Deval once again proves he's out of touch with the common folk. How about donating all of the money to the Pine Street Inn or Boston Food Bank? I can't wait to vote against Mr. Clueless.

You are so right. The Obama crowd, Duval in this case, but Eric Holder decision to hold the 9/11 trial in New York ( what's wrong with
a moutain state with fewer opportunities for the bad guys to do mischief) to Obama's posing for the camera every second. They are really out of touch with mainstream american sensibilities, customs and manners.

The latest is that Gov Patrick held back federal stimulus funds from cities and towns until he got a promise from your local politicians that they would vote for the Massachusetts Wind Energy Siting Reform Act . The governor has kept local fire and police departments without adequate funding in order to get the votes from the legislature this week .The funds are being given out to cities and towns this week as the legislature is about to pass the proposed Wind Energy Siting Reform Act .

The Wind Energy Siting Reform Act will strip local control over the siting of industrial wind power plants and associated roads and transmission lines. Under this Act, the state Energy Facilities Siting Board will have the power to forever alter the character and prosperity of our communities. The health of our environment and economy depend upon local control, and we oppose any effort by the state to override our community rights.

The beneficiaries of the Massachusetts Wind Energy Siting Reform Act are likely to be those citizens with disproportionate influence and power in the political process, including large corporations and development firms.

These are your rights and your money being stolen from you this week Nov 2009
