"Well as most fo you know, I mailed a proposal to the Governor's office here in Virginia. Here's the response letter I got today:

Here's a copy of the actual letter. I blacked out some information for security purposes:

Here's some contact info about my delegate and the senator's office:

They didn't give me an address for my congressman. Just his name and which party he belongs to.
Now for a little bit of bad news. The senator that they recomended contacting in this letter gives new meaning to the term bone dry. He use to go to my church years ago and opposes alcohol in any way shape or form. Wether or not he's still that way is indeed unknown, but I feel that you guys should know this up front."

"Knightmare,
It is for sure that they at least read your letter. We know there are some tea totalers out there. Stress the potential jobs and businesses to be created by legalization. Thanks for sharing Alli"

Not to worry Alli. It's better to try and fail than to never try at all and fail becuase of it. I was just letting people know that there's a good chance that this person won't do anything. That doesn't mean I won't send the proposal to them now.

Our Governor Bentley is a Baptist Preacher and he signed the legislation to legalize brewing our own beer, so don't assume defeat before you try!
Many of our politicians are worried about their future and now might be the time to put new ideas in front of them!
