This past October, Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, was in Pittsburgh campaigning for U.S. Sen. Rick Santorum. Apparently Jeb Bush antagonized anti-Santorum demonstrators by blowing them a kiss. In the chaos that ensued Bush was forced to take refuge in a train station supply closet.
In other news Kansas state Rep. Vaughn Flora was charged with a misdemeanor after an October political event when he allegedly roughed up an anti-abortion protester dressed as a cockroach. Why would a protester dress as a cockroach? I think that’s a story in itself.
Last August, in Tampa, Tony Katz – a public-access TV host – threw a chair at his guest, county commission candidate Joe Redner, hitting him in the head after he had called Redner a liar and Redner had called him fat.
I thought politicians and TV Hosts were supposed to be refined folk? I guess not if this kind of behaviour proves anything.
