Rick Scott Will Lay Out Cuts For Developmentally Disabled, Then Attend A Special Olympics Photo-op

Today, Florida Gov. Rick Scott (R) will announce deep cuts to programs that help the developmentally disabled in his state. Scott will invoke his “emergency powers” to impose a 15 percent cut to the rates charged by group home workers and case workers that help the 30,000 Floridians ...

Those who provide services to the developmentally disabled are already decrying the cuts. “This would be a catastrophe,” … Even more galling, today — the same day his cuts are announced — Scott is scheduled to appear at a Special Olympics Torch Run with his wife and other state officials…... http://rickscottsucks.us/?p=3619

as long as they are the richy rich, white collar criminals...one day an ADULT will come along and put a stop to all this tomfoolery.

In all that they do and all that we say, they just keep moving right along. God help us all. . . . .

the participants in the photo op turned their backs to the official photog every time Rickie boy got in the picture.

Someone should show up at the photo-op with leaflets and signs proclaiming his hypocrisy.

can't disinvite him?

:(

lessen their fund raising abilities among real supporters of the Special Olympics. Wouldn't they raise more if they took a stand against allowing him there?

What a mad world...
