Rick Scott's Executions
Scott has presided over 18 executions,
including 13 in the last two years,
the most executions carried out by any Florida governor
in a single term since the death penalty was reinstated in the
1970s.
With another execution scheduled in 10 days,
Scott has already exceeded the 15 executions carried out in Gov. Bob Graham's
second term. Only Jeb Bush, who oversaw 21 executions in two terms over eight
years, remains ahead of Scott. here

Christian’ Conservatives Gleefully Celebrate
In a 5-4 partisan ruling the Supreme Court handed businesses the right to enforce their religious beliefs on their employees, so naturally the conservatives would be very happy about it. They get to punish women for having sex and appease their corporate masters. It’s a win all around! here

More GOP BS
It appears that President Obama, with 182 EO’s, still has to sign off on another 100 Executive Orders before he even comes close to tying with
George W. Bush – whose record stands at 291.
And Bush Jr. pales in comparison to Ronald Reagan who must have been the great usurper of the Constitution with his Executive Order count standing at 381! here

Leadership lacking on transit in Hillsborough
The comments last week by the chairman of Hillsborough County's mass transit agency illustrate why this region continues to lag behind other major metro areas in mass transit.
Mike Suarez, the chairman of Hillsborough Area Regional Transit, scoffed at the notion that the county would be ready to present a transit package to the voters in 2016. "The boat has sailed on that,"
he said. Best to wait until 2018.
That's a stall that has played out for decades, and it reflects a lack of vision and leadership that continues to hurt Hillsborough
and the Tampa Bay region. here
