You just can't make this shit up...FL Gov urges fans to write letters to various newspapers, then writes the letter for them...

Florida Teabag Governor Rick Scott has been having a really tough go of it since sliming his way into office. His approval ratings are almost in the teens and continue to circle the bowl as he pushes forward with his radical right-wing agenda, and the residents of the Sunshine State have rapidly become aware of what a nasty piece of work they put in office. Therefore the Governor has decided he must do something about it.

Scott's solution to this situation is to ask his supporters (all 140 of them) to write letters to the editors of various state newspapers touting his achievements and his experience. In most normal cases that's fair enough, nothing wrong with asking your base to get the word out, however in his own unique style, Gov Scott has provided his followers with a pre-written letter that they can copy and paste. That's right, he wrote the letters for them, so that all they have to do is pass them along. I'm not sure whether he did this because he was worried that no-one would be able to come up with enough positive things to say about him to fill up more than one sentence, or if he thinks his supporters are so stupid that they'd get confused with tough things like sentence structure, or how to spell the word 'Governor'. Either way, this has to be one of the whackiest things I have ever seen. No word yet on whether any of these letters have actually been published yet, but I'm sure we'll find out soon enough.

Like I said, you just can't make this shit up...
