Buying the FL vote. Bush orders Feds to pick up 90% of cain tab instead
of the usual 70%. Question is, will he do this for the rest of the states that were hit hard by the cains? It must be nice to be able to pay for benes to your political friends by passing the charges on to someone else's children and grandchildren. And there are no politicians who have enough nerve to call him on this.

1. If it wasn't close to voting time FL wouldn't be getting it either

2. I don't want to put a damper on this one but...
I'm sure this favoritism will go to the state that shall not be mentioned if Kerry wins.

3. I cannot believe that W* can continue to be so brazen in his
shameless attempt to hold on to power.

4. I watched
I watched our county commission meeting on tv last night in Pensacola (IVAN) and they brought that up. One of the commissioners said that happened because we had such a good president. This part of Florida is shameful.

BTW, this commission had to have 3 of the 5 commissioners replaced by the Governor because of illegal acts. Violation of Freedom of Information act, bribes, payoffs, etc.

We are one of the poorest counties in the nation and we need the money but they can not buy my vote.

5. Good for you. The best help for FL would be booming econome and
no war bills to pay by their children.
