"Patrick tour to promote book is detailed " by March 26, 2011
Governor Deval Patrick will embark on a two-week book tour next month that will take him to Washington, NewYork, and Chicago and put him on the ‘‘Today’’ show and other high-visibility venues, his publisher said yesterday. The busy schedule is sure to renew criticism that Patrick’s attempt to sell his memoir and become a national figure are distracting him from his duties to the state. His book tour also includes appearances on ‘‘The Daily Show,’’ ‘‘Real Time with Bill Maher,’’ National Public Radio’s ‘‘Morning Edition,’’ ‘‘The Tavis Smiley Show,’’ and MSNBC-TV.
I do not watch any of those programs. It's all controlled-opposition garbage.

"Governor hits the road in April to promote book
In addition to his political travels, Governor Deval Patrick will embark on a book tour next month that will take him to Washington, New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles over an 18-day period and put him on the “Today’’ show and other high-visibility venues, his publisher said Friday.
Not to nitpick, but that is more than two weeks. If they can't even get that right (sigh)....
The busy schedule is sure to renew criticism that Patrick’s attempts to sell his memoir and become a national figure are distracting him from his duties to the state.
Patrick’s spokesman Brendan Ryan said the events are spread out and that the governor will be out of the state for a cumulative total of seven days.
What's the carbon footprint on all this?
Anyone who owns a radio or television will find it hard to miss Patrick during the tour.
Oh, yeah? Just watch me!!
It includes appearances on “The Daily Show,’’ “Real Time with Bill Maher,’’ National Public Radio’s “Morning Edition,’’ the “Tavis Smiley’’ show, and MSNBC.

Good. I don't want anymore deals made with Israel. The only way I would is if they started treating Palestinians and Arabs with dignity and respect instead of stealing their land and destroying their villages.
