I just love it when I hear conservative Republicans and Tea Partyers talk of fraud and abuse of government programs. Why do they forget the governor of Florida, Rick Scott?

We all know when Scott was CEO of Columbia/HCA, the hospital consortium was fined around $1.7 BILLION for Medicare fraud and abuse. Scott stepped down as CEO and said he knew nothing. What kind of CEO knows nothing of the fraud going on under his nose?

Also, IF "even a lame debater like McCain was holding his own against Obama", why did the Republicans lose in 2008? Oh, it must have been the Tea Party supported person in the VP slot - Ms. Sarah Palin of Wasilla, Alaska.
