1. She's a hell of a lot more than that. Another corrupt appointment.

Gov. Bush picks major Republican donor to oversee state elections

By John Kennedy
Tallahassee Bureau
Posted December 8 2005

TALLAHASSEE · Gov. Jeb Bush turned to an old family friend and contributor Wednesday to succeed former Orlando Mayor Glenda Hood as Florida secretary of state.

Sue Cobb, 68, a Coral Gables lawyer who served as U.S. Ambassador to Jamaica the past four years, will take over as the state's top elections official in January, Bush said.

Cobb earlier worked with Bush as a member of his first transition team, helping set up the new administration following the 1998 election. She stayed on several months as interim director of the Florida Lottery.

Cobb and her husband, Chuck Cobb, also are major Republican donors with ties to the Bush family that stretch back almost 20 years. (continued)

4. Her and her husband gave the Bush/Cheney Team
$5000 for the 2000 Election Recount, so obviously she does not believe in counting every vote. That alone should be enough to disqualify her.

2. I don't trust any of these rats
:scared:

:grr:

That's two in a row they've stolen...f***ers...

As soon as any member of the B*** family announces a nominee for anything, that person should probably be arrested. Trust me, you couldn't possibly be far wrong!
