Oh..Boy...Talk about a Person you voted for, biting you in the ass.
One of my Tech buddies was telling me this morning about one of his customers.
The customer, (who is a Construction Supervisor) told him>>
"I voted for Rick Scott and now he wants to give the Money for Light Rail back to the Government"
"Our Company was all set to start pouring concrete and now our hiring of new help is out the window"

Do I feel sorry for this Guy?...yeah..r-i-g-h-t...

2. same exact same thing happened to my BIL
My BIL, for as long as I have know him, has been a staunch D. He is an engineer in Jacksonville and voted for Scott thinking it would open more job opportunities for him as he nears the end of his current project.

Now - a major opportunity has just be removed thanks to that cretin scott.

I will see him next week - can't wait to ask him how the vote worked out for him.

11. it's not kicking someone when they are down to show them WHY
they ended up in the situation they are in. Because you can bet there are some republican mouth pieces out there who will tell him the reason why that happened is because of the democrats.

17. oh good Lord - the D's lost that election by a few votes
and it was R's lies that took moved some solid D votes to put a cretin like scott in office.

3. While running for office republicans will tell everyone
what they want to hear, tell them how they will make life better, how they will let everyone see the pretty rainbow
and then once in office they will attack and destroy the very foundations that hold society up.........

4. Gov. Wanker, (conservanazi) WI, did the same thing only
the light rail company opened a plant in Milwaukee. One of his first official acts was to shut down the light rail projects with closed the plant which laid off the people it had hired.

conservanazis are predictable. they do the same stupid things. Gov. Wanker was going to create a gazillion jobs. Wanker is now the poster boy for the conservanazi governors. The only thing they create is tax breaks for the rich.

Scott may dig his own grave in Florida. Of course, like Texas, Floridians are keen on believing the conservanazi's bu$hit, no matter how unbelievable it is.

15. Yes but Cuomo and New Yorkers are applauding Scott's choice...
since they may be able to get extra money for rail projects in New York State which means more jobs for them.

It's not like those 20k jobs are disappearing, just other governors & states are going to benefit from it instead.

24. The hot burner has no sympathy for the fingers


These people who voted for the wrong person are like those who put their hands on a red-hot burner.

It hurts. And it should hurt, so that one remembers never to do that again.

And they should be reminded of that hurt, over and over, so that they do not repeat that mistake again.

If you learn nothing from your mistakes, you'll continue to make the same ones.

Life sucks when you make poor choices...

14. Scott is a proven thief and a con man on a grand scale.




There should be no expectations other than fraud and deceit.
I don't know why anyone would have expected any different. :shrug:

19. people who vote for repukes are classic examples of people who don't read the fine print...

25. Yep


If voters don't feel the pain of bad choices, they keep making bad choices.
