OK, someone mentioned in another thread that "Florida in the news again?" And at the time I only smirked. BUT then this story hit our news over the
weekend, and I have mutual friends with the folks directly involved, and I'm just flabbergasted!
The real kicker here, is that Lt. Governor Carrol is probably MORE popular than Governor Scott, but here we have an insane scandal, that appears to be
true, and the Lt. Governor's response is even more insane than the scandal!
Where is the woman who allegedly had hot lesbian sex with Florida's Lt. Governor in her office?
You can't make a headline like that up!
So there is the allegation...
(Cole) walked into the Lt. Governors Jennifer Carroll's office and observed the Lt. Governor sitting at her desk with her foot up on the cadenza
and her skirt hiked up. Beatrice Ramos was kneeling in front of Carroll, poised as if she (Ramos) was about to or had performed oral sex on the Lt.
Governor.
And here is the insane response? From a Lt. Governor?
Carroll gave a typically insane statement denying that she was a lesbian. Money quote: "I'm the one that's married for 29 years. The accuser is
the one that's single for a long time. So. Usually black women that look like me don't engage in relationships like that.
Really? Somewhat attractive, late middle aged black women, are never lesbians?
Now, the allegations could be unfounded, but from the people who are carrying this rumor around the capital, they are completely well-founded, and not
isolated in nature. WOW.
This kind of put's Clinton to shame.
Speaking of Clinton, there was a Cigar in this story, but it wasn't part of the sex scandal, it was part of the insane coverup that resulted in a
trashcan fire that threatened the very capital building!
There's also a whole side scandal about Beatriz Ramos trying to set Cole's trash can on fire, which could have burned down the Florida State
Capitol. And a subsequent scandalous squelching of a state investigation of that incident. We are not making any of this up. Just normal Florida
news.
Not only a retributory trashcan fire, started by a cigar, but also a Fire Marshall coverup?
Florida Politics are getting better than Illinois these days!
