More Jeb Bush Shenanigans
Nursing home entrepreneur helping to oversee $310 million in Scripp's money
Palm Beach
Post, FL 6-13-04
- ….she was handpicked
by Gov. Jeb Bush, whom she calls a friend, to sit on the board of the Scripps
Florida Funding Corp. As chair of the board's audit committee…
- …"When you see her
coming to meetings with a rhinestone-encrusted cellphone on which she makes
loud calls about which politician should or should not be allowed on her jet,
you feel like saying: 'We work for poor people. Why are you rubbing your
wealth in their faces?' "…
- ...In a world where
money talks, Fago, 53, has been screaming — and gaining in stature. She
pledged $1 million to Scripps. She and her companies have made gifts to
Republican causes totaling at least $400,000 since 2001. She co-hosts
fund-raising parties that rake in $400,000 a night and is closing in on the $1
million mark as a fund-raiser, making her a key player in the reelection
campaigns of Republicans such as President Bush and U.S. Reps. Katherine
Harris and Mark Foley....
- …Fago was also
getting into trouble with the IRS, local businesses and the law — facts that
did not keep her from recently being named to chair the audit committee of the
Scripps Florida Funding Corp. The committee hires auditors, goes over audits
to ensure that money is going to the right places and ensures that Scripps
fulfills its promises to the state, mainly the creation of 545 high-level
jobs….
And to top
it off, this woman was married to a drug lord tied to Pablo Escobar...I wonder
if she knows George W's friend, Chalabi?
The Bushes
place kinda shady friends in high places, eh?
FCAT may fuel big GED numbers
St.
Petersburg Times, FL 6-14-04
…One reason for the
increase is obvious, education experts say: Many of the 27,000 high school
seniors who failed the FCAT in the past two years are turning to the next best
thing, the GED, which comedian Chris Rock calls the "Good Enough Diploma."
At the same time, the
test that symbolizes Gov. Jeb Bush's school reform efforts is helping to drive
out struggling students such as Laitinen, with some of them resurfacing in GED
classes, educators say….
Now that
George Tenet has resigned as CIA chief, I'm looking forward to the publication
of his book, Iraq Invasion for Dummies -- A Slam Dunk.
