This is the Blog post for Eric J Dirga PA. To the right you will see a list of “Current Blogs.” Feel free to comment on any of them – I will respond. Below are some comments that I just decided to put down in words. I believe you can comment on these as well. I really don’t think what I write or think about is that profound or that anyone in their right mind would care to take time to read it, however I do have a website that I am personally invested in and a blog definitely helps keep it humming. Please bear this in mind as you peruse the ramblings (I would much rather have a blog on Scuba Diving).

Oct 31, 2009 – Halloween comes and Halloween goes, just like every other holiday – like every other day. So cheer up and have fun – Happy Halloween!!!
Oct. 27, 2009 - Just had to comment on the ongoing congressional representative debacle we have going on in the 8th District. Alan Grayson has said some pretty controversial things lately that has his opponents pulling their hair out. Saying controversial things is not necessarily bad. Often times it is a good thing and, well, gets people thinking about something they may not have thought about before. Yeah, but in this case, Grayson just seems to be saying controversial things for no other reason than to be controversial. His comments lack an intelligent motive. We are already thinking about health care – did Grayson forget about his mock town hall meetings this past summer? What we need is some intelligent debate now – the pot is sufficiently stirred.
However, Grayson’s quips have not come without the attention of his opponents. The move is on to find opposition to Mr. Grayson’s congressional career before he can print his first “re-elect” posters that will soon litter the landscape. In a land of representative government, the term “representative” has little meaning. So powerful is the magnetism of the corruption in Washington that potential candidates see potential wherever the opposition is weak. Take Armando Gutierrez – he is a Miami real estate developer who feels that Grayson is vulnerable. So he has decided to move into the 8th Congressional District of Florida to qualify for his opposition campaign. Really?
Here is a bit of advice to Grayson and Gutierrez. Grayson, you have been elected to represent us. Most of us are not idiots so quit representing us like one. Gutierrez, I may not have voted for Grayson – a Congressional squatter himself as you hope to be – but I will not vote for another squatter either. Stay in Miami and leave Orlando alone.
