Is Kerry Healey co-hosting the Howie Carr show?

E

everyday magic

Guest
Thought it was a whacko righty caller Friday on Howie Carr's show. It was Kerry Healey on RKO again. All Kerry all the time. Meanwhile the Herald exploited Deval Patrick on the front page for not voting a couple of few times. Big deal. Better not to vote than to steal votes via Diebold.
 
Maybe Deval should go on the Air America local weekday afternoon show--oh that's right, they don't have one.
Am sure HC would like to have Deval on but Deval doesn't want to appear, though even he might do a last minute appeal to voters on every show possible, including Howie's. He has appeared on Sullivan/WBZ,
Eagan and Braude/WTKK, etc.

The big news now is gonna be the resignation of Mark Foley (R-FL) over those emails and IMs. Faced with a similar situation, Gerry Studds not only didn't resign but got re-elected five times. In the state where you can get re-elected even if you're found in bed with a dead girl or a live boy, as long as you're a Dem.

_-
vote Raccoon Party this Nov.--your third party candidate...because two parties a week are never enough!

>>steal votes via Diebold.

Dems always win in this state. Maybe the voting machines are rigged!
 
There seems to be a difference in the Studds / Foley cases. It wasn't the internet and the page was of age. It is the Clinton dilemma, abuse of position and power, much like a priest having such chatter with a consenting woman of 17 or any age.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerry_Studds

The problem for Foley is that he didn't know what age he was sending those instant messages to. He was supposed to protect people from internet predators. He also was said to have played some voting games. His opponent's name didn't show up on the ballot in 16 districts. 15 will get you 20. 16 (districts) will get you elected. 16 will also force you to resign.

Guess you hate democracy--Studds' constituents knew what he'd done and decided it wasn't that important--Foley didn't have the guts to face his.

Also funny that you only mention the Democrat that got pinched in the 80's and not Daniel Crane (R-Ill, same crime).

What happens if they privatize your job, sir? Still love the GOP?
 
Sexual harrassment is OK! Bill Clinton said so!

I don't love either party, it's a matter of hating one less than the other, or at least liking what they are supposed to stand for, more. I work for postal service which I hope will never get privatized. Service would really suffer.
As for gov race, if only a third party candidate might stand a chance of winning, one whom I'd agree with--
not like spoiler Mihos...who will get a nice post in the Patrick administration.

One party government: wrong whether it's GOP or Dem dominated. One party in control of everything?
(and I mean REAL control, not just a slightly plurality: 95 per cent control!!)
Hacks, cronies, late nite legislative sessions, backroom deals, spending, "power corrupts and absolute power
corrupts absolutely". Let Patrick take office and bankrupt the state and the electorate will plead for
a Republican gov. to fix it. Weld repaired the mess Pee Wee left behind.
 
If Deval had any ba**s, he'd go on the show, too, and Kerry Healey could have a co-host.

Deval's too busy trying to get murderers released from prison.

"TOGETHER WE CAN"! Get all the cons out of prison, that is.
 
You are complaining because Deval Patrick is NOT an incompetent lawyer but a VERY competent lawyer.
Guess the GOP just loves incompetence...just look who is occupying the White House. Jeeze, that guy CAN'T even pronounce peninsula if you heard this morning's press conference.

As they say be careful what you pray for. You prayed for it in Washington and we have an international disaster on our hands.

Did Christian Herter, John Volpe, Frank Sargent, William Weld, Paul Celluci and Mitt Romney change party affiliations when I wasn't looking?

Note that the only way Muffy Dilletante thinks she can be elected is to use one of the oldest and most despicable smears imaginable. I know it just galls people like you to think that murderers are entitled to their day in court, just like anyone else, and that they're entitled to counsel who will work on their behalf...rights that have existed since this country was founded. Madison, Jefferson et al. are probably doing handstands in their graves, knowing that the rights they fought for so long and hard, for which many thousands have died over two-plus centuries, are now being used by one candidate to smear another.

I hope it backfires on her so badly that she'll never run for office again.
 
You are right, DTABOH, suddenly the Republican crowd think it is in vogue to strip away Constitutionally rights - rights that many of us aren't even aware of - even though we've read the U.S.Constitution. What are our rights when George W. Bush and Kerry Healey can make those rights an alleged "crime", even if that is in merely the court of public opinion?
 
Deval Patrick has appeared on WRKO with at least two hosts that I've heard (Scotto, Depetro) -- maybe more.

