Bellicose Bumpkin

From Herald article:

This is basically the same story that worked so well when our “partners” first came knocking on the door in Middleboro. The selectmen, and others, thought the casino was inevitable and tried to protect the town by signing an agreement that pays us half of what the deal was worth. Patrick knows better and is not going to make the same mistake Middleboro made – namely the mistake of rushing into a deal when there is no need to do so, and disenfranchising a signficant portion of the voting public.

The funny part is that after all this time, and all that has happened, there is still a core – including a majority of the BOS – that are ignoring all that has happened since April 2007. Their behavior and persistent inaction are puzzling indeed – almost as if they haven’t picked up a newspaper since July 2007.
