The Story of Corruption Within the MA GOP Continues to Grow Regarding the DE- certification of the Ron Paul/Liberty Slate Delegates

The Mass GOP Corruption scandal, regarding the delegate selection process to the GOP convention in Tampa,  has legs and is growing.

If the State Committee is smart, they’ll make this whole matter go away by reconsidering their vote, as this has the potential to hurt Mitt Romney.

The last thing Romney wants, I’m sure. is to be questioned by the national media about his role and influence, when the State Committee voted to confirm “the just cause” argument made by the MA House GOP leader, Brad Jones, seen in the photo above, on behalf of Mitt Romney, against the liberty slate of delegate candidates.

David Trumbell, a member of the Cambridge, MA Republican City Committee from 1992 -2002 and a political warrior and thinker, with impeccable credentials as local chairman for the Republican Party in Boston and Cambridge, MA, left a comment at the Jazz Patriot following a post that received a lot of hits this week: Corruption In MA GOP Rules the Day Again

GOP shenanigans regarding seating of elected delegates is nothing new. In 2000 the Republican National Convention Credentials Committee in Philadephia passed the following resolution: “Whereas, the Republican National Convention’s Committee on Credentials has had to repeatedly answer contests to delegates from Massachusetts because of their peculiar manner of selection that seems to promote cronyism and defeat democratic elections, the Committee on Credentials urges the Massachusetts State Committee to reconsider Rule 4.7 which allows the winning Presidential Candidate’s State Committee to certify delegates and alternates pledged to it’s candidates.

Dave Kopacz, President of the Massachusetts Republican Assembly, MARA, also commented at the MARA page on Facebook, about this tendency of the MA GOP to disregard the results of delegate elections by saying:

I was a delegate in 2008 where a full one third of the duly elected delegates were arbitrarily challenged and harassed too. Due to our persistence and moral high-ground, we were ultimately seated and allowed to represent those Republican voters we were elected to represent. Now these ignorant buffoons (/bəˈfo͞on/ Noun:A ridiculous but amusing person; a clown.) are right back to their old tricks. Just like any soviet style system does, Party elitists wiped out democratically elected people and appointed delegate seats in the form of ESTABLISHMENT ENTITLEMENTS.

Feel free to contact your State Committee person and ask them to clarify what they mean by "Big Tent" and "Unity" because the Republican Party is starting  to take on the image of East Germany. http://www.massgop.com/about/state-committee/

Speaking of buffoons, State Committee member Brock Cordeiro, shown above, who unfortunately represents my district on the MA South Coast, was heard mumbling under his breath recently, that the vote taken this week by his fellow state committee members was a waste of time. My source at the meeting, got the impression that Brock knew something, the rest of us didn't.

Far be it from me, to delve into the mind of a distinguished and powerful force within the MA GOP as Brock Cordeiro, and determine why he felt the vote would be a waste of time, but I think he was trying to convey that the whole thing was in the bag from the git-go.

BTW I know Mr Cordeiro is a distinguished and powerful presence in the MA GOP because he told me so at RMG many times during the 2010 congressional primary race on the blogs, when I was fighting for a true conservative, Earl Sholley, and he was doing every thing in his power to see that this good man did not win the election for the MA 4th Congressional District seat. All that happened is what usually happens when RINOs like Cordeiro get their way in the primaries...WE LOSE IN THE GENERAL ELECTION!

I also recently came across a written comment Cordeiro’ made, which I now have in case he tries to deny he made it, as his prolific blogging regarding the Massachusetts GOP, leaves a huge paper trail which betrays narcissistic and insecure tendencies, (another characteristic of a buffoon),  in which he stated authoritatively:


“The vote at the State Committee meeting was to require the Mass GOP to seek a ruling from the RNC on the legitimacy of counting or not counting. "What you weren't told", Cordeiro, recently wrote,  was the ruling was already given in advance of the meeting”, which confirms David Trumbulls depiction of the delegate selection process within the MA GOP to tend towards, "shenanigans".

There you have it, one of the top RINOs on the GOP State Committee, Brock Cordeiro, has confirmed it. The beans have been spilled and the truth is out there in the open, as if we hadn't already figured out that Romney was never going to allow this embarrassing defeat to stand. Thanks to Cordeiro, we now know, for sure, the meeting, that was framed as a legimate and honest opportunity to reconsider the certification of the Liberty slate delegates, was  nothing but a staged event,  which I assume was designed to allow Mitt Romney to exercise  control over the delegates and avoid a floor fight at the convention.. 