Eagan and Braude at WTKK have offered to let either candidate (Patrick or Healey) host their show on Fridays should they win the Governorship.

The Laguer case is completely relevant to the election. For one thing, the Governor is in a position to pardon state criminals. If Deval Patrick has lobbied for the release of a convicted rapist, donated money on his behalf and unsurprisingly played the race card, most voters will have significant doubts as to what other criminals he will put back on the street (just like Dukakis did). That's not to say that Healey won't pardon anyone, but she has taken a much tougher stance on crime, especially illegals and drunk drivers.

If you don't agree that the Laguer case is relevant, then let the two candidates debate the real issues. If you take a look at www.devalpatrick.com, you see how out of touch he really is. Look at his proposals for fixing Massachusetts. They are all socialist programs that will further alienate Massachusetts from the rest of the country, continue to drive businesses away and ultimately raise taxes. There is a laundry list of policies he wants to implement in his first year in office, all of which lead to higher taxes. There would be no other way to pay for them. Yet you don't hear any of this on the radio.

What rights have you lost, exactly?

That's not the point at all. History adequately demonstrates that once the government is able to violate anyone's rights (just take a look at the Patriot Act), it's only a matter of time before they violate YOUR rights.

The saddest part of the uproar over the events of 9/11/2001 was to hear otherwise intelligent and sane people agreeing with the wholesale violations of our constitutional rights which were enshrined (maybe a better term is "entombed") in the Patriot Act. It eviscerates the Fifth, Sixth and Eighth Amendments. We don't have to wait for the terrorists to attack us again. We're doing just fine undermining our own heritage and history, by letting politicians skewer the Constitution without so much as a whimper.

FDR, who presided over the greatest expansion of governmental power in our history, got one thing right: "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself." Problem is, fear is what's driving this country now, and the politicians from W on down are taking full advantage, by pandering to our collective fear of another terrorist attack.
 
btw I'd expect Howie's show today to focus on a news event I just heard reported by Ch 4. A certain former Boston City Councillor was arrested in a sting operation; thought he was emailing a 15 yr old. Foley-gate hits the Hub.
 
You stole my line :)
FDR did say "The only thing we have to fear - is fear itself."
GW has turned that around and is selling "fear itself" as bumper sticker mentality.

Deval Patrick out of touch? GMAFB! I just read the Healey platform, and here's some of what she proposes:

--Raise mandatory schooling age to 18 (i.e., we need more teachers and more classrooms...who pays for that?)
--Photo ID mandatory for voting (who pays for that?)
--Raise teaching standards, thus earning higher pay (who pays teacher salaries?)
--Increase academic testing in schools (who pays for that?)
--Mandate financial literacy in schools (i.e., more teachers and more classroooms...who pays for that?)
--Boost English As A Second Language programs (there we go again...more teachers and more classrooms)
--Let cities and towns purchase employee insurance through the state (insurance premiums are free now?)
--Lifetime parole for Level-2 sex offenders (either we hire more parole officers, or dump that workload on already overburdened parole officers)
--Loan forgiveness for students entering certain professions (i.e., we eat that loan...who pays for that?)
--Automate all state operations and mandate accpetance of credit cards at state offices (credit card use is charged to the seller, meaning the taxpayers)
--Appoint an executive officer to coordinate business recruitment (another state salary)
--Require mandatory post-release supervision for convicts (more salaries)
--Create a "cell phone parking lot" at Logan (who pays for Massport again?)
--Hire cops to patrol schools
--Create a GPS tracking system to aid victims of domestic abuse
--Name certain schools as "Commonwealth Academies," eligible for additional state funding

Every single one of those proposals would raise our taxes, so let's not pick on Deval. He's just proposing tax increases on different things.
 
You will today, I'm sure. (CBS 4 adds: "The 60-year-old Scondras pleaded not guilty Tuesday to several charges including enticement of a child under the age of 16 and assault and battery on a police officer. He's being held on $1500 cash bail and is due back in court in November.")

Scondras giving gays a bad name...
 
Deval is afraid to answer tough questions or give specifics.... Thats why he's a-scared to appear somewhere where white liberals aren't fawning over him like he's a hot chick.
 
Why would Deval Patrick want to go on a station to which so few people listen? WKKK -AM 680 blazes crosses over so few homes these days but one hear's they bleach their white sheets daily.
