Tampa Bay Times: ‘Modern-day Anita Bryant’ Pam Bondi (Attorney General) is Florida’s Loser of 2014

http://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/community/gay-south-florida/article5072805.html

Loser of 2014

Pam Bondi. It's hard to imagine how someone who won re-election so handily (rival George Sheldon could not afford a single TV ad) could emerge from 2014 more wounded and diminished as our Republican attorney general. Put aside the unseemly junkets funded by groups seeking to influence her. Bondi's clumsy communication skills and relentless defense of Florida's gay marriage ban have made her a modern-day Anita Bryant. Antagonizing Florida's gay voters over same-sex marriage and Hispanic voters over immigration reform ensures Bondi has a bright political future ahead of her — if she moves to Mississippi.

Bondi is on her third marriage, having divorced twice, and dumped a fiancée.

"Sanctity of marriage" my ass.

...jokes about women with blond hair?? Pam Bondi is the reason why. The poor thing has the thinking power of a retarded squirrel.
She makes up facts and reality like a 2 year old boy lost in the woods. 3 minutes into one of her "speeches" will cause you to wish for an asteroid to collide with the earth. NO MATTER that all of the populace will be burned alive beyond recognition. It would be worth it....

Having re-elected both Bondi and Gov. Voldemort. Now they are stuck with them. Both will continue to cause pain and suffering while experiencing none themselves.

how amendment 2 was defeated with 57% of the voters voting for it, but prickscott was re elected by only a smaller percentage of voters.

I live here and wonder," What the hell are these folks smokin?"

after all. Like they need a bigger stage to fall on.

This is certainly the case with Ms Pam Bondi and her stupid Anita Byrant imitation.

Thanks RKP
