Relief for commuters on Route 7 and Waxpool!

ANNOUNCEMENT


Traffic Relief for Commuters on Route 7 and Waxpool Road

Loudoun County is on the verge of fixing two of its biggest traffic problems: tie-ups on Waxpool Road and Route 7.

Senator Black has been working with Supervisor Shawn Williams, the Secretary of Transportation, the Commonwealth Transportation Board, and Manager Mike Smith of Kincora Development to obtain an $80 million bank loan from the Virginia Transportation Infrastructure Bank (VTIB).

If the loan application is approved at the CTB's June 8th meeting, that loan will fully fund completion of Gloucester Parkway and Pacific Boulevard in Loudoun County.

This project will shorten the commutes of more motorists in Loudoun County than any other transportation projects under consideration today.

The two principal east-west corridors in Loudoun County are Route 7 and Waxpool Road. These roads carry approximately 73,000 and 45,000 cars each day respectively. Both roads become congested during peak hours. Gloucester Parkway is a third east-west corridor which, like Route 7 and Waxpool Road, connects to the highly-effective Route 28 corridor which carries traffic north and south.

Since it runs midway between Route 7 and Waxpool, Gloucester's completion will relieve enormous congestion on both roads. For example, Waxpool alone carries 45,000 vehicles daily on a four to six lane road with capacity ranging form 40,000 to 60,000 vehicles per day. During peak hours, vehicles experience significant delay on this corridor. By 2030, the road will carry about 80,000 vehicles per day unless Gloucester Parkway and Pacific Boulevard are completed.

Much of Gloucester Parkway is already complete. However, there is a gap between Gloucester Parkway and Route 28 that must be finished. Once this is done, Gloucester, which runs between Route 7 to the north and Waxpool Road to the south, will draw traffic from both roads, relieving congestion on the entire road network. Once completed, Gloucester Parkway will have ample excess capacity to handle overflow from Route 7 and Waxpool Road.

Pacific Boulevard runs north and south, parallel to Route 28. Years ago, Senator Black introduced legislation that allowed construction of the Route 28 Freeway. At that time, our CTB member, Hobie Mitchel, along with Senator Black, committed to completing two access roads, Pacific on the west side and Atlantic on the east side. Those roads were to parallel the limited-access Route 28 Freeway to allow local traffic to flow freely without clogging the Greenway. This project will help to complete the original plan for Route 28.

With the help of VTIB, completion of these projects will be a transportation planner's dream. We have worked closely with Mr. Michael Scott of Kincora, the developer of this project, with members of the Board of Supervisors, and with other transportation officials, all of whom anticipate a major commercial boon to the state from improving traffic flow in this area.

Senator Black has strongly urged approval of Kincora's loan application. It is his hope that this project is completed for the sake of commuters in the 13th Senate District.

Sincerely,

Chris Lore


Legislative Aide
13th District of Virginia

[Peninsula-Patriots] Fwd: Radical Groups Donate to Cucinnelli

Dear Mr. Cuccineli --
    As one of your conservative supporters, I am greatly distressed to learn of your endorsement of "David' Ramadan in his run for delegate and of your acceptance of contributions from Muslim Brotherhood-associated organizations and individuals (See below).  Domestic Islamization is the most serious threat America faces today and for the foreseeable future.  It is a slow, subtle form of jihad with the ultimate goal of supplanting our Constitution with Sharia Law.   Accepting contributions from Muslim organizations obligates you to support their agendas and candidates.  I urge you to become better educated regarding this threat.  I think the you will act differently.  Please advise me if the email below is in error.

Very Sincerely,
Ralph Williams

Businesses tied to the Muslim Brotherhood have made contributions to Cuccinelli and others in both Republican and Democrat parties.  Please scroll down to see the thousands accepted by the Cuccinelli campaign.

State Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli endorsed (Imad David) Ramadan (running for delegate) on the very day he went to court last week to defend against a lawsuit claiming he did not legally reside in the 87th district and sent a lawyer from his office to quash a subpoena from Ramadan's opponents that would have made public the results of an investigation by the Commonwealth Attorney regarding Ramadan's legal residence.

