Botroots support? I like it! Half a billion identical letters to the editor would surely make quite an impression.

Well said! Remember how Geogre Bush (43) was the "first MBA President?"

And what was supposed to be a good thing?

See the evolution of Teabagger thinking: Sarah Palin could not name a newspaper and she looked like a doofus. Scott refuses to read newspapers--in your face MSM motherfuckers!

Excellent. Because nothing says grass roots support more than identically worded letters to the editor.

<i>"...signed it Jesus, Hitler, Rick Scott..."</i>

As if any of those guys would want to be associated with Rick Scott.

Hmmm. It appears you can edit Scott's meassage before you send it. I think I just told some editor that Scott is a douche bag. Silly me.

in related news, voldemort, issued a statement to 'the daily prophet' today noting:

<i>While muggles usually disappoint us and rarely keep their promises, Tom Riddle is refreshing because he’s keeping his word. His Dementors are helping to attract businesses to our state and get people back to work. Tom Riddle deserves our unwavering and enthusiastic support. How can we expect to elect leaders who will keep their word and do what’s right for our state if we don’t stand up for those with the courage to set priorities, make difficult choices, and actually send people to Azkaban?</i>

sincerely,

he who must not be named.

The same people who worship at the altar of private sector for everything don't hesitate to talk up that government run military, government run police, fire departments, government run jails. If we viewed our health security the same way we viewed our national security, doctors would all report to the Surgeon General and we'd be fighting disease instead of LIbyans.
