Deval Patrick: 'Without knowing all the facts, of course I wanted an indictment'

Deval Patrick was on Meet the Press this week-end. When asked about the Grand Jury decision he said: “Without knowing all the facts, of course I wanted an indictment.”

Wow. Just, wow.

Patrick summed up in one short sentence exactly what is wrong with progressive “thinking” and attitudes. He admitted that he wanted a particular outcome, even in the face of not knowing all the facts.

But almost as egregious as that was his assertion that we don’t know all the facts. Because, hello? Yes we do!

What does he think the Grand Jury was poring over these past several months? What does he think their decision was based on? Does he not realize the Grand Jury was painstakingly separating fact from fiction in order to render a just verdict?

Not satisfied with his utterly absurd and inflammatory statement, Patrick had more nonsense to spew when he said a trial “would be good for the community.”

So now it’s reasonable to suggest that we throw our criminal justice system out the window so we can have theatre in the form of an unwarranted trial for the good of “the community?”

This is the same guy who, as Chairman of Texaco's Equality and Fairness Task Force to oversee implementation of the terms of a race discrimination settlement, told all us Texaco employees we were racists.

People in Massachusetts deserve better than someone who only sees black and white.

No, they don't.

This is exactly what they deserve. These are the people they elect to represent them.

He and the race hustler industry bought into the “gentle giant” without any facts, and, then were forced to double down on their bet when facts bared a thug.

Same piece of crap who decided FBI sniper Lon Horiuchi was right to murder Mrs. Weaver at Ruby Ridge. Hope he rots in hell, and the sooner, the better.

One absolutely defining characteristic of liberals: they can never, ever, EVER admit they were wrong.

I’d like to quote someone who, I believe, had this as their tagline here on FR a week or two ago. I wish I’d said this:

Liberalism is a state of mind that makes it seem right to select Barabbas to go free rather than Jesus. (Paraphrase).

They wanted and needed the narrative to “agitate to the point of conflict”.
