As for your link....it's wrong again. I'm not IN Washington County....

As for the 'SW regional jail'....THIS is the breakdown, and jails aren't even mentioned.

SOUTHWEST VIRGINIA REGIONAL JAIL AUTHORITY $3,858,134 State Fiscal Stabilization Fund (SFSF) - Government Services, Recovery Act State Fiscal Stabilization Fund (SFSF) - Government Services, Recovery Act To support public safety and other government services, which may include assistance for elementary, secondary education and public institutions of hihigher education (IHEs), and fo...

Your FIRST link stated that VA was getting $695M for funding of highway money to improve our transportation system. THOSE shovel ready jobs never appeared and the money was diverted elsewhere. YOU decided to divert to the jail money....which wasn't used for jails at all, but rather PROGRAMS including educational and school districts.

Get it right or stop bothering with your blather...........

RE: I've heard worse from liberals, JP.........

So you also think Trump is a pig...but the Tea Party supports him...and you are a member of the Tea Party...so you support a pig.

Of course YOU didn't say he was a pig...you just said Dems have called him worse.

First you ask if I also think Trump is a pig and since the Tea Party supports him, I support a pig..........THEN you turn around and say that I DIDN'T say he was a pig. Which is it, JP?

Yes, Dems have called him worse.......however, I wasn't referring to the name calling that Dems have used against just Trump.....they use worse terms for ANYBODY who disagrees with them and their agendas.

RE: You have established Republicans (Rubio/Bush)
Feb 12, 2016 11:06AM PST
You have established Republicans (Rubio/Bush) and Democrats (Hillary pretending to be both establishment and far left)), you have far left radical Dems (Sanders and Warren and DiBlazio types), and you have the Tea Party outsider types (Cruz for sure, Trump maybe).

Who are you supporting? The field is narrowing your "choices" are dwindling.

FOUR groups and not one appeals to you?

Cat got your tongue?
