you have to be kidding right?

have the constitutional ability to impeach John Kashit.

He just put 2 individuals w/ absolutely no medical experience on the Ohio Medical Board....they're just Anti-Abortion and that's all Widdle Johnny cares about.

Plus, today House committee voted 11-9 along party lines to DEFUND PLANNED PARENTHOOD. IMHO, if a woman who used PP for her health needs, and she dies of breast, cervical, or ovarian cancer, the Republicans are guilty of pre-meditated murder.

100,000 women use PP in Ohio.

And Kashit wonders why young adults get their education here and then leave??? Who wants to live in the f*cking Dark Ages? Pretty soon he won't have to worry about creating jobs, everyone will have left. Hell, one could move to Colorado, lay back and mellow out.

He's another white dude who just can't face the music. Women are not going to go backward. This is just like the shit he pulled on SB5. Another march to his house might be a good idea. But this time instead of taking away income, he wants to kill women and deny them freedom.

Just signed it and saw the list. Not signing it can't help and signing it won't hurt.

Sic him, Florida!!!!!!!

is probably why the Democrats should keep their ground game ready. Anytime people want a second thought on these republicans maybe the electorate can recall them. If Pat McCrory start acting dumb, maybe this gives the people of North Carolina an idea to recall his butt. I'm just waiting for this guy to start acting stupid. And especially elected representatives that start talking about secession. I think that is enough reason to recall the clowns.

Impeachment is a far different matter.

and then when that passes go for recalling Scott? Although it's a 2 step process it should be doable.

But more to the point, it wouldn't make it to the ballot until 2014 and by then we can just vote him out. Frankly, I think the recall failed in Wisconsin because it got up the backs of Wisc. republicans who turned out to support their guy. What we need here is to just go about getting out the vote in 2014, always more difficult in an off-year, but if we build on the message of voter suppression, we could get rid of him.

But use him as the awful example to get the recall initiative into your constitution so it's there for the next person. Recalls work all the time. Wis was FIRST time a governor up for recall wasn't recalled. It's best to have that in your arsenal because, unfortunately, your state will probably need it again.

So get on with impeachment now. You've got the evidence.

We're with ya.

Q ball governor should be publicly horse whipped and incarcerated for life.

He should be in jail. He's a criminal to begin with. That background seems to have escaped his coming into office in the first place.

Hello... America, meet Mr. Fraud of Medicare. Oh, as a reward, he continued in his mold suppress civil rights.

Throw him in jail, FL!

what does this mean: " he continued in his mold suppress civil rights."

He "voter suppress" the hell out of the last election. This is true to his form.... his "mold".

They ought to throw him in jail, and then throw away the mold!

that the rabid RW will support this as he said he will no longer try to block health care reform in Florida.

I would love to see this criminal impeached and jailed.

What % of legislative votes is necessary for impeachment? What % of the legislature is REpuke?


What is Eric Holder doing about illegal election activities in Fla and other states?

And: (Crickets)

Carry on.

I researched it when Jeb was Governor.

And with the size of the repuke majorities in both houses, and the intelligence level of the jerks in the statehouse, a petition for Scott's removal is nothing more than a waste of electrons.

We're stuck with the prick for two more years.

As for Holder.....

after the illegal election activities that occurred in medical marijuana dispensaries.

with no expectation of it going anywhere....the legislature here is firmly under the thumb of the republican party.

Wasn't what Jeb did just as bad or worse than today?

her boney finger in POTUS face!

He's up for re-election in 2014. He's very unpopular and he's folding on the ACA.

This is fucking stupid politics.

But with a Republican House and Senate...I don't see how he will be impeached.

Or just a few of them?

I'm one of the people of Florida and I haven't heard a damned thing about this.


The subject line is misleading. Not just because I haven't heard of it, but it doesn't seem to be a leading story.

Not that Scott doesn't deserve it, but this won't go anywhere.

like they narrowly defeated the recall of Scott Walker, but it could be worth a try!

By writing letters to the editor?

Sorry. Not my style.

By renting a billboard?
Sorry, not gonna happen.

By standing on a street corner with a sign?
I've got better things to do.

Look... This idea has no legs. It isn't going anywhere. Scott is a dickweed, but he hasn't broken any laws while in office.

