Was not this the same way Florida and Florida Senate Majority Leader Lizbeth Benacquisto disguised Common Core, as Indiana Gov. Mike Pence (R-IN)?  The federal money shall flow from Common Core.

Here is a YouTube video entitled, In Search of: People of Color, by the Media Research Center.

Constituents come together at a Tea Party event and ask a natural question, “Have you seen any people of color around?”  It makes sense to ask, after all, what do people believe?  And there are all kinds of people … even at Tea Party events.

Only One Woman at a Time  –  My Joke Book | James Pat Guerréro


 

Tearfully looking away, the girlfriend says to her boyfriend, “You don’t love me anymore!”

Drawing a sky view with his head, the boyfriend ponders a moment.  Then he says, “A man can love only one woman at a time.” Leveling his head to look at her, he says, “Of course, I love you, my darling.”

He hesitates and she looks back; and he says, “But I didn’t say how many women.”

Ray Netherwood representa al candidato del Partido Libertario de la Florida XIX Congreso distrito elección especial en Fort Myers y Naples.

Sr. Netherwood pidió una respuesta a la victoria primaria republicana de Curt Clawson.

Declaró:

Si fuera un republicano, sería estar lamentando las primarias [republicana].

Sin embargo, habiendo sido favorecido por el resultado, elegiría Sr. Netherwood contra “Plan Económica,” de Clawson que se cree fue “improvisada” por las personas que piensa de Clawson por él. En forma verdadera, Clawson tots el “Penny Plan,” el juego para conseguir avalado por Connie Mack. Según el Sr. Netherwood, este plan económico no fue ni siquiera pensado por Curt Clawson propiamente.

Sr. Netherwood del estilo de liderazgo práctico es muy diferente a la de Clawson laisser aller enfoque de la economía y el liderazgo, donde Clawson tendría otros hacer la mayor parte de su trabajo por él.

Como el Sr. Netherwood dice:

Sr. Clawson apoyaría simplemente esperando a que alguien le tira la pelota.

Según el Sr. Netherwood, que esquiva de liderazgo no sería el tipo de liderazgo necesario en el Congreso de Estados Unidos.

Mensaje del Sr. Netherwood es hacer el 95% de su propio pensamiento sobre todas las cuestiones, especialmente en la economía; para conducir a los problemas sociales y las cuestiones constitucionales de Estados Unidos; y nunca permitir Speaker John Boehner o líder de la minoría Nancy Pelosi a decirle cómo votar.

La elección especial general para el distrito del Congreso de la Florida 19 Estados Unidos es el 24 de junio de 2014.

April Freeman correrán por el partido demócrata.

Ray Netherwood for Congress: His View on Republican Curt Clawson | James Pat Guerréro


Ray Netherwood and spouse, Shelley, with Charles Krauthammer

Ray Netherwood represents the Libertarian Party candidate for the Florida’s 19th Congressional District Special Election in Fort Myers and Naples.

I asked Mr. Netherwood for a response to Curt Clawson’s Republican primary victory. He stated,

Were I a Republican, I would be lamenting the [Republican] Primary.

Yet, having been favored by the outcome, Mr. Netherwood would choose to run against Clawson’s “Economic Plan,” which he believes was “cobbled” together by persons who do Clawson’s thinking for him.  In true form, Clawson tots up the “Penny Plan,” playing the game to get endorsed by Connie Mack.  According to Mr. Netherwood, this economic plan was not even thought out by Curt Clawson per se.

Mr. Netherwood’s style of hands-on leadership is quite different from Clawson’s laisser aller approach to the economy, and leadership, where Clawson would have others do most of his work for him.

As Mr. Netherwood states,

Mr. Clawson would simply stand by waiting for someone to toss him the ball.

According to Mr. Netherwood, that dodging of leadership would not be the kind of leadership needed in the U.S. Congress.

Mr. Netherwood’s message is to do 95% of his own thinking on all issues, especially on the economy; to lead on the social issues and the U.S. Constitutional issues; and never to allow Speaker John Boehner or Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi to tell him how to vote.

The general special election for Florida’s 19th U.S. Congressional District is on June 24, 2014.

April Freeman will be running for the Democratic Party.

