Here is One Fundraiser I am Sure to Miss. By Geniusofdespair

I know where I won't be on February 24th, at this Javier Souto Fundraiser. The Host Committee is supposed to entice you to come. Rarely do you see one that alienates you and discourages you from attending but here it is: A Fundraiser hosted by State Rep./lobbyist Erik Fresen and County Commissioner Joe Martinez, Ick.

I don't think it's only about Little Joe, it's about 'All of the Above' - Ick, ick, ick!

Little Joe is a bully. He even disrespected Commissioners from Coral Gables and South Miami telling then at a UDB hearing, You can wait like the rest of them. Go to his checkers speech on the right side of this page under news/blog link: "Defede: Martinez" -- hit on it, watch it.

And....we have 71 posts on Martinez. Read them.

Rep Fresen is turning out to be a really good legislator from Miami and you should find these things out before you just give him an ick.

He is a lobbyist. Lobbyists should not hold office. ICK.

yup well he certainly doesn't lobby the legislature he serves in so give me a break.

Agree a person with a history of lobbying has a hard time representing the people ever again and this guy has had some bad clients a lot of UDB stuff and Rodney Barreto And the Lowe's application:

We don't want a player in office. We have enough of those that don't represent the people you are obviously a friend of his.

Actually, if you check with the County Clerk, Erik Fresen is SUSPENDED from lobbying. Fine piece of lawmaker he is...

Who cares if he is suspended...he didn't renew, his history is enough isn't it? It tells you who butters his bread.

isnt it time for souto to retire...man oh man...sad part is, he will get re-elected in a landslide

Anonymous said...

so now its a crime to be a lobbyist.

It is a crime for a lobbyist to run for office.

Anonymous said...

The fact that he is suspended matters a lot. First, because he is still lobbying. His family runs charter schools in Miami-Dade County and he currently lobbies County Commissioners on their matters. Second, it shows that he can't even keep his own recordkeepping or follow other government's rules.

No, it is not a crime for a lobbyist to run for office

Anonymous said...

True, but it would be a crime to vote for him, yes?

Anonymous said...

Maybe it's time we properly pay our (not just $6k-$24K per annum) politicians and prevent any outside employment...no lobbying, now law practice, no consultant for Pharmed, no security contracting, no business development services..none of it. It time!

I thought this fundraiser was all about that sleepy commissioner from district 10, I'm not for Freshhen nor Little Joe, but let's keep the comments about the old man that sleeps on the dias.
Ick, ick, ick!!!!!!!
