December

Hi Everyone
 
Sorry for being MIA but between elections, York County trying to take my property rights and the holidays I like many others, was overloaded.
 
Right now we have nothing planned for the month of December. I will be meeting with some folks that have"volunteered" to maybe help organize and give as a little kick into the new year. If you are interested in a committee of a core position, please let me know.
 
1,Below is a rally next week in In Richmond, Trying to support a fair debate from both Republican and Democrat! We don't want the Party Bosses to decide.
2. Is an invatation to a Christmas Party at Mike Pruntry's
 
                                                                                     Dec 7 Rally at the Capitol.  
 

Why come out for a Rally at the Capitol?

 

Since we have been forced into a primary (not a convention), we are again faced with challenging the "well-known establishment candidate".  It is the weapon the Ruling Class has successfully used to remain in power for years. Challengers to the establishment have the problem of getting themselves known to the general voting public that do not keep abreast of politics until just before elections – a fact that is both real and troubling.

 

How do we activists shake up the status quo and change the dynamics? By using the media (both friendly and unfriendly) to get an alternative message out to those who would normally not be paying attention. The Media Establishment knows this. That is why they have decided 6 months prior to the actual vote to restrict their debate to their establishment candidates. Make no mistake! They know what they are doing!! So we must use their tactics to fight back.

 

Our goal must be to make the every-day Joe and Joette take note and listen now before the die is cast by the Establishment. George Allen and the Media Establishment have both given us that opportunity. Let's capitalize on it. Blog, write news releases, pump up your groups with real facts and then join us in Richmond to show we are paying attention and that the establishment is not driving the bus.

 

We will make sure the Media will be covering our rally. How could they not? This sort of contention is just what they are looking for so we need a strong showing to let them know we mean business.

We have three issues to rally for:

1.     The AP deciding our candidates – both Republican and Democrat – let's let them know how we feel about that

2.     George Allen claiming he has Tea Party Patriot support with a misleading news release

3.     Assist the Richmond Tea Party in their struggle for "equal justice under the law" as they shine the light on the decision by Richmond Mayor D. C. Jones to audit them

If not now, when? If not us, who? Let's show the establishment that business as usual is no longer business as usual. You can make a difference. Keep up with any updates by visiting NING http://vateapartypatriots.ning.com/events/allen-kaine-debate-protest and http://www.richmondteaparty.com/2011/11/update-city-of-richmond-audit-of-rtp/ for the latest news.

 

I hope to see many of you there on Pearl Harbor Day. Let's make this a day the establishment remembers for a long time.

 

Rick Buchanan

VTPP Events Chairman

 

 

 

I truly hope you all enjoyed a meaningful and fulfilling Thanksgiving! Now as we look forward to the blessed Christmas Season, I ask that you receive this invitation with the warmest regards from me to you, as this celebration is for the dedicated conservative activist working to restore our beloved nation. So if you are a leader or representative of such a group or organization, please pass this on to your membership and conservative friends. This is in appreciation for them. Thank you …

News from York County

 

Kathy Mounts recognized for 20 years of service with York County
 
November 18, 2011
 
FOR RELEASE AT WILL
 
Board of Supervisors Chairman George Hrichak recently congratulated Senior Legal Assistant Kathy Mounts on her 20 years of service with York County.
 
Mounts started with York County in 1991 as a Secretary I, where she quickly assumed responsibility for the Juvenile and Domestic Relations General District Court, primary reception, the closing of Circuit Court files, revocation of probation cases and determinations as Habitual Offender.
 
In February 1992 she was promoted to Secretary III and took over responsibility for the General District Court in addition to her other duties. In 1998 she was promoted to Legal Assistant, where she took the initiative to cross-train, learning all the functions of the other support staff in the office.
 
"Without ever having to be asked, Kathy took responsibility for taking over the duties of any of the support staff that was out of the office," said Commonwealth's Attorney Eileen Addison. "She was the first employee in the office to be qualified for and promoted to Senior Legal Assistant under the Career Ladder Plan in June of 2005."
 
Mounts was named Employee of the Quarter in 1993.
 
"Her dedication to the Commonwealth's Attorney's Office and the citizens of York County and Poquoson is unparalleled, and it has been an honor to have worked with her for these 20 years," Addison said.
