Hillsborough County Right Wing Infestation

 All five Republican Hillsborough County Commissioners rejected a draft ordinance put on the agenda by Democratic Commissioner Kevin Beckner that would have created an administrative process to deal with wage theft. The ordinance, modeled on a program in Miami-Dade County, seeks to settle wage disputes through conciliation. If that doesn’t work and a worker’s claims are judged valid, the employer has to appear before a formal hearing officer. here

A recent study showed Hillsborough County is No. 2 in the state for reported cases of wage theft.

Florida's Right Wing Infestation In Jacksonville

Former Republican Party of Florida (RPOF) Chairman Lenny Curry defeated Jacksonville Mayor Democrat Alvin Brown, 51% to 49%. 4 years ago Brown narrowly won office by positioning himself as a conservative Democrat who tried to avoid partisan politics. He said he wanted to work with Republican Gov. Rick Scott to bring jobs to the area and upset local Democrats by not appearing with President Barack Obama at a 2012 campaign rally. here

Mr. Brown when the folks want a Republican they vote for a real one.

If Only Congress Had Listened To Alan Grayson

Marco Rubio still doesn’t get it on Iraq

Was it a mistake to go to war in Iraq?

“No, I don’t believe it was. The world is a better place because Saddam Hussein doesn’t run Iraq,” he said, adding, “Hindsight is always 20/20, but we don’t know what the world would look like if Saddam Hussein was still there.” Marco Rubio

Florida GOP John Mica: Amtrak 'Soviet-style operation'

Less than 24 hours after the New York-bound train crashed, the Republican-led House Appropriations Committee voted to reduce grants to Amtrak by $252 million -- a drop of about 15% from last year's level. Mica suggested on CNN that opening the commuter rail market to private investment was the solution to what he called a "third-world rail system ... run in a Soviet-style operation." here

Pathetic Journalist Adam Smith Of The Tampa Bay Times

Several weeks ago, a highly placed source within Patrick Murphy's campaign bragged that Chuck Schumer would drive Alan Grayson out of the Florida Senate primary by unleashing a barrage of opposition research about his business dealings. Schumer, easily the sleaziest Democrat in the Senate-- who is desperate to please Wall Street banksters by delivering the open Florida seat to Murphy-- twisted a perfectly innocent SEC filing into a smoking gun of corruption. He then hired Queen Helena's p.r. assistant to find a pathetic "journalist" willing to run it up the flag pole and get the tongues wagging. Schumer did well in planting his bullshit bombshell with lazy would-be muck-raker Adam Smith from the Tampa Bay Times, who was eager to make the story about himself. here

Disgusting Subhuman Jason Falbo Of Palm Beach

Pointed his riding lawnmower towards a family of ducks and ran over them, the heartless man then turned around and ran over the ducklings again, while laughing and giggling about it. He was booked and charged with nine counts of animal neglect. He could not provide any explanation for his actions.

Growing up, before walking into class, I'd scrub my hands with soap and water to try to take off the green-tint, caused by cutting asparagus. Every morning, from February to July starting at 2 am - 6am I'd work the fields before school started. If I didn't scrub my hands raw, my school papers would turn green. here

Kim Bruns Of George & Dragon British Pub In Orlando Knows Black People

Kim Bruns, who owns the Orlando George & Dragon British Pub was arrested last weekend after holding a young black couple at gunpoint while hurling racist comments and threatening to shoot them, according to police records. here

She denies the charges and explains that 

she knows black people and she’s totally not racist. 

She refused to allow police access to surveillance footage from the incident and more disparaging remarks were made later at the police station by Bruns.

The Citrus Taliban: Sheriff Grady Judd

Polk County Sheriff and part-time pastor Grady Judd delivered a guest sermon at First Baptist Church on the Mall last month — it was called “Wouldn’t the World be Better if Everyone Behaved Like a Christian” — and he didn’t do it as a private citizen. He delivered it while wearing his sheriff uniform, suggesting that he was speaking 
as a government official. here

This is a man incapable of separating church and state. He’s shown it time and time again. He equates Christianity with goodness, which doesn’t bode well for people looking for justice who don’t believe in his imaginary friend.
