Actually, Florida overwhelmingly elected both Jeb! and President Bush in the last election cycles. Florida is becoming more and more conservative. Every branch of our legislature is overwhelmingly conservative. We've got whacko judges but what state doesn't? We're trying to make up for all of walkin Lawton's liberal appointees as well as other democrat Governors of the past. Jeb can't make up for it in less than 2 full terms. Most of us here are good people who are as outraged as you are. Don't condemn the whole state for something we don't condone.

Well said, volchef...I'm getting a little uneasy with the Florida bashing going on here. We at least speak up and protest about the injustices we see instead of keeping quiet about it, like many other states. We're a large state with a big population. There's a huge cultural war going on here and we fight back instead of just rolling over. Maybe that's why the activism going on at the Hospice has demanded so much national attention. Would that be the case in a blue state? I doubt it!
