Christine Jennings, a taxpayers worst friend....
She is back and thinks she can win???
by Craig Bachler
Those of us that reside in the 13th District in Florida have had our share of entertainment over the past few years in politics.
First there was Jan Schneider, the socialist Democrat that had the squeeky, high pitch annoying voice. Remember her, she claimed to live in the 13th District, but was receiving a homestead on her D.C home, but later announced that she lived with her father. Yes her, well that is water over the dam.
Christine Jennings won the Democrat nod in 06. Remember her, the limo liberal that made her millions in the banking industry. The banker that shrugged loans to minorities and those that were underprivilaged. Well she is not only a hippocrat, but a major sore looser.
In her loss to Vern Buchanan in 06, she spent hundreds of thousands in taxpayer monies to conduct recount upon recount, then in court, out of court and back in court.
Well, she is back! Not only are people stupid enough to donate to her campaign, but she thinks she has a shot at winning. My thoughts, yea right!
She should be bared from any future elections until she repays the taxpayers. She spent my money and I want it back, just like a bank.
I wonder if she had any dealings with the now defunct Coast Bank? Just a thought.

It's Primary Time!
The circus is in town
by Craig R. Bachler
Being a former New Hampshire resident, home to the first in the nation primary, I have met many wanna-bees.
Now calling Florida my home, it is a whole different story. As many of you are aware, Florida was trying to push ahead of all the other states to be able to suck as much cash out the primaries as possible ahead of NY, Michigan, Cal and so forth. Well Florida is Jan 29 now and New Hampshire was smart enough to have a law on the books keeping it the first in the nation primary.
We learned alot in New Hampshire, first the disappointing endorsement from the Manchester Union Leader for John McCain. Remember him, the same guy that was in bed with fat boy Kennedy on allowing illegals to stay in the US? Then we learn that all those liberals from Mass that moved to NH was able to get the RINO to win the primary.
Well, now it is Florida's time to shine.....
Jan 29 is around the corner and I voted today in early voting. (Results at bottom of page).
Rudy has spent more time in Florida than any liberal snowbird, then Huckabee has stopped in a few times, my former favorite Tancredo is on the ballot even though he stepped out in December. Then Mitt, yes the former gov of Ma during the same period gay marriage was allowed, gay material was given out in kindergarten classes for six year old and so no, remember him, flip, flop Mitt.
Well, out of all the pool, Mitt has the business experience and leadership skills to try to get the country back on track. He did bail out the Olympics in Salt Lake, balanced the budget in Ma as governor and has a success in making money. With this on his resume, he is the only candidate to even consider. Remember my earlier comments on him, well it is the devil you know rather than the one you don't know. Do we want fat ankles Hillary, or Obama the communist?
Results of my voting ( if you can't guess) Mitt for Pres, and yes on 1. Time for a tax break on my property and tell the government cry babies that they need to remove the fat in the local governments. This includes the wasteful school districts including our own, Manatee County under Roger the dodger Dearing.

Merry Christmas....
Retailers can really screw up
by Craig Bachler
I recently read that a major retailer published in a catalog that their inventory of "Family Tree and Family Decorations" are on sale. Did Hallmark invent a new holiday called "Family Day"? Oh, it is politically correct to now call Christmas, "Family Day". Wow want to talk about a loaded statement.
Next, we will be changing all the songs of Christmas to Family....
The Twelve Days of Family,
Silver Bells....It's Family Time in the City........
I'm Dreaming of a White Family...
Remember Walmart several years ago fell flat on their faces when they told their sale people, wish people a happy holiday season instead of Christmas, that lasted only one season. Do you think this major retailer will change their policy next year?
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

Florida School District Money Woes....
Manatee County about to cut services for children.
by Craig Bachler
It was reported several weeks ago, on Nov 17,2007 that the Manatee County School District was about to pull the plug on the LLI Program. For those of you unfamiliar with this program, it is an intensive approach to assist children with language issues (no, not bad words).
This program has demonstrated success including my child. The real reason wasn't stated as to why the program is being eliminated. According to Jeffery Schneidleman ( sorry Dr. Schneidleman) the program is outdated and children are better off being "mainstreamed". Guess what, this is a bunch of horse crap. It is all about money.
Our beloved Superintendent Roger Dearing ( sorry, another Dr.) doesn't even have a plan on how these loss services will be made up. Under the requirements IDEA, the district must have the services in place, thus is the district breaking the law or just perhaps bending it.
Maybe Dearing should get rid of all the overpaid administrators, the savings would be huge and the money can go to education. When there is a 2 to 1 ratio of administrators to teachers, there is a problem. Under Dearing, our budget has exploded because of hiring more of his friends into positions that are not needed.
Before we get rid of services, maybe we should get rid of our Superintendent and hire a person that is focused on children and not his political buddies.
