Deval Patrick

To be honest, I'm not sure if there's anything he could do in office that would get your props...aside from resign.

From all of your comments it's looking like this is just a big pile of sour grapes.

Yes! He would get mad props from me if he did the right thing and resigned. That's one of the best suggestions you've had.

I will go on record right now as stating that Deval Patrick is doing a good job and is getting off on the right foot if he does the following:

Return the National Guard Troops to the border that he has removed.

Return the six State Troopers that he removed from an Illegal Immigration Task Force

Rescind the plan of Drivers License privileges, In-state tuition and affirmative policy actions to Illegal Immigrants.

Fire or privately fund his wifes assistant.

Rescind his plan to limit employers' access to the criminal records of potential employees.

My opinion is....I think the guy needs a car......maybe not the used car from the former Governor but also not a $47,000.00 Caddy at a cost of $850.00 a month! I think a Crown Vic would have been good enough! Curtains for the office....sure if he needs them get them but damn....$12,000.00???? He could have done better there for sure! Furniture? I heard the old furniture left with the former Governor so Deval needs furniture.......the guy is gonna spend alot of time in his office so quality furniture is in order. <Not like this!

Isn't there a budget for the Governors spending for things like this? There should be a system in place for an incoming Governor where he has a budget alloting for certain needs of the job....maybe that might help!

If he is screaming to cut back everywhere and save money where we can he definitely is not sending the right message through his actions.

And an assistant for his wife? Hmmmmm......no!

Don't mean a thing if you ain't got the bling.
