DNC, you lie: Student stands by Kaine U.S. Senate story
A national uproar ensued after University of Richmond student, Gray Delany, called WINA’s The Schilling Show on Monday, to report some breaking news. Delany conveyed that former Governor Tim Kaine reportedly told students in his leadership studies class that he was going to run for the U.S. Senate seat currently held by Democrat Jim Webb. [...]
Overpaid and underqualified: $93k Charlottesville spokesman are grammatically challenged [sic]
With all of the talk across America about overpaid government employees, we have a prime example of outrageous compensation excess right here in Charlottesville: City Communications Director, Ric Barrick. Expectations for Charlottesville City employees may be low, but at a salary of $93k per year (plus benefits), grammar-checking for important official dispatches should be included [...]
The return of Two-faced Tom: Perriello flees from, embraces toxic national Democrats
If you read the September 19, 2010 Daily Progress, you might be convinced that embattled Democrat Congressman Tom Perriello (VA-05) is standing by his man—President Obama—through thick and through thin, in good times and in bad, in sickness and in health. Writer, Ray Reed, portrays Perriello as a loyal and steadfast foot soldier, marching in [...]
Lefty’s lovefest continues: “Timid Tom” Perriello silent on illegal immigration?
Brian “Lefty” McNeill’s “thing” for Democrat Congressman Tom Perriello continues to threaten the communication credibility of his journalistic habitat, aka the Daily Progress. In the 8/22/10 edition of the Daily Perriello, McNeill pens a feature story on Virginia’s three 5th District Congressional candidates and their respective positions on the 14th Amendment. Amazingly, the slanted spread [...]
Perriello sign-ban shot down: King Tom’s fascist tactic taken from SEIU playbook
The Rutherford Institute, yesterday, strongly condemned Congressman Tom Perriello’s Town Hall “sign-ban” as “an act of outright censorship” that comes “at the expense of his constituents’ First Amendment rights to freedom of expression.” Within hours of Rutherford releasing their statement along with a letter (which threatened legal action) sent to directly to “King Tom” Perriello, [...]
Lefty loves Tom Perriello: McNeill, too, slants the news
Words are powerful. Words can be used to clarify; words can be used to obfuscate. When perusing the daily newspaper, one should not need to parse. Sadly, when Brian “Lefty” McNeill is at the pen, every printed word must be run through an objectivity strainer, and the spaces between the lines, as well, must be [...]
Bigmouth strikes again: Perriello lackey caught dissing Clark on live web stream
In an extremely embarrassing case of “loose lips” syndrome, an unknown female staffer—apparently in the employ of Democrat Congressman Tom Perriello—launched into a post-event screed, including a profanity-laced evaluation of independent Jeff Clark’s performance in the Senior Statesmen of Virginia debate, held in Charlottesville today. While the anti-Clark invective was not itself recorded by The [...]
Jawing with Jay: Rob Schilling interviewed on religion, politics and faith
Charlottesville, Virginia, where “Democrat” is the religion and government is the “church”—a likely place for a frank discussion of faith’s intersection with politics? That depends on who’s talking. In this case Rob Schilling is invited to examine the hot-button topic on CBS 19’s weekly series, Jay James on Faith. In this brief segment, which originally [...]
Phoenix rising: Banned Albemarle high school editorial re-published
Ellie Leech’s editorial, Student’s P.E. Groans Might Be Warranted, was too hot for publication in Albemarle High School’s (AHS) student newspaper, The Revolution. The controversial piece was printed, but the papers reportedly were destroyed prior to distribution, following complaints from some AHS physical education teachers. The subject of today’s lead editorial in the Daily Progress, [...]
Open trough: Charlottesville City’s $360M “free” lunch
Charlottesville City’s Director of Disinformation, Ric Barrick, is at it again. This time he’s promising something that never has existed: a “free” lunch. Barrick deceptively headlined his June 18, 2010 press release (see below), “Charlottesville Parks Department to Provide Free Lunch this Summer,” assuming that media outlets would “swallow” and “spit out whole” his pablum.
