GOP Family Values

 A wife and three grown children in St. Petersburg

and a mistress and a new born baby in
 Washington DC.

A married man has an affair with his secretary. He likes it so much he wants to keep her on as his mistress, they even have a child together while he is still married. The wife tells him no and she wants a divorce. Then he has no further contact with the children from that marriage after 1986. Less than a year later, he was awarded the Family and Freedom Award from the Christian Voice, the nation's largest conservative religious lobby.
 He received the award because of
how he voted on "key moral issues."

The Florida Charter School Scam

One of the most egregious cases of mismanagement in Florida charter school history: a public elementary school that enriched its administrators, impoverished its teachers, failed its students
and collapsed in disgrace......more>

Hanan Islam and her company, Art of Management, fired teachers, starved classrooms of supplies and distributed books and pamphlets written by Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard.
For months, Islam evaded warnings and visits from Pinellas County school officials, all the while steering more than $100,000 from the school to her private business accounts.

A New Breed Of Cuban-American

For more than two decades, running for Congress in this sun-soaked capital of Cuban exiles has required two things: a Republican registration card and a hard line toward the Castro regime. And then came Joe Garcia

In a break with the exile community, Garcia campaigned in support of loosening restrictions on Cuban-Americans who want to visit relatives on the island or send them money. Since taking office, he has pushed for U.S. trials of a Cuba-developed diabetes treatment and for easing travel rules for Cuban diplomats who visit the U.S. And while Florida Republicans, including Sen. Marco Rubio, fumed when President Barack Obama shook hands with Cuban President Raul Castro last month, Garcia dismissed it as a simple courtesy.

Stop Fracking In Florida: Hydraulic Fracturing In Naples

Oil Drilling Truck Convoy headed for Naples 

One of the newest controversies in the field of oil and gas extraction is playing out in South Florida, just outside of the City of Naples.