The reason he got elected in the first place is because Florida democrats stayed home in 2010, and he was elected by less than 30% of eligible voters, the majority of whom were republicans in that election.

This will be exactly as effective as the plethora of state secession petitions.

It will go nowhere.

We will get him in '14.

He'll have his ass handed to him in 2014 and be a one term governor, just like Allan West is a one term congressman.

I see signatures from other states.

I know it's an empty gesture -- it won't go any further than the stupid secession petitions -- but it made me feel good, dammit!

All of them?

A majority of them?

Or 4,000 people signing an online petition, representing 0.002% of the population (assuming nobody from out of State signed as well).

I respect the right to petition the Government, but I consider this to be as serious as all the "secession" petitions, with the same type of flamboyant titles, that people are obsessing over.

.002% is not bad at all considering the petition just appeared.

Rick Scott has such a bad track record--I thought it was incredibly blatant when he ordered that thorough drug testing be carried out on all public assistance recipients (testing which resulted in no correlation between public assistance need and drugs) -- and had ordered the actual testing to be done FOR PROFIT by his own company, which he had oh-so-cleverly transferred over to his wife's name.

It is one crime right after the other with Rick Scott! 8 hours in line for Floridians to vote because of Rick Scott's partisan mainipulation??? Impeachment is certainly well-deserved in this case--1000 times over.

...close your web-browser. Open your word-processor, and WRITE an ACTUAL MESSAGE to your elected representatives, if you want to be taken seriously.

Hope you write your legislators-Scott's policies are terrible for our democracy and I don't even live in your state. Do it for the rest of us-our national health is somewhat dependent on who is in power in Florida, especially in presidential election years!

Since he can't be successfully recalled. We should have had a ballot initiative this voting session on changing the recall procedure.

he made epic efforts in trying to suppress voting

But we have a Legislature that will ensure it does not happen.

page not found on the change.org link and service unavailable for the dailykos.com link.

all your work means nothing while GOP controls who counts the votes!

change your Secretary of State!!!!

One of those should be his relationship with a drug testing facility, the ownership shares of which were transferred to his wife's blind trust before he actually took office, and all of the subsequent drug-testing he initiated once in office that that same drug-testing entity in his wife's blind trust probability profited from.

Here are two links. The first is an ACLU document which describes the various horrors in different drug testing measures Scott implemented. I hope everyone reads it -- it is horrific. The second link describes the drug-testing company he and his wife are invested in.

Hands down, no question, this is a huge conflict of interest, and Scott against the best interests of his constituents to make a profit for himself.

So along with all of the voter suppression acts, add this and several other maneuvers that have been in the news, and shame the damn Republican legislature down there into not protecting this pitiful excuse for a human being.

"TALLAHASSEE —

New court filings in a lawsuit over Gov. Rick Scott’s mandatory drug testing of applicants for welfare assistance reveal a hastily patched-together system marked by a lack of protocol and uniformity and concerns by state workers that the process was overreaching.

Documents filed by the American Civil Liberties Union of Florida on Monday revealed that one applicant with kidney failure and on dialysis was forced to submit urine via a catheter. Another had to leave her young children alone with a drug test company employee while going to the bathroom to provide a urine sample. And one batch of drug tests from an unapproved lab in West Palm Beach was found in a box in a Department of Children and Families office.

Dozens of applicants who tested positive for drugs were then referred to the state abuse hotline and investigated, the records showed, although testing positive for drugs alone is not a reason for an investigation under other circumstances."

"Florida Governor Rick Scott passed into law a bill mandating drug testing for those on public assistance. The company he founded, Solantic, does a big drug testing business. Although Scott divested himself of interest in the company in January, the controlling share went to a trust in his wife’s name.

This raised a groundswell of concern and questions about his health policy initiatives, especially his push to move Medicaid into private HMOs. Solantic does not take Medicaid but does business with private Medicaid HMOs. The questions are growing louder with Scott’s executive order on drug testing.

Solantic charges $35 for drug tests. The main customers? People who want advance reassurance they will pass an upcoming drug test for work or parole, and worried parents who bring in wayward teens…"

At the very least, this is malfeasance in office:

While he might deserve it... (yes evidence and all that), what makes people think that he will be impeached by his own party? Impeachment is a political act.

would probably be even worse.
