Screw you black racists... your skin makes you no better than me and you deserve no more consideration that any other person... it should be based on ability and content of character... and it will be one day.

"Race card alert."

Easily provable. All Scott would have to do to prove it is to appoint CONSERVATIVE black judges to his administration.

Their complaints are ALL about promoting left-wing DemocRAT ideology. It has nothing to do with "skin color".

In the typical DemocRAT fashion HERE and HERE and of attempting to "rig" the next election, Obama Aims at Election Laws

Maybe there are no blacks qualified for the judicial posts. Sooner or later you run out of a small slice of a minority if you are required to post positions.

If anyone tried to form a “white caucus” in the Fla legislature the MSM would lead a charge against them like you’ve never seen.

Scott deserves kudos for bailing on the high speed rail last year, and now we get the report that the one in California is gonna be 2-3 times the original estimate...
