King Snitch in Massachusetts Bay

The Chairman of the Terrorism Subcommittee of the National Governor's Conference is none other than our own churlish dilettante Willard Mitt Romney.
Predictably in answer to the challenge of domestic terrorism that gung ho CEO has called for the creation of "state wide intelligence networks".
As if we don't do ENOUGH poking and prying into each other's lives as it is.
Romney doesn't even have the sense God gave a floorwalker at Sears...he is more like a seedy bottomed out police snitch...so it's inevitable that his answer to terrorism is better and better perches from which to sing like canaries about our neighbors and loved ones.
It's that old "If your only tool is a hammer, everything looks like a nail" problem.

However let's give Romney some credit...at least his staff practices what the Kolobian Viceroy preaches.
I read in today's Globe that Mitt's communication's director Eric "shit-eyes" Fehrnstrom wrote a haughty letter to WLVI's general manager decrying a "partisan" speech made by news contributor Shannon O'Brien.
Some of you may remember that O'Brien lost the gubernatorial election last year and has since been forced to sing for her supper on the public airwaves.
Apparently Eric didn't care for the precise contents of a speech "journalist" Shannon O'Brien made in Worcester and has gone tattling to Vince Manzi, the GM at WLVI.
"By not curbing her political activity" whines this loathsome arrogant toady "You give us little confidence that Ms. O'Brien's reports will be free from bias..."
Cheeky little bastard isn't he?
But he has the true snitch style down pat.
I also love his use of the imperial "us".
Boy oh boy just carry a few suburbs by a wide enough margin and these out of state courtiers start comporting themselves Austrian Archdukes don't they?
Eric has a point though, there is a thin line between journalism and partisanship...and WTKK Jay Severin and Howard Stern and a vast legion of radio talk show tyrants routinely cross it every day thumbing their nose at the public good all the while.
The FCC has decreed the Howard Stern Show a "news" program-drunken angry dwarves and all...whilst 96.9 FM talk STILL advertises Jay Severin as "live and local" despite the fact he calls the show in from his home in the Bronx.
And there are still worse excesses out there...but it suits Romney's petty Huey Long like governing persona to continually bully someone he beat last year by a wide margin.
Sick
Demented
Typical...
