Last night on his radio show, Michael Savage referred to newly elected (and won’t be reelected) U.S. Senator Scott Brown as “Benedict Brown,” because Brown voted with Democrats to end the Republican filibuster on the so-called “jobs bill.” I will not say, “I told you so,” however. We’ll let Tammy Bruce do that for me. Here’s what Scott Brown (a.k.a. “Mr. Handsome Movie Actor Face Guy”) said about the so-called “jobs bill”:
….This Senate jobs bill is not perfect. I wish the tax cuts were deeper and broader, but I voted for it because it contains measures that will help put people back to work….
Sorry, Senator Brown, it will NOT put people back to work. And if it does, it won’t be permanent. This is a measure that will give companies TEMPORARY tax breaks for hiring unemployed people, tax cuts that will EXPIRE at the end of this year! If I’m a company, and the government says I get a break from payroll taxes if I hire new people, and that tax break expires at the end of the year, then that means the tax resumes next year. So, if I’m not hiring people now because I can’t afford it (because of everything government is doing to me), I will probably not be able to afford it next year, at which time I’ll lay off the hypothetical new people when I see that I can’t afford the reinstated payroll taxes, or I’ll see that ahead of time, and just not take advantage of it now, knowing that I won’t be able to afford the new employee(s) down the road. (Stop the world, I’m getting off!) This may get companies to hire people now—that is, people who don’t have a good ability to do long-range planning—but eventually you’ll see people losing jobs again next year. Even worse than that next year is when the capital gains taxes go back up to their pre-Bush-tax-cuts level!
I don’t think Scott Brown has a grasp on economics, or long-range planning, like most immediate-gratification-oriented politicians. Brown is a product of Massachusetts, hometown of the dreaded Amy Bishop, the one who shot and killed her brother in 1986 and got away with it, and now has murdered 3 of her/its fellow professors in Alabama. Then-Norfolk DA and now-Congressman Bill Delahunt is now suspected by pundits and observers that he played a role in getting the Braintree, Mass police to let Bishop go at the time, and not even be charged with anything.
And now, Boston talk show host Michael Graham has been threatened by then-assistant DA John Kivlan for merely noting how incompetent and corrupt Kivlan’s and Delahunt’s office was in 1986 for their handling of the Amy Bishop case. Can you believe these HACKS? I think that talk show hosts—well, Americans, EVERYBODY!!—have a right to point out how corrupt and stupid public officials are (like Scott Brown).
The reason we have this situation is because Massachusetts has been Dukakisized. Thanks to Michael Stanley Dukakis, one of the most corrupt public office holders ever in this state, the Dukakisization of Massachusetts has allowed a murderer to get away with murder and go on to murder three other people. Michael Dukakis vetoed a bill that prevented convicted first-degree murderers from enjoying the “prison furlough” program, that later resulted in the Willie Horton fiasco, the fiasco that George H.W. Bush used to help him defeat Dukakis for president in 1988. Amy Bishop is our newest “Willie Horton,” thanks to Bill Delahunt. (Am I allowed to say that?)
And Scott Brown is a product of Dukakichusetts.
