Stupid is, as Stupid (Lieutenant) Governs...

How dumb is Lt. Governor Healey? Could she pass the MCAS without recourse to crib notes written by Eric Kriss?
I doubt it.
Last week Healey had this to say about the current housing crisis in Massachusetts:
"to extend tax breaks to seniors in order to keep them overhoused and isolated in the suburbs is not necessarily the right answer ... they're probably aging in homes that are too expensive or difficult for them to maintain and where the property taxes are larger than their fixed incomes. Plus, they may have three or four bedrooms and only be using one of them. There are families that need that housing"

I understand what she was trying to do, it is the old GOP two-step, ergo decline any direct influence over a particular public problem and at the same time single out some hopefully weak powerless social group as the cause of said problem. Ronald Reagan no brain he, was a master of this gambit. Hell a teachable at the Fernald School could get it down pat in about two weeks...not Healey though, the first time she tries it the whole thing ends in disaster!
She does know that retirees are renowned for voting in lockstep and in murderously high volume? This is the sort of howler associated with a rookie third party candidate for Registrar of Deed - a seasoned pro, even a seasoned failure could avoid it with ease. Not Healey though, she quite literally too dim to pound sand down a rat hole.
What does this tell you about Governor Romney’s managerial acumen that he elevated this graceless dingbat to the second position in the Commonwealth?
The woman is an amateur in an administration of hopelessly thin skinned ne’er do wells. No doubt they all talk in this depraved and ominous fashion behind closed doors, but only Kerry Healey is imbecilic enough to spout off like that in public.

Sick
Demented
Typical
