Are Broward Democrats Playing Games With Ely High Scoreboard?

What do you think? Last minute wrench thrown in to sabotage Ely scoreboard leads to community outrage!

Ely parents and alum angry because they raised close to $60,000 for scoreboard. Taxpayers see more waste. District employees demand installation be done by well-connected construction interests.

This leads to a raucous board meeting where Republican board member(s) forced to take position that may hurt electoral prospects. Candidates in District 5 (home to Ely HS) get to demagogue and play hero. All coordinated by “consultants” with ties to board members and other politicians.

In other words, the same old bullsh*t.

Broward Democrats play games with your kids, your schools, and your money. They don’t care about the kids. It’s all about gaining an electoral advantage and helping their well-connected friends.

They’re banking on no one paying attention.

But people are paying attention…

Awake (UP) Broward: Democrat Insider Barbara Miller Isn’t Part Of The 99 Percent

1 Reply

On Tuesday, Barbara Miller, the ultimate Broward Democrat insider, joined Awake Broward Democrats and the Occupy Fort Lauderdale crowd at their Awake The State rally in Fort Lauderdale. They held signs and sang songs bemoaning the “one percent” and Republican politicians as the root of all evil. Lots of “we are the 99 percent” chants too.

But c’mon man. Barbara Miller? Really? Part of the 99%? The woman who’s had a hand in picking Broward judges and school board members for decades? The woman who spents more time vacationing in Europe than visiting the Sawgrass Mills mall? The “godmother” of vanished ex-school board member Jennifer Gottlieb? The good friend of lobbyist Neil Sterling?

Sorry, Ms. Miller may be nice. She may be powerful. But she definitely ain’t the 99 percent.

In this video, Tea Party Fort Lauderdale recognizes Ms. Miller and says hello. Lots of the Broward insiders are more recognizable these days. People are paying attention.

Does the 99% pick Broward Judges and School Board members? Nope.