Cuccinelli, a darling of conservatives, has taken close to $20,000 from businesses run by prominent Muslim activists tied to the SAFA Group and other alleged Muslim Brotherhood affiliates targeted by the FBI's Greenquest investigation after the 9/11 attacks. A few examples are here, here, here, and here. (frontpage.com/2011/09/26/grover-norquists-new-muslim-protege)

[Peninsula-Patriots] Rising Electricty Prices

Please take a couple of minutes to write your senators. This site makes it extremely easy to do so. Maybe when people see their electric bills triple they may question why they did not oppose the lie of man made global warming. Carbon emissions have very little to do with global warming. It has been proven to be caused by sun spot activity.

Dear Friend,
 
I hope you will take a few minutes to read the article below on how President Obama and his Environmental Protection Agency have a full-blown War on Coal and how these over the top, burdensome regulations will continue to drive up the costs of electricity for consumers.


Obama's war on coal hits your electric bill

 
Published May 22, 2012
 
Obama's War on Coal has already taken a remarkable toll on coal-fired power plants in America.  
 
Last week the U.S. Energy Information Administration reported a shocking drop in power sector coal consumption in the first quarter of 2012. Coal-fired power plants are now generating just 36 percent of U.S. electricity, versus 44.6 percent just one year ago.  
 
It's the result of an unprecedented regulatory assault on coal that will leave us all much poorer.
 
Last week PJM Interconnection, the company that operates the electric grid for 13 states (Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, New Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia and the District of Columbia) held its 2015 capacity auction. These are the first real, market prices that take Obama's most recent anti-coal regulations into account, and they prove that he is keeping his 2008 campaign promise to make electricity prices "necessarily skyrocket."
 
The market-clearing price for new 2015 capacity - almost all natural gas - was $136 per megawatt. That's eight times higher than the price for 2012, which was just $16 per megawatt. In the mid-Atlantic area covering New Jersey, Delaware, Pennsylvania, and DC the new price is $167 per megawatt. For the northern Ohio territory served by FirstEnergy, the price is a shocking $357 per megawatt.
 
Why the massive price increases? Andy Ott from PJM stated the obvious: "Capacity prices were higher than last year's because of retirements of existing coal-fired generation resulting largely from environmental regulations which go into effect in 2015." Northern Ohio is suffering from more forced coal-plant retirements than the rest of the region, hence the even higher price.
 
These are not computer models or projections or estimates. These are the actual prices that electric distributors have agreed to pay for new capacity. The costs will be passed on to consumers at the retail level.
 
House Energy and Power Subcommittee Chairman Ed Whitfield (R-Ky.) aptly explained: "The PJM auction forecasts a dim future where Americans will be paying more to keep the lights on. We are seeing more and more coal plants fall victim to EPA's destructive regulatory agenda, and as a result, we are seeing more job losses and higher electricity prices."

The only thing that can stop this massive price hike now is an all-out effort to end Obama's War on Coal and repeal this destructive regulatory agenda.
 
The Senate will have a critical opportunity to do just that when it votes on stopping Obama's most expensive anti-coal regulation sometime in the next couple of weeks. The vote is on the Inhofe Resolution, S.J. Res 37, to overturn the so-called Utility MACT rule, which the EPA itself acknowledges is its most expensive rule ever.
 
This vote is protected from filibuster, and it will take just 51 votes to send a clear message to Obama that his War on Coal must end.  
 
Of course, Obama could veto the resolution and keep the rule intact, although that would force him to take full political responsibility for the massive impending jump in electricity prices.
 
I have a form set up at www.WarOnCoal.com to make it easy to contact your senators on this crucial issue.
 
Phil Kerpen is president of American Commitment and author of "Democracy Denied."

[Peninsula-Patriots] Re: FW: Please send this to your email group: Survey about Term Limiting Congress

Patriot Friends - I was asked to forward this survey to Peninsula Patriots. It appears to have originated with Rep. Scott Rigell. It doesn't really say who, other than Rigell might be interested in the results. I would suggest that you forward your responses to Scott Rigell and perhaps also to your own Congressman. Seems as though it would be as effective to pick up the phone and call one of the offices listed at the bottom of the form if you are so inclined  [Are other people as curious as I am about what will come of this input???] ~ Sue Sherrill

 

Dear Fellow Conservatives,

Please send this to your email group: Survey about Term Limiting Congress.

Scott needs to hear an OVERWHELMING response in support of term limits !!

Seeking "The Wisdom of the District"

 

Currently, the Constitution allows for unlimited terms for Representatives in the House and for Senators. I personally believe that term limits would benefit the country (and have pledged to serve no more than six terms, or 12 years, if I had the privilege to do so), but there is a robust debate on the merits of Congressional term limits. What do you think? Should there be a constitutional amendment to term limit all House Members?

