Oct 10, 2008 - The problem with this Sheriff is that (1) he was in uniform, (2) he along with McCain and Palin are trying to incite rage, division towards a presidental candidate and Obama supporters.

Oct 11, 2008 - Now, Lewis is castigating McCain in the harshest of terms. As public figures with the power to influence and persuade, Sen. McCain and Gov. Palin are playing with fire, and if they are not careful, that fire will consume us all," Lewis said today. "They are playing a very dangerous game that disregards the value of the political process and cheapens our entire democracy. We can do better. The American people deserve better.
buddyboyofcanada Says:
Oct 11, 2008 - Lewis's sharp words may be dismissed as those of a partisan Democrat in a campaign season. But the former head of SNCC and hero of Selma is somebody who McCain has lavished praise upon over the years, including admiring him in a book on courage and bravery and repeatedly invoking Lewis's name in public appearances. Appearing with Barack Obama at a forum at Rick Warren's Saddleback Church in August, McCain included Lewis as one of "three wise men" he would consult as president.
buddyboyofcanada Says:
Oct 11, 2008 - "He can teach us all a lot about the meaning of courage and commitment to causes greater than our self-interest," McCain said of Lewis.

Oct 13, 2008 - Wow, freedom of speech, and geez, I'm kind of confused here. What is the big deal about someone using their middle name? Ahggg...politics. Ridiculous.

Oct 13, 2008 - By wearing department uniform at a political rally, Nazi with badge scott is representing the entire Lee County Sheriff Department. The next time scott wants to go to a rally, he should do so in plain cloths. The uniform represent the entire department.I hope he there is a suspension pending for scoot.

Oct 19, 2008 - I thought it was pretty funny they got so mad about using his middle name. Obama can't help it he's got a terrorist name, that his brother lives in a terrorist country, that he went to a church that calls white people "whiteys". He can't help it.
buddyboyofcanada Says:
Oct 19, 2008 - rdrice1119 King Hussein of Jordan was not a terrorist. His brother is not a terrorist and all religionists are mentally ill including McCain But McCain isn't responsible because of this stone age mentality nor is it mcCain's fault that his wife made 4.5 million this year and is worth more than 100 million which makes him totally out of touch with ordinary working Americans.
buddyboyofcanada Says:
Oct 19, 2008 - McCain also is not responsible for graduating at the bottom of his class, crashed several planes and spent 5 years in jail as an enemy combatant. Such are the dictates of unfortunate chance.
buddyboyofcanada Says:
Oct 20, 2008 - WOW, Some Terrorist eh! After the death of his girlfriend, Ayers and his current wife, Bernardine Dohrn, spent the 1970s as fugitives running from the FBI. Bernadine Dohrn and Bill Ayers turned themselves in on December 3, 1980, in New York, with substantial media coverage. Charges were dropped for Ayers. Dohrn received three years probation and a $15,000 fine. WOW Some Terrorists eh!

Oct 21, 2008 - Wow I am from Lee County FL and lol yeah Mike Scott is known for being a proverbial foot in mouth. He's is a ok sheriff but just a public idiot when on camera an in his "element" .
ufmo Says:
Oct 21, 2008 - Oh come on, Mike Scott implied his name with 9-11 meaning he is Muslim and he was part of the act. He knew what he was doing.
THEMASTEROFYOU2000 Says:
Oct 25, 2008 - a sherriff is NOT a federal employee, if they want to use this then no senator, no person of military career nor may any part time nor hired worker of a politician may make any political statement..due process eh?
buddyboyofcanada Says:
Oct 25, 2008 - MASTEROFYOU READ THE HATCH ACT SO YOU WILL KNOW WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT. Obviously you do not know what constitutes Federal employee by Hatch definition Opinions are useless from you without knowledge. KNOW you don't.
THEMASTEROFYOU2000 Says:
Oct 25, 2008 - of course I do, believe me, lol, it states that an incumbant cannot use federal paid time nor resorces to campain for one's self or another, like when Jophn Kerry used his office funds for mailing and internet spam, he was fined 350thousand, or when Gore went to the buddist temple and recieved thousands in donations, on a "diplomatic mission", and then later denied he knew it was illegal, thats the hatch act........off duty anyone can and may speak their mind, so go read it again, fed employees
buddyboyofcanada Says:
Oct 25, 2008 - The question is - did he use his position as sheriff to influence an election? If so, he could be in violation of a federal election law called the Hatch Act. A complaint sent to the U.S. Office of Special Counsel alleges that Scott violated the Hatch Act because his agency receives federal dollars, and Scott was engaging in political activity while on duty and in uniform.
buddyboyofcanada Says:
Oct 25, 2008 - If Sheriff Scott is found in violation of the Hatch Act, the feds can pull two years salary worth of federal funding - the equivalent to $300,000 for the Lee County Sheriff's Office. The Lee County Sheriff's Office receives more than $1 million in federal grant money.
buddyboyofcanada Says:
Oct 25, 2008 - THEMASTEROFYOU2000 May I suggest that you sent a statement to the Federal Investigators on behalf of Scott and tell them that he is not a Federal Employee in receipt of Federal funds, was not using his uniform campaigning for McCain and maybe the investigation could be wrapped up right away with your submission eh?
buddyboyofcanada Says:
Oct 25, 2008 - Some also are questioning whether Scott violated the county code of ethics. The statute says no county government employees are allowed to wear any uniform or clothing that would identify them as such while engaging in a political campaign not sponsored by the county, even if they are off-duty.
THEMASTEROFYOU2000 Says:
Oct 25, 2008 - better time could be spent in investigating and convicting the democrats who testified before congress during the firing of Raines as head of fannie mae, opening stating on the senate record that raines was in control and that the republicans who were demanding regulation were being racist. Now we see what the democratic party has done for the whole world, and yet who is investigating this?, it makes enron look like a box of craker jacks, they use investigation as a political tool
buddyboyofcanada Says:
Oct 25, 2008 - THEMASTEROFYOU2000As usual you are totally wrong in your dogmatic defense of the Republicans. but harken here to this recent news story. WASHINGTON Freddie Mac secretly paid a Republican consulting firm $2 million to kill legislation that would have regulated and trimmed the mortgage finance giant and its sister company, Fannie Mae, three years before the government took control to prevent their collapse. Hard for you to swallow I know but it's all over the internet since 20 Oct 2008. Sorry.

fovea29 Says:
Nov 2, 2008 - whats really sad is the little kids behind him cheering that in the crowd(watch other videos of this). This guy broke the law by endorsing a political figure while in uniform (Hatch Act) and I hope he reaps the rewards of that. Makes me ashamed when people like this are in uniform of any kind. Also what a tool that other cop is at the end of the video

Nov 4, 2008 - God bless Sheriff Mike Scott, who is too smart to be involved in the "TRUTH SQUADS" for oo00oobama (that are all wearing sheriff's uniforms) limiting our freedom of speech! McCain/Palin '08

Oct 10, 2008 - Rebublican greed and avarice on Wall Street has caused the stock markets to plunge. When companies go green the markets will grow again bigger than ever. GM and big auto makers are down? Poor babies who have sucked so much money out of the system and hoarded it or spent it, taking advantage of the mobility of the people, along with the oil companies. Go under or change into a Green Considerate Company. When you design mobility without an oil base machine, then you will realize the error of ways
