Rubio ducks "Credit Card Gate"

"Rubio swipes at Crist, ducks other ?s

Former House Speaker and U.S. Senate candidate Marco Rubio, with the mojo of a strong fundraising quarter and rising poll numbers behind him, did not shy from swiping at Gov. Charlie Crist, his opponent for the Republican primary, during a speech before reporters this morning.
Rubio, at an AP event in the Capitol, said Crist 'cut the legs out from under' the GOP by endorsing President Barack Obama's federal stimulus package last year. Rubio said Crist was not informed enough about the money, and he did a disservice to the rest of the GOP's attempts to limit government.
'When Charlie Crist lined up behind the stimulus package, he cut the legs out from every other Republican who was trying to find an alternative,' Rubio said.
Rubio also demurred from offering specifics on what he knew, if anything, about the $6 million for an airport hangar that has gotten his successor, former Speaker Ray Sansom, in trouble. Rubio said it is still an 'active case, and I want to respect that.'
'I knew what every other member of the Legislature knew, and that is what the line item in the budget said,' Rubio said.
He also said the RPOF credit cards and questions of whether they should be released are 'an internal party matter.' But he said he is 'troubled by the party and the direction it has been going.'
He said Sen. John Thrasher and Sharon Day are 'both qualified people' to succeed longtime RPOF chairman Jim Greer, who recently announced he is resigning."

Obama's continued failures

It behoves me to think how much money Obama has spent on pet projects when our countries economy remains in the dumper. It is not governments job to create jobs, but it is governments job to stimulate job development and growth. However, this administration has failed miserably on anything involved with the economy.
Our amazing leader had another setback this week. He failed to secure the Olympics to his crime ridden hometown, Chicago. Yep, the leader of the free world took out the big guns including Oprah (not referring to her size) and flew them around the world on the taxpayers tab costing many millions to beg for the Olympics.
When is this "intelligent" person going to focus on the US and not traveling around the world apologizing for the US? Both him and his socialist agenda has done more damage in the first eight months of office than his hero Jimmy Carter, another failure.
As an American, 2012 will not come fast enough to get someone in the White House that will lead America and not the anti American rhetoric that Obama and co are famous for.

Me running for office?

I am having a little more time to contribute my thoughts to this blog. Being a full time parent, employee and student tends to detract my focus from telling it like it is. Over the next few post, I will be talking about my observations on why the Republican Party is going to fail in 2010 and it is not the fault of real Conservatives, but the RINO's that line up to run for office.

Yesterday I touched on Marco Rubio, a senate wanna be to replace the last failure in Florida, Mel Martinez. Rubio will not only be a failure, but will side up with the liberal left on immigration. He is an open borders guy and will allow more illegals to flow into the US and also offer them the free rise others are on. Enough said about him at this time.

Today, we will discuss Carol Whitmore, Manatee County Florida District 6 Commissioner. It is official, she is running again. Yes folks, four more years of the same.....NOTHING. Remember, "she is a nurse and her husband is a doctor", quoted from one of the recorded CC meetings. She got in last time because of her campaign manager (Big Red) and the dirty tactics to slander the opposition with skewed facts.

Like an idiot, I allowed her to join in studio on one Saturday. This is when I actually had a little respect for Big Red (her campaign manager). But I was lied to and was told it was a friend of hers, Linda failed to release the fact she was a paid campaign person. I think you understand why I am going in this direction. I do not like being lied to and then use my show for a free campaign plug.

Anyways, Carol Whitmore / Whitless has done nothing but sided with her friends the developers causing increases in taxes and decrease in improvements for the community. Her lack of researching prior to a vote and always siding with her buddies has caused much damage to Manatee County Florida.

As I always say, perhaps it is time to wake up and take out the trash. If you support Carol and her slanderous campaign manager, you support more of the same, NOTHING. Maybe it is time that Craig Bachler runs for Manatee County Commissioner District 6!

You decide.....

Marco Rubio, another Mel Martinez?

The elections of 2008 proved one thing, the American public was sick of what we had in the Republican Party and was willing to try a new approach. Under George Bush, the demographics of American Society were challenged by the terror attacks of 9/11 caused by the Clinton Administration, challenging economic conditions (also caused by Clinton, IE: Commodity Futures Modernization Act of Dec 2000) as well as whining from the left.

Regretfully, the Republicans took the hit for this and some members rightfully so. Here in Florida, we had the poster boy for Hispanic Leadership, Mel Martinez who was hand picked by Bush to run in the soon to be open US Senate seat. The idea of Martinez in this position would encourage the large Hispanic population of Florida to sway towards the Conservative cause. What this actually did was drive a big divide through the population.

Martinez was an open borders type of guy. He supported Bush's agenda on allowing 28 million illegal immigrants the right to stay in America and even be allowed benefits that should only be given to honest, hard working AMERICANS.

Mel proved that the Republican Party is flawed because of his leftist views (even though he claims to be a Conservative) and his arrogant lack of accountability to the same public that voted him in. This is one of the reasons why we have a socialist in the White House and a Congress willing to take away the American dream from you and I.

Now in 2010, we are facing another opportunity to vote in more failure. We have the past Speaker of the Florida House throwing his hands into the ring. Marco Rubino, a former member of the Fl House and ousted because of term limits has decided to follow daddy Mel and try to jump into the US Senate with the hefty salary and great health care.

Funny part is, many Republicans can't identify any major legislation he was involved with and many didn't know who he was before announcing. This only proves he is another seat warmer like Martinez.

Some ask, why are you so bitter towards him? My answer is that the firm he hired to market him sent me an unsolicited e-mail asking for my support because of my radio show. My reply was, I am not supporting Rubino and remove me from your list. So, here is the kicker, I was told "I am sorry you are so narrow minded that you can’t handle different views. "
Funny part of it is that I handle different views on a daily basis, but I do not need some marketing person to tell me how to vote.

So, we have a chance to fix the situation, anybody but the recycled Crist and Rubino or we can continue the slide by voting one of these two wannabes and continue to complain about the state of the Country is. you make the choice, but do not be influenced because you were told who is best, do it by your choice, not the big money makers.

The slide continues


Amazing how when Obama speaks, all of his followers defend him no matter how crap spews out of his mouth. Too bad the idiots that think he is better than sliced bread are morons and should lose their right to vote.

His attempt to brainwash school age children yesterday with his televised infomercial was nothing more than a publicty stunt to try to boost his ever faling ratings. He has the lowest ratings of all presidents in the first nine months in history.

Those few that still like him will never change, they are usually seeking handouts from the government because they refuse to contribute to society other than their political lack of knowledge.

Three and one half years and counting till freedom comes back to America.
