Whenever the going gets tough, a nervous “Captain Queeg” like quality infects Mitt Romney’s so called leadership. Faced with an accident that injured three students due to an unplowed sidewalk, Mitt fired the Secretary of Conservation and Recreation, Katherine Abbott. Yesterday the Herald discovered that the Governor shook down DCR for 45Gs to pay for a New England Patriots rally. Now the Globe has found out that Katherine Abbott allegedly refused to hire one of Mitt’s many defeated state legislature candidates, one Mary Connaughton. Did she incur Romney’s redoubtable wrath? Who knows? We do know that Pam DiBona, DCR’s chief of staff has been fired as of yesterday.
Can you hear the rattle of the two steel ball-bearings in Decaf’s sweaty shaky palm?
Of course the other hilarious aspect to this capering grotesque, is the notion that Abbott allegedly incurred The Viceregal displeasure by being on a retreat after the latest blizzard. Hell, all Katherine did was follow the dilettantish example set by her boss-whats the problem? Apparently, under the Romney-rules fleeing the state on the slightest pretext is an exclusive gubernatorial right.
And another thing, you can bet the next time the wreckage of “Team Reform 2004” comes around with a job application the appointed pay-triots in the bureaucracy will sit up and take notice! Such is the example set by our chilly puritanical reform minded so called Governor. Wasn’t he elected to put a stop to nonsense like this? Look at the lousy example Romney sets, firing cabinet members whose funds he has pilfered and trying to load up said department with some whiny loser. Talk about creating a culture of entitlement!
Really honestly the value of the governorship of the Commonwealth is degrading daily thanks to Mitt Romney.
He can’t do anything right his amateurism reeks like a dead mackerel. The State Legislature sets all priorities and can pretty much dispatch most of the Massachusett’s important business sans recourse ot the corner office. Meanwhile, Romney fusses, fumes, and seems to be good only for firing HIS FELLOW REPUBLICANS! Frankly the governorship has been systemically reduced to naught but a geographically serendipitous platform from which to seek the presidency.
