BOSTON -- A Massachusetts state representative and a conservative talk show host in the Hub are squaring off after the state rep blasted the radio personality in an obscenity-laced e-mail Thursday.

"Michael Graham is a (expletive deleted)," State Rep. David Torrisi, a North Andover Democrat wrote in an e-mail response to a Graham show producer's request to be on the talk show. "He can go (expletive deleted) himself for all I care."

Torrisi, who was being invited on the show to discuss his opposition to a proposal to ban state benefits for illegal immigrants, later told Statehouse News Service he regretted his choice of words, but still felt the same about 96.9 talk show host Michael Graham.

All of these people need to be RUN OUT OF TOWN. They have no business running/ruining our lives. Take a hike, go get a job where you wont affect our families.

Yes and they’re so arrogant...they claim they shouldn’t go on a talk radio show to defend their position because we’re all a bunch of yahoos, the issue is more complicated than people
think, etc. The reality is they don’t want to face people
with an opposing view, even in civil debate.

The email address for the Rep. is in the screengrab above, if you’d like to offer YOUR opinion. (Also note that Graham’s station address is in the email and yes, they ARE right down the street from the paper Graham calls “The Boston Globe-
Democrat” (135 Morrissey v. 55 Morrissey...when you drive down the S.E. expressway you see the WTKK/Greater Media bldg, the former studios of Ch 56, and el Globo)

>>“I think people like Michael Graham … add nothing to the debate. They stir up the worst in people.”

Uh, so asking a state representative to discuss an issue
on the radio for 8 minutes can stir up said representative
to reply with an obscenity laced tirade? I guess he does
stir up the worst in...SOME...people!

Wow, he couldn’t just say he disagrees with the man and declined the invitation? Or just decline citing other commitments?

Why should a liberal run the risk of debating when he can go to one of the vast preponderance of friendly media outlets and LIE with imputinity and without fear of having your lie challenged?

This AZ thing is the latest most obvious example - the glassy eyed, spittle-flecked lies are flying like I've never seen before.

He’s a Massachusetts Democrat (right up there with the Kennedy family’s famous saying DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM???)

Just remember, those on the Left are tolerant, peace loving, and respectful while we’re foul mouthed, violent, fascists
(or so THEY say!)

My favorite moment was during the Iraq war when Laura Ingraham had a lawyer on from a group called “Lawyers Against the War”. Laura asked him politely whether or not we were better off with Saddam out of power. He refused to answer.
Asked again, refused again, then hung up...and when Laura’s
producer called him back he swore at the producer and hung up. Can’t answer a simple question, and flees when pressed
(politely) to do so.

another angry, hate-filled lefty. You would think that with Obama in the office and the Dems in charge, a peaceful bliss would come over these people...but no. Nothing can make these people happy as they are miserable people who want the people around them to be as miserable as they are.

I'm not half as mad at leftist politicians as I am the not-so-stealthly marxist phonies in the media and acedamia.

Those bastards DEAL in dishonesty while pretending objectivity.
