Tough Times Ahead for Florida
Recent data released from the Census Bureau shows that Jacksonville, Florida is the home of one of the largest communities of gay parents in the country. However, Florida’s Governor Rick Scott has just appointed a conservative Christian by the name of David Wilkins as the head of the Department of Children & Families.
According to the Miami Herald:
Wilkins, a member of the governor’s transition team, is the finance chief of the Florida Baptist Children’s Home, a private agency that allows only “professing Christians” to adopt children in its care.

Tampa Do-Gooder
Leaving The Path Of Least RresistanceI came up with Tampa Do-Gooder over a year and a half ago so I could focus on that giving side of myself and others, and I'm still surprised when I come across true do-gooders. I may have the heart and the desire, but I spend more energy frustrated and not knowing how I can best help than actually doing. Intentions are great motivators but they fade like dreams when you fail to act upon them.

Stop The War On The Cuban People
Free Flow Of Information - End The EmbargoLet me offer a bit of hopeful prognostication: someday the embargo will go away. Probably not tomorrow, not the next day, not next week, probably not even next year. The embargo hurts the people of Cuba, not the terrible regime (even a kid can understand this concept)."......The Spencerian
Kind Words From Peter Schorsch
A Brief Tribute To The Ybor City StogieAll of the rich-and-powerful who read this site, all of the political players who I hope read my work, all of the Masters-of-the-Universe at the Governor’s Club lounge or the Tampa Club…far too few of them read, much less agree with, the writings of the Ybor City Stogie – a rudimentary cut-and-paste of Florida and Tampa Bay’s right-wing.
But I read you Stogie. And so did many others. They may not walk the corridors of power (maybe they do) but you’re readers are out there. Your features on the homeless, on the downtrodden, on the discriminated are, on one hand, heartbreaking; on the other hand, they are inspiring.
Stogie, you’ve got balls. You recently, oh-so-subtlety called out some of our fellow bloggers, asking where the hell is everybody. And for that alone, you have my respect.
In your eyes, Stogie, I must seem like a sell-out because I don’t fight for every left-wing or Democratic candidate. In fact, there are quite a few Republicans I support, respect and admire. But that’s me — working from the inside out. You keep doing what you are doing — reminding all of us what we should be saying and thinking.

Tampa Target Of Partial Panhandling Ban
Tampa City Council Chairman Tom Scott is proposing a partial city ban on panhandling that would include major roads like Dale Mabry, Kennedy, Fowler and Fletcher.
Mr. Scott you are running for mayor and this is the best you can come up with?

Should Mr. Obama be according Mr. Hu the kind of pomp and circumstance ordinarily reserved for more like-minded allies. The 2010 Nobel Peace Prize winner, Liu Xiaobo, is a political prisoner in China. And Mr. Obama himself won the prize in 2009.“It creates a situation where a Nobel Peace Prize laureate is hosting a banquet for a leader who is imprisoning another Nobel Peace Prize laureate.”.....Michael Green

Is Florida A Commodity Or A Treasure?
That is the question former U.S. Sen. and Gov. Bob Graham asked after his speech Friday to the Economic Club of Florida on the oil spill disaster in the Gulf. Although he chose his words carefully, his point is that the political climate today has revived the question which he believes was put to rest 40 years ago: Is Florida for sale?

Martin Luther King, Jr.
This week the Pentagon sank to a new low: claiming that Dr. King would "understand" the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. King's legacy is clear: he opposed war and other violence and condemned war as "an enemy of the poor."
"The great initiative in this war is ours. The initiative to end it must be ours."
--Martin Luther King, Jr., speaking of Vietnam.

Flights To Cuba Out Of Tampa
More Americans will be allowed to travel to Cuba, likely from Tampa International Airport, under changes announced Friday by the Obama administration.here
The White House said it was easing restrictions to enhance the "free flow of information" and promote the independence of the Cuban people from communist rule. I have been saying this for over 40 years. Without the embargo the Castro brothers would have been gone along time ago. The Miami Cuban Mafia is responsible for the suffering of the cuban people all these years, not the Castros.
Stop The War On The Cuban People!
Thanks Kathy Castor.
