United for Care Deadlines Are Looming
Deadlines are looming for this campaign. We have to make sure we get 683,149 petitions in by January. Realistically, based on when the bills for petition collection are due, we need to raise another $73,000 by the end of the year. We're hoping to raise another $23k Tuesday, if we can. The longer it takes, the more expensive it becomes.

Patrick Murphy In Damage Control
Sean Phillippi's effort at diverting attention away from Patrick Murphy's Syrian refugee vote at the Florida Squeeze
----------
What our leader Susan Smith had to say:
"This post is an effort at damage control by Murphy’s campaign. They think they can divert attention away from his Syrian refugee vote by attacking Grayson. It’s sad that Murphy doesn’t ever have anything positive to say about himself." #47cowards

Justin Snyder once asked,
"Who's to blame when Patrick Murphy gets crushed next year?"

Beautiful Words From Laila Abdelaziz
On this day, (11.20) 24 years ago, I was born in an occupied land to a very brave mama and a very strong baba. My entrance to this world didn't dignify a birth certificate, as I was born on a land under military rule and for that military power to acknowledge another human prisoner would be silly and self-defeating. So there I was, a baby with no papers in a land ruled by guns and water shortages, travel restrictions and curfews, broken dreams and hopeless promises. Generations of broken dreams and hopeless promises. more
No Separation Of Church And State In Hillsborough County
Idlewild Baptist Church a decidedly conservative church in Lutz has monthly events where Hillsborough County teachers hang out. They get free t-shirts and coffee.
----------
Please note: Idlewild leaders have spoken out against gay marriage. Prominent members have included Bill Bunkley, a conservative radio personality, and Randy Armstrong, who led a constitutional initiative against tax-funded abortions. Republican presidential hopefuls stump at Idlewild during campaign season.
----------
"I'm not comfortable at all," said Susan Smith, president of the Democratic Progressive Caucus of Florida who is skeptical when church leaders say they are not recruiting. District leaders point out that Idlewild can help them meet children's sometimes pressing needs — needs that, in Smith's view, should be fully funded by the state. Instead, Smith said, "we have to beg billionaires for money and we have to beg churches for money."
Stand with Alan Grayson
To change people’s religions?
No. They want to cause terror. And this week, when my opponent Patrick Murphy voted to block Syrian refugees from entering our country because he was terrified, he gave them exactly what they wanted.

How Can Patrick Murphy and Gwen Graham Live With Themselves?
"How can the 47 Democrats, including Patrick Murphy and Gwen Graham, who voted with Republicans yesterday on the SAFE Act live with themselves?" Susan Smith

Mr. Murphy you can be sure that we will do everything in our power that you never get elected to anything ever again! And Ms. Graham if there is a God may he/she forgive you! We are all atheist at this blog and care more about humanity then you ever will. The Episcopal Church should be ashamed to have you as a member.
