Florida's Rocket Docket
Courts Helping Banks Screw Over HomeownersThe state of Florida has created a special super-high-speed housing court with a specific mandate to rubber-stamp the legally dicey foreclosures by corporate mortgage pushers like Deutsche Bank and JP Morgan Chase. This "rocket docket," as it is called in town, is presided over by retired judges who seem to have no clue about the insanely complex financial instruments they are ruling on.

Cigar City Brewing’s Tasting Room
Threatened By Gwen Miller, Thomas Scott And Curtis Stokes.Cigar City opened a tasting room last year to much success. By being able to extend their hours of operation and sell and serve beer on premises, this local business was able to increase its employee count from 2 to 22. Now they are facing a huge problem. Three members of Tampa City Council have voted to not make the wet-zoning permanent, which would essentially force the closing of the Tasting Room.
here
So as the citizenry, we have a responsibility to make our voices heard. Tell the Tampa City Council not to vote for killing jobs. Tell them not to vote for limiting growth. Tell them to reward success and not punish it.
here
And Tell Charlie Miranda To Show Up For Work!
Thank You Mary Mulhern, Yvonne Yolie Capin And Joseph Caetano.
Update: Lisa From Cigar City Magazine Heard From A Good Source That Gwen Miller Voted No Because Of Joe Redner Sr. His Son Joey Redner Is Founder And Owner Of Cigar City. If This Is The Case Ms. Miller Doesn't Need To Be Voting At All.

The Reign of Right-Wing Primetime
According to months of data from leading media-research company Experian Simmons, viewers who vote Republican and identify themselves as conservative are more likely than Democrats to love the biggest hits on TV. Of the top 10 broadcast shows on TV in the spring, nine were ranked more favorably by viewers who identify themselves as Republican. Liberals appreciate many of the same shows, mind you. But their devotion typically is not quite as strong as right-wingers, and Dems are more likely to prefer modestly rated titles.here

Ken Hagan "Blown Away"
At this morning’s Hillsborough County Commissioner’s meeting, board member Mark Sharpe presented Ken Hagan with a token of appreciation for
his leadership, integrity and excellent service over the last year.
Hagan, who played baseball at the University of Florida and has played and loved baseball most of his life, was “blown away” by the gesture and seemed genuinely very honored to be receiving the recognition. Hagan was given a Louisville slugger baseball bat signed by each of his fellow commissioners.

Kathy Castor: Thank You
I am humbled and honored by your support for my reelection campaign. Thank you for allowing me to represent you. I will continue to work for economic recovery and opportunity for all in our community. Your encouragement and work on my behalf means a great deal to me, Bill and our family.As we move forward, I will continue fighting for jobs so your voice is heard instead of the special interests. Our progress has resulted in significant investments and jobs at MacDill Air Force Base, Tampa International Airport, Moffitt Cancer Center, USF, community health centers, the I-4 port connector, and more.
We still face challenges in our communities but together we will continue to address them head on with principled solutions that will keep us on the path to economic opportunity for all. I will continue standing up to BP and the big banks that harmed our state. I will ensure that veterans, seniors, and students are given the benefits and opportunities they have been promised and I will continue to be your voice in Washington, fighting for economic progress and accountability.
Now more than ever, our community needs an independent leader on their side.
Thank you for the opportunity to serve.
I look forward to hearing from you in the coming weeks. Have a blessed Thanksgiving and Holiday Season.
Sincerely, Kathy Castor

Corrupt Prosecutor Mark Hurlbert
On July 3, Steven Milo was riding his bicycle when he was allegedly struck from behind by wealth manager Martin Joel Erzinger. Rather than stop and call 911, or otherwise seek help for Dr. Milo, Erzinger fled the scene and called the Mercedes auto assistance service for help with his broken side mirror.Now, Eagle County DA Mark Hurlbert is willing to drop felony charges against Erzinger, because he's worried that Erzinger may be unable to keep his job,

Right-Wing Echo Chamber
$200 Million A Day For Obama To Travel?To say this figure has made the rounds in the blogosphere would be a huge understatement. It has been repeated by nearly every conservative pundit in the land: Hannity, Limbaugh, Beck, Drudge. Always with a healthy dose of indignation. Actually it's a figure that came from just one source, a news agency in India, relying on an anonymous source. It was then repeated thousands more times in the blogosphere and airwaves.
here
"It bothers me just a bit that while all these reasons why the Democrats got swamped in the mid terms are floating around, very few are calling attention to the right-wing echo chamber which ratcheted up the lies against Obama and the Democrats, thereby scaring Americans and exploiting covert prejudices against Obama."

Sign The Petition Encouraging Nancy Pelosi
Don't Let The Blue Dogs Take OverDemocrats suffered serious losses on Tuesday, but no one was hit harder than the corporatist Blue Dogs. Over half their members are gone. Apparently, being the GOP's best friends on issue after issue wasn't the political winner they claimed it was.
But getting drubbed hasn't made the Blue Dogs humble. Now, they have Nancy Pelosi in their sights, demanding she step down as Democratic leader in the House. The Blue Dogs want to replace her with one of their own, so they can deliver our entire party to Wall Street.
