Desperation has set in at the Ozzie deFaria for Congress campaign- earlier this week, Ozzie deFaria called Republican front runner Karen Harrington a “slut” after one of her supporters told deFaria that she would vote Harrington, and this was not an isolated incident.
This is the Facebook note left on Karen Harrington’s campaign page-
Karen,
I thought I would let the voter in the 23rd district know about a visit I had today from your opponent; DeFazio. As I was walking out of my Davie home, he walked up to me to hand me one of his brochures, and asked if he could speak to me. I replied, I was not interested, and that I was voting for Karen Harrington. He then said, your not interested in the mud slinging she is doing against me? I said, sir your the one doing the mud slinging. he got angry, and said loudly: Karen Harrington is a SLUT! I said, excuse me: Karen Harrington is a slut, that comment is exactly what I am talking about, your the one slinging mud. He got mad and he and the other three people in the SUV, sped off. This man has a problem with anger, and he is not what we need to replace Debbie WassermanSchultz with; On Angry person replacing another and one dirty bad mouthed politician replacing another.-Broward Resident
deFaria has actually been walking the district and visiting voters who have placed a “Harrington for Congress” yard sign in their front lawns, whereby he would attempt to impugn and discredit Harrington. When deFaria encountered resistance to his stump schtick, he would lose his tempter and storm off. One Southwest Ranches resident claims to have seen deFaria actually pulling Harrington for Congress yard signs out of the ground.
Harrington’s most recent mailer raises deFaria’s “anger management” issues, stating that he is “UNELECTABLE.”
Questions also remain about deFaria’s highly touted business acumen. There isn’t much documentation about deFaria’s business dealings subsequent to 2005, and there is reason to believe that even his personal residence is listed under his wife’s name. A quick property search in Broward County does not identify Ozzie deFaria as a home owner in Weston, Florida, only his ex-wife Elaine deFaria is listed as a property owner, but at a different address- not at deFaria’s disclosed home address.
In addition, deFaria has had questionable liens placed against him, both domestic and foreign.(Liens) deFaria is now being sued by a campaign vendor for stiffing him on a $23,000 bill. deFaria is dismissing this most recent lawsuit much like he has everything else, including his assault on his ex-wife Elaine in 2005 and the string of domestic violence incidents that led to his arrest in 2006 for Repeat Violence and Battery-(Assaulted Wife)
deFaria was sued Friday in Palm Beach County Circuit Court by Alliance Strategies Group, a Boca Raton political consulting firm. The suit claims deFaria didn’t pay for $23,000 of online fundraising services.-Sun-Sentinel
Mr. deFaria has now paid himself back $125,000 of the $406,000 he loaned his campaign, leaving his campaign with about $36,000 cash-on-hand. Is this a sign that deFaria is waiving the white flag?
deFaria’s blatant lies about Karen Harrington, his recent embarrassing attack on well respected veteran news anchor Michael Putney, questionable business practices, and his ongoing anger management issues have thrust his campaign into oblivion, and his defeat on August 14th in the Republican primary is a mere formality.

This question has nothing to do with politics, but it is an important one nonetheless: is she actually a slut? lol
This guy deFaria acts like a Liberal! Then again… He probably is. I would not waste my vote on this clown.
He behaves like a liberal? Gee, what a surprise: a right winger who finds it difficult to decipher reality. Therefore: just hurl a bit of laughably childish hate at liberals.
Who needs to relate to the real world, after all! Because you KNOW the truth!
Nothing more to be said. You’ve said it all !
Who would vote for this CRIMINAL? This guy is a damaged candidate. Debbie would destroy this guy in a General election. Plus,this guy is a disgrace to the Republican party!
Mr. DeFaria is making this thing uglier by the day. He wants to win, but is it for his ego or to ethically represent constituents?
There are times when I’m amazed at the audacity of some people who vie for public office. Their past records and behavior are not up to the high standards that ought to be!
One’s vote, you only get one, should be regarded as precious and not to be wasted on bad-actors. I’m asking myself about certain individuals running for office, “Do I want this person voting in my behalf, weighing my financial future or that of my children?”
I’m thinking “standards” here, folks…we should aim for higher standards. When we elect people to represent us, it’s not for a week-end, they get an entire term, whatever the law directs that term to be. It looks like we voters have to be more serious than some of our candidates. In any event, it’s got to straighten out, elected office shouldn’t be a refuge for undisciplined, unprincipled, people.
Sometimes, we need to forget the political parties to which we gravitated, times are a-changing! We need to elect good people, good, responsible and honorable people. It can be done if we refuse to be swayed by the petty character assassinations.
Seems that this punk Ozzie guy has an issue with treating women with respect? Then again, what do u except from a wife beater!
