Gov. Deval Patrick defended President Barack Obama’s handling of the economy on Tuesday morning, blaming a “sclerosis” in Congress for impeding the president’s ability to make the type of investments that have been successful in Massachusetts.

Describing his administration’s three-legged stool for economic development – education, innovation and infrastructure – Patrick pointed to 23,000 jobs created in the first two months of 2012 and growth in the biotechnology and clean energy sectors as proof that his strategy is paying off.

While critics of a stimulus law say it may have worsened the nation’s fiscal problems, the governor said 90,000 people in Massachusetts can directly attribute their paycheck to Obama’s stimulus bill.

And how much money did Massachusetts get for those 90,000 jobs?

[molson209]

Math and liberals are not friends.

They are not acquainted.

H*ll, they aren’t even in remotely close universes.

Which 'people' are these? People receiving massive Gubmint handouts and entitlements.

Devil Patrick is such a piece of shiite.

It’s Boston.....like San Francisco....not really part of the United States.

A Tool and a Fool

"Governor Deval Patrick made history again today with one of his judicial selections, nominating Barbara A. Lenk, an associate justice of the state Appeals Court who is married to a same-sex partner, to a seat on the Supreme Judicial Court."

He don’t know him too good do he?

How do you even begin to defend hussein's economic record? Trillions of debt. Highest sustained unemployment since the great depression. Two words: green energy. How's that Chevy Volt selling? Ha, if he makes good on his threat to buy one it'll actually have a measurable effect on sales percentage (for you lib lurkers out there not so good at math, that's because total sales are so low)

hussein hasn't done one single thing right. Maybe that's the only defensible thing you could say: he's consistent in his economic policy - always wrong, always bad for America and business.

I think I'd rather defend Saddam Hussein's human rights record, or radical Islam's record on working Christians.

Governor Deval Patrick would love to do to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts just exactly what Obama’s done to the nation, and he’s well on the way.
