Florida Progressives Agenda 2014
I’m often critical of Gov. Rick Scott but there's one good thing I can say about him: he's done more than anyone to focus Floridians on the need for a big change in the direction of our state. The question is, when Floridians turn to progressives for answers to our most pressing problems now and in the years ahead, will we be ready with answers? Join progressive activists from around the state on Saturday, August 24th in West Palm Beach for the Agenda 2014 Conference, as we assemble a progressive agenda to move Florida forward.......here

Did They Really Say That?
St. Petersburg mayoral candidate Kathleen Ford told a black audience at the Bethel Community Baptist Church that she once made potato salad and served it in Campbell Park back in the 1990s. This was after she was asked what has she done for the poor residents in Midtown.....more
Looks like she is after Ted Yoho's spot as Florida's Dumbest Politician. And while we are on the other side of the great pond, Right Wing extraordinaire David McKalip calls local blogger Peter Schorsch a"political terrorist. At Pushing Rope, Here is what Mitch Perry had to say.

Florida's Indian River Lagoon
Once a lush and healthy estuary, the Indian River Lagoon is now an enigmatic death trap. Running along 40 percent of Florida’s Atlantic coast, the lagoon’s brackish waters harbor a mysterious killer that has claimed the lives of hundreds of manatees, pelicans, and dolphins......more
Rep. Ros-Lehtinen and Rep. Diaz-Balart
Immigration Reform is in the hands of the House of Representatives. Even though the majority of Floridians support immigration reform with a path to citizenship, we still have nothing: no bill, no vote and no progress in the House. Some parts of our state are represented by politicians that have very few immigrant or Latino constituents. In South Florida, we are lucky. We have two Representatives, Ileana Ros-Lehtinen and Mario Diaz-Balart, that have always supported immigration reform and fought to keep our families together. But now they are letting the anti-Latino and anti-Immigrant voices in their party speak louder than them and hurt any chance of immigration reform.We need them to stand up and speak louder for their people.......here

Right Wing Whack-A-Mole: Why You Cannot Change A Wingnut’s Mind
This is the core of the right wing movement: You cannot prove them wrong because they don’t care. Even when you do and they admit it, they will simply go somewhere else and tell the very same story they just admitted was false. The truth is completely irrelevant, the only thing that matters is spreading right wing propaganda......here
