Florida Governor Rick Scott Embodies Republican Hypocrisy
by Glenn R. Geist
Hot and cold running history, or is it more like a bar with a hundred beers on tap? Any story and any flavor for any need.
So Florida’s most crooked governor ever, Rick Scott, or Ol’ Snake Eyes as I like to call him in polite company, is actually telling us unruly Americans to rally around the Trump because after all, Republicans rallied around Obama.
Listen to the jaws drop. Listen to the great hollow sound of an empty universe devoid of value or virtue or hope. But of course one can take it in another way. We can rally with guns and threatening signs.
We can burn him in effigy, spread fake stories and doctored photos and obscene
slogans. We can refuse to cooperate in anything and everything. We can print bumper stickers filled with hate. We can bind them on our foreheads and on our doorposts and on our cars and T-shirts and festoon them from the trees. WE CAN IMPEACH HIM! Rally around the president! Rally around the bonfire. You bring the tar, I’ll bring the feathers.

You flatter him. He’s also stolen more money than almost anyone and was allowed to walk “Scott” free. Republicans don’t care. They talk about values but they don’t care.
Scott is a loathesome, Gollum like creature.