It also confirms the complicit involvement of other State Committee members with it as well.  (Read the comment I received after my first account was published, from my friend   Iron Mike of the great Rabid Republican Blog posted below and seen in the photo on the left, that provides even more scandalizing details of the proceedings that took place at other caucuses in the state, proving the whole thing was a ridiculous charade.


 I was also informed that the South Coast's version of "The Mouth From The South" ("The Brock") has publicly boasted about participating in the writing of the rules himself, probably after a couple of drinks. which would prohibit the use of provisional ballots. 


Provisional Ballots, I assume, are the ballots that were passed out to anyone who wasn't on Mitt Romney's ordained slate of delegate candidates, that he ordered the Chairman of the MA GOP, "Bribin Bob Maginn",  seen in the photo below, to use at the MA Caucuses..

Yet the majority of these State Committee Members, atleast the ones that were in the bag for Romney,   showed up to the meeting, as though everything were hunky dory, according to Cordeiro, and proceeded to rip the political  hearts out of these great young people,  most of whom were being introduced to the inner workings of Republican Party politics for the first time, and hopefully not the last, but I can't blame them if it is..

Although I don't know David Trumbull, personally, my perception of his web page that oozes loyalty to the Grande Old Party, is that he is too classy and nice of a fellow, to refer to this rotten and disgusting scheme, approved by Mitt Romney, Jones, Maginn,  and smaller fish like Cordeiro, as Corruption {my word choice}, hence the term, shenanigans.

Definition of Corruption from the Random House College Dictionary: Perversion of Integrity; Corrupt or dishonest proceedings; bribery. 

In conclusion, this story as noted in the Boston Herald in an article entitled “Mass GOP deals dirty” and on  the “Reality Check” segment on Fox 19 news outof Cincinnati this week, is starting to catch on with the main stream media both locally and nationally.

So I’m asking State Committee members who have vehemently and deceptively fought the certification of the duly elected delegate candidates with unmitigated BS up until now, as though the rules they wrote for delegate selection are part of the US Constitution, to reconsider their position, even though Iron Mike in his commentary below, considers it a waste of time, and I suppose he's right, depending on who your State Committee Representative is. After all they are elected officials. 

 The next thing you'll probably hear coming out of the mouths of some of these  buffoons on the State Committee, is that they are strict constitutionalists, in which you should reply with a probing question: You mean like Chief Justice John Roberts, who single handedly rewrote the constitution this week over the ObamaCare Tax  fraud case?.

And I pray that Mitt Romney will repeal the newly revealed ObamaCare Tax, as he has promised, as well as reinstate the Bush Tax Cuts when they expire this January. BTW, that rumbling sound you just heard, when I brought up the word tax, was the sound of Tea Parties, rising from the dead, though we, who exist at the grass roots level of Conservative politics in Massachusetts,  all know they never really died.

Governor Romney, may not get that opportunity, however, if this MA GOP corruption scandal blows up in his face at the convention. Remember in politics, perception is always reality, and this vicious and equally corrupt antii-Romney mainstream media, will be more than willing to question him about his role in influencing the State Committee to DE-certify these kids. 

Time is running out and the media is starting to close in on this story. Write your State Committee members NOW by clicking on the link, and plead with them to reconsider this vote again before it’s too late, and if your State Committee person turns out to be a buffoon like mine and Iron Mike's is, let him have it with the best  verbal assault you can muster. If he is as vain and as filled with self importance, as Brock Cordeiro is, however, it won’t do you any good, but you’ll feel a lot better afterwards, I assure you..

MA GOP Delegate Corruption Scandal Begins Attracting National Attention

The following video shows the “Reality Check” segment on the Fox 19 news out of Cincinnati last night, which featured Worcester’s own Carol Claros, explaining how she was stripped of her delegate slot.

While the stench of the MA GOP Corruption and Delegate De-certification Scandal, discussed very accurately in the above video, has been making noise in the local blogosphere and through the Conservative Grapvine,  it is apparent that the abhorrent odor is beginning to spread and now the mainstream media is  beginning to pick up the stench as well. 

