Alcee Hastings-Florida's Pride

Well, darn! Rep. Alcee Hastings wasn't chosen by Nancy Pelosi for a very important position. I'm thinking racism is involved. Hell, Al was no more crooked than John Murtha. And being impeached is a badge of honor for Democrats. Hell, a resume enhancer.

But that's not important right now.

I just want to puff out my chest and say that we here in Florida take pride in our crooks and rascals...and elect them to office. Well, if they're Democrats of course. Republicans are outcasts whose names are never mentioned again.

Florida...the rules really are different here, as The Florida Masochist so often points out.
