Rick Scott is about to sue Washington to prevent

[malaise]

the expansion of Medicare and Medicaid.

Fuck that scumbag whose family shold all be in prison for fraud.

[Dont call me Shirley]

1. And himself should be in prison, penniless and working to pay his debt back to Medicare at .27

an hour.

[Rex]

2. Crime pays...crime pays a LOT if you are a master criminal.

Fucking scumbag X100!

[polichick]

15. Sure does - Republicans admire guys like this.

[edhopper]

3. Is this a surprise?

It is what the people of Florida voted for.
Screwing the poor and helping the rich.
They had every chance to make it different.

[lpbk2713]

4. Scott doesn't speak for me. Never has, never will.

I am ashamed to have this thief and liar for a governor.

[valerief]

5. I want to see Floridaman duke it out with Scott. My money'd be on

Floridaman.

16. Bernie Sanders Lays The Smack-Down : GOP Freedom Is ‘The Freedom To Die’ (Video)

“So their definition of freedom is is that if you are 70 years of age and you are poor and you have no health insurance, you’re going to have the freedom literally to die,” he concluded.

25. Thanks Cali_Democrat

[napkinz]

22. and right above Florida, there's Georgia and Governor Nathan Deal ...

[mcar]

27. Well said malaise

And we Florida Democrats are stuck with him.

I've lived here 25 years and have seen Jeb and now Scott destroy this beautiful state. Crist was in between in every sense of the word.

Florida May never recover.

[Scuba]

28. Carl Hiaasen couldn't dream up a character as nasty and crooked as Rick Scott.

[SickOfTheOnePct]

29. The article I read said

was that Scott is suing to prevent CMS from cutting off federal dollars to the Low Income Pool for treating Medicaid patients.

[onethatcares]

31. probably because he has

a blind trust that has mega shares or a business interest in grabbing some of that LIP funds IMO.

He's lower than a snake in the everglades.

[SickOfTheOnePct]

35. He's a scumbag, no doubt

But suing to stop the feds from cutting off money for Medicaid is far different than suing to stop the expansion of Medicaid.

[spanone]

30. they don't give one shit about the voters. period. and the voters choose to be blind to it.

dont. git. it.

[Raine1967]

34. Bless his felonious heart. nt
