What is this guy doing? [Patrick Budget up 80%]

Still, Republicans succeeded in winning approval of a measure in the overwhelmingly Democratic Senate that would force Patrick to post online the job titles and duties of all employees in his office.

How would you sleep at night, knowing not only that you live off of the public trough, but also that your job title contained the words "grass roots" ?

Here we have several more hacks, with jobs for life regardless of job performance, who will get a pension for life too. Welcome to Taxachusetts.

‘What is this guy doing?’

He’s bilking the taxpayers; just like ALL politicians.

AND, if anyone is thinking about voting for HUSSEIN, this is what you’ll get,,,,a complete and total arrogant incompetent fool.

"What’s more, Patrick is spending more than $450,000 on an office in Washington, D.C.,
to help lure federal dollars to fund Medicaid, transportation, housing and other priorities.

How strange. With Kennedy, Kerry, Frank, and the other heavyweights running Committess,
why these new expenditures for lobbying?
Must be the needed alcohol, drugs, whores, Cadillacs, curtains, and other kool perks.

“We have Democratic delegation who’s in the majority in Congress, we have Democratic state Legislature and we have a Democratic governor, so why is all this money necessary for the Washington, D.C., office?”

Because your main pork pimp has brain cancer.

[WayneS]

This qualifies as a acandal, and the Governor’s name does not have the obligatory (R) or (D) after it.

Thus “WayneS’s Law” would cause him to predict that the governor is a democrat; for if he was a republican his party affiliation would have been mentioned four times in the opening paragraph.

How’d I do?

From the Guv's web site:

Grassroots Governance

This office supports the Governor’s commitment to civic engagement by enhancing transparency and civic awareness, creating forums for policy discussion and valuing citizens’ opinions when they are shared. Working closely with agencies, Secretariats, Boards and Commissions and civil society institutions, this office facilitates citizen participation. Interns should be friendly, reliable, creative and show a commitment to civic engagement and public service.

So "Grassroots Governance" is a code phrase for what ?

[milwguy]

Exactly....Obama is cut from the same cloth. The new royalty, the messiah, the change we have been waiting for. Just bend over taxpayers, Obama is going to ream you good.

[AmericaUnited]

Obama’s clone is action.

Interns should be friendly, reliable, creative and show a commitment to civic engagement and public service.

[AmericaUnited]

IN action

[Disturbin]

You done good.

The article also fails to mention that Patrick is good buddies with Obama and the two of them admittedly share exact quotes in their speeches. Perhaps they share a brain.

To quote Sallah in Radiers of the Lost Ark: “they have not one brain among them.”

[dashing doofus]

Obama lite. A preview of the nation, if the Manchurian candidate charms his way into the White House.

[NewHampshireDuo]

Were Barack Hussein to become President, Deval Patrick would be in his administration in a flash.

[Disturbin]

“So ‘Grassroots Governance’ is a code phrase for what ?”

Rubbish.

Thievery through taxation.

Hackerama.

LOL, take your pick.

[upchuck]

I was on a driving trip and passed through Mass. when this guy was running for office. I heard many of his commercials on the radio. At the time I thought, “This guy’s a complete Doofus. Surly the people here in Mass are smarter than to elect this idiot.”

I was wrong, sigh...

Glad I don’t live there.

Now, I see parallels between what Patrick was spewing on the radio and Obama’s worthless pronouncements. Two peas in a pod.

Welcome to Taxachusetts.

Step right up...

[Lancey Howard]

LOL, the voters deserve EXACTLY what they elected.
No sympathy here. None.
