Danny Burgess, FLA (R) “Duke Energy Did Not Buy My Vote… Honest!”

&feature=youtu.be

Really the candidate Danny Burgess would “love to answer THAT question…” THREE Times but alas he never does. There is nothing more entertaining than watching a candidate squirm about campaign CA$H and the wink and a nod “obligations” that are always attached to it.

Danny, what turnip truck do you think that the voters fell off of to believe the malarkey that you are attempting to feed us. The mere ca$hing of THE CHECK represents tacit agreement with the benefactor. Watch in this short video as Danny denies this repeatedly.

Please K&R! Seniors, students, democrats, republicans, Tea Party, (yes, Tea Party!) came together yesterday for the 'Pitchfork Protest" against Duke. EVERYONE came together!

It was amazing! Word on the street is the energy company is totally pissed off with the Tea Party stance wanting alternative energy! YAY! We can do this.

But his guy must be stopped. Total puppet....

3. Danny Burgess (R) for Florida House District 38 IS a COMPLETE SHILL...

and he cannot even begin to explain himself. His whole family is in on this path to the money fountain. This is the pathetic state of what passes for democracy (Little D for Emphasis). I mean his nonsensical literature leads with LEADER SOLDIER HUSBAND FATHER! Two of which are inconsequential even though those last two are legitimate, they should not be criteria that are automatic qualifiers for a candidate... Anyone disagree?

4. The Leader Soldier Self Descripters are far more nebulous than the Husband Father claims

Danny Burgess Self Described: Leader... The only thing he has done is run as a REPUBLICAN where the entire electorate is nearly entirely REPUBLICAN in a small town in Florida populated by retirees and a lot of veterans. This "jump" to State House I saw coming several years ago. Then he runs for Mayor with the same group of mindless REPUBLICAN voters.

Danny Burgess Self Described: Soldier.... Danny states that "he was inspired by the events of September 11th 2001..." just as is EVERY OTHER REPUBLICAN POLITICIAN! But Danny fails to mention but you or I can easily calculate that he was at best 15 years old at the time of that tragic event.

Danny as "INSPIRED" as he was by 9/11 then unlike other soldiers/veterans that I have known instead of signing up for the Army or the Marine Corp right out of High School then goes about getting a BA in Political Science to be followed by going to Law School and then joining a Law Firm... THEN Danny Burgess decides FINALLY... to join The Army Reserve... as a Captain Judge Advocate. Yet Danny in political forums talks about being on the "FRONT LINES VS THE BACK LINES in the military... insinuating that he has spent some time in combat to his audience. What a slippery character! Any veteran who has actually spent time in combat with his/her life on the line should be incensed and outraged at the self absorbed and promoting public dialogue of this little WEASEL!

That kid is squirming and lying through his teeth. Look at the body language. It's great that somebody had the balls to call him on the carpet.
