Fact-checking Gov. Rick Scott’s exchange with Starbucks heckler
Miami Herald ^ | 4/6/16 | AMY SHERMAN AND JOSHUA GILLI

Scott stopped in at the coffee chain for a cup Tuesday after touring the recently opened factory and headquarters for biopharmaceutical company Nanotherapeutics. Cara Jennings, a former Lake Worth city commissioner, saw Scott in the downtown store and ripped into him, from her seat, over health insurance and cuts to women’s health services, and calling him an expletive

It PAINS the Miami Herald to report the TRUTH, so they call the LIES by the heckler "Half True", which of course means FALSE.

Rick Scott's claim, even by the Herald's own admission is MOSTLY TRUE.

Profanity & shouting only highlight the weakness of one’s argument.

she complains about not having a good job and no one there has and yet she drinks coffee in Starbucks!

If she had no money then she should not have a coffee like I do, however if she really needed one and no one does then she should go to a gas station like Kangaroo which is decent coffee and much cheaper or even Dunkin donuts than the over priced crap they serve at the liberal establishment of Starbucks.

Plain Starbucks tastes like burned s***. It’s intended to, making customers buy all those xtra foo-foo toppings to hide the burned s*** taste.

And your Starbucks burned s*** comes with a side order of liberal barista attitude written on your cup.

Phooey!

Does this woman still have her teeth? If she still has her teeth why? Is she black like a giant plum and being carried on a wooden rail? If she is not black like a giant plum and not being carried on a wooden rail, why? While I hate politicians I hate the screaming harridan more; especially those screaming about their lost “Freebies.”

Number one, he shouldn't patronize Starbucks. Number two, would it be too much to ask that the jackholes who swilled out this "article" just tell us that the loudmouthed beeotch was a Demwit? Number three, when she started up, he should have gone over and busted her in the head, maybe with one of the chairs, and keep it up until she stopped moving. Of course, I mean that in the nicest possible way.
