Capt. Jack is back

Three new members of the Florida House were sworn in this morning.

Make that four.

Rep. Jack Seiler corrected the record to reflect another addition, Capt. Jack Sparrow. He was busting on Rep. Rene Garcia, R-Miami, who in the off season acquired facial hair that makes him look like the Pirates of the Caribbean character.

"We have a long tradition of piracy here," joked House Speaker Marco Rubio. Garcia took the ribbing in stride, laughing and covering his face with a stack of papers.

That's no joke, "Rube"... it the most honest thing I've heard from Tallytown in years.

You would think the blogs would be full of real stories and not fluff pieces. What's next? Anybody want to discuss Britney?

Welcome to the 24 hour news cycle. They report, you edit (for content and facts.)

Well, 10:26… if the “Lying, do nothing” Governor and Legislature would actually do something of substance rather than make “jokes” and schedule photo ops… perhaps the blog would be filled with “real stories” of interest and matter.

But these monkey sticks are too busy jerking off in public bathrooms and chasing the camera to focus on the lies they told to get elected.

10:42- LMAO!!!
I think Garcia looks more like Stalin than Jack Sparrow. I hope the new look doesn't reflect some evil communist plot.

10:26 - yes please. gimme more.

How can anyone compare the sexy Captain Jack Sparrow to an ugly State Rep?????????????

Hey, Garcia's not half-bad; chamber aesthetics just aren't what they used to be.....Still better than the Senate!
