The Only Way We Will Get Out Of This Mess!

Destination of the week: Tampa Bay

With its amusement parks, golf courses, pro sports and energetic street parties, the Tampa Bay area is one of Florida’s most attractive tourist destinations. But this is a surprisingly nature-conscious metropolis for those who can look beyond the well-known mainstream attractions.

Sweep The Stain Away

The Times Recommends Valerie Goddard
Residents in central and east Tampa have suffered for years because their commissioner, Kevin White, has lost clout and authority with a torrent of shameful behavior.
Democrats have the chance to sweep the stain away with fresh, new leadership
that can put the interests of the county's poorest district back on the radar. Newcomer Valerie Goddard is the best hope for a clean break.

Looking at her pic on the Greater Phoenix Tea Party Patriots site, she looks a little brown to me.
She even has lunch at La Canasta. I know something has to be done. This just isn't the way to do it.

April Griffin for Hillsborough County School Board

April Griffin is being challenged by a right wing fundamentalist who seems about the worst kind of religious fanatic you can find. His name is Terry Kemple and he is a proud Teabagger. He is an anti-science creationist who also opposes sex-ed in schools and believes in the discredited abstinence only program. This is precisely the kind of fool we want to keep OFF our school boards.
It is exactly this kind of race that gets ignored by progressives, allowing right wing fundamentalists to extend their control.
