Dead Whale Washes Up In Tampa Bay, Usual Suspects Rounded Up

"The bloated corpse floated belly up in the bay, adrift, bobbing with the tide. It was obvious she had been dead for some time.

The curious watched from the shore, while the authorities went about their duties in workmanlike fashion......here

because they love to stick their faces in the public trough and
lick, lick, lick up taxpayers’ money for themselves and their rich cronies........Roblimo
