Marco Island Area Association of Realtors too cheap to pay for an ad? Maybe you should make a donation to a charity equal to what this would have cost any responsible business on the island.

Many complained of the odor of dead tuna. It might be wise for you to up your hygiene regimen.
Oh my..........They just discovered a pile of Klaus' soiled Depends! (:-)
Klauspecker, if you are an example of foreign influence the answer is no - HELL NO!
The universe never ceases to amaze. Comets, asteroids, meteoroids - then came the hemorrhoids - voila Klaus & Paradouch*!
This offers an opportunity to prepare for a memorial to Klaus. A proposal is on the table that he be buried in the dog park with his butt above ground. Why you ask? So folks have a place to park their bikes when they come to wiz in his honor. Anyone, class, anyone, Bueller?
.......and here I thought it was just Klaus passing gas, yet again!
"Blessed are they that do His Commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and wh***mongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie." Revelation 22:14-15
He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone..... John 8:2-11
To those that chose to denigrate OUR police force, may I suggest you get some cheese to go with your whine. MIPD deserves our respect 24/7. It appears that some of you would like to sky dive wearing a parachute made by the low bidder.
Perhaps you Obamabots should read the Fact Check report on the SOTU. BS CON 10!
God's grace and blessings for Mr. Pfeil's family and friends during this difficult time.
May those who chose to be crude and classless learn about manners and respect, as it is apparent you were never taught how to act.

If Republicans were looking for a superior candidate, they’ve found it in Ryan. His maiden speech as the GOP vice-presidential candidate was perfectly pitched:
We won’t duck the tough issues . . . we will lead!
We won’t blame others…we will take responsibility!
We won’t replace our founding principles . . . we will reapply them!
Echoes of Ronald Reagan at his best.
It should be no secret that the Liberals in this country can’t compete with the raw brain power of the Conservative party (even though there isn’t one). They (libs) have been heard crying for networks such as Fox and other non-Liberal media sources to be shut down, stopped dead in their tracks for some time now. Conservatives tend to worship God, not government. Conservatives tend to be Christians.
This pisses off the Libs to no end. How dare they not worship us and submit to our deity!! With this in mind, why should Fox or other right-wing media sources be closed down for good when they spread truths, not lies as does the liberal main stream media, which is completely controlled by the Obama Administration?
The American main stream media is nothing less than the slave of a federal government and a guy who calls himself president who thirsts for the blood of more and more power. I am sick of watching this administration dismantle my country brick by brick, while continually tossing fuel on the fire of racial tensions that are already burning out of control. Racial tensions and race wars fueled by the presidential puppets called the main stream media and those like Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton and others who feed upon it like a three course meal. Just a passing thought….

It was a picture of a headstone that said I Am Democrat and I Still Vote! Hope no one finds offense with the facts.
Oh my. A benign picture offends. Progressives, Obungabots and dems sure have a double standard. They attack 24/7 with lies and that is acceptable.
in response to August8: Genuine is consistantly on target, Klaus need to move to Chicago or Germany, somewhere.

in response to KlausStoertebeker: What a great statement. Packed with wisdom. I guess you can give me a simple answer of my simple question. Why is America managed by just 18 Presidents from the Republican side since George Washington? Just for your personnel information. He was the first President of AMERICA.

These are dangerous days for America. We face enormous challenges at home and gathering threats from abroad - and just when the situation requires us to return to the proven traditions of our history, Obama and the Liberal Democrats are moving us in the opposite direction, pushing the wrong values and policies.Liberalism suffers from a form of moral atrophy, which manifests itself in the inability to distinguish between good and evil.

I have finally figured out the real difference between a liberal Democrat and a conservative Republican. The difference is that a liberal Democrat will lie, spin and cheat with a smile knowing that 50 percent of the voting public isn’t smart enough to see through it. Need I go on?
Leave it to hard-core Democrats not to be able to recognize an obvious joke. Obama said that he was going to lower the ocean level, so he must be responsible for the drought since he can change the weather.
I saw a Democratic-sponsored ad which states that in 2010 Romney paid 14 percent in taxes on millions of dollars. Where did that tax info come from? Harry Reid’s secret source said Romney paid no taxes for the past 10 years. Which untruth are we to believe?
Fox News falsely implied Obama curtailing military voting in Ohio. Propaganda, plain and simple. In 2008, everyone could vote three days early. The Ohio Republicans passed a bill taking those rights away from everyone but the military. The Obama campaign sued, because tiered voting is unconstitutional. They want the early voting opened back up to everyone. As for Fox, the company is owned and its agenda controlled by an Australian billionaire. Think he’s primarily concerned with the best interests of the United States?
Bain poured $100 million into the old Armco steel plant in Kansas and it kept the GST plant open for eight years before it had to be closed. They also invested in Steel Dynamics in Indiana, which now employs 6,000 workers. Bain and Romney are the good guys, not just a golfing party planner who can read a teleprompter.
The reason Obama wants to outlaw the burning of coal is because he wants his sculpture done on Mount Rushmore.
Where are all the jobs? We need jobs here in the United States. Maybe if Romney had never sent jobs overseas and factories overseas, we’d have something here in the U.S. Let’s put the blame where it belongs on the Republican Party.
Mr. President, why do you dislike this country so much?
After reading the comments, I can only come to one conclusion: Democrats are just too stupid to be allowed to vote.
Disdain for the PoliceDisdain for the Firefighters and EMSDisdain for the senior citizensYou know who you are.You in all probability have disdain for America based on your infantile and obnoxious behavior.Could it be you are all students of Alynsky and Obama?

Get back to us when you learn to spell. As regarding the council, use your right to vote. Concerning Chief Hunter's compensation; why don't you muster up the courage and go to headquarters and ask him in person.
Rolo, I suck up to no one! Further I have no affiliation with the MIPD. My upbringing is behind my respect for all who serve. Have a nice day.
GGator, in spite of your lack of respect and class, Chief Hunter and the entire MIPD are committed to protecting and serving those of your ilk. Kudos and a firm salute to the MIPD!
NAPLES -
Naples Community Health is fighting to keep its Medicare provider status after a state investigation finds conditions there posed a threat to patients.
The Agency for Healthcare Administration launched its investigation after the death of 80-year-old Paul Anderson.
The Marco Island man died after waiting more than an hour to be taken by ambulance from one NCH facility to another.
AHCA's findings total more than 30 pages and highlight some major deficiencies. While most of the extreme issues have been fixed, more inspections are coming.
Paul Anderson was a family man, who loved spending time on the water with his grandson, David. On October 2, the 80-year-old felt dizzy, and went to NCH-owned Marco Island Urgent Care for help.
"You just wouldn't think something like that would happen," David Anderson told NBC2.
Anderson waited more than an hour to be taken to the hospital. The paramedic running the NCH ambulance showed up 20 minutes late to work, and EMS engines were called off by NCH's transport director.
We now know in addition to those delays, hospital staff in charge that morning violated state statute by not transferring Anderson to the closest hospital. AHCA's investigative report states "the physician did request the patient be transferred to Physician Regional Hospital" on Collier Boulevard, but staff were not aware of the statute, and hospital policy, which required them to do so.
Instead, they took Anderson six miles further away to NCH in downtown Naples, where he later died.
Because of a billing dispute between Collier EMS and NCH, a county directive stated NCH would be required to provide all transport between its facilities, except for trauma alerts. NCH owes the county $178,742 for previous hospital-to-hospital transports. The hospital system argues that the county should be billing the patients.Patient transport from the NCH Marco Island Healthcare Center has been a problem in the past, according to a Marco Island Fire Rescue Department report.
