In secret, behind locked gates, our Nation's Oldest City dumped a landfill in a lake (Old City Reservoir), while emitting sewage in our rivers and salt marsh. Organized citizens exposed and defeated pollution, racism and cronyism. We elected a new Mayor. We're transforming our City -- advanced citizenship. Ask questions. Make disclosures. Demand answers. Be involved. Expect democracy. Report and expose corruption. Smile! Help enact a St. Augustine National Park and Seashore. We shall overcome!

CONFEDERACY OF DUNCES IN ST. AUGUSTINE, FLORIDA
You want environmental racism? We got it, right here in our Nation's Oldest City.
You want corruption? We got it right here in St. Augustine and St. Johns County.
You want excessive use of deadly force, with people disabled and dead because of it? We got it.
You want wildly excessive "development" ruining our marshes, land and water? Yes. One of the fastest-growing areas in Florida.
You want taste? No way. Local developers' taste is in their mouths.
You want fiscal conservativism? Nope. The local machine consists of wastrels.
You want honesty? No way. The local newspaper is in bed with the crooks.
You want sanctimonious, back-slappin', Gay-bashin', race-baiting, corporation-coddling Reichwing scoundrels? Yes.
You want to see an election year campaign where real issues are raised?
Stay tuned. The ancien regime in City Hall and the Courthouse is under siege.
WILLIAM B. HARRISS and his empty-headed boy-toy, Sheriff DAVID SHOAR, are under scrutiny.
Foreign-funded "developers" are in bankruptcy court and cutting loose their tired retainers.
Admiral Yamamoto said after Pearl Harbor he was afraid that all he had done was to "awake a sleeping giant." The vicious varmints who stole Florida's election in 2000 and stole our democracy from us here in St. Johns County are being held accountable.
