Governor Patrick is at it again....

He is scheduled to go on another "trade mission" to Colombia.
Why can't he just say it up front.....that he's taking a tax-payer funded vacation with a bunch of his closest flunkies?

I mean, no one with over an ounce of intelligence believes that he is going to do anything "trade" related, unless it's to guarantee citizenship to some Colombian officials flunkies.

Well, it's either that or you could be really wrong.

I believe Columbia has special trade status with the US. Massachusetts in 2011 exported nearly 100 million dollars worth of goods to Columbia. That is likely to benefit primarily private businesses.

If you don't think that should be of interest to the Gubner I'm not sure what should be.
