The very last line of this article is a quote by Ms Clinton, and it should give all of us pause.  She thinks that because we are all so focused on the primary, we will not be paying attention to what she is doing, and she may be able to get more done....................to me that says she is going to try ramming things through that we would object to, but as we won't be paying attention, she can do it without opposition.  Your thoughts?

WASHINGTON —…

A member of the Arlington Group sent me this commentary as she had mentioned how good the "PonteVedraMan's" commentary was.  He apparently also submits to the Times Union, but I do not recall seeing anything there; however, my friend said he gets published quite often.

Ineptocracy…

    To: ALL PATRIOT GROUPS IN ALL STATES

    Subject: PRIMARY ELECTIONS

    Fellow Patriots:

    We are writing to you because we feel that the best presidential

candidate may not be represented in the current field.

    We have thought of a way to get the attention of the Republican Party

and possibly change the outcome of the 2012 Election. It would take a

coordinated effort by our Patriot Groups Nationwide, hopefully

starting with your…

Hmmmm.  Does this make sense?   The mayor appoints the ethics officer, and what if someone in the mayor's group does something wrong?  Who does Mr. Phillips owe allegience to?  Us the taxpayers or the mayor?  

More on the Jacksonville Ferry.  This will be interesting to see shake out as I think it is quite possible their will be a free market solution to this!  Certainly worth keeping an eye on.

Neptune Beach's mayor suggests just that, but other mayors are cool to the idea.

Good to his word, Mayor Brown is tackling out of control spending (our fine city is nothing more than a microcosm of the federal government...........borrow and spend and borrow and spend more).

Another hard hitting commentary by Mychal Massie.

Obama made an appearance at Disney World the other day, a fitting place for him and the fantasy world he lives in. I don’t have a problem with fantasy – I enjoyed the works of J.R.R. Tolkien,…

then how can we vote for anyone other than Ron Paul?  I have yet to hear the philosophy or rhetoric of ANY other candidate besides Ron Paul who does not espouse Globalism, War and the NeoCon/RINO "Status Quo" -- continuing on the "conservative" path we have followed since Bush 41.  I sincerely believe that electing a Romney, Santorum, Gingrich or (God Forbid).... Jeb Bush -- is NO DIFFERENT than electing Obama or Hillary Clinton.  There is absolutely ZERO DIFFERENCE between the policies of…

It is way past time for “We The People’” to choose our next president. The Republican Primaries have turned into a street brawl and all our candidates are severely flawed for one reason or another.

We must consider a completely different direction. We must get the ball rolling for a DRAFT JIM DEMINT FOR PRESIDENT MOVEMENT. As a frustrated constitutionalist/conservative Tea Party member, I believe a true groundswell, "grassroots" movement could propel Jim into…

Linda is a lovely person and when a group from the COJ committee went down to hear about the Children's Commission, we could tell that this was Ms. Lanier's passion and something she truly was meant to do and loved doing. 

Lanier says ongoing talks with City Council about changes are not a factor.

Terrific commentary and agree with Mr. Lamb.  If you haven't seen this already, it is well worth the minute or two it will take to read it! 

By Henry Lamb

Mychal Massie has hit the nail on the head yet again.  We should all be prepared for Obama to tell everyone what a "wonderful" job he has done and how successful he has been...................reality is far different from his vision, but since he surrounds himself with yes men and is totally out of touch, he believes his own lies I would guess.

We’re being told that Obama is going to vent his animus toward Congress in an…

This came through from my tea party friend, Marcie, down in Texas.  I think the thing that struck me the hardest was that these fine young men and women are giving their lives in Afghanastan, and the media has not said one word about what is going on..........not one word.  I guess we can't expect much from the media anymore!

We are asking everyone to say a prayer for "Darkhorse" 3rd

Battalion 5th Marines and their families…

For those who may not be aware, redistricting is on the agenda for a committee up in Tallahassee right now, and action may be required.  Most of the gerrymandered districts have been kept in place, and many districts are being nudged into the democratic columns including the one held by Allen West.  In fact the whole redistricting totally ignors the voters request for compact districts and is a nightmare, AND Allen West is one of the representatives who will be impacted and might…

Interesting considering they are thinking of cutting the Mayport ferry to "save" money to create jobs?  We need to thank Governor Scott for being more friendly to our fine city than Crist was (is anyone surprised).

Although I wish no ill to UNF (and am glad for a little national spotlight time for them), I wish they had chosen a larger venue for this, so more people could go if the school truly didn't feel they had something larger.  As it is, many people, will be turned away after all the insiders get their seats.  It was a huge disappointment to me that UNF didn't use the sports complex where they have (at least used to have) graduations which has a huge amount of seating and could have…

This is something I believe we need to be vocal on.  There are many things going on right now that would destroy Mayport and should not be allowed to happen.  The ferry is part of this little seaport town and needs to be preserved for future generations.  Suggestions on how to do that???  On the blog related to this post, a couple of folks have indicated selling advertising on the ferry..........
