You don't think that this is a story? This is what the Fla. press thinks is a frontpage headliner: Gannett sneaks a reporter into a private meeting where Jeb Bush comments on the "class-size" bill (if you don't know about this REAL scandal, con and McBride-press-DNC-teacher's union fraud please do a Freep search), saying he has a "dubious" plan to keep the bill from being enforced (thus saving every Floridian from a tax bill half the size of the existing budget for a bill that doesn't help the children), and the press ran with this "dubious" line for weeks...without telling the voters the truth about the "class-size" amendment.

According to today's Washington Post, McBride recently appeared on the radio program of former Miami-Dade NAACP chair Rev. Victor Curry. On the air, just before McBride's interview began, Curry verbally assaulted the Governor and his family, at one point saying that the Bush family and the bin Laden family were business "partners - seeking to profit from war."

"Curry could be heard on monitors around the small building saying that he would support 'a dog' rather than Jeb Bush. As for President Bush, he "should be impeached" for treason," the Post reported. Curry went on to say of the Bush family, "These people are on a neo-Nazi, right-wing mission against the American people." He concluded calling the Bush administration a "Godless, wicked regime."

And what was Bill McBride's response to all of this? Instead of condemning the remarks, McBride instead praised Curry. According to the Post, "Minutes later, McBride's gentle drawl came over the radio, assuring Curry that, as governor, "One of the people I'm going to listen to is you."


Sorry, any fair Fla. journalist would be all over both McBride and "Rev." Curry for this....FRONT PAGE.

FYI. So far, the Florida press is ignoring the Washington Post expose and the Bush/Brogan press release. Please let them know that the cover-up is "dubious."

Anyone who doubts what Ragtime is saying- just switch the characters in the story- and ask yourself, if JEB was going to be interviewed- and MCBRIDE was subjected to this kind of diatribe- whether the state press would be giving Jeb a pass for refusing to repuditate it.
NOT!!!!

vollmond is probably a mcbride supporter.
If it had been Jeb, it would be trumpeted on the front page in every paper in the nation and on all newwork news.

Just like clinton's purjury and treason . "Nothing here, let's move on.

Now, thanks to clinton, North Korea not only has nuclear weapons , but the system to deliver them to Alaska and Hawii.
