Got this pic of the lady working at his office before she threw me out threatening to call security. She followed me outside asking to see my drivers licence and my name. Two guys did show up on golf carts. One of them told me she wanted the pics I took inside deleted.

I started this blog back in 2003 after seeing Howard Dean's courage in trying to stop US from going to war in Iraq and bring change to the Democratic Party. Here we are in 2017. Funny how I came across these 2 articles on the same day.

Howard Dean says it’s time for his generation of the Democratic Party to move over here

Millennial voters are the future of the your party and they don't like you. Keep doing the Same Old Shit, ignore The Signs and you will keep losing. But, you should be use to that by now.

Oh and BTW what are Democrats doing supporting Trump supporters?

If the Democratic Party was an orgy, everyone would be Bi.

The Hypocrisy Of The Hillsborough County Democratic Party

The Islamic Society of Tampa Bay was kind enough to host a debate.

-----

Republican Lawrence McClure, Democrat Jose Vazquez, Libertarian Bryan Zemina and non-party-affiliated Ahmad Saadaldin are running in the election Dec. 19 to select a successor to Dan Raulerson, who stepped down from the seat in August due to health problems.

-----

The letter above was sent to the League of Women Voters for their audacity of hosting the debate at a mosque.

-----

The writer? CL Townsend, husband of the DEC Chair Ione Townsend and Jose Vazquez's campaign treasurer.

"The more my community gets involved, the more pushback we get. In. every. freaking. way. Then Democrats come kissing ass for money and votes and asking people to run as D's. And you wonder why some wont? The entire party leadership right now should be ashamed."

Tampa Mayoral Hopeful David Straz And The Bank Of Nevis

Part 1: David Straz, Tampa’s billionaire mayoral hopeful, is intentionally or not, boosting Nevis’ reputation as a safe harbor for international criminals.

----------

The Federation of St Kitts-Nevis is one of the countries blacklisted by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development for being uncooperative in the fight against tax evasion and money laundering.

----------

Straz served for several years as director of the Bank of Nevis Ltd. In its April, 2017 prospectus, the Bank of Nevis noted the David A. Straz Jr. Foundation was its second largest shareholder owning 12.60 percent of the stock.

Florida GOP You Are Being Watched

The GOP tax heist is NOT a sure thing

This bill still has TWO very important hurdles to jump.

The House and Senate passed different versions of the bill. Before a bill can go to the White House to be signed, the EXACT VERSION must pass the House and the Senate. Since the House originated this one, and passed their version first, the Senate now has to send their version back to the House who will then call a CONFERENCE COMMITTEE. This is where the differences between the House and Senate versions are theoretically ironed out until there is one bill with language the House and Senate can
agree on.

So the version that comes out of Conference Committee must be voted on AGAIN! BOTH THE HOUSE AND SENATE HAVE TO VOTE ON THE BILL AGAIN.

----------

Here is Beth's Plan:

PUT PRESSURE ON THE HOUSE MEMBERS. If they get public push-back, they may start to get nervous because EVERY SEAT in the House of Representatives is up for re-election in 2018. So any R voting for this knows s/he may face *very* angry voters in less than a year. Every horrible thing we find in the bill as we read it over the weekend can be laid right at the feet of Republicans.
