Abraham Lincoln asked the President of the United States during the Mexican War, "where was the spot" where blood was first shed. He never got an answer. (Answer: Mexico).
At Wednesday's demonstration at his office in St. Augustine, let's ask arch-reactionary Congressman John Mica, "where is the spot" (or spots) where he would install oil refineries in Florida? Hint: Florida has no refineries now.
Retired oligopolist Starnes (see below) thinks he's cute with his smirking turkey act directed against Senator Obama, even affecting Ann Coulter's smarmy "B. Hussein Obama" hate speech. Perhaps Starnes will tell us where he wants the refineries.
Hint to Starnes: fax your plans to 904-471-9918.

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!
