the governor is at it again!!!

Or should I say he's away from it again!

Gov. Patrick, in a bold and well planned move, knowing that he will be driven out of office soon, is taking ANOTHER taxpayer vacation.

I wanted to give the guy a fair shake, hoping that he could do better than his predecessor, but I was wrong....DEAD WRONG!

In all honesty, I can't recall one good thing he has done for the state since he got elected.....twice!

If there was ever a more resounding reason/excuse for someone to be "physically" removed from office, it would only be "Slick" Willy Lantigua. He has driven the state from the top of the crop states to the toilet bowl and all he can do is duck, dodge and whine that it's not his fault.

I would be willing to bet he skipped town because he doesn't have any answer for the state's failing infrastructure, something he has been well aware of since he first took office, and did nothing about!

I'm getting fed up with his lame-arse idiotic breed of politics that claims the prize but passes the blame whenthey are responsible for both!!!

OK, I'm done for now.....

I am a legend in my own mind!

And how about the nimrod voters in this sh!thole state that voted him in again. Looking at the concentration of blue in the "metropolitan" areas ...those who abuse the system get out and vote ,but won't get up and go to work. Then theres the moonbats in the surrounding areas of the city ..but they're a whole nother problem.

I think they spent all that infrastructure money about $26 mil on our bridge to no where....and another 12 mil to temporary fix the drawbridge and do a study to replace in the next 5 years

They just built a new Groveland/Haverhill bridge that opened this year and they have started construction on a new bridge on I 95 over the Merrimack River.

I only hope I will be able to keep saving for my retirement, at which point I will leave this state and move elsewhere.

the only problem is that like gthe flu or some other disease, the POS's that voted people like Patrick in are spreading across the country. You know the type: They want it all, they are more than willing to give YOUR $$ to some illegal alien on perpetual welfare, and they want YOU to pay for their kids, and their kid's basturd children to go to the best schools so that they can keep the "gravy train" in the family!

All I know is that when the sh*t hits the fan, I'll be holding a Democrap in front of me for protection!

Boy, it must be great to be our governor?
You work short hours, if you work at all.
You get great pay and all the benefits you could want.
You get to go on great "trade missions" to exoctic locations, where we don't have any reason to trade!

Our mighty local leader is going on ANOTHER vacation....err, I mean trade mission to Europe.

Exactly what will we be trading with Denmark, the UK and France???

I can only imagine what he will be doing there, but he is our Democrap governor and can do no wrong.

Just another vacation that will cost us $150,000.000+

Yesterday, when they put his feet to the fire, he admitted that no jobs were created because of his "trade missions" over seas. He is building "relationships" that are good for businesses.
Really? He's just seeing how much of our money he can burn through before exiting office. That's all these trips amount to; tax payer funded vacations.
