Change Becomes Your Unwanted Friend

 Tampa Taxi Shots

was headed back to a life where so much had changed. Just eight years ago when I started the original "Tampa Taxi Shots" it was full of images of friends. Now, most of them are dead. I guess saying goodbye is a natural part of life. Security is not found in repeat motions of your ordered life. It is in knowing that is not possible and change will always be there. Smell the roses before there are no more to smell......more>

Rick Scott's Florida

According to the Times and the Miami Herald

Only a fraction of the jobs Scott can truly influence have actually come about. After pledging $266 million in Corporate Welfare (tax relief) for more than 45,000 jobs,

96 percent of the jobs Scott promised have not been created.

According to state records, 46 of the Scott’s deals — almost 14 percent — have failed, with more projects going undeveloped. Many with committed financial incentives are tied up in red tape, while other companies either closed or went bankrupt.

Rep. Alan Grayson Under Attack

The Republicans and their corporate backers spent over $5 million in sewer money to defeat me in 2010. Thanks to people like you, we won back my seat in Congress in 2012. Yet I'm sure the Republicans will try to repeat their success in 2014. But they're underestimating me, and they're underestimating you. When they attack me, they attack you. My secret weapon is you, it's us, it's everyone who is willing to stand up for justice, equality and peace. And together, we will not be cowed,

and we will not be beaten.....more>

GOP 101. How To Talk To Women

This week Politico reported that the National Republican Congressional Committee is trying to teach Republican candidates and their aides what not to say to their female opponents and constituents

We need to elect progressive champions who will stand strong for women's rights, not just rehearse soundbites. For nearly 10 years, Democracy for America has helped elect strong, progressive women -- like Elizabeth Warren -- to offices up and down the ballot. Now we need your support to elect amazing women candidates like Wendy Davis in 2014.
