Investigate Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi
It's bad enough Gov. Rick Scott is hard at work dismantling key consumer protections, but now he has a partner: our own Attorney General Pam Bondi. She seems to think her first duty is to protect some of Gov. Scott’s biggest corporate pals – the banks – instead of hard working Floridians. Recently Bondi fired Florida’s two leading attorneys investigating the epidemic of foreclosure fraud ravaging our communities.Sign petition
Calling on the Attorney General's Office of Inspector General to investigate Pam Bondi's actions.

Jeff Lillie says it takes about 24 hours in about a 40-step process to turn used vegetable oil into eco-friendly biodiesel that can be used in boats and cars. At age 59, he says his motive is not to get rich but to do his part to help the environment, especially the ocean.here
Feeding the Rich
A timely reminder, with numbers and visuals, that our current "debt crisis" in no way had to happen. If corporations and the rich simply paid taxes at the same rate as they did in 1961 - with Bush-era policies primarily to blame for their decline - the debt would vanish.here

Scary Sight In Plant City
Allen West thanked a gathering of Republican faithful for turning out in force to see him. He was given a super hero's welcome at the Florida Strawberry Festival grounds. West was greeted by a standing ovation as he entered the hall at the Arthur Boring Civic Center, and would get three more. It took him half an hour to take his seat as a crush of fans gathered to pump his hand and pose for photographs.

D3 Homeless Initiative
New Blogger Helping The Homeless.I'm Deputy Steven Donaldson with the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office here in Tampa, Florida. You may have heard of the homeless initiative I started just over a year ago which has recently received some media attention. We have been successful in assisting 55 homeless with housing in a years time and the effort has expanded throughout the county in three of our four districts, thus far.
I recently started a blog, D3HomelessInitiative, to promote the effort and broadcast the effort's productive results in the form of pictorials and written essays of individual stories. The Sheriff's Office has embraced the concept since it seems to have had both a quantitative and qualitative impact on the streets within our jurisdictional boundaries.
The Sheriff' Office has allowed me to work on this effort full-time and we also have two additional deputies dedicated to this cause, one each, in District I (University area) and District II (Brandon area). I work in District III (Town N' Country, Carrollwood) where the effort originated.
Thank you for your help.

Hillsborough County Corporate Welfare
Hillsborough County may pay a financial services firm more than $1 million partly to help it add workers, but partly just to stick around. If the company takes the money, it could set a new precedent for the county that - potentially - would encourage other companies to seek money for retaining workers. Traditionally, the county has given incentives for creating new jobs or luring new companies to the area.Tuesday morning, Hillsborough County Commissioners approved offering an unnamed company
an economic incentive package worth $1.2 million.

Allen West: Threat To The Gene Pool
"Allen West has a long history of outrageous comments. However, in the last two days, West has demonstrated unusually bizarre behavior - showing himself to be truly unhinged and incapable of controlling himself. As if referring to Americans who support their President as a "threat to the gene pool" wasn't bad enough, West then unleashed a peronal assult on Representative Wasserman- Schultz calling her "vile" and "despicable". He then had the audacity to label this brave elected leader who courageously shared her successful struggle with breast cancer with the nation as a "coward". Enough is enough. His conduct is unbecoming a member of Congress. He has disrespected his office
and should be censured by the House of Representatives immediately. "......Patrick Murphy
The New Mark Weaver Show
Probably on Live365, as Mark Weaver iRadio (v 2.0)"Come join me in the Green Party! Tampa Bay has a good chapter. Remember, it was Bob Graham who was architect of the “Out of Iraq, into Afghanistan” strategy when he was chair of the Intelligence Committee. Kendrick Meek was pushing Obama to send more troops to Afghanistan even before Obama did it. Debbie Wasserman Schultz pushes a very hard line on the Cuba embargo and travel ban, even worse than Obama. And she backs Netanyahu down the line whatever evil he commits, including the continuing land thefts from the Palestinians. She’s pushing for the next war, against Iran, when the time comes.
All these people are rightwingers posing as liberals.
The Democratic Party, just more war and injustice and selling out the middle class. Stop promoting, financing and voting for the Democratic Party. Turn your wasted, manipulated, self-damaging energies to genuine individual Left candidates and issues.".......Mark Weaver
Should i change my slogan to "Watching The (Democrat) Right Wing In Tampa Bay?"
