Hope and Change in Massachusetts


$175,000 Plum Job For Governors Pal


Boston Herald- Outrage is sweeping Beacon Hill after Gov. Deval Patrick quietly slipped a $175,000 plum job to a political pal while squeezing taxpayers to pay more for less from the debt-ridden state government.


Asking citizens to fork over 19 cents more per gallon at the gas pump while bracing for cuts of cops and teachers, Patrick awarded supporter Marian Walsh the pricey plum as assistant executive director of the state’s Health and Educational Facilities Authority.


The job has been vacant for 12 years. The appointment of Walsh, 54, a Democratic state senator from West Roxbury, was revealed amid news of a $1 billion state deficit while Patrick continued his vacation in Jamaica.


This is the guy that Obama used to plagiarize on the campaign trail. This is the guy who ran on the exact same platform. They used the same phrases, such as hope and yes we can. Axelrod was in charge of running both these clowns and we see what has happened to Massachusetts. The rest of the country isn't far behind.
They both promised to reform politics and make it transparent. The only shocking thing is Obamas first two months in office might be worst than Devals, and thats saying something.
