According to the "Miami Herald" and "St. Petersburg Times" Karen Thurman, Florida Chairman of Democratic Party, has been receiving $3,500/month from former Republican Chairman, Alex Cardenas. She is being paid to lobby in Washington for Miami-Dade. This is in addition to her $100K salary for her position as Chairman.

This prompts many questions: To which employer does her loyalties lie--the Democratic Party or Republican Party? Is this not a conflict of interest? During the 2006 election, why did Karen Thurman not "get out the vote" and provide candidates from Congress on down with money to beat opponents? Why did Florida not go "Blue" like the rest of the country?

Many people around the U.S. are likely unaware of the election fraud that recently occurred in the 2006 election. AGAIN...under a Republican-run government and little opposition from a weak Florida Democratic Party, another election was stolen. The election is in question and there are four candidates legally contesting the election outcome and process.

Most are familiar with the case of Christine Jennings (D) in Sarasota, but there are more contests, that have actual empirical evidence of voting fraud in Florida. Does anybody care? Do we not have the right to vote and have our votes counted, as declared in the Constitution? Remember, Florida did not go "blue" like the rest of the country. DO NOT COUNT on Florida going "blue" in 2008.

Congresswoman Ginny Brown-Waite needs to be included in the Ethics Committee investigation. She has been very good friends with Mark Foley for years since they have the "same ideology." She has received campaign money from Mark Foley (not to mention Abramoff, Cunningham, and DeLay). She claims that Mark Foley was a teetotaler but then later recanted that she knew he went to the page dorms in drunken state. Brown-Waite claimed that she performed her "own investigation" and obtained information from first-hand sources.

What did she know? Why didn't she tell anybody? What kind of investigation did she perform? What makes her qualified to perform this investigation? She needs to be questioned under oath!

Rick Penberthy (D), Congressional Candidate in Florida's District 5, is peddling himself as a "Grassroots Candidate" who got on the ballot via petition cards. Let me ask you, "Is paying a professional petition card gatherer deemed as 'grassroots'?" Mr. Penberthy is misrepresenting himself over and over in his campaign. He may call himself a "Fighting Dem" but can somebody who spent $60K of his own money in the 2004 Congressional election...and came in 4th place out of four candidates...beat Ginny Brown-Waite? I call this poor business management. Is being fined by the FEC for missing a deadline for filing a responsible candidate? We need to ask these questions...The proof is in the pudding!

It is SUCH A SHAME... That Mr. Rick Penberthy in his desire to win has SUNK to such lowwwwwwwwwsssssssssss! While Good ole Mr. P was not very successful in 2004--- Spending a heap o' cash to only end up DEAD LAST in a 4 man primary... at least though cowardly, he remained pretty much honorable in his campaign tactics. Taking note of the primary winner's (Robert Whittel) shady but effective effort last "go round" Mr P now figures... ly'in and mislead'in the voters is the ticket to DC........

It is shameful indeed that ANY democrat would be ignorant enough to think that being more untruthful than Ginny IS the path of least resistance for taking her to the hoops on her questionable honesty toward the public with regard to any number of issues. Mr. Rick seems to think that PROFESSIONAL PETITION CARD GATHERERS are somehow "even steven" with volunteers... if that's grassroots then somebody better talk to Webster's! ANDDDDDD...... Read More