I am concerned about the “deFaria was sued Friday in Palm Beach County Circuit Court by Alliance Strategies Group, a Boca Raton political consulting firm. The suit claims deFaria didn’t pay for $23,000 of online fundraising services.” Not only should he be accountable, but I believe that deFaria’s “Finance Director” should be accountable. Afterall, Starla Munn-Brown touts herself as handling deFaria’s finances and she is paid for it. She is the individual who is employed by the deFaria campaign as Finance Director so she should be held responsible if this story is true.
I have said it before and I will say it again, this man scares me!
I have met him several times and every time he makes my skin crawl.
Amen Sister!
You are supposed to put Paid Political Advertisement after all of your Harrington Advertisements like this.
Its not very impressive that the Harrington campaign posts attacks on its opponents on their own facebook wall.
She’s had her chance last time and lost in a landslide. Personally I’m supporting Joe Kaufman who stands head and shoulders above both his opponents but the Harrington campaigns amateurish smears. A vote for Harrington is a vote for Debbie.
Javier (author) – Read your postings all the time – but i’m honestly going to tell you – that I’ve personally verified through connections at the Broward Property Appraiser’s office – Ozzie does own his home. Second – if you are serious about being a journalist you will read the facts & stop with the pathetic attempts to smear Ozzie. Your posts seem to be motivated specifically against the people that you are funded by. It’ bogus information that you are posting. You twist his words. The reason you are doing this – I can’t really figure out. But what I can tell you is that you have to put your head on the pillow at night & what goes around comes around. Someone up above is looking over all of our actions & your actions are going to end up with negative results. It is despicable – that you tossed dirt at the debate in South Beach regarding Ozzie down in South Beach – after you were accusatory regarding your well informed & simplification of a life event when someone was cheating on Ozzie; you didn’t even pay attention to his response. In fact I have a video of you playing on your phone & initiating an outbound phone call – specifically to reinforce your unjustified accusations. All I ask if you to present some of the positives along with the negatives. And you are very very clearly in this example of HOW YOU ARE SLANTING YOUR VIEWPOINTS BASED OFF OF YOUR FINANCIAL GAIN. It’s pathetic & I’d appreciate it unless you’d like my friends at CNN to get a phone call for me based off of some Bologna accusations regarding the candidates that you support – I’d back off! Thanks – No hard feelings. Just do the right thing please !
You are a joke. Everything that is posted on deFaria is accurate. No one cares that he was cheated on, he still did what he did. Have CNN call me, I have friends there, as well. So I challenge you to make good on your empty threat. You won’t because any real man does not have to threaten anyone. Explains a lot about your friendship with deFaria
You both seem petty joke-like to me.
If one were to go back and see who began the negative campaigning one would see it was Ozzie. I spoke to Karen and she said she had no choice, but to respond which she did.
LOL I really got to hand it to those Harvard Grads..Boola Boola
hahaha
Ozzie called Karen a disgusting clown, now a slut. I am not sure what rules prospective candidates have to adhere to or who governs them,
but this is enough.
Misogynistic, narcissistic fools that can buy their way to DC
have to be stopped no matter what side they are on. This needs to
go to the press. Pathetic. The way I feel about OD is real and experienced personally by me. You can not counter that with, must
be on Karen’s payroll. I am not. We need good people to go to congress. Dear God we are fighting for our country! No one paid for our trip to the big rally in DC on Sept 12, no one paid us to stand in the heat on the corners and protest this horrific takeover of American values and freedoms. We are pissed…you think we are not going to fight a guy like Defaira? Where was he last election when fighting Shultz was not so popular? Were were these 3 new candidates? When the disgust for DWS grew nationally then they show up. Who was out there sweating with us? Robert L,Allen West,Joe Kauffman,Bernard Sansaricq and Karen Harrington.
Does this Phil guy follow him around and hear what he says to people…can he prove that Ozzie does not say this crap?
No. Ozzie said in Miami..something like I am not a perfect man I have made mistakes but I am PROUD of everything I have done???? Oh and my son is here and unfortunately his parents were divorced. WOW his parents?? Trying to disassociate himself from the divorce. You don’t
have to twist his words..they are all ready twisted .
Donna Milo was a way better candidate than Ozzie,and after a few of his insults ..maybe Donna could sorta show Ozzie how to treat a lady!
[...] Zoom How on earth has Your Wonkette not previously been aware of Florida congressional candidate Osvaldo “Ozzie” deFaria (R-Arkham Asylum) before now? The [...]
I just love how somehow Debbie W-S is somehow comparable to this idiot.
The writer was of course correct to find deFaria insulting 0 but she does herself or her preferred party no favors with such childish, and laughably bizarre, false equivalence.
