Late last year, a friend bought me a shirt that read “January 20,  2021 – The Beginning of a Mistake.” I never imagined how prophetic that saying would be.

This year has been a dreadful experience for our country and for Montgomery County. At the national level we had the tragic Afghanistan pull out; the invasion of our borders; the unprecedented spike in the cost of living; concerns regarding election integrity; and supply chain issues. At the local level our Democratically controlled leaders push to defund the police, sanction the teaching of CRT in our schools, impose indiscriminate masking, lockdowns and vaccine passport restrictions, while continuing their rampant spending and pushing for “Thrive 2050.”

However, I predict that 2022 will be the year of the Republican Resurgence.

If Virginia is any indication, the once elusive concept of common sense will make its way from the kitchen tables of our citizens to the voting booths. We the citizens are waking up from the “woke” nightmare to a new dawn.

Please join me and other like-minded people in support of the Montgomery County Republican Party in our quest to demand action and attention, improvement, a better environment for families, businesses, and a halt to one-party control of all power in the government of our County.

Thank you for being a great Republican and supporter of what is right. We need you. Stay safe and healthy this holiday season.

I’d love to hear from you. Send me your thought, notes, suggestions and ideas to me at [email protected]. Your thoughts and notes mean a lot and I appreciate them.
