ORBITZ CEO Propagandizes foi U.S. Rep. JOHN LUIGI MICA

ORBITZ CEO JEFF CLARKE's mash note to Rep. JOHN LUIGI MICA claims, Fortunately for Orlando, U.S. Rep. John Mica, the ranking Republican on the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure, is a determined advocate for the travel and tourism industry that is so important to this region, the state of Florida and the nation.


This uninformed statement is untrue.

If MICA cared about tourism in his District, he'd introduce the St. Augustine National Historical Park, National Seashore and National Scenic Coastal Parkway Act of 2009.

People in Orlando (and St. Augustine) can think for themselves without propaganda from JEFF CLARKE, the CEO of ORBITZ. See below.

JEFF CLARKE is a known Republican who dances and drinks in public with other known Republicans, and who has written checks to RUDOLPH GIULIANI's Presidential campaign and the NATIONAL REPUBLICAN SENATORIAL CAMPAIGN COMMITTEE.

People in Orlando (and St. Augustine and elsewhere in our 7th Congressional District) can think for ourselves.

We're unpersuaded by Republican propaganda from JEFF CLARKE, the CEO of Orbitz, a known Republican who dances and drinks in public with other known Republicans, a campaign contributor who last year wrote thousands of dollars of checks to RUDOLPH GIULIANI's Presidential campaign and to the NATIONAL REPUBLICAN SENATORIAL CAMPAIGN COMMITTEE.

U.S. Rep. JOHN LUIGI MICA is no friend of tourism. JOHN LUIGI MICA has for several years refused to introduce the proposed St. Augustine National Historical Park, National Seashore and National Scenic Coastal Parkway Act of 2009, or explain his position. MICA lacks interest and leadership.

Florida's future requires thoughtful Orlando Sentinel readers (and other people) who will elect thoughtful leaders -- a "Green Congress."

We need a congressperson who will promote environmental and historic tourism, honoring Florida's 500th anniversary (and St. Augustine's 450th) in 2013 and 2015 by preserving our precious environmental and cultural heritage. Faye Armitage has the "right stuff" to promote eco-tourism, not just "executive tourism."

What do you reckon?
