Wow! Lou Dobbs had a long segment on BBV and confronted FL SoS
I heard it on satellite radio on my way home from work. Lou was awesome. He asked Glenda Pukewhoever (SoS) how they were going to handle a close election which would mandate a recount of the votes. The Puke said the voters intent was ALWAYS known on the BBVs, and someday, BUT NOT NOW, the technology would exist to produce paper receipts!! I'm puking while laughing at that one! Anyway go to the CNN transcripts and read if you didn't get to see, or hear, it.

2. Glenda Hood, a Kate Harris wannabe, at least Cruella had
a pedigree, Hood is just a mut! :evilgrin:

heres some history on here, note the (Dis) was mine....

The(Dis)Honorable Glenda E. Hood
Florida Secretary of State

Governor Jeb Bush appointed Orlando Mayor Glenda Hood as Secretary of State effective February 2003. She leads the Department of State as it transitions from an elected constitutional office to an appointed Governor’s agency. As Secretary of State she is responsible for the Department’s Division of Administrative Services, Division of Corporations, Division of Cultural Affairs, Division of Elections, Division of Historical Resources, and the Division of Library and Information Services. In addition, the Secretary of State is Florida’s chief elections officer and chief cultural officer.

Governor Bush has charged Secretary Hood to work with Enterprise Florida and the Agency for Workforce Innovation in developing the state’s strategic economic development plan. She is also involved with Florida’s Free Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA) in its quest to encourage international partnerships among the 34 countries of the Western Hemisphere. Secretary Hood also serves as an ex officio member of the Base Realignment and Closure Advisory (BRAC) Council.

Prior to her appointment as Secretary of State, Glenda Hood was elected the first female Mayor of the City of Orlando in 1992 and served three terms. In the fall of 2001, Governor Jeb Bush appointed then Mayor Hood as chair of Florida’s Domestic Security Advisory Panel, a core group of leaders from around the state, to advise him on Florida’s security issues. In early 2002, she invited Florida mayors to join Governor Bush, then Governor Tom Ridge and current Secretary of Homeland Security, along with the Florida Domestic Security Advisory Panel, for a Statewide Security Summit.
In April 2002, President Bush commended Hood for establishing a Citizen Corps, a new initiative that creates opportunities for individuals to volunteer for disaster preparedness programs in their communities.<snip

I am gearing up for the campaign, going to offer up whatever I can to help Kerry/whoever. I gave your name a shout to another poster recently, her name is Mari333, I told her that her posts reminded me of you. She is a pistol, and BUSH is a four letter word in her book. Hey it really is a four letter word, whata know about that!

:hug:

On Edit: Say I have been seeing a lot of new Florida posters around here lately, I love it!

10. After she came into office the state internet
...sites now called myflorida.com went to shit. This outsourced internet service is so awful it ought to be called information blackout.com. Soon it will be like Delaware, the corporatist paradise where you can't find out a damn thing about any business or any branch of government.

11. Actually it should be called Jeb's Florida.com, You can find out
Edited on Mon Mar-08-04 09:55 PM by Rebellious Republica
all the great things that this POS has done for himself, I mean Florida! Here is a good grassroots site, it is the anti- myflorida.com site. Its called www.whoseflorida.com. It can be a little tricky to navigate, but it is worth the effort. I highly recommend the "Government Insults" and "Whats New" pages. It also has a searchable archive. Happy reading, RR
