Patrick's Lip Service

It's not just his, it's his party's.

"Patrick takes combative tone as he stumps for Obama in N.H.; Says Congress, not president, needs to be voted out" November 06, 2011|By Martine Powers, Globe Staff

PORTSMOUTH, N.H. - Governor Deval Patrick swept through southern New Hampshire yesterday stumping for President Obama’s 2012 reelection bid, lambasting Republicans and shoring up support for the president at two Democrat-sponsored events....

Patrick’s message focused on the Republicans, calling them divisive and blaming them for stalling Obama’s efforts to turn the country around.  

As he divisively casts blame. You have to love that Massachusetts hypocrisy.

“We ought not be talking about changing out the president,’’ he said. “We ought to be talking about changing out the Congress.’’  

Well, VOTERS GAVE DEMOCRATS a SUPER MAJORITY for TWO YEARS and all we got was a crappy corporate health plan tax.  All this tax-the-rich talk now when they not only didn't repeal the Bush tax cuts, they extended them.  We've gone from Republican to Democrat rule over the last ten years and nothing has changed other than the fannies in the chairs. Tells you a lot about the "two-party" system.

********************

“Democrats have to stand up for the politics of conviction,’’ Patrick said. “The American dream is worth fighting for.’’  

And that is what the WALL STREET PROTESTERS are doing!!

“We no longer have conditions for the American dream; that actually does not exist anymore.’’ 

And that is BOSTON, folks, capital of Patrick's (and my) home state.

Debbie DiFranco, 62, of Portsmouth, said she thought Patrick’s speech yesterday afternoon struck the right tone to kick off the presidential campaign.

“Perfect. It was perfect,’’ DiFranco said. “What I’m thinking now is, Patrick 2016. I would follow him anywhere.’’

Yikes! Blind devotion to any leader brings about bad things.
