On WCOA This Morning......Talking Mean-Spirited, Petty, and Small Minded Attacks!



I'll be on WCOA's Good Morning Pensacola later this morning to discuss yesterday's Hatchet Piece Hit Job articles printed against me and several public officials and former candidates that were published in the Sunday edition.

A whole lot of FAKE NEWS.

I look forward to discussing what I felt was an unfair portrayal of the OLF 8 issue in general, and my position on this issue specifically.

Glaring omissions from the discussion on OLF 8, petty, mean, and unwarranted attacks on SOME political donors and SOME political candidates (not others, though), and a total LACK of any mention of the REASON the BCC began the process to acquire this OLF 8  property in the first place ($30 Million in Triumph Grant to help offset expenses and develop the site)--these will be addressed and discussed in this interview!

I went to 8,634 houses in my last election, 800+ in Beulah.  I know people are frustrated and want amenities and traffic infrastructure improved.  I also know these same residents DO NOT WANT any more high-density residential built on the field in Beulah--- because we can't take any more until we get our infrastructure improved.

Listen to this morning's interview, in its entirety, here.

This entire past few weeks not only locally but also nationally is a wake up call. Great people step up to the plate to serve such as yourself. Imperfect true, like Trump and others, we are in a different time with social media, public opinion, even trusted news sources are no longer viable. Think about it. Why buy a newspaper? So who is left to work there? PNJ? Who makes money? Consider the source. It time to go back to the basics. If some one wants change ..then vote. Perhaps there is wisdom in the old adage to not consider discussing politics and religion in public. Secret ballot..Silent Majority. Yes we see the ones that think free speech is the freedom to bitch. I know you have said and written over and over what is going on with OLF8 but the louder voice in the room didn't read it. She stood up in public thinking the beach access is about mouse tunnels. They don't realize how ridiculous they sound. Forgive them for they know not what they do. Remember who you are. But if you keep perpetuating this then you can also adjust your drama queen crown. Grow up.

You know we put up with Underhill going into his little pansy facebook group clamoring for affection. Note about 6 people buy into that. Rise above. Be the leader you are.
