How Much Do We Spend On War?

Has the nation that built the Hoover Dam?
Brought electricity to the rural South and engineered the interstate highway system lost its appetite for big public works projects? At a time when other countries are pouring money into steel and concrete,
is the U.S. unwilling to think long-term?

Marco Rubio: Too Extreme For Florida

Nathaniel P. Reed Endorses Amendment 4

My vote for Amendment 4 represents my discontent if not disgust with the return to an era of uncaring, anything goes development without caring for local input or the impact on our remaining undeveloped land.

Nina Hayden's Response To The Times And The Tribune

My engaging and passionate commitment to a variety of issues including education and juvenile justice is the motivating factor for my decision to run for State Senate District 16. It is also important for the constituents of my district to have two viable party options.

Voters want a Senator with honesty, integrity and the ability to distribute justice. Voters especially want a candidate whose coffers are not largely funded by special interest groups and lobbyist because this candidate is better able to fight corrupt practices and backroom deals in the legislature.

This is the advantage of running as an unseasoned candidate.
One does not have to walk our legislative halls or step on the Senate floor to have a keen eye to detect that the Florida of today suffers from the decisions made by the Florida of yesterday. When the financial times were plenty the legislature squandered our resources and today continues to lean more on the taxpayer to pay for its unfair policies and lack of transparency in the budget process.

Let the voters instead of opinion pieces decide who they wish to vote for. With great enthusiasm I say vote for Nina Hayden! Let’s not look back! It’s time for a new menu with fresh seasoning.

Nina Hayden, Candidate for State Senate District 16

Traidor Robert Deposada

Robert Deposada has sold out his community. Deposada, a GOP operative from the failed Bush Presidency, crossed a critical line this week by developing and placing ads urging Latino voters to stay home and not vote during this important election cycle. The Republicans, aided by their translator Deposada, have decided that instead of correcting the failure of their candidates and their party to attract Latino voters it is easier and faster to beg folks to stay home.

DWS Welcome To The Land Of Bibles And Guns

Archliberal Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz comes to Tennessee tonight to spread her leftist propaganda and raise money for her Pelosi-supporting buddy, Lincoln Davis. Scott DesJarlais MD for Congress campaign manager Brent Leatherwood said, “I want to take the opportunity to welcome one of the most liberal members of Congress to Tennessee. I hope she understands she’s coming to a state where we truly cling to our Bible and guns – and we’re proud of it.”

Citizens Win On Community Plans
Hagan & Higginbotham opposed the motion, voting for the special interests, while Kevin Beckner & Rose Ferlita led the board in voting for the citizens' interests, joined by Kevin White & Mark Sharpe......more

(The) hearing provided a good look at the stark differences between Ken Hagan & Linda Saul-Sena, who is running against him for a countywide commission seat, as Saul-Sena spoke up from her background as a planner on behalf of the citizens, while Hagan fought for the developers who are contributing so heavily to his campaign.
