Virginia liberals, a group that includes many Richmond students, had two victories to celebrate after last week's election. Not only did Barack Obama win a second term as president, but he also won Virginia, a state that was considered thoroughly Republican until four years ago.
I'm not sure about you, but I was more passionate about following news of Hurricane Sandy than I have ever been about this election.
I felt my first chill in months Sunday as I walked out the door. Even though I had pulled my hoodie from its dusty corner of my closet, I was still not prepared for the blast of brisk cold.

Before I say anything else, let me make it clear: any liberal (or person) who calls himself an American should believe in the Constitution.

Liberals talk endlessly of First Amendment rights to free speech, while trying to ignore the Second Amendment. I try not to be one of those people.
For 25 years, the city of Richmond has been taking the art of Christmas decoration to a new level of tackiness. In the spirit of the holiday season, a group of families have taken on the task of decorating their houses, from lawn to roof with holiday cheer. To these dedicated Richmonders, there is no such thing as too many lights.

The University of Richmond Department of Theater and Dance presented a masterful production of Lorraine Hansberry's seminal Civil Rights-era work this past weekend, "A Raisin in the Sun".
