Republican Party: Bunch Of Do-Nothing, Worthless Pimps

"Keep your hands tight on your wallets – in fact, if you are a member of the Republican Party I would suggest you quit that reckless bunch of do-nothing, worthless pimps and save your soul from this joke. Join the ranks of the NPA instead." Senior Chief Geoff Ross, U.S. Navy (ret.), Navarre here
-------------------------------
Geoff Ross is a retired Senior Chief from the US Navy. He had a distinguished career and established his mark starting with being the youngest Senior Chief ever in the Navy. He is one of the staunchest defenders of our Republic and will tell anyone when they are off track and not pull any punches doing so! Honor, integrity, truth, plain spoken, and a doer are hallmarks of Senior Chief Geoff Ross. Here is another statement from Mr. Ross. 
-------------
"The US government is the most corrupt illegally operated cesspool in our history. I will stay in their faces until these people are jailed, arrested, prosecuted, exposed and taken out of office.! Republicans or Democrats. I do not discriminate." Senior Chief Geoff Ross US Navy retired.

In Florida White People Get A Discount On Speeding Tickets

According to two Princeton researchers, Florida Highway Patrol officers have significant personal leeway to decide how fast you were caught going above the limit and often choose to give people 9 mph fines instead of crossing that 10 mph threshold. (Specific fines vary by county.) According to the researchers, cops tend to give these discounted tickets to white people much more often than 
people of color. here

Why Florida Democrats Are Losers

 A flurry of political activity going on in western Orange County. The republicans are running vigorous campaigns. One the other side of the aisle is a single Democratic candidate without much name ID, support or money. As of his last report, he had raised $3,131 … with most of that coming from the candidate’s own pocket.
------------------------------
All this in a district that strongly supported Hillary Clinton over Donald Trump just nine months ago — by a double-digit margin, in fact.
"This, my friends, is why Democrats are chronic losers in this state … because they don’t compete. Heck, they can’t even organize." Orlando Sentinel

Tampa Mayor And The Tampa Bay Builders Association Want To Cut Down Our Trees

The City of Tampa is taking a comprehensive look at the tree ordinance and making changes. Recommendations from the Mayor's Competitiveness Committee ask for more flexibility regarding grand tree preservation, more flexibility for city staff to approve removals and rescinding the 50 % tree preservation rule in certain areas of the city.
---------------------------
The voice that has been the loudest in changing the city code has been the Tampa Bay Builders Association and the voice of the people needs to be heard.

Tampa Residents Want Their Money Back

For years, Tampa residents posted "5-minute parking" signs, like this one in Palma Ceia to keep people from parking for extended periods in front of their homes. But the city repealed the ordinance last month after they ceded their municipal authority over to the State of Florida. Now the City Council is looking at a residential parking permit program. here
-------------------------------
Is the city going to reimburse the taxpayers to whom they allowed to purchase these expensive lawn signs? Since 1989, the city approved of, and in some cases even enforced the ordinance that the individual homeowners (at their own expense) displayed.

Adam Putnam: Proud #NRASellout

Last week, in an embarrassing blip of social media that did not come from the president, Florida’s leading Republican gubernatorial candidate, Adam Putnam, tweeted: “I’m a proud #NRASellout!” This may be perfectly predictable behavior from a Republican vying to become Florida’s next governor. But it’s hardly a declaration of leadership or individualism. here

Florida Power & Light:  The third-largest utility in America routinely brags about how responsive it's been to the impacts of climate change, a new report outlines that it has known about the effects of climate change since the 1970s.
-------------------------------------
They along with Duke Power and the Panhandle's Gulf Power have for decades been funding PR campaigns to discount climate science as untrustworthy and untrue. The report also hits Gulf Power for funneling hundreds of thousands of dollars to climate-denying scientists.
