UN-AUGURATION Special protest recap --by Mary Titus 22 Jan 2005 Anti-war protester arrested in Clearwater for carrying sign that looks a lot like THIS ONE By Carol Schiffler 23 Oct 2005 (FL) "On Saturday, October 22, a peaceful demonstration at the corner of Curlew Road and U.S. 19 in Clearwater attracted no less than five squad cars due to the presence of a sign deemed 'obscene' by some anonymous motorist that phoned in a complaint. In yet another display of spectacularly heavy-handed police tactics, the protester was arrested instead of merely being asked to put down his sign." [Must see photo!

Dems Protest Scalia Visit
About 75 people, some holding signs that read "Never Forget Selection 2000'' and "Injustice Scalia'' gathered outside the hotel where Scalia was speaking before a gathering of judges, elected officials and lawyers attending the 12th annual St. Thomas More Society of South Florida dinner. For
beleaguered election official, butterfly ballot won't go away LePore
admits that "there obviously was something wrong with the ballot.''
But the woman who glances nervously toward the sanctuary while being
photographed outside St. Ann's without notifying a priest, says she's
"not really guilty'' about what happened.
Florida
Democrats launch ad campaign calling for Jeb Bush's defeat - "It's
interesting (the president) steps his toe into the western reaches of
Florida -- as far away from South Florida as he can get and still be
in Florida. If he had guts he'd go to South Florida," said Bob
Poe, chairman of the Florida Democratic Party. "We believe the
(2002) campaign has already begun."