Time for a Libertarian or Democrat to Beat Republican Clawson | James Pat Guerréro


The special election for Florida’s 19th U.S. Congressional District in the Republican primary is completed.  The winner is Curt Clawson of Bonita Springs, Florida, as of the evening of April 22, 2014.  Two tables show the voting statistics for Lee and Collier counties that comprise the 19th congressional district of Florida.

Ballots Cast 50,082 33.34% 20,257 37.42%

 

Comparing the voting statistics to the campaign financing statistics, the following table.

Representative in Congress Total Votes and Total Percentage of Vote Campaign Total Receipts[3] Campaign Total Disbursements Campaign Cash on Hand
Lizbeth Benacquisto 18,032 (25.68%) $980,835 $796,888 $183,947
Curt Clawson 26,857 (38.25%) $2,864,734 $2,265,783 $598,951
Michael J. Dreikorn 7,560 (10.77%) $17,689 $15,055 $2,633
Paige Kreegel 17,762 (25.30%) $236,055 $205,128 $33,979

 

In summary, there is quite a wide margin of difference between Clawson’s campaign financing and the other candidates.  Clawson is wealthy buying his campaign to the Republican primary victory.  The U.S. Constitution allows this.  Recently, the U.S. Supreme Court unlimited the amount of contributions one can make to all candidates, keeping a contribution limit to any one candidate.  However, any one candidate can unlimitedly contribute to his own campaign while paying for the monitoring pollsters ensuring that he wins.

Clawson says he is conservative; Byron Donalds says he is conservative; Connie Mack says he is conservative.  By golly, he is not conservative.  Taking Clawson first, how can he be conservative while robbing the taxpayers through the federal government of corporate and pension bailout money, in the millions magnitude, to resolve his corporate debt?  Having built some fancy public-private partnership, here is what Clawson said regarding his corporate debt:

“I wish I’d been CEO of a company that didn’t have debt, but the one I took on had a lot of debt, so we had to fight our way through,” Clawson says. “Washington is in a similar position now … I have a little bit of experience in debt I did not create, and I want to bring that turnaround to Washington.”[4]

With respect to Hayes Lemmerz, essentially Clawson transfigured debt to pay off debt and used the debt to pay his hefty selling price.  Additionally, he dumped common stockholders in a lender equity deal via bankruptcy.  However, this is not real experience and continues the same way of handling debt – it still is there.  The majority of the electorate was older in age in this special election and opted not to believe that.

Secondly, the Connie Mack endorsement, although it was not essential, gave Clawson some star power.  Connie Mack has voted many tax hikes and corporate and pension bailouts.  The Penny Plan is foolhardy, means little, not well-thought out, and does not help the budget.

Once again, the Naples Tea Party, Inc., took a hit with Byron Donalds proclaiming Clawson is a conservative.  He decided not to run but instead endorsed Clawson.  What is up?  He just might become the new Chuka Umunna from southwestern France of rhino stylistic.  Additionally, at least, if something goes wrong with Clawson, like committing a foolish crime, Lee County will take the blame, again.

Oh well, madness prevails.  Looking at the next well-financed candidate, Benacquisto, she left some money in her purse, of course.  Everyone knows Benacquisto is smart.  Too many good Republican advisers and Charlie Crist types nearby at ear’s distance are on her side.  Cash on hand is $183,947.  This Florida Republican Party race was not that important.  With a clinging Florida Senate seat and opening multi-verse options now, Benacquisto has nothing to worry about.

Wishing for one of the great madmen, Paige Kreegel, who garnered a healthy second place standing in Collier County, he very nearly cornered a second place finish in Lee County.  The only thing that stopped him was the wealthy Clawson.  If Clawson had not been wealthy and a traveler from the Midwest, he would have won handily with at least 8.24% of Clawson’s campaign receipts.  Voters had paid too much attention to negative ads – the absolute three-point game Clawson plays.

Some caveats at the end of the race are as follows for Southwest Florida:

  1. Do not run against a wealthy candidate, unless a flagitious attorney can bring him down.
  2. Clawson is not conservative, but medium moderate.
  3. It was not a race.
  4. Benacquisto’s name brand endorsements, Sarah Palin and Mike Huckabee, did not help.
  5. The statistics do not include the PAC data.
  6. The timing is ripe for a Libertarian or Democrat to beat a Republican.

