$79 million is a rounding error to Rick Scott. When it gets to a billion, then we can talk.

He didn't lie, it just wasn't intended to be a factual statement.

So many words come to mind, unfortunately, all of them are quite profane.

Any chance Scott gets though his first term without being indicted for something.
Let's see he has been found guilty of Stealing from the elderly and fined heavily.
He claims he perjured himself when he took the fifth 65 times not because he was incriminating himself but breaking the law to keep from embarrassing his wife.
Looks like he has skirted his attempt to make millions for himself in the drug testing scam. He was caught by the media and has ejected before it got to the point of prosecution.
Has now lied to the court again and claims it was a 100 million dollar boo boo. Funny how we knew the amount on this site be the Governor supposedly had no access to that information.

*He has also chosen a lieutenant Governor who lied about we she ran her business operations to defraud our cities bidding process.

Any biggies I missed, misrepresented or are unsubstantiated?

It was actually a reference to Jon Kyl, although I'm sure Colbert picked up on it.

Thank you Jon Kyl's spokesman...and yes, Colbert grabbed it for a few days!

[Takes strong swig of tea...er...Kool-Aid] Come on, everybody! Leave Rick Scott alone! I am sure that you are overreacting over a small factual error. Which of you MJers have not made a $100 million dollar error? Thought so. [Vomits tea...er...Kool-Aid into wastebasket].

Well you know how it is............somone has to take the fall, and it sure as heck isn't going to be Rick Scott himself

So much for that personal rsponsibility thing that we expect from those teenage mothers.

It just doesn't apply higher up.
