Attention Virginia voters: Bob McDonnell should scare the daylights out of you! He will work hard to undo everything our state has accomplished. Mark Warner started Virginia’s “Renaissance,” and Deeds will continue moving it forward. Thanks to their leadership, Forbes named Virginia the “Best State for Doing Business” four years running! McDonnell claims he will be a jobs governor, but has never created even one job! He also consistently opposed funding the Governors Opportunity Fund – legislation sponsored by Deeds that created 80,000 jobs. He embraces the Dark Ages of Gilmore (a time that ran our state into the ground financially and socially) and the fiscal policies of Bush (see current economic disaster).
McDonnell wants you to believe that he is moderate, but McDonnell is an agent of the far right extreme – he’s a disciple of Pat Robertson’s fanaticism! He not only earned his masters degree from Robertson’s university (where he wrote his misogynistic thesis at the tender age of 34), he also served on the Board of Directors, upholding the university’s employment policy of “equal opportunities for men and women, consistent with Biblical teachings that men are the head of households.” He didn’t denounce this policy until he hit the campaign trail. He is anti-worker, pro-big corporation and anti-choice – even in cases of rape or incest. He would use the Pennsylvania model for part of his transportation plan – imposing tolls (Republican-speak for taxes) on the Virginia/North Carolina border.
Another part of his plan is to privatize ABC stores – the amount of underage sales would be one problem, but then how do we replace that revenue source? All of this means McDonnell would govern using Robertson’s social agenda and Bush’s economic policies – God help us!
If you don’t get out and vote, you wasted your time and energy on electing Warner and Obama. Vote for honesty, integrity and a real Virginia born and bred candidate, who will keep Virginia moving forward – vote Creigh Deeds!
