Florida Rep. Thomas Rooney is the latest Republican who will not seek re-election in 2018, according to Politico’s Jake Sherman. In a statement tweeted by Sherman, Rooney said, “After what will be 10 years in the United States Congress representing the good people of Florida’s Heartland, it’s time to “hang em up” as my old football coach used to say.”

Good! This is the idiot who said we need to be willing to give up some of our freedom.
A lot of Never Trumpers heading for the exits.
The cockroaches are running from the light of TRUTH....a portion of the swamp is self-draining.
See ya!
Bye Rooney. We never knew you
Reality is these a-hole Republicans want to lose their power and go back to being subservient and not have to be accountable for anything.
Look at the bright side. The left will think we’re scared. Stupid yes but scared?
He’s my Rep. Talked a good game ten years ago, then went down hill. His wealth sure went up for his ten years of service. He lost the heartland two terms ago, pandering got him his last term. Have hope my rural friends, when we turn that field, it shows up a few years later. I tell folks, we be the handle of the basket, which we all know, a basket has no use without a handle!
Bet some crap comes out on this guy. A lot of them are dropping cause they are giving them an out. NOTICE how the Dems aren’t leaving!!!!!!!
In the Parkland case, their security system should be brought to public scrutiny . Particularly of the policies employed. For starters this school has a so called “gun free zone”. It does have a parking lot officer who may be armed assigned to patrol the multi acre site in a golf cart , but bans guns from the rest of its internal security .
Because of these Ding Bat liberal policies it brings up another question. Just how safe and secure are those kids ? There’s a lot of krap that happens; Assaults, fights, thefts, books and items stolen, drugs, teachers accosted, kids intimidated....
Examine records reporting how student vs student, and student vs teacher altercations, vandalism, and thefts, which are bound to occur were being dealt with.
In an educational unit this size it’s pretty clear their security system failed . In a secure system Cruz would have never gotten inside.
Young boys in the closet?
Good analysis, Thank you. I DO notice that it is the RINO GROPElites who are quitting.
Which is what the Republicans want, too. The Party is telling these guys to scram. No one voluntarily leaves the trough-feeding gig called "public service."
