TU: Mayor: Leadership will make difference in developing downtown Jacksonville

Something else the mayor wants total charge of..............I guess if you keep trying sooner or later, you gain control over quite a bit, but I am not sure that's such a good idea.  I am concerned about who will be chosen to run this and for how much to be quite truthful and how much more money they will want to flush through the downtown...........especially since it is our money they are doing the flushing with.  Your opinion?…

CNS: Obama: 'That Wild-Eyed, Socialist, Tax-Hiking Class Warrior Was Ronald Reagan' (the fib of the day)

You certainly have to give Obama credit.  When he tells a whopper, it really is one and this one is actually more than one.  First of all, Reagan closed loop holes and then, he LOWERED taxes for everyone.  The reason the IRS got more money is that companies did well and paid more taxes for that reason.  Secondly, he claims, then, they will pay as much as middle class Americans (and many of them pay no taxes at all or those taxes they do pay in are returned to them).   Shame,…

TU: Red-light camera firm in talks with Jacksonville has been kicked out of other cities

Rear end collision increased, because people stop short when they light goes yellow or red instead of doing what is safe and going through the intersection.  They know the camera lights are there and afaid they will get a pocket full of tickets, so instead we have tons of accidents and people hurt...............what an improvement huh?  But heah I guess we can look forward to cameras in our bedrooms before this is all done with and these snoopy money grubbing elected officials stop spending…

TU: Jacksonville City Council looks at downtown authority bills

Article about the title  issue and below that 3 items our city council has taken action on already.  Note the change to the number of precincts Jerry Holland had asked for!  How do you feel about this group the mayor wants??   Do you think it will help the downtown or do you see it as just another way to spend money we don't have?

Washington Times: OLSEN: Dangers of academia’s ‘indoctrination mills’

I think we all know this is happening and know how dangerous this is for our country...............we have student brain washing at all levels in the school system and it needs to be stopped and reversed back to teaching about our economic system, our history and our founding documents.  That the far left is using tax payer funded public schools to brain wash our children is insane and that they are allowed to do so is even worse.…

Santorum Pulls Out

An inability to secure a rock hard win in his home state of Pennsylvania prompted Rick Santorum to pull out today. Santorum has maintained and just reiterated  last week that he was opposed to pulling out under any circumstances. But alas, the strong possibility of losing in his home state proved too much, leaving his prospects for the presidency unfulfilled. Without victory in Pennsylvania, the long shot chance of Santorum to secure  victories in the remaining primaries became beyond…

CNS: Home » News: Fla. Civil Rights Group Welcomes U.N. Official’s Call for Reparations in Trayvon Martin Case

If this wasn't so totally insane, it would almost be laughable.  The UN has no juristic in the United States, and that they would try to impose their will in our country, is bold and outrageous at the same time.   If the DOJ doesn't arrest those breaking the law and send the UN packing, then, I for one will write to my congressman and senators of our state and ask them to remove those in charge at the DOJ as they are no longer doing their job.  And I will write to Governor Scott…

Teacher and classmates mock student during Pledge of Allegiance, her response: see video

I am going to post this in 3 places today.  This is too important for folks not to see it.  This is shameful and needs to be addressed.  At the very least, this teacher should be removed from his position.

UGHHHH, 2011-400 has reared its ugly head again; The Police & Fire Pension Fund proposed legislation

Bill number 2011-400 does not fix the problem, so dragging it out, dusting it off and trying to pass it again isn't going to do anything for the city's financial woes.  I am hard pressed to understand when a bill is no good, why it must be resurrected over and over again with the hope of passing it without the voters noticing they have been duped (I guess).  Kill this horrid bill and burn it, so it can't show up again please.  You are fixing nothing with this…

ANOTHER US FLAG WITH OBAMA FACE ON IT.... HAVE WE HAD ENOUGH?????

There is yet another controvercy about defacing another American flag by putting Mr. Obama's picture where the stars should be.  This is lunacy since this man is not even a veteran and obviously has disdain for his country, its flag and the people.  There is a blog on C2C and the CBS affiliate in Philadelphia has covered the story (link to video below) …

Tampa Bay News: Sen. Marco Rubio seeks middle ground on immigration as Hispanic voice for GOP

This is an issue many feel strongly about, and it will require a policy which addresses the issue of children brought here who do not know any other country as home.  Personally, I don't think anyone who is in this country illegally should be allowed to apply for citizenship or be allowed to stay here in a legal manner ahead of those who have applied to come here legally.  But that is just my opinion.  What is yours?…

TU: Politicians consider demographics in Florida's newly formed districts

Several people have come forward to run for the new seat which will give Duval County representation by 2 state senators.  As one of the districts will be split between Duval County (85%) and Nassau County (15%), we can hope for a representative that is in Duval, but there are going to be several folks running.

TU: Guest columnist: Mayor Alvin Brown, City Council should build on New Town success

I don't think I can ever see JCCI without remembering they are part of a group in St Augustine with an Agenda 21 philosophy related to a non existant global change policy (that is purely meant as a tool to redistribute income).  What they propose for Mayor Brown to do seems to be fine on the surface, but I would question if our city government is about doing this sort of thing or if it might best be left to not for profits and some of the groups suggested (as in the police and…

This is an outrage and one the VP of this nation can't ignore by using his own son to perpetrate this travesty.

Agenda 21: MORE HEROES for OUR NATION TODAY! TODAY WE TURN to VENICE, FLORIDA…

This is amazing.  This is not the first or last time this will happen.  The whole state of Tennessee via the state legislature is trying to rid themselves of Agenda 21, and the head of the Eclei international is a mayor in the state of Tennessee who is fighting back.  If you really care about this, you must fight to help the state of Tennessee as we must also fight this injustice in the state of Florida!  This is not new news, but it is of great importance to our state and to us!…

Why Peter Sleiman is still a Police & Fire Pension Fund (PFPF) Trustee

This is a letter sent to 3 of our city council members on the subject of Mr. Peter Sleiman being a trustee of the Police and Fire Pension Fund.  It was written by a "watch dog" member of another group of concerned citizens here in Jacksonville and is the primary focus of the writer.  As noted Curtis has suffered personally from his involvement in this issue.  Curtis has worked on this issue exclusively in an attempt to get Mr. Sleiman removed as a trustee and bring about change…

Agenda 21: Misprison of Treason - Sample notice CA - Letter (edit for your State)

This is a form letter which can be altered and sent to any and all local or state officials who belong to any Agenda 21 affiliated organization or vote to pass any Agenda 21 affiliated organization's agenda as law in our state, because it is a violation of the constitution (states can not enter into treaties which in essence is what they are doing when they sign on to any Agenda 21 affiliate nor can our governor).  Our governor knows this, but many of our elected…

TU: Parking price break possible for Jacksonville Council visitors

RYAN NICHOLS - Hardened Criminal?? Seriously??

If you're not already aware. This is what's going on in DC while dangerous criminals are allowed back out on the streets.  It's horrifying that this is happening to our citizens and veterans for protesting the hijacking of our election process. This is still happening! They are STILL being tortured and treated like full on terrorists. 

You may not be aware of the typical things they're forced to go through...…
