NO you get a grip. He is allowing these pork items in the budget. The only item I agree should be vetoed ie. spared from being cut, is the tiny item for our Vet heroes.

Items that Crist vetoed, meaning they will stay in the budget, include:

$29 million for teachers, autism education and Florida School for the Deaf and Blind
$23 million for food stamps, disability agencies, mental health and substance abuse treatment
$16 million to keep 118 probation officers working, as well as substance abuse and guardian ad litem programs
The Florida Forever land conservation program will be fully funded instead of being suspended
$22 million for tourism and Visit Florida marketing

What incentive is there for any Republican to be 96% perfect if you rant as if he's Satan, himself.

If I were Crist I'd say, "Okay, to hell with ya, I'll approve the whole damn $2.5 billion - NO CUTS - go take a bite on that!"
