"Republicans Voting Against Stimulus Then Asked Obama for Money" Sorry if you're having comprehension problems. This topic is about one train in Florida, you are the one who is trying to make it about something else you want to argue about. You are the one who apparently doesn't match the news. The Republicans have blocked just about every stim package they could find, then had their hands out for the money. Feel free to live in a reality-free zone. Having absolutely nothing to do with this conversation. We are talking about one particular boondoggle not some generalized hatred for the GOP that you harbor and want to argue about. Even if I did want to comment on your links I would point out this is not a case of a GOP legislator fighting "stim" legislation and then taking the money. Scott does not want the money so your links are off topic or you do not understand what you are posting. I have no hatred for the GOP, but you seem to have some for anything liberal. No I just don't like stupid ideas. Yet every and any liberal originated idea is terrible. If not, please point to a few that are ok with you. As I said, all (or nearly all) Republicans voted against the stim, and most of them then put their hand out to want some of it after it passed. Having absolutely nothing to do with this subject. Scott did not want nor did he take the money. Having absolutely everything to do with the subject, whether or not you like it. Scott is a, apparently, a criminal. Feel free to defend him. Only apparent if you do not believe in the criminal justice system. One of those sleazy lawyers got him off without having to admit any guilt. Again this has nothing to do with what we are talking about. They got OJ off too. He wasn't found innocent. He was found not guilty. That's a big difference. You seem to just want to pick a fight about something and if it is not on topic, you change the subject. Nonsense. BTW I did not vote for Scott but I do agree with ditching this stupid train. It is an 18th century solution to a 21st century problem. Don't know or care about Fl politics, except when it comes to national elections. |

So, what you are saying is that every Democrat who voted to raise a tax that didn't get raised, should write an extra check for that extra amount every year anyway? Because that would be the same as a Senator voting against a stim package but taking the money the law said he must take after the bill was passed. Your insinuation is disingenuous... Like just about every other post here from you... |

I can settle for him just having a criminal background.  |

His election is all the proof needed of the utter stupidity of florida voters. I am sure you voted for LBJ and Scott is a piker compared to that crook. Unfortunately when Jeb left, nobody who was really qualified was willing to step up here. Sink was a bank lobbyist and I am not sure that was the right choice either. You're sure I voted for LBJ, eh? In 1964, when Johnson ran for his own term, I was too young to vote in the U.S. presidential election. Had I been able to vote, I would have voted for Johnson. His opponent then was Barry Goldwater. Back then, I would have considered Goldwater too extreme to be president. I got to know Goldwater pretty well in the late 1970's and 1960's when I was a consultant to several of the national postal employee unions and prepared testimony for presentation before a Senate committee on which he served. He truly was a great man. Nowadays, of course, he wouldn't have anything to do with the race-hating, gay-bashing, white separatists who run the GOP. |