( ) Yes. Term limits are the best way to end 'careerism' public service. People in Washington should 'serve and go home.'

( ) Yes, term limits sound like a good idea, but the limit should span several decades so Members can get real work accomplished.

( ) No, I don't believe term limits are a good idea, but I do support extending the terms of Representatives from 2 year to 4 year terms in order to decrease continuous campaigning.

( ) No. Term limits are unconstitutional and the voters should be left to decide when a Member's career is over.

( ) No. We need experienced, qualified legislators in Congress who know the issues and know the process. Term limiting Members would prevent skilled legislators from helping the country.

( ) I have another answer.

DONNA HOLT for NATIONAL COMMITTEEWOMAN to RNC From VIRGINIA! VOTE at the STATE CONVENTION!

Posted on 16 May 2012.

Each state has the right to select three representatives to the Republican National Committee (Yes, theone that condemned and exposed Agenda 21!) and one must be a male and one must be female.  The female one is the National Committeewoman.  (I think the party chair also sits on the RNC.)

I am pleased to announce that our very one Donna Holt (the one who fought Agenda 21, Sandy?  Yes that one!) is running for National Committeewoman.  We need to try our very best to be at the state convention (if an elected delegate of course) to vote Donna Holt to the RNC!

[Peninsula-Patriots] Red State Article on Senate Race

Radtke Vs Allen Vs Marshall Vs Jackson = Spoiler = Allen = Tim Kaine as Our Next Governor

Posted by Kurt Feigel   // May 22, 2012   // 0 Comments

At the 5th District Republican convention lots of people spoke about "Governor Allen This" and "Governor Allen That" but not one speaker including his own wife ever touted his Senate Record. Maybe because it's abysmal? Everyone I've met who is honest says "I love Governor George Allen but not Senator George Allen" and often when people are introducing him they say "Governor Allen" even though we hold no titles of nobility here in America. And if we did wouldn't the most recent be the title we'd retain?

There are 4 candidates in this race. Did you know that?

If we look at money and grass roots support there are only 2. Radtke and Allen. Many of the Allenites are establishment trolls that would support Lucifer if he had an "R" next to his name, as such we don't have to worry about them. Not really. Because if by a stroke of providence we were to get an alternative they would ultimately come around.

The problem we face in Virginia is that we have a lot of voters that refuse to play the lesser of 2 evils game anymore. There are just enough that while they might vote for Romney, they will skip Allen out of spite or to send a message. This is due to the likes of Daniel Cortez and others creating fake Tea Party groups and stickers and saying stupid things like "George Allen was tea party before there was a tea party…"

What we need is a principled candidate we can get behind. That leaves us with 3 other options. If we look at money within those three and grassroots support as our only 2 factors of choice, and ignore the cult of political personality, then Jamie Radtke is the clear choice. I'm not just saying this because I've given her money. Or because I've endorsed her. Or because my Tea Party and others have done so. Or because I'm going door to door campaigning for her. No!

Bishop Jackson is a great guy but the reality is he has none of the above taking place. Much of the same can be said of Bob Marshall. When we look at Virginia politics marshall is a household name among the Liberty minded voters. Yet here we are 4 months down the road and Marshall is still stalled out.

Marshall keeps bragging about his polling, but he should be very embarrassed. Marshall has been a delegate from the densely populated Northern Virginia area for 20 years. He also ran for the United States Senate a few years ago. He kept saying that if he entered the race, it would be a huge "game changer." Yet his poll numbers have NOT MOVED from over a year ago when multiple polling outfits checks his polls for U.S. Senate when it was rumored he would get in the race. Now he has been in the race for four months and his numbers still haven't moved. Worse yet, with all his experience and notoriety as a 20-year NOVA delegate, running for statewide office, and all the controversial news he has made over the years, he is pretty much equal with Jamie Radtke in this race, who has only been at it for a year. Nothing to brag about. In fact, I think this is a clear signal he is a sinking ship, going nowhere.
Worse than that, if his candidacy is a game changer it's only as a spoiler. His remaining in this race could stop any chance we have to stop Allen. If that happens I'm convinced that Tim Kaine will be our next senator. God help America with that man in the Senate.
Jackson and Marshall should drop out and serve liberty driven conservatism by getting behind Jamie Radtke. It's hard to imagine they will. They are in the political echo chamber where they yell "I'm awesome" and hear back "YES YOU ARE, KEEP IT UP".
