Here’s one of the many, many reasons why most people hate politicians.
There is no graver responsibility and act of state government than an execution.
In Florida this week, a campaign fundraiser takes precedence.
Attorney General Pam Bondi persuaded Gov. Rick Scott to postpone an execution scheduled for [Tuesday night] because it conflicted with her re-election kick-off reception.
Not that I’m in favor of the death penalty, but when you put your cocktail/shakedown party ahead of doing your job, you have a real problem.
Watching the Bondi campaign when it got started, I thought of her as primarily an amoral opportunistic weathervane – changing tacks whenever the popular vote altered. Whodathunk she was Bellatrix Lestrange in disguise.
