Institutional amnesia: Charlottesville City Government “forgets” Memorial Day
In a shameful exhibition of disdain for America’s war dead, Charlottesville City Government was officially unrepresented at Monday’s Memorial Day Ceremony on the grounds of the Albemarle County Office Building, McIntire Road.
The event, sponsored by Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 1847 (headquartered in Charlottesville) is an annual tradition held on this date, at this time [...]
Dems, Dems everywhere, but not a voice to speak: Young Democrats AWOL from Schilling Show
Following months of spotty attendance and multiple abrupt cancellations, the Virginia Young Democrats (VAYD) have “pulled the plug” on their scheduled appearances on WINA’s The Schilling Show.
The longstanding monthly segment featured a representative from the Jefferson Area Young Republicans (who never missed a date) squaring-off against a member of the VAYD in an hour-long, issues-oriented [...]
Daily Perriello: “Lefty” McNeill misreports liberal protest at Congressman’s office
As a news source, the Daily Progress often is not to be trusted, especially when neo-socialist writer Brian “Lefty” McNeill is behind the pen.
Regular readers of the paper are familiar with McNeill’s liberal slant, but most do not have the means to fact-check his frequent “news-itorials,”—put forth by his publication as straight news.
In delayed coverage [...]
Left is right, Right is wrong: Street theatre and protesters in Perriello’s parking lot
In an amazing turnabout of tolerance, more than 20 left-wing protesters from the Charlottesville Center for Peace and Justice (CCPJ) were allowed to congregate, mill and perform (anti-Bush!) “street theatre” (see video and photos below) in the parking lot of Democrat Congressman Tom Perriello’s Charlottesville office, Wednesday, May 19, 2010, without complaint.
This, on the heels [...]
Video vilification: David Brown’s bullying pulpit
Time and time again, citizens have bemoaned abusive reception at the hands of Democrat Charlottesville City Councilors during meetings both public and private. And over the years, many residents—Democrats and Republicans alike—who may on occasion disagree with Council, have stopped attending or speaking-out at City Council meetings, fearful of a public tongue-lashing by bumptious and [...]
TKO: Perriello vs. Del Rosso on health care reform
On April 21, 2010, after an 18 month absence, Congressman Tom Perriello returned to the “ring” (aka The Schilling Show), this time to debate a 5th district constituent, Michael Del Rosso, on the process, merits, and constitutionality of nationalized health care legislation—for which the Congressman proudly voted.
Listeners may be frustrated by Tom’s elusiveness: using “stick [...]

Hail to the Chief: President Obama supplants Bill of Rights in Virginia middle school
In America, and by design, “public” schools slowly have morphed into “government” schools—eschewing sovereignty through promotion of the neo-Marxist/Socialist agenda over American principles founded upon individual liberty.
This disquieting photo (see below), taken inside the office at Peabody Middle School in Petersburg, Virginia, subtly exemplifies artifacts of subversive educational indoctrination, and perhaps, institutional inscience.
The photograph shows [...]
Free speech: Liberal hippie goes ballistic at Charlottesville Tax Day Tea Party
The Jefferson Area Tea Party’s 2010 Tax Day Tea Party event was a colorful affair—with homemade signs, flags and bright attire, it was a perfect slice of American patriotism.
But the color turned “blue” when leftist”Henry Lee” tipped his teacup. The angry liberal took great offense at a conservative (Rob Schilling) daring to wear long hair, [...]
Government school failure: Indoctrinated Albemarle schoolgirl solicits tax increase
Central Virginia’s Albemarle County is a municipality like many others across the United States: It is relatively affluent and it spends an inordinate amount of confiscated citizen wealth (i.e. taxes) on funding government schools.
A recent series of public hearings on the Albemarle County budget brought forward a surprising number of local residents and government school [...]
