Many of you know I am currently visiting in West Palm Beach, FL. (BTW, Snapper and I have had a couple opportunities to fish and we have been successful in the ICW, Thursday we are going for the Bigguns!) This morning we heard a radio advert for voting - the tag line told people to vote because that way "one voice could become many." Huh? Is that why they have the early voting, so one voice can vote multiple times? I am confused. Wife was also.

Tonight we heard on the news they were having trouble with the voting machines - can't get the paper ballets right, can't get the electronic ballets right. No offense Snapper, but what is it with these South Floridians and voting?

Re: Voting in Florida

Beats me, Bubba.. We seem to have the biggest group of fools and crooks for leaders.. It's absolutely pathetic..:'( The inmates ARE running the asylum here, me thinks...

I'm totally against the early voting... I say get your butt to the polls on election day..... and if ya can't, then do your absentee ballot...

ps.. Aspeck.. you have e-mail..8)

Re: Voting in Florida

Former city comissioner, Ray Liberti... Doing Time...
Former county comissioner, Masolotti.... Looks like he's gonna be doing time...
Oh...... Mark Foley............nuff said.....(ya.. my district)

Several City comissioners, and the Mayor herself, are currently being looked at by a grand jury...... Lot of blatently obvious inside land dealing going on there with the downtown developement... Pretty sure some more will resign, at the very least..

Me...?.... For the first time in a looong time.. I'm not voting... There are none to vote for... Boil off the BS and look at their track records.... it's sad...

Just out of curiosity, what is the break down as far as Dem and Rep?

Let me guess Snapper, selective investigative stories by overwhelmingly liberal press and selective prosecution by Democrat DAs.

Only a jackass would want to butt heads with an elephant.
Why would an elephant stoop so low to butt heads with a jackass?
Perhaps the elephant is not really an elephant at all.

Not really....
Foley... ah..ya'll know that story...

Liberti got brought down by the FBI.... He took over $60,000 in bribes from an undercover FBI agent.... Don't think the FBI is overwhelmingly liberal... The Liberal procecuter went easy on him... 18 months, instead of 50 years, since Liberti is co-operating with investigators.... He's talking, and the rest are sweating....8)

Masolotti basically got nailed by his ex wife during their divorce... Little funny-strange secret government land deal that the FBI's looking at... oopsy...

And as far as the selective liberal blah blah blah....It just does'nt wash, Dude....They're ALL dirty politicians down here, and they're all in cahoots with each other to make as much real estate $$$$$$ from their offices as they possibly can...... I would bet everything I have that you'll see the Mayor of west palm go down (Lois Frankel).. She's a flaming democrat, BTW, who is currently being looked at by a federal grand jury..... Plus a few of the city comissioners who are also, Democrats....

it's all about the real estate.... Dem, Rep, other.. I hope they get em' all...:|

oh i'm moving slooooow this mornin'...8)

Ok, if were going to say there are a whole lot of crooked politicians without reference to any particular party them I'm certainly with you.
