Well, politically he's a big coward. The Florida governor was just on Meet the Press talking about his open embrace of the Obama administration's 789 billion dollar government expansion plan. When asked by David Gregory if he was an Obama Republican(One would guess the excitement going up the legs of Gregory and others at NBC from the fact that a Republican governor might be on board with Obama, you know, swept by his charm) Crist of course said he wasn't. He said he was a Florida Republican, whatever the hell that's suppose to mean. What really made me sick of the guy was when David Gregory asked him who the leader of the party was and wow, he said no one, President Obama is the leader because he's president. Well, there you have it folks another soft headed RINO on the rampage trying to play politics over principles and he will not go far in this party. I believe Crist sealed his fate when he openly announced that he would accept this money and went on to glorify Obama's economic plans. Crist claims that he just looking out for Floridians and yeah that's fine, we expect that. But when you follow along, without any resistance to this monster expansion of federal powers over the state and local governments, why you need to be brought out to pasture as the Great One Mark Levin often says.
Crist doesn't realize or he just doesn't care that he basically signed away the rights and power of his state to the Obama administration and the federal government. That's what this slimeulus plan does Charlie old buddy. This plan is like selling your soul to the devil himself, or at least signing a bad record deal and giving your rights to a shady and greedy record executive. But does Charlie care? No he doesn't. if he was so concerned about the people of Florida then as Governor, or CEO of the state as he put it, why not I don't know act like a Governor and pull your state out of its financial circumstances. And don't tell me "Oh, this is beyond what state and local governments can do." No it's not. If that were the case then we should abolish governorships and the office of mayor because apparently now they have no power. They no longer run their states or cities; the government does. Happy now?
