Are you afraid to make reservations in Florida because of the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico? There are many great destinations that haven’t been affected by the spill. The Tampa St Petersburg area is still oil free and hopefully will stay that way. Clwarwter, Sarasota and other popular west Gulf coast destinations haven’t been affected.

The Atlantic coast including Daytona Beach, Cocoa, Cocoa Beach, and Melborne are great vacation destinations. Further south there’s Ft. Lauderdale, Vero Beach, Miami, and Miami Beach. Further south are the beautiful Florida Keys with a world of activities to enjoy.

 The worlds’ most popular destination is Walt Disney World and the on site resorts that have something for everyone in the family. There are the theme parks, championship golf courses, water sports and night time entertainment for the whole family.

 Come on down to Florida, There are lots of unspoiled and beautiful beaches to enjoy. There are theme parks. And there’s Cape Canaveral where you can watch one of  the last shuttle flights. Make your plans now.

The tide brought our nations’ worst environmental disaster to the Florida beaches today.

 It is heartbreaking to witness this tragedy unfold. There have been eleven men killed, never to return to their families. Before the flow of oil is stopped and the head of BP gets his life back there is no telling how many human lives will be ruined.

 How many acres of marshland and pristine beaches are ruined for countless generations no one bothers to forecast.

 How many birds and animals will die an oil soaked death no one will estimate.

 How many fishermen will be put out of business no one knows. How many motels and restaurants will close  because  tourists won’t come to an oil soaked beach no one knows.

 Why shallow water permits to drill in the shallow waters of the Gulf are still issued I don’t know. Obviously if you drill closer to the shore and have a disaster the oil will reach shore sooner.

 We as Americans need to tell the politicians in Washington D.C. to stop the lunacy of allowing our precious resourses to be trashed. Stop the drilling in the Gulf of Mexico and get out of bed with the executives of Big Oil.

The oil from the blown up BP rig is still flowing unabated into the Gulf of Mexico. How much is flowing daily no one seems to know. It has now washed up on the beaches and wetlands of Louisiana, Missisippi, Alabama, and Florida.

 Obama and the Washington D.C. politicians issued another permit to drill off the coast of Louisiana in spite of no one having a clue how to stop the destruction of our beaches and wetlands. Why in the world would they do that? The only answer is either old fashioned stupidity or old fashioned greed. Either one is wrong for our country. The American people have been subjected to the wrong headed policies of the fools in Washington long enough.

It’s time for change, that’s the slogan that we heard during the last presidential election. We got some change and it was all wrong.

 We need to replace the professional politicians and the people who have never had to make a payroll or provide for their families without government handouts. We need to elect people with common sense. We need to elect people who haven’t eaten from the government trough all their lives. Those kind sell out our country every chance they get.
