Scott Brown urges Deval Patrick to release stimulus money?
This may be a bit early for the "told you so"s as people are still celebrating their 41st vote, but come on folks, I told you so. Brown told WBUR today that he plans to meet with our governor and urge the release of federal stimulus money, the same 787 billion stimulus money that has turned into a gigantic boondoggle.
So while Marco Rubio in Florida is using the fact that Charlie Crist supported the 787 Billion stimulus to accurately expose Crist for the RINO he is, Brown now that he has been elected will ignore blatant hypocrisy. Where is the hypocrisy? Well, Brown in his third debate clearly stated that he was OPPOSED to the 787 Billion stimulus, but I guess unlike our other infamous senator, Brown was against it before he was for it. In fact Brown mentioned several times that the stimulus was ineffective, so how can he in good conscience advocate to spend money that he himself labeled as ineffective just a few weeks ago?
Simple, because like it's been said many times here, Brown is a big government liberal Republican. I am not much for labels and plenty of deluded folks here in Massachusetts bought the whole "fiscal conservative" mantra, but facts are persistent and annoying little things.
Here is what a conservative should be doing.
Instead of going to our governor and groveling for the release of taxpayer money into programs that do nothing, he should be going to the governor and urging him to HALT all further expenses from the so-called stimulus package. Furthermore he should discuss and urge the governor to take all this money and ship it back to the Federal government so that it can be used to pay down our freaking deficit! A true politician of the people elected by the people would have no problem doing so. Not only would it send a message to the rest of the country, but it will serve as the only moral and rational example of how to actually govern. Immediately stopping a program that has been hemorrhaging money left and right would truly be an example of fiscal conservatism, common sense and a spit into the face of the establishment.
But what do we get? Not only does Brown look like a hypocrite, but he does exactly what every other slimy politician does. He immediately begins siphoning money from the federal coffers in an attempt to look good in front of his constituency. Guess he figures the money will be spent anyway, might as well attach his name to it and look good doing it. With a 12 trillion dollar debt, a 2 trillion dollar deficit and countless examples of waste, fraud and corruption what other solution is there? STOP SPENDING! It is the only damn solution and it is infuriating to see so many people utterly hoodwinked by this fraud, a fraud that has been exposed on this website NUMEROUS times.
How many pro-Brown supporters will have the guts to admit that instead of voting in change, they just voted in another Republican?
He also plans on meeting with Gov. Deval Patrick on Thursday, and said he will urge the governor to speed up the release of federal stimulus dollars.Predictably the states have been somewhat slow at spending the stimulus money, but we have been absolutely swarmed with evidence that the money has been badly mismanaged. In fact, it got so bad that the liberal Boston Globe ran a piece highlighting some of the disasters. Trust me, if the Globe went so far as to bash the product of Obama's first legislative win, then you better believe there is something wrong with it.
