Jeff Greene on Kendrick Meek: "This Guy's Record in Congress is Ridiculous"

On Thursday morning, Jeff Greene took a shot at U.S. Rep. Kendrick Meek, his chief rival for the Democratic nomination in the U.S. Senate race, saying that the congressman was milking taxpayers to pay for his car.

"Is this the experience that Kendrick Meek is bragging about Florida needing on the campaign trail? demanded Greene. He has not been able to pass one single bill, is connected to corruption scandals, does favors for his campaign contributors, gives himself thousands of dollars in pay raises, and now we learn he has taxpayers paying $14,789 annually for his car. This guy's record in Congress is ridiculous and he is clearly abusing his position on the taxpayer's dime. He is exactly what we don't need.

"This also raises the question, has the car been used solely for work-related activity?" added Greene. "He needs to return that expensive car immediately."
