“The buck stops here, and that means I take responsibility.”–Gov. Rick Scott, Feb. 5, 2015, Florida State Fair.
Somehow those “buck stops here” sentiments resonated a lot more when President Harry Truman uttered them back in the day.
And if memory serves, “Give ’em Hell” Harry didn’t follow up with something akin to: “Yeah, I could have handled it better. Now let’s move this along. Melissa (Sellers) just told me that Rick Swearingen is double-parked and waiting for me next to the dunk tank.”
Anyone else think it’s totally appropriate that this political petting zoo of a Cabinet should meet at the Florida State Fair?
And, BTW, anyone surprised that Leon County State Attorney Willie Meggs delved into the FDLE scandal about as thoroughly as he scrutinized the notorious Jameis Winston case?
