McDonnell's Follies

Just some of the latest actions of our Governor, for your amusement.

• Pulling out of a wind energy consortium of state governors.


• Reinstating a month honoring the Confederacy. (For which he subsequently apologized, and modified the proclamation to include slavery.)


• Defending RNC Chairman Michael Steele.


• Criticizing student loan reform.


• [Update] Making it harder for people to have their voting rights restored after serving their time.

Of course, as of Tuesday afternoon there's no activity or mention on BobMcDonnell.com or the Governor's website of the worst mine disaster in a generation, happening next door, at a mine owned by a Virginia company based in Richmond itself. Of course, it couldn't happen here, right? So why say anything?
