"TALLAHASSEE — In a wide-ranging deposition that spanned two days in late May, former Florida Republican Party chairman Jim Greer denounced some party officials as liars and "whack-a-do, right-wing crazies'' as he described turmoil in the months before his resignation.
Greer said some GOP leaders were meeting to discuss ways they could suppress black votes while others were constantly scheming against each other."
Are they eating their own, or truth telling?
In the cesspool of Florida politics, it's likely the truth, as it follows (R)epelican't voter surpression in other States.
You decide.
More Florida fear and loathing.
Isn't it amazing what teabagge(R) conse(R)vatives will waste tax payer money on?

The Florida purge continues despite court orders.

With a Governor like Scott, did you expect anything else?
Is there something in the water down there?
It just keeps getting crazier, and crazier.

Forget the RNC, the Statehouse would be a better place to be, considering what a nut case Scott is.
This one even comes with a video.

The sad part?
It's nothing new. It's the (R)epelican't plan.

It was also in heavy use in 2000
Good video.
The truth comes out for those interested enough in it. For the GOTP they can't run fast enough from it!
Come Together NOW
I'm all choked up....I....I....I don't know what to say....that poor...poor...public screwing asshole . . .just got....h ..h..Horribly screwed... is there no justice???...sniff...sniffle....honk....poor fucking asshole...family on f f food ssstamps.....wonder if the poor in the state will offer to lend him support....the poor poor bag of shit.......
Well it does seem that the GOP's golden parachute has a few holes in it............LOL
Along with their party platform.
Their party platform ( the corpoRATist platform ) seems to be suicide. Problem is they want everyone to join in.
The problem is, it's not one just State they are pulling this shit in.

Did you notice the lack of comment from all of our "friends" in Florida?
They've avoided it like the plague.
It is part of the corpoRATist agenda - Disenfranchise - PEOPLE.
How better to help steal an election ( among other things ) then to deny voting to a large segment of the population THAT NO WAY IN HELL would support their policies.
This is a National effort of theirs. Just like labor busting ( union busting ).
The shills will stay quiet on this subject as long as they figure they can as they do not want to validate it by attacking the truth for all to see and thereby cause publicity. Publicity which would be bad for them & good for the people.

" I am not a crook", comes to mind as the departure date.
When they completely quit caring about Americans took a bit longer, but here we are..

They were taken over by libe(R)tarians, pushing neoliberal economic policies under the guise of both parties............and now?
Here we are, many in denial of that defining fact.
Many more, completely ignorant of it.
That it's the libe(R)tarian co-option, that makes some of them appear the same. Along with the selfish libe(R)tarian greed that goes with it.

There was no famine, they were just starved by the king.
Just like the kings of industry like to do to us.
[Removed]
Well put, shooz. Although there was massive crop failure, starvation by the king is a dead-on assessment.
What's ironic, from my point of view, is if it wasn't for the Famine, I wouldn't be here. Not that the world would be worse off, mind you.
It was a failure of a single crop.
The rest of what was grown was "requisitioned" by the King through the landlords.
The royal courts ate quite well throughout the "famine".
I'll bet they did.
It was more than one crop, though. It went on for a number of years.
Nopers.
It was a potato blight, that hit only that crop.

Even your link says "1845-49, when the potato crop failed in successive years."
I know about the successive years, but it did hit only potatoes, not other crops, although to a degree other tubers "might" have been affected..
Oh, my bad. I thought you meant one year when you said one crop. I was trying to figure out how you missed that it was successive years. That's so unlike you. Ah, semantics, gotta love it.
Whew........I thought you were siding with the King for a minute there........:)
Did I mention I'm of Irish descent? Those are fightin' words shooz!
Oh, wait. My mom is of British descent.
Fuck man, now you got me all confused! ;-)

I agree. There is no excuse to back any of the self interested bastards in either party.
It continues unabated.
Now you can just threaten to use the damn libruls as "target practice".

Florida is such a cesspool these days.
Where's all our friends from Florida?

this post has so much stupid packed into a small package.........
S'mater?
Don't like the competition?
You are right I could never be as stupid as you, but I will try and come as close as I can
to stupid to insult
(R)epelican'ts like these should always be insulted.
So help yourself...................:)
Florida has become a cesspool filled with them
Life is hard; it's even harder when your stupid…life seems pretty hard for you.
You like Scott, eh?
That's telling, coming from a low info poster.
I doubt you hear anything outside of your close minded viewpoint…but hey I see stupid has served you well.
Whatever.
Lol
Thanks for the bump.....................:)
No prob have to keep the thread alive somehow
Yes, living threads. Full of DNA.
That's just nasty
YES! Only the Democratic Party can save us!
Maybe, maybe not, but the (R)epelican'ts damn sure ain't gonna do it.
They need to go. Teabagge(R)s first.
Ever since that guy said "I am not a crook" they've been becoming bigger ones every single year.
