This story is where I first started my relationship with Brad Blog.
I'm glad I found it and glad I've remaind a loyal Bradovian!
Thanks again Brad and all my fellow Bradovians for all you've done and what is yet to be accomplished!

Schwartznegger announced plans to rebuild California with concrete and steel which include plans to build more jails. Get out the jackhammer cause the terminator is gonna try to give himself a facelift. Look on the flag asshole. See the brown bear now U know where i live. Start a complete Federal investigation starting with the 2000 rigged Pres election, 911 as an inside job, the war in Iraq based on lies, 2004 rigged presidential election, the war against nature (the environment) including changing the rules of forestry and raping the public wildlands AND all the corrupt congressmen on the take from the corporate elite and voted accordingly. Get a Clint Eastwood type cowboy lawman to prosecute in front of a judge who is a real American (not a Bushit paid for hire cronie) so we can put all these bastards in jail!!! Change the system to eliminate corporate contribution and voting machines that pass a black box voting examination with a verifyable paper trail. Impeach Bush and Cheney immediately and waive the white flag in Iraq because our president lied and continues to lie.

Feeney told Yang Enterprises to bill the Florida D.O.T. "whatever you want" for software, which was a fraud against Florida's taxpayers. At the time he was a state representative, sworn by oath to protect Florida's constitution, and was also G.O.P. leader in Tallahassee.
Feeney said he had severed all connection with Yang to run for Congress. Yet his campaign office was next door to Yang's office in the same building, and documents showed he was still connected to them through his former law firm.
Feeney raised hundreds of thousands of dollars from contributors for his re-election campaign, then ran unopposed.
Feeney has never responded to Clint Curtis' allegations except to compare them to the search for Bigfoot, yet he threatened a reporter with legal action for the sin of asking him questions about those allegations.
Curtis passed a lie detector test. Feeney has never taken one.
Feeney held a Washington cocktail party, presumably paid for by leftover contributions from his unopposed run for reelection, to celebrate Dan Rather's ouster at CBS.
Oh, yes. He's also a liar and a cheat.

I wonder if they have the goods on Feeney.
The neoConvicts he as a neoCon elite con with have been wired during certain events (link here).
His cell phone records can be purchased (link here).
And FOIA requests are after it (link here).
His neoConness is getting out of favor with the madness of his cronies (link here).

Sorry if this offends any Toms out there. Please don't come after me with a tommy-gun.

Ugh...I gave up on ever exposing this guy a year ago when all of his criminal acts saw the light of day. I literally stayed awake nights waiting and hoping. I even remember when Mr.Curtis testified before Congress and I can find NO mention of it anywhere. I can't even find it in the Congressional Record!!! He is one of those whose ego will destroy him with no help from any of us! YUCK.

Not only is Feeney one of the dirtiest of the dirty politicians, but he is also willing to strike a woman.
Back in about 2000 in Tallahassee he got belligerently drunk at a local bar and when asked to leave he shoved the waitress. She went to the head waitress (my present girlfriend!) who went back to Tom and confronted him. She said that was no way to treat a woman and he would have to leave. Tom Feeney then shoved her "like a man" and she fell to the floor in the middle of this bar. He stormed out.
Brad, let me know if there is anything I can do to help bring this guy down.

I'm already on the case here with Tom Feeney.....I'm exposing this guy all over the place, the sonofabitchneocon stooge will not last.
Lets remember this is a war here and you're going to have to grit your teeth and suck it, these crooks in Congress on both sides of the aisle must taste the rule of law.

The Brad Blog
Dear American Bloggers,
I am the Democratic challenger to Rep. Tom Feeney here in District 24. All over Central Florida, I hear the voices of change. They’re saying they are tired of Congress serving the needs of big corporations, lobbyists and special interests instead of the folks back home. I have listened to those voices and learned from them.
Americans are struggling to pay these higher gasoline prices and it seems everywhere they turn, the cost of things keep going up. Many Americans are having a difficult time paying their bills and they want to hear honest debate about how they can afford healthcare for their families and still pay their bills.
Our foreign policy is in shambles and it will take many years of genuine concern to return America back to the country the rest of the world strived to become. Growing up as a military brat in Europe was a great experience and I remember our Dutch hosts placing American flags alongside their Dutch flags at their dinner table. Now we see thousands of Dutch protestors screaming at George Bush for misleading us into an ill-prepared war.
Restoring dignity to the Social Security debate is necessary to preserve this important, historical program. I’m proud to belong to the political party that proposed this vital legislation and I’m determined to protect it from greedy Wall Street stock brokers who only care about the bottom line and lining their pockets with billions of taxpayer’s dollars. There are several options proposed that can solve this insolvency issue.
I’m running for U.S. Representative because I believe it’s time that Congress had the integrity to address the practical everyday issues that affect every American – issues like: affordable healthcare for our families, a solid Social Security plan, a commonsense approach to energy conservation and environmental protection, and a strong national defense. Developing alternative energy sources will help us reduce foreign oil imports.
I believe we’re all Americans and it’s time Congress starts representing the true wishes of all Americans – Good Education, Affordable Healthcare, Dignity for Seniors and Safe Neighborhood and Reliable Energy sources to grow our economy.
Thank you,
Dr. Andy Michaud, DVM (Democrat) candidate
U.S. House of Representatives, Florida District 24

For Emma: Things have changed from a year ago.
Feeney's position isn't as strong as it was then.
BUSH'S POLL RATINGS: DOWN
TOM DELAY AS HOUSE LEADER: OUT
WALLY O'DELL AT DIEBOLD: OUT
ELECTRONIC VOTE FRAUD: EVEN JEB'S WORRIED
IMPEACHMENT: NOW ON THE TABLE
ABRAMOFF: A HUMAN DOMINO THEORY FOR G.O.P.
HOUSE ETHICS: AFTER IRAQ, #2 ISSUE FOR 2006
Keep the faith, Emma. If you'll pardon the pun, when this is all over we can build a monument to Feeney at Disney World and call it the "Statue of Limitations."

For Dr. Andy: Good luck and Godspeed your efforts.
If you'll pardon a light-hearted comment, I think your veterinary training could help. You're going up against a real snake, backed by a gang of wolves, all dressed in sheep's clothing.

I think now is the ripe time for Clint Curtis to come out of the woodwork, too. What he says will have more credence right now. When he first started saying his stuff, the GOP corruption had not yet surfaced like it is now.

Please keep up the pressure on Fenney. In a Florida Today letter to the editor, jan 10, 2006, he now claims that " In 2003, my office and the Ethics Committe were misled by Jack Abramoff on the financing of a trip to Scotland." Note that he accepts no personal responsibility for his actions. Correspondingly, he claimed to have donated to some unknown charity $1000 of the $4000 reported to have been received from Abramoff.
Considering his past reported drunken behavior, it may be time for some papparazzi to enlight us on his in nightly activities in Washington - A missing element on all political reporting and long overdue.
