WHAT FLORIDIANS SHOULD KNOW ABOUT CHARLIE CRIST
by QuestionGirl
(WMR) WMR’s intrepid sources in Florida report on some details about GOP gubernatorial candidate and current Attorney General Charlie Crist, or should we say Charlie Christodoulos.

Crist’s father, Charlie, Sr., legally shortened the family’s name in 1949, according to court records in Pinellas County, Florida. The elder Crist’s father emigrated from Cyprus to the United States in 1912. We have also discovered a bit more about Crist’s personal details, much of which have been obscured because of Crist’s status as a “law enforcement officer.” Under post-Patriot Act laws, personal details on law enforcement officers are blocked by special statutes.

WMR received the following article Friday from George Maurer, a Key West Florida radio talk show host. This article contains information that every Florida voter should know before casting their ballot before or on November 7.

“At the outset of this message, let me first get something off my chest. I-m a gay man who, never since I realized same more than 30 years ago, has ever denied same, and who served 30 years in the Army/Army Reserve. About Florida congressperson Mark Foley, I-ve found these past few days particularly troubling, especially so as I-m a progressive Democrat and very troubled about the HYPOCRISY of many of our Republican opposition.

Starting at the top, we have AWOL George W. Bush who constantly gives TV speeches in front of and with a picture background of military audiences. AWOL George’s only military background was a 6-year obligation with the Texas Air National Guard which he used to get a deferment from going to Vietnam, and from which obligation he was Absent Without Leave (AWOL) for the last couple of years of his tour. This same hypocrite has taken us to mammoth, unjustified, unpaid, prolonged war, killing hundreds of thousands of people. In the last couple of days, he and his hypocritical colleagues have enacted a military detainee bill which broadly defines “enemy combatants” and makes any US citizen or resident subject to same, without right of habeas corpus review, review only by an “enemy combatant review tribunal.” They have voted to pay for and construct a 300-mile fence between the US-Mexico 3,000 mile border.

Now we have Mark Foley. As an adult, I-ve never fooled around with underage males, let alone those over whom I-ve had some degree of power.

Now, even the most staunch of Republicans must know about Florida congressperson Mark Foley. But what about Charlie Crist (Jr?), Florida’s Republican candidate for Governor?
