CARMA PRESIDENT ’S LETTER
Dear CARMA Members and other Honorable Conservative Gentlemen,
Please join us and bring your buddies to our monthly CARMA luncheons and events. We have a new reservation procedure. Register early for our August 20 Fat Tuna luncheon by emailing our Treasurer Rudy Knepper at: rudeyes45@gmail.com. Reservations require an email to Rudy. Pay at the room entrance. Guest Speaker will be Congressman Rob Wittman.
For 25 years, CARMA has had great fun-filled informative monthly luncheons with speakers on various topics such as: local, state and national politics, health care, history, local government operations and technology. Our local office holders and candidates and other interesting speakers are always on our schedule. Interesting open discussions continue. CARMA donates to Republican candidates smartly.
We also meet-up often on weekends to talk politics with great insightful conversation and wisdom, some beer, tea, soda and delicious food. Most attendees don’t drink beer. The happy hours are social and we are watching our waistlines. Families are welcomed. Contact me with a meet location suggestion.
Here are some good events that just occurred:
Tuesday, May 12 at 5:00. The JCC BOS had a public meeting to discuss the upcoming county property taxes, restaurant tax increases that they mislabel as decreases…also the event admissions tax. Our local Republicans, restaurant workers and several newspaper and web postings are influencing the tax and spend Democrats on the Board. We must vote those supervisors out ASAP.
Sunday, May 17 at 1:00 The WJCCRC had a great fundraiser at Williamsburg National Golf Course. It is called the “Just Right Party”, an annual event. The guest speakers were Congressman Wittman, Senator McDougle, and Senator Diggs.
Tuesday each week The Breakfast Club meets at Sandy’s Pancakes every Tuesday, 8:00-9:30 am.
After the horrible April 21 redistricting referendum that was rejected by the Virginia Supreme Court, and the SCOTUS, the Virginia Dims will continue to try to devalue our lives and steal our liberties as they try to amend the state constitution to guarantee abortion access and gay marriage. More gun ownership restrictions have already been passed. Hopefully, the US Supreme Court will say that these are unconstitutional. The AR rifle and home possession are their main targets.
The Dumbocrats will eventually increase the power of the unions and oppose the National Right to Work. Virginia businesses will leave and close. The commercial climate will be degraded. The Dims promised “affordability” last fall when they ran for state offices. What a joke! Biggest lie this year. Please contact our local Dim officials and ask for details about their plans and how these expanded programs will be funded. Follow lis.virginia.gov and www.VPAP.org. Governor Spamburger and Delegate Anderson are very disappointing and losing support every week.
I must comment about President Trump and his haters. I tell them that I am super glad that he closed the borders, reduced crime and murder rates nationwide, revitalized our military, lowered taxes for all worker levels, brought in hundreds of billions of dollars in corporate investments and wiped out the evil and dangerous terrorism sponsor Iran. Then I ask them why they are against those accomplishments.
A new program…CARVA... is a new donation program, CARVA, which stands for Colonial Area Republican Victory Alliance is active on this website. It was inspired and designed by CARMA Treasurer, Rudy Knepper. We want hundreds of donors, males and females alike, to donate $5 or $10 each month automatically. We can raise thousands of dollars, which will really help our candidates, especially Congressman Rob Wittman and any new ones. The annual CARMA bundling project will also continue with a different format. Please contact Treasurer Knepper at 804-210-0822 rudeyes45@gmail.com for information, and you can view more information by clicking the CARVA button at the top of this page.

I really admired Senator Barry Goldwater from Arizona, he was an Air Force General hawk who also made great observations about our county. Here are two of his quotes:
“Throughout history, government has proved to be the chief instrument for thwarting man’s liberty. The government represents power in the hands of some men to control and regulate the lives of other men. And power, as Lord Acton said, corrupts men. ‘Absolute power,’ he added, ‘corrupts absolutely.’
“We have forgotten that a society progresses only to the extent that it produces leaders that are capable of guiding and inspiring progress. And we cannot develop such leaders unless our standards of education are geared to excellence instead of mediocrity. “
Respectfully from:
Terry Ricks, CARMA President

Annoy a liberal - get a job, succeed and be happy!
Democrats want more socialism and control.
Republicans want more capitalism and freedom.
The problem with political jokes is too many get elected.
REMEMBER PRESIDENT JOHN F. KENNEDY’S URGING…
“ASK NOT WHAT YOUR COUNTRY CAN DO FOR YOU…
ASK WHAT YOU CAN DO FOR YOUR COUNTRY”
