I read your article "Reality bites, so go vote for Mobility 20/20", and found it to
be somewhat "interesting". After reading your article, I found myself asking the
following questions:

Mike - what were you thinking??

Does Mike really believe in Mob 20/20?

Did Mike read the Mob 20/20 "Plan"?

Did Mike read the ballot language closely? If yes, did Mike see any accountability
in the language or just a blank check to the Orange County Tax and Spend Committee? Mike - what were you thinking??

Does Mike understand what Mob 20/20 is really going to do - light rail and more
tolls - not road improvements that are already funded?

Does Mike know that while Orange County is providing estimates of $41 million per mile for light rail, while the national average is $68 million per mile?

Does Mike remember that Orange County estimated the cost of the courthouse at $60 million, but in reality it cost taxpayers $220 million?

Does Mike know that rail carries about 20% of the passenger volume as one highway lane? Mike - what were you thinking?

Does Mike really want tolls on Interstate 4? If yes, Mike - what are you thinking??

Does Mike know that the FDOT currently rates I-4 at a service level of "F" (as in
FAILING) and AFTER MOB 20/20 and the new I-4 Toll Lanes AKA "Lexus Lanes", FDOT reports that I-4 WILL STILL BE AT A SERVICE LEVEL 'F'? How can this be a good thing for Orange County transportation? This is a lousy rate of return for our tax dollar investment! Mike - what were you thinking??

Doesn't Mike know that it would be less expensive to remove the tolls from the E/W 408 than to widen Colonial Drive? Not to mention it would also be much better for our environment. Mike - what were you thinking??

Does Mike really believe anything the Orange County Chairman says? An individual that is owned and controlled by the SIGs (e.g. HBA, Darden Restaurants, etc, etc. etc.)? An individual that refuses to debate the issue with his constituents that oppose the tax increase. If yes, Mike - what are you thinking??

WHAT WAS THE REAL REASON MIKE VOTED FOR MORE TAX ABUSE? Any reasonable person would have to assume that Mike has lots of money to waste and/or Mike enjoys being stuck in traffic? What other reason could there? Why would any reasonable and informed voter support more tax abuse in Orange County (unless of course, you are part of a SIG that has paid (AKA "contributed") monies to Mob 20/20 in the anticipation of getting the $$government contracts$$ and/or easy/uncontested Orange County Commission votes for more $$uncontrolled growth$$)? There is absolutely no logical reason for supporting the MOB 20/20 Plan. So, Mike, please explain your real reason for supporting more tax abuse in Orange County. Mike, please explain what were you thinking?? Did you simply surrender to the real "forces of darkness"? I look forward to your response.

One last question.............

So Mike, how much are you willing pay for warm, frozen swamp land on the north pole?

Mike if you truly believe in Mob 20/20 - then I think I can find some nice, warm,
frozen, swamp land on the north pole to sell you!

It is very apparent that you Mike Thomas, are willing to believe anything and buy anything!! I look forward to the chance to "swindle" you - Whoops - Excuse me - I really meant to say "do business" with you!

For the record........
As a person of high ethics and integrity, I would not swindle you or anyone else -
including the elected crooks. The fact that elected crooks can easily scam and
swindle a trusting public doesn't mean it is the right thing to do. It only proves
that they have no ethics or integrity. Voters should not be so willing to trust
those elected/hired/entrusted to protect their interests. Just look at the various
elected crooks in Central Florida government today - you don't have to look very
far. With representation like this, who needs enemies??

While it is too late for you Mike - the following message is for the other readers
of this email.........

OCTOBER 7TH (OR SOONER) - VOTE AGAINST MORE TAX ABUSE IN ORANGE COUNTY
A vote against MOB 20/20 is a vote for ethics and accountability in government!!

Sincerely,
Sally L. Baptiste
