    Your Florida Chamber of Commerce working for you?

    This commercial is currently running in Tallahassee in now. We're trying to determine if its running in any other areas today. I saw it this morning on ABC affiliate channel. Firefighters, police, and teachers featured prominently, and they didn't even ask our permission, imagine that!

    Fraternally,

    Gary Rainey, President
    Florida Professional Firefighters

    We've got to lead by example,'' said Haridopolos

    That's an incredible video. at 2 minutes 15 seconds Mike Haridopolos says "Lets reward the best teachers with higher pay". His boss Mark Wilson of the Florida Chamber says "Putting teachers first and putting kids first".

    Incredible hypocrisy from one who paid himself $152K in state funds to write a useless book and hired dozens of political operatives at 6 figure salaries.

    MICHAEL C. BENDER, Herald/Times Tallahassee Bureau - To help shrink state government, the new leaders of the Legislature have brought in a stable of advisors at six-figure salaries.
    In the House, incoming Speaker Dean Cannon has given salaries of at least $100,000 to 28 staffers. In the Senate, 33 will earn six figures under incoming President Mike Haridopolos.

    Both leaders say the pay is justified for their skilled workers, yet the numbers stand out in a state where average wages are stagnating, 1 million Floridians can't find work and Republican Gov.-elect Rick Scott wants to eliminate up to 6,000 state jobs.

    Haridopolos and Cannon, who must fill a projected $3 billion budget hole, said costs were trimmed elsewhere in the Legislature's budget. Haridopolos, for example, has consolidated numerous jobs with a stated goal of cutting $1 million from the Senate's $35.5 million budget.

    ``We've got to lead by example,'' said Haridopolos, R-Merritt Island.

    Try as we may, we just couldn't get the Florida Chamber of Commerce to be good guys and post our comments to their Youtube video.

    So we answered with two of our own:

    These ads are playing heavily in the Tallahassee market right now!
