Allison Tant Must Go

With only six months left until the general election, 
Allison Tant 
is having a hard time recruiting candidates, 
calling into question her ability to lead 
Florida Democrats.
here
The Florida Democratic Party chairwoman assumed that position in January 2013, promising to “out-raise, out-organize, and outwork the GOP” across Florida. But it simply hasn’t happened.

GOP BS: 12 Attacks On U.S. Embassies Happened On George W. Bush’s Watch

  1. Calcutta, India; January 22, 2002 – Five killed at the U.S. Consulate.
  2. Karachi, Pakistan; June 14, 2002 – 12 killed, 51 injured at U.S. Consulate.
  3. Islamabad, Pakistan; February 28, 2003 – Two killed at the U.S. Embassy.
  4. Riyadh, Saudi Arabia; May 12, 2003 – 36 killed, nine of them Americans, at the U.S. diplomatic compound.
  5. Tashkent, Uzbekistan; July 30, 2004 – Two killed at the U.S. Embassy.
  6. Jeddah, Saudi Arabia; December 6, 2004 – Nine killed at the U.S. Consulate.
  7. Karachi, Pakistan; March 2, 2006 – Four killed, including U.S. diplomat David Foy, at the U.S. Consulate. (Note that this is the second fatal attack on the Consulate in 4 years. Where was the extra security? Oh, right. There was none. Mr. Foy was directly targeted in this attack but we never heard a peep from anyone on the right about it.)
  8. Damascus, Syria; September 12, 2006 – Four killed, 13 wounded at U.S. Embassy.
  9. Athens, Greece; January 12, 2007 – Thankfully empty U.S. Embassy targeted with an anti-tank grenade (which landed in the Ambassador’s office).
  10. Sana’a, Yemen; March 18, 2008 – 13 schoolchildren are injured when a mortar misses the U.S. Embassy and hits a nearby school. (Brown children are just collateral damage to the right).
  11. Istanbul, Turkey; July 9, 2008 – Six killed at the U.S. Consulate.
  12. Sana’a, Yemen; September 17, 2008 – Sixteen killed (including a newlywed couple) at the U.S. Embassy. The second attack in 7 months. No cries for extra security here, either.
  13. more
  14. WHERE WAS THE OUTRAGE?

Beverly Ledbetter for the Florida House of Representatives District 38


Our District deserves someone who knows both the people and the issues facing Eastern Pasco County.  
As a Dade City resident since 1973,
 I have raised a family here, 
taught in the Pasco County school system, 
and worked to make our community a better place. I am invested in our community and committed to the citizens of our district.  My motivation is to serve you – not to use this seat as a springboard for another political office.  I really love East Pasco and want to move us forward by serving you in the Florida House of Representatives.

City Of Deerfield Beach Has Declared War On Satan

I just want equal billing. 
We allow various religious nutjobs to give a prayer. 
They pray to Jesus who is make-believe, god who is make-believe, 
Why not Satan who is make-believe? 
Why discriminate against one make-believe god over another? Satan and I are being circumvented. The city of Deerfield Beach has once again declared war on religion — 
and this time it’s Satanism.”

Chaz, don't be picking on Jesus!

Florida Ranks 44th In Teachers Pay

 The great work our teachers do, 
But the lack of support they get from our legislature in Tallahassee.
Unfortunately Tallahassee’s got it all wrong.  Florida is ranked 44th in classroom teacher pay; and instead of supporting our teachers, 
Tallahassee politicians 
have gutted education funding.......more>

Protect Florida Panthers from Big Oil

Florida panthers number barely over 100 
In the wild and can't afford unnecessary, new threats. 
Yet, the state of Florida 
has issued a permit for the construction of a new oil 
and gas waste disposal well in prime habitat for the 
endangered Florida panther. This well would be place 
less than a mile from the 
Florida Panther National Wildlife Refuge.

Conservatives More Likely To Be Psychopaths

Last year Marcus Arvan, of the University of Tampa
 Came under fire when he showcased his theory in another paper. Now he has returned with even more data which, he insists, shows that socially conservative views are statistically linked to three anti-social personality traits: 
Machiavellianism (deception) 
Narcissism (overinflated sense of self-worth) 
and Psychopathy (absence of guilt or remorse).

The Citrus Taliban Attacks The Broward County School District

A Broward County 
Boy said he was banned from reading 
"The Good Book" 
during free-reading time in school. The boy and his father have hired an attorney, 
calling this a violation of the boy's Constitutional rights.  
Fact: The student was reading his Bible during a "classroom 'accelerated reading' program," 
not during a free-reading session.

 The boy's family is being represented by the Liberty Institute, a "conservative religious-rights group" The Liberty Institute has a "long history of hyperbolic assertions about the impending end of religious freedom."....more

Elisabeth Hasselbeck has noted that the boy and his father would be on Fox and Friends.

Broward County Public Schools respects and upholds the rights of students to bring personal religious materials to school, including the Bible, and to read these items before school, after school or during any "free reading" time during the school day.
