    Thank God for Checks and Balances. The General Assembly did not have the political fortitude to find a constitutional way to deal with the issue of our decaying state transportation infastructure.

    This will force them to find (still searching after ten plus years now) the most appropriate (perhaps unpalatable from a political perspective) solution that all Virginians can live with.

    Now if only we can get the U.S. Supreme Court to weigh in on some of the unconstitutional congressional budgeting and lawmaking that takes place at the federal level - we might actually make some gains at restoring our great Republic.

    Maybe the great Commonwealth of Virginia can be a ground zero of sorts for restoring the Checks and Balances that are to have been the inherent safe guards that were built into our representative republic so that is can be sustained. More and more, rogue and statist legislators and government executives have enacted law after law and policy after policy that has trampled on Constitutional law - both at the state and federal level.

    I applaud any judiciary that is willing to independently and objectively defend the Constitution (and the people) upon which its government is set to operate.
