and sandman-thanks for the everglades question and a few others, i wanted to know that too.

but didn’t ask cuz i was starting to feel like the adhd kid in the class.

where was everyone today? i know, out in their yards, it’s spring. slow last few days.

we had an experienced, smart and involved progressive candidate here and hardly anyone around.

sorry you all missed it, hope we have him back.

good job howie, and i wanted to post this, but didn’t know if it was appropriate, so am doing it now.

if it isn’t, go ahead and pull it. it’s your post about the diaz-balart brothers and wasserman-schultz

joe garcia made it sound like it was patched up, but i dunno, is it? if not, we need to flood the addresses you gave, and kick into his campaign fund to counter her actions. this post is why i contributed today, and in honor of his parents, who sound like fine people.

after all of the repeated republican shenanigans in florida and in this district in particular, we need to get behind him.

thanks for all you do howie, and fdl.

just dropped my contribution into the bucket howie, made it in time! match it dude!

and kicked in a little for sam bennett, too…….

and a tip.

got any cheney hats left? i need another one, gave the other one to my parents’ 80 yr radical neighbor in boehner’s district, he wears it everywhere, the store, the bank, even the golf course.

if you do, i’ll kick in a little more from the cookie jar fund.

Greetings, Joe, and welcome. Happy to see you in the race…About the DCCC: Debbie Wasserman-Schultz has already refused to endorse Democratic challengers to Ileana Ross-Lehtinen, Lincoln Diaz-Balart, and Mario Diaz- Balart, saying she doesn’t want to stab her own delegation in the back…It sounds more like loyalty to those already in the club, regardless of policy positions… Doesn’t that mean she refused to endorse you? Why do you think she’ll change her mind?

The laws that were created under FISA were sufficient to meet our country’s national security needs.

What the Bush administration has done, again, is present Americans with a false choice between national security and civil liberties.

To paraphrase Ben Franklin: “Those who sacrifice liberty for security deserve neither.”
