The so-called reporters on the Orlando Sentinel staff see “unemployment” in their future—and justifiably so.

I would too; that’s my hometown paper. I won’t subscribe until there’s something worthy in it to read. And I’d LOVE LOVE LOVE to see that imbecile scott Maxwell ousted.

If the Sentinel gains the Koch brothers and lose Maxwell, I call that a win win

You have to be really butt-stupid liberal to be afraid of the Koch Bros . Koch Bros are pro-gay, pro-amnesty....and have many of the same beliefs as George Soros

The Orlando Sentinel is vile Black KKK Racist with their coverage against George Zimmerman