Yesterday, Michael Graham, host of an afternoon drive time talk show on 96.9 WTKK, wrote an Op-Ed in the Boston Herald entitled Mass GOP deals dirty,  which focused on a young, enthusiastic,  Ron Paul supporter, Evan Kenney of Wakefield, MA,  who had his young,  robust political heart, savagely ripped out by the old guard, conservative hating,  Romney operatives, deeply entrenched and strategically placed inside the MA GOP leadership circle.

Although Kenney,  gave GOP former, gubernatorial candidates, Charlie Baker and Kerry Healey a nasty whooping at the MA State Caucuses in April, and succeeded in winning a delegation position, at least temporarily, until the Romney camp caught wind of the very legal, and well deserved coups that caught the MA GOP leadership with it's proverbial pants down, he had no delusions about who the GOP nominee would be i.e. Mitt Romney, who won 72 percent of the primary vote in Massachusetts.

But because of some mischievous maneuvering in a MA GOP Allocation committee meeting, it is Baker and Healey, who tonight are pulling their luggage out of the closet,  and beginning to pack. Kenney is being deprived of an opportunity to reap the benefits of his hard work and well deserved victory at the caucuses, by  experiencing the excitement of a Presidential Convention first hand with other members of the Republican Party, a political party that needs Kenney and his youthful, idealistic friends,  if the Mass GOP is ever going to attract more than a mere 11% percent of registered voters in the State

Why? Graham asks rhetorically in his piece. “Because the state GOP cheated.

When Romney’s preferred delegates lost, the campaign asked the state party to dump the winners. One problem---- the winners actually won

So the state GOP changed the rules, after the voting, adding new paperwork and artificial deadlines. They even pulled an “Al Gore” and refused to count provisional ballots ----a direct violation of the party’s rules.

As a result, Kenney and 16 other delegates/alternates, who ran ---and won---as Ron Paul libertarians, had their seats stolen from them.

Cheating, breaking their own rules, screwing over Republicans ---isn’t that what Democrats are for, asked Graham?

And Graham is right. We usually associate these type of tactics with old time Democrat hard ball political maneuvering that took place in legendary smoke filled rooms of yesteryear, but today we’re talking about a Republican Party Corruption Scandal in the State of Massachusetts that takes a back seat to nobody. And what is really interesting is apparently this isn’t the first time the MA GOP has tried to pull a low life, underhanded stunt like this, either.

In fact, according to Dave Kopacz, President of the Massachusetts Republican Assembly (MARA), the Republican National Convention's Committee on Credentials passed the following resolution in Philadelphia in 2000 which stated:

Whereas the Republican National Convention’s Committee on Credentials has had to repeatedly answer contests to delegates from Massachusetts because of their peculiar manner of selection that seems to promote cronyism and defeat democratic elections, the Committee on Credentials urges the Massachusetts State Committee to reconsider Rule 4.7, which allows the winning Presidential Candidate’s State Committee to certify delegates and alternate delegates pledged to its candidate.

Kopacz, who as President of MARA the organization that Ronald Reagan once referred to as “the Republican wing of the Republican party”, has been at the forefront of the grass roots conservative movement, that took control of nearly 25% of the State Committee seats this year, in what was essentially an unprecedented “revolution” in Bay State GOP politics, sent out a clarion call to arms today in a message to Mass Conservatives

It’s time to turn up the kitchen! An overwhelming majority of Massachusetts conservatives (R’s and U’s) have come to see the true parasitic nature of a few GOP elitists. National attention to this issue is now spreading quickly. There will be some BIG BIG news coming out next week, but for now, please voice your opinion at RMG 's poll.(The Red Mass Group Blog in an article entitled Mass GOP delegate woes go national) . 

The poll at Red Mass Group poses the question:

Should the Mass GOP Allocation Committee have confirmed Brad Jones "Just Cause" argument on behalf of Mitt Romney, against the liberty slate?.

So you   would vote NO if you feel the Committee should have accepted the Provisional Ballots and the Delegates who won their elections at the Caucus regardless of whether they followed all the absurd rules that  were designed to disqualify them as candidates.

Sean Bielat Disenfranchising Consituents, Claims Childs Won't Debate

Dr. David Steinhof is a dentist in Fall River, MA, and has worked his whole life in the private sector.  He is the conservative choice in this year's GOP primary for the MA 4^th Congressional District.  For more information or media availability, go to www.davidsteinhof.com or contact Campaign Director Scott Anderson.

