ShareGov. Deval Patrick offered a little hope yesterday for Bay State retailers that have been struggling through a year and a half of sales declines, but they’ll have to wait until next year.
Patrick told a Retailers Association of Massachusetts gathering that he would support a sales tax holiday in 2010 if state revenues stabilize.

BTY......................TREASON
A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and he carries his banners openly. But the traitor moves among those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the galleys, heard in the very hall of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor—he speaks in the accents familiar to his victims, and wears their face and their garment, and he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation—he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of a city—he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to be feared.......Cicero, 42 B.C.

AbusiveGo to NH, booze, smokes, gas, sales tax. Heck when we go for big ticket items we can eat out for free!
I wonder what "tax" the Govna will help us on in next years election!
Wait and see how much he "spends" on hacks from his election war chest to all his consultants. I bet his campaign fund will be zero and all the consultants will be getting hudreds of thousands of dollars!
