...the political-philosophy gulf between the wealthy Republican governor and the black Democrats who represent some of the poorest people in Florida was starkly obvious.

Okay, I admit that I stopped reading right there. No political bias in this so-called report, huh?

Serious question: Do blacks really get short shrift in these issues or are the Dems saying they want more than everybody else’s share of opportunity?

Everyone knows that blacks are incapable of becoming educated, forming and maintaining intact, functional families, instilling a work ethic or stopping violent behavior. They won't ever choose to correct the deficiencies that have kept them subservient, so why even discuss it? (Is the < /sarc > tag really necessary, or would a < /unspoken RAT attitude > be more appropriate?)

They want felons to immediately have their voting rights because they assume same will vote Democrat. If felons were assumed to be potential Republican voters, the black caucus would not give a flying flip about the issue.

I went to a retirement party on “the boulevard”, mostly authentic Mexican restaurants, good food. It was completely ugly weather, cold and dreary and a (I assume) Mexican husband and wife were working their hardest painting the outside of their restaurant. They were there when I went in to the party and they were still there when I left.

They showed themselves to be driven, hard workers. Not saying this extends to anyone other than this couple, but this couple was working hard.

“Your record of appointments to the judiciary is appalling to us,” said Rep. Darryl Rouson, D-St. Petersburg. “There’s a sentiment in the black legal community that we need not bother to apply because we don’t think like you.”

Hey Darryl—do you see BathHouse Barry nominating judges that “don’t think like” him? Have you protested that yet?

“Rouson, a lawyer, said that of 91 judicial appointments by Scott, only six went to blacks. He asked for a commitment to diversity in appointments to regulatory boards and commissions throughout state government.”

Hey, Darryl—how come “black leaders” are always agitating for “diversity” but never for “compentence”?

I admire Gov. Scott for sticking to his guns. Someone like Boehner would fold in a heartbeat.

“Denied medical rights...?” What are those? Where is a list of our medical rights?
