    Jim,

    Thanks for providing the VPOD link. I only listened long enough to hear about the Homestead Exemption issue. I now understand and appreciate why Republicans (and a few Democrats) voted against it. If a Homestead exemption is going to be enacted it should be granted accross the board. If “social engineering” (something I am not completely opposed to) is enacted it should be kept seperate from the Homestead Exemption legislation.

    There should be no reason to pollute a legislative proposal that is favored by the majority to expand capabilities that the minority favor.

    However I am going to add that if I had a vote in Richmond, I’d still hold out for protections for active duty military personnel. However it is my belief I would not have to hold out very long because I think I could convince the majority the exception was necessary once I explained why the exception was needed.
