Wanna see an example of the worst kind of irony? Just check out Gov. Scott schedule for today…
Wanna see the worst frekin’ example of irony I’ve seen in politics in a long time? Just check out Governor Rick Scott’s schedule for later today:
SPECIAL OLYMPICS TORCH RUN: Gov. Rick Scott, First Lady Ann Scott, Attorney General Pam Bondi and Chief Financial Officer Jeff Atwater will attend the Special Olympics Torch Run Ceremony. Scott will participate in the run and pass the torch to a designated Special Olympics athlete. (10 a.m., Starting at Publix, 1700 N. Monroe St., Tallahassee, ending at the Capitol.)
Yeah, that’s right…the Governor will be attending a Special Olympics event on the SAME DAY it’s revealed he is planning to invoke his emergency powers and make deep cuts to the rates charged by group homes and case workers who help the developmentally disabled.
I don’t even want to think about how many of the wonderful athletes participating in Special Olympics rely or have relied on the programs Gov. Scott is planning to decimate with his actions.
Maybe the booing of Rick Scott should not start tomorrow night at Tropicana Field, but today in Tallahassee. Actually, booing is quickly becoming not sufficient enough a reaction to what is going on in the Capital.
[...] cut the legs out from under people with disabilities (besides downing a raw fish whole)? He’s headed off to the Special Olympics torch run. How’s that for cruel [...]
Wow, how typical! Rich greedy bastard! I wonder if he fired his assistant for missing this scheduling/ PR disaster. Hope he at least made a hefty personal donation!
