Funny/sickening story from the Tampa Bay Times about Gov. Rick Scott's discreet return of a photo-op "rescue dog" after he won the election.
While on the campaign trail, he posted a picture of the Labrador retriever and had a Facebook contest to name the animal.
His FB friends chose the name of one of the worst American presidents.
After the election, reporters started asking what happened to Reagan the dog. The governor's press spokesmen got very testy and evasive, prompting one reporter to ask if the dog had been killed!
Finally someone asked the Governor directly and he admitted that Reagan had some behavioral issues and "wouldn't get better." Staffers then confirmed that Reagan had been returned to All Pets Grooming and Boarding in Naples.
