Orlando Sentinel writer directly calls Rick Scott a liar in article. Gov in hot seat all over paper.
After spending more than 24 hours studying Rick Scott's budget proposal, one thing is clear: Rick Scott lied.

But, hey, it's becoming increasingly clear that not everyone views the truth as that big of a deal. And some people thought Scott's budget was the bee's knees!

That's actually a word I don't use very often. In fact, I checked our archives to confirm that, in all my years of writing a column for the Sentinel, I've never called someone a flat-out "liar." That changes today.

Rick Scott claimed time and time again that he wouldn't cut school spending.

1. Prick Scott is emboldened by criticism from the media.

2. As a Floridian I always thought we were kinda a dumb state
The election of Rick Scott confirms it.

The people of our state, a state neck deep in Medicare beneficiaries, elected the man who shepherded well care to the largest Medicare fraud in history.

Idiots.

3. Rick Scott's budget is a lie.
On Rick Scott's budget:


"If you drive on the roads, have a child in school, a parent in a nursing home, or would simply like to enjoy Florida's beaches and parks, the budget is an F. However, If you are CEO of a large corporation, Scott's budget is an A." ----State Rep. Scott Randolph, D-Orlando

6. He forgot to add "...if you're one of the state's 1.2 million unemployed..."
