He must have written another one of those family movies and is trying to sell the book..I for one have never read any of his books and have watched about two of his movies..When I saw him for the first time in a picture I felt sorry for him because of how he looked..He spends to much time in the evil dark world writing those idiot books to pay attention to him..

"King criticized Scott's rejection of federal dollars for a high-speed rail between Tampa and Orlando."

He lives just below Tampa, so this appears personal like he wants the high-speed choo choo so he can get to Disneyworld faster.

Except for his horror stories, I don't know of much King is famous for except walking down the road and getting run over.

hey axxhole StephenKing, drop all your deductions and tax shelters and pay a straight rate

King is a total hypocrit - Florida is a NO INCOME TAX STATE so King is living in FL to avoid paying state income tax, and wanting other people to pay more tax. If he's so hot to pay taxes let him move to Kalifornistan or NY

*The wealthy very often enjoy greatly to spend other people’s money.*

Yep. The famous ones like to keep anyone else from ever getting any money, Soros, Michael Moore, Al gore....

” Capitalism is an evil, and you cannot regulate evil. You have to eliminate it and replace it with something that is good for all people and that something is democracy.”
~ Michael Moore
“Capitalism is the evil that has made Michael Moore so much money and made him able to travel where he wants and have multiple houses”

Out of morbid curiosity I read a little of one of his books.
I can’t find the quote, but the jist of it was, “You can NEVER hope to make a lot of money. It’s virtually impossible. You’re odds are, like, a billion to one. Give up now. It can never happen.” And yet a guy like him with an IQ of about 80 has made enough to make any sultan envy him.

Plus he takes one of his Bangor stations that was all sports, with local and national programs, and replaces it with all lib-talk. He still has the rights to the Red Sox broadcast up here on that channel. It’s quite disturbing to get in the car the morning after a Sox game and have to listen to even one minute of Bill Press.

“Horror novel writer Stephen King is no fan of Florida Gov. Rick Scott.”

Stuff it, you fruitcake. I’m not a fan of yours, either.

If Stephen King likes HSR, let him pay for it out of his book profits. Let him put his money where his mouth is or just shaddup!

Stephen King needs to take a flying **bleep** at a rolling doughnut.

Didn't know Press was still alive...haven't been in that area in years; wasn't aware of that unfortunate format change.

LOL...that's great!

Unintended consequences are always a liberal's stock-in-trade.

Hey Stevie, I have two words for you, and they are not Happy Birthday. Guess I won’t be buying any of your books, like I won’t be going to see quite a few movies with left wing idiots in them. Money talks, Stevie.

Dean Koontz writes better books and he is a conservative.
