Rick Scott: 4,000 Lies

Rick Scott has lied to you 4,000 times. The press calls it false and misleading. We shouldn't be surprised. Scott pled the fifth 75 times to avoid jail after committing massive Medicare fraud. Fraud then -- fraud now. Rick Scott is just too shady for the Sunshine state.

Bill Nelson: Spoken Like A True Democrat

"Since taking office nearly four years ago, I believe Gov. Rick Scott has been leading our state in the wrong direction. And now, as a result, I think we're headed into the ditch. During his time as the state's chief executive, there's been an assault on Florida's voter laws, there's been a refusal to expand Medicaid to more than a million people, and there's been a deregulation of the state's health care industry, allowing rates to go up unchecked. Just imagine what he'll do if given another four years without any checks or balances. 
It's nice to see Florida Dems sticking together,unlike our mayor.

Tampa Bay Ranks Dead Last

 with Republican Gov. Rick Scott. Publicly at these events, the two have had kind words for each other despite their differing political parties.  Go ahead mayor, why don't you tell us how you really feel. here

Satan In Florida Schools

"If a public school board is going to allow religious pamphlets and full Bibles to be distributed to students -- as is the case in Orange County, Florida -- we think the responsible thing to do is to ensure that these students are given access to a variety of differing religious opinions, as opposed to standing idly by while one religious voice dominates the discourse and delivers propaganda to youth.” The Satanic Temple’s , Lucien Greaves here

Palestine is calling us to action! Palestinians laborers, Palestinian General Federation Trade Union (PGFTU), have called on workers around the world to refuse to handle Israel goods. Palestinians throughout Gaza, the West Bank and 1948 Palestine have demonstrated their unity in the struggle against Apartheid Israel and have taken to the streets in the tens of thousands, bravely facing Israeli military armed with US made weapons to call on the international community to stand with them as they resist Zionism throughout all of historic Palestine. We will be answering this call by organizing community pickets at the Port, asking the longshoreman and truckers to honor this request and to stand with the people of Palestine.
