the January before that. Freezing federal civilian pay at the current level for one year would save approximately $2 billion next year and $30 billion over ten years.

Taking some Time Off

Summer is here and unless a Tea Party Rally is organized or needed I'll be taking some time off from blogging and politics. November is coming up and we all need to be refreshed and ready to roll!

Obama's approval numbers keep dropping and he and the socialists in his party have been somewhat neutered from advancing their agenda.

If you live in the 11th congressional district, please don't forget to vote in the Republican Primary on June 8th
I support Keith Fimian and believe he is the best candidate
Pat Herrity is running against Keith
Either of these candidates will be a huge improvement over that corrupt far left liberal Gerry Connolly.

I will be posting sporadically, so feel free to check in.
