So shines a good deed in a weary world.

You beat me to it, but forgot to add that Scott is cutting 300 state jobs at the DCA.

Oh f'cryin'outloud !!!

It's just plain stupid.

Stop this 'the cost vs. (whatever)'

It's a freakin' dumb idea.

That sound you hear is Willie Green’s bong hitting the wall.

[Joann37]

Good for him!

The 0bama administration seems to have a proclivity for overstating results and understating costs. I’m glad Scott was able to see what was going on here before Floridians were stuck with the bill.

0’s “high speed rail” sounds like another Big Dig!

[Kevin in California]

In other words, he gave “O” the middle finger. :-)

Great Scott!!

following the lead of that other Great Scott....Walker of Wisconsin!

[Amagi]

Great news. Bravo for Governor Scott for refusing to waste the tax payers’ money.

Now, to top all of that off ~ this would serve only to impress the "Sno Birds" who live there part of the year ~ but otherwise are all Canadian citizens.

Did you know that there are so many of them in the Orlando area that the post office almost grinds to a halt in the Summer when they return to their gold mines and oil wells in the Great White North?

Wow, seems like every week he comes out with something that impresses me.

Very very glad I did not fall for the rhetoric, and voted for Scott in the primary. He’s living up to his words.

[Leisler]

Willie still wants massive infrastructure ‘investment’ in city to city bike paths. As in like China. Or India. Very fuel efficient. And Michael Obama approved healthy too!

[Iron Munro]

Excellent move!

There are at least a few governors who get the message and understand the seriousness of our financial condition.

Now congress needs to pass a law that any rail system built in any state as part of this Obama financial boondoggle will not have financial subsidies from taxpayers of other states to cover maintenance and operational costs. Let the riders pay the full cost of their own transportation.
