Grand Theft Tampa Bay
In 2006, the GOP controlled legislature, at the behest of an army of utility
lobbyists and their wads of campaign cash, passed a law allowing utility
companies to charge customers upfront for the future construction of nuclear
plants, even if they don’t actually build one. And get this, now that Duke
Energy has finally declared that they won’t be building any new nuclear plants,
we don’t get any of our money back. Even more absurd, we’re going to continue to
pay Duke Energy $108 million dollars a year for the cancelled nuclear plants. Join us this Saturday, September
28th at 10:30 am in downtown St. Petersburg in front of Duke Energy
of Florida headquarters and tell them, and the politicians and regulators in
their back-pocket, “enough is enough!” It’s time to tell Duke Energy, their bought
and paid for elected officials in leadership, and the so called “Public Service
Commission” to stop ripping us off.

Is Ted Cruz A Liberal Plant?
one senior House Republican said "Cruz is the leader of a secret cabal of leftists that are seeking control of the conservative movement. Their aim is to force the party to take on suicidal missions to destroy the movement from within." After all he is from Canada where he learned to love Socialism and all that Socialized
Medicine shit. And his father is Cuban, he has traveled to Cuba and he has refused to discuss the things he
learned from Fidel Castro. Keep up the good work Mr. Cruz we will be cheering for you in the primaries.....more

Bill Gunter aka The Beer Boogeyman
Along time ago before he found god Bill Gunter was know around the beaches of Bradenton as The beer boogeyman. He would run into convenience stores at night and steal two to three cases of beer, along with some potato chips, can't forget the chips. He smoked his first joint when he was in the 5th grade. From marijuana, he went onto LSD, reds, valium and speed. “My parents found pot and rolling papers in my laundry,” he added. “I smoked pot in my room, and pretty much did what I wanted to do because my parents were scared of me.” His dream was to play football at a major university but if that didn't work out he had already planned his alternative occupation: to work with a cocaine dealer as a thug. “I was on my way to it already. I was hired once – I drove by and shot at a man’s house and broke his windows. Pasco beware, read more about Mr. Bill here

1.2 Million Uninsured Floridians
As you read this, 1.2 million hard-working,
uninsured Floridians are one-illness
away from bankruptcy, forced to use emergency rooms for primary care and are
being refused the benefits of our nation’s new health care law. Why?
Because the Florida legislature has refused federal funding to expand health
care to these families in dire need.
Call 866-443-1844 today and tell your state
representative that it is time to stop playing politics and expand health care
for more than one million hard-working Floridians.
