That guy? No way.
The GOP congressional people are bad enough, but the local yokels are even worse, if possible.
See you later Frank, and good riddance…
Yet another entry for next Republican POTUS primaries, this one with a good chance to be nominated.
Over drinks at the Governors Club in Tallahassee, the Herald reported, Artiles complained to his two colleagues that the state’s Senate president had won that position due to the votes of “six niggers” in his caucus. Gibson and Thurston told the Herald that Artiles later said he had used the word “niggas.”

I realize it was terribly offensive and off the charts tacky, but I’d have laughed my ass off at Senator Doofus gettin’ all fly.
I’ve lost my temper plenty of times and here’s a list of things I never did as a result:
- choke my wife
- try to excommunicate my ex-wife from our church
- call anybody a n-----
I guess these are more signs that I am not a real American.
Artiles apologized to Gibson on Senate floor: “I am so sorry…”
“That I got caught.”
