It did not surprise me to see a letter like the one written by Dallas Dunlap in which he basically blames the Republicans for wrecking the United States. After all, in the world of Dallas Dunlap, Frances Earl and Ted Rall, Republicans are evil and Democrats are the saviors of mankind. ...more

This is a quote from the Tampa Tribune on Sept. 24. It came from the mouth of Karen Peoples, who has been the Tampa Housing Authority Commissioner since 1998 and she has, by this article, lived in this residence since 1984. The rent payment Ms. Peoples was responsible for was a mere $26 per month and the article states she was $58 in arrears. She stated she had nowhere to go. The article stated that the authority had been trying to work with Ms. Peoples since January.

It's fun to read all the different people writing about the change in the political playing field. Oh my gosh! A woman as vice president who is a mother, activist, as well as a common sense person? They will attempt to make her look foolish, stupid and put anything out there that could discredit her in any way shape or form. After all, this is the dirty politics that are being played today with both sides. I, or most of us, wish to be informed voters and have to sort through all the hype, lies and just poor judgment that the political media can conjure up. ...more
