Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

I got as far as "Irma hasn't hooked" and then short circuit.

Thanks, darlin'. Hunkered down at my parents' house with the roommate and cat. It's eerily calm outside right now. Just waiting for the thrill. I've been through fires, earthquakes, mudslides, and blizzards, but this will be my first hurricane. While I normally think of Governor Scott as kind of an idiot, I'm impressed with how he's been handling this shit.

Yeah.  Idiot is the correct word.  Greedy cocksucker comes to mind too.

Quote:Here is how Florida Gov. Rick Scott escalated the potential for catastrophic flooding from Hurricane Irma

Quote:Development policies enacted by Florida Governor Rick Scott have exacerbated the potential for catastrophic flooding from Hurricane Irma, The Intercept reports.

“The Republican governor prioritized development over ecological restoration of wetlands. Scott cut funding for the state’s water management districts in 2011, leading to staff reductions and less funding for ecosystem restoration projects,” The Intercept explained. “Around the same time, Scott signed the state legislature’s repeal of the state’s 1985 growth management law, leading to a spike in development.”

How nice of him to tell people who are in harm's way because of him that they should get out.
