"Just so you know, we're ashamed the president of the United States is from Texas."....Natalie Maines 2003
“Ladies and gentlemen, for the first time in my life, I am ashamed of my country,”.....Rush Limbaugh 2013
Maines publicly apologized yet radio stations nationwide started boycotting the Dixie Chicks. Limbaugh hasn't apologized and no one, especially those patriotic 2003 Republicans, is boycotting him for his statement.

Editorial: U.S. Should Engage, Not Isolate, Cuba
Thank You, Tampa Bay Times. My Hometown Newspaper
A Cuba without a Castro is now on the horizon, and the United States and Florida should be prepared for the opportunity.This is the time to reconsider the out-of-date hard line from an older generation and end the failed Cuba embargo. The relaxed travel rules implemented last month by the Cuban government will let Cubans who can afford it to travel freely and return to their country. This is good news for the Cuban people who have lived as virtual prisoners on the island nation. It means, ironically, that Cubans now enjoy greater freedom to come to the United States than our government gives Americans

President Barack Obama could eliminate the remaining travel restrictions
imposed on Americans traveling to Cuba.
Change is coming to Cuba, and this is the time for American engagement instead of isolation.Read it all here

To us, this is life-and-death serious.I am not backing down. If I have to go to jail, I'll go to jail. Just because something is illegal, doesn't make it morally wrong.

On Wednesday afternoon, two days after the incident, Sen. Jeff Clemens, D-Lake Worth, filed the previously planned Cathy Jordan Medical Cannabis Act (SB 1250) in the Senate.the husband-and-wife crime wave were at their home in Parrish, just across the Sunshine Skyway bridge in Manatee County, when deputies arrived Monday afternoon.

Hit pause button on red-light cameras
"It's time to hit the pause button on red-light cameras. They have become a bureaucratic nightmare for the state's clerks of courts who process the citations. Drivers cited for running red lights are caught in a maze of paperwork, vaguely worded regulations and an unfair system of fines.
And the cameras are more about raising money for local governments
than reducing accidents.".....Pinellas County Clerk of the Circuit Court Ken Burke.Cameras in Tampa Bay

Florida Welfare Drug Testing Program
Lets Talk About The Fourth Amendment Mr. Scott
The 11th Circuit Court voted unanimously to uphold the 2011 decision by an Orlando,
court that the tests violate the Fourth Amendment’s protections against unreasonable search and seizures. Republicans across the country have sponsored these types of bills in state legislatures, purportedly to protect children from being raised by drug-addicted parents and to stem the tide of drug use among the poor and unemployed. Aside from the testing being unconstitutional, however, that rising tide of poor and unemployed people using drugs has turned out not to exist.
