Clay Duke For Vendetta

"My testament: Some people (the government sponsored media) will say I was evil, a monster (V) . . . no . . . I was just born poor in a country where the Wealthy manipulate, use, abuse, and economically enslave 95 percent of the population. Rich Republicans, Rich Democrats . . . same-same . . . rich . . . they take turns fleecing us . . . our few dollars . . . pyramiding the wealth for themselves.".....Clay Duke

WMNF Antenna Move

Because of a required tower construction project in January at our transmitter site in Riverview, WMNF will be operating at much lower power, reaching far fewer listeners. This work may cause us to be at low power for several weeks to a month or more.

Republican Mark Sharpe

Mr. Sharpe, i thought you guys were for less government? I see the homeless everyday. I give them money, take their picture, and post them on this blog. I agree something has to be done.
But not what you are proposing.

"My question to Mark Sharpe and his supporters. Why is your solution to create more laws, criminalize more behavior, and increase the burden on an understaffed and underfunded police department, instead of looking to municipalities that have actually implemented programs that reduce costs and get the chronic homeless off the streets?".....Re/Creating Tampa
