There are much better issues to hit Scott on.

I'm not sure Rick Scott had that in mind when he greenlighted that logo.
I don't think he had anything in mind when he greenlighted that....

The real issue here is that he hired a Tennessee firm to design it rather than a Florida one.

I would be mighty pissed if my tax dollars went to that project.  There are no branding professionals in Florida that can compete with the marketing geniuses in Appalachia?

ChappellRoberts is a Tampa-area branding & marketing firm. Its President and CEO is Colleen Chappell, a woman. Wonder if they would've done this...

Looks like a bottle of Tropicana Orange Juice. I find it aesthetically unappealing, but whatev.  Sadly, we also have further examples of people desperately looking for an excuse to have hurt feelings. If this is what sets off your sexist/classist button, you're crazy trigger happy. Save it for the instiutions that are truly sexist (like the Catholic Church) or truly classist (like the entire platform of the Republican Party).

Here's some options for you.
-Biggest Medicare fraud in this nation's history.
-Bulldozing state parks to put up private golf courses.
-Attempting to develop Seminole land
-Slashing pay/benefits for teachers/police/firefighters, then trying to reverse the damage.
-Spending hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars to refurbish his office.
-Destruction of coral reefs
-Shortening the early voting period
-The Amendments on the ballot (confusing, long, double-negativey)
-IIRC, lowest approval ratings in Florida history

Who the hell thinks business when Florida comes up?

When it's a logo for an agency devoted to bringing businesses to Florida?