Florida House Rep. Dane Eagle Fall Guy, Legislative Aide Stands | James Pat Guerréro


dane eagle booking
Rep. Dane Eagle

The Florida House legislative aide of Rep. Dane Eagle’s (R-FL77) wrote the following statement in behalf of him on his driving under the influence of alcohol (DUI) arrest.[1]

“I was arrested in Tallahassee and accused of driving under the influence of alcohol,” Eagle wrote. “While there are some decisions that I would have made differently, I do not believe there is a complete and accurate picture of the events. Under advice of my legal counsel, I cannot discuss all the details right now, but I look forward to publically (sic) sharing the entire story at an appropriate time. Until then, I humbly ask for everyone’s patience. I know that I am accountable for my actions, and I look forward to communicating with my constituents in the near future on this matter.”

… While he is in jail, presumably, over having had a few too many alcoholic drinks, the Florida House continues with the help of his good legislative aide.

Times tables, like second grade math, come handily during troubled times where representatives fail to perceive.  “Remember the ALAMO!” The Texas battle cry had greater effect in time, in Texas’ sovereignty, and in United States’ annexation.

Perhaps, Mr. Eagle should fire the legislative aide, not without cause.  Admitting accusing and arresting a man is serious.  That the public takes readily well.  Nevertheless, to say that making better decisions is bloody better – already – has waived the U.S. Constitution Fifth Amendment in the highest degree of self-incrimination.

Backtracking down the linear path to the beginning of Mr. Eagle’s lustrous career, the constituent goes shortly to the turn in his obscured drinking habits.

The style of the Republican man in the modern world is to chirp the good of this world for all to see that he is.  Then he commits the crime.  Awkwardly, the Republican moves his style to whine all the bad of this world for all to see that he is not.  Times tables get worse: as it moves from one to two to three: 2 x 1 is two; then 2 x 2 is four; and, so on, the constituent keeps adding two more addends of troubles.

What would the constituent call the trouble: hypocrisy or timing tables?  The constituent is not happy at all.  No, hypocrisy just will not do.  That is like buying an Arab government – too easy, will work, not challenging enough.  Inquisitively, is the easier the staking out a defense attorney?  The constituent is speaking bigotry by now.

For example, taking the Alamo, what did the conscripts do?  Hardly, they bloody well fought to the last man.  So shall the constituent hopes the Rep. Eagle.  Rewriting the legislative aide’s disclaimer, timing tables work better.

“I was arrested in Tallahassee [yes, the capital of Florida] and accused of driving under the influence of alcohol,” Representative Eagle wrote [yes, Florida House]. “I believe I drove under the influence of alcohol.  I know that I had endangered the lives of other drivers and pedestrians [yes, tell it like it is] and had risked damaging property.  I intend to tell my legal counsel to bug off [yes, be courageous], and rather instruct him to look for ways to improve my behavior with the local municipality.  I look forward to publicly sharing the entire story, as it develops wasting no time [yes, act like a legislator]. Until then, I humbly ask for everyone’s forgiveness, [yes, the least]. I know that I have disappointed my constituents for my actions, and I look forward to communicating with my constituents immediately [yes, remember the times tables] on this matter.”

Do not the constituents hate it when Florida House hypocrisy and times tables get between them?  Rep. Eagle will not want to lose and he thinks he understands why.  Eventually, though, Rep. Eagle will lose and not understand why.

Epilogue:  Hire the worst legislative aide possible in the written world of excuses.  He might hit the jackpot on the times tables.

An Early Warning: The British Obama is Coming.

Defend the Modern World

Chuka-Umunna-the-Labour-c-001

There is a widely shared belief in the drinking rooms of Westminster Village that a certain Chuka Umunna MP (Streatham, labour) is headed for the top of British politics.

The child of a Nigerian father and Irish mother, Umunna, 35, is already considered the country’s leading ‘black’ politician and has created around himself an aura of excitement that will be all too familiar to our friends across the pond.

Umunna is so often described as the ‘British Obama’ that the lazy racism of the term is overlooked and only the positive insinuations allowed to burn through.

And I suppose Umunna is the British Obama, at least in the sense that he is ‘black’, young and – most importantly of all- a potentially devastating weapon for the Left.

To understand why he holds such value, it is necessary to look deeper into the Liberal mindset, past the velvet-curtain of virtue and…
