Sunshine on Black Politics







Joyner



"WASHINGTON HAS COME TO TALLAHASSE!"


No self-respecting Republican wants to hear that description. Particularly, if you're a Republican from Florida who uses Washington as a whipping boy for just about everything that's wrong with America.

But, here is the Florida Legislature, a Republican controlled body that is doing its best dysfunctional impersonation of another legislative body that's controlled by Republicans -- Congress.

Go figure.

It took state Senate Democratic Leader Arthenia Joyner to do the calling out. Clearly, it's not the Democrats who are calling the shots in the lawmakers' botched attempts to draw congressional and state senate district maps. At the rate they're going, it won't be the GOP's prerogative either.

The courts will have to do it.
