Posted In: Bob McDonnell

Governor McDonnell has proposed a plan that would allow private companies to buy the naming rights to Virginia’s public roadways. The revenue generated from this plan would come from a naming fee and tolls and would go toward road maintenance. This doesn’t sound too bad, except for the tolls part of it. Nobody likes tolls, […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Oh C’mon South Carolina, Not Newt

by Chris Farmer on January 21st, 2012 at 7:20 PM
Posted In: 2012 elections, National politics, Presidential Race

Newt Gingrich? Really? C’mon. I suppose when the first in the South primary goes to a former congressman from Georgia instead of a former Governor from Massachusetts we should not be too surprised.

Posted In: 2012 elections, American History