______________________________________________________________________________

Press Release from the Campaign of Dr David Steinhof, Candidate for Congress from the MA 4^th Congressional District
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FALL RIVER… On Friday, GOP contender for US Congress in the 4th Massachusetts district, Dr. David Steinhof, published an open letter, asking why his opponent, Sean Bielat of New York, won’t agree to debates.

In an article published in the Attleboro-Seekonk Patch, the Bielat campaign responded to the question by suggesting it was not their campaign, but rather Elizabeth Childs who was preventing debates from happening between David Steinhof and his two opponents for the GOP nomination. (For more information, go to GOP Congressional Candidates Says Rival Won't Debate  

"We have received several debate invitations over this month that were initiated by the Childs campaign, but only included our campaign and hers, but we have always insisted that all three Republican candidates who made the ballot should be invited to participate in all debates," [Communications director Sarah] Rumpf wrote in an email to Patch.

Who on Beth Childs' team has demanded to exclude David Steinhof as a prerequisite to debate? It’s time to name names. Sarah Rumph, a high-priced hired gun from Florida, has some explaining to do. Accusing the Childs campaign (and, earlier in this same article, we at the Steinhof campaign) of underhanded dealings casts a pall over the whole Republican Party. We believe she owes it to the press, the Childs campaign so indicted, and to the voters of the 4th District to defend her comments.

Additionally, Ms. Rumph indicts various Republican Town Committees and other civic organizations, who have expressed their interest in a three-way debate, for kowtowing to demands that have allegedly been made by the Childs campaign.

"Puttin On The Ritz" for Gay Pride Reception at the White House

Last week, President Obama hosted the White House's first ever gay pride reception. According to an article entitled What Happens When You Let Gay Philly Activists Into the White House: They pose for pics giving Ronald Reagan's portrait the finger at the Philly Post,

 they danced to the sounds of a Marine Corps band; they dined on crab cakes and canapés; and some of them took advantage of photo opportunities to give a portrait of the late great President, Ronald Reagan,  the middle finger as seen in the photo below

I struggled whether I should show these photos but I think people should know the truth about some of the folks that are being pandered to at the White House by the Obama administration.

Here we have a spectacle of overt class-less behavior, taking place under the portraits of a President, Ronald Reagan, who respected the office of the presidency so much, he wouldn't even take his coat and tie off, while inside the oval office.

Also, the truth is, both he and Nancy Reagan had many gay acquaintances, after working many years in the movie industry, although you'll never hear any member of the liberal news media mention that little known tidbit of information, as it doesn't fit the template. Conservatives are suppose to be the rascist bigots, and homophobes, and Reagan would be at the top of the list, unfortunatelyin the mind of a degenerate, like Zoe Strauss, at the center of the bird flipping controversy.  

And George W Bush, whose portrait, was also being mocked and disrespected during the gay pride photo shoot,  which I assume was not under White House supervision, was responsible for sending large sums of financial and medical assistance to Africa for the fight against aids, another fact you'll never hear mentioned by the corrupt mainstream media. In fact, the stature of George W Bush among the people in many African countries is that of a folk hero and legend, due to his dogged determination and great success in substantially reducing the threat of Aids in Africa..  


President Obama, on the other hand, for all his popularity with African Americans in this country, won't so much as even contribute a dime to help his own brother, who is living in a hut in Kenya, in abject poverty and squalor.


Mathew, “Matty", Segal, who opted for the sarcastic, “thumbs up,” in front of the portrait of  George W Bush,  over the more vulgar one demonstrated by his Reagan-loathing peers, described the reception as “fantastic,” and notes that the White House staff seemed “giddy”. 

Inviting radical, gay activists to the White House and allowing them to roam the corridors freely, doesn’t seem any different to me,  than inviting the Charles Manson family for a reunion of the brutal Sharon Tate murders, which some might consider to be an absurd statement, but not really.

I'm not trying to infer, for one second, that gay activists, are in anyway guilty of the type of criminal behavior that Charles Manson was, but I do find some similarities in the way they might act in public, if God forbid, Charles Manson, were ever to be paroled.   

  When you look at the dead eyes of Zoe Strauss on the right, delivering her doubled barreled bird flipping combined with a murderous facial expression, or in the photo below, where she is seen kissing her partner beneath the Reagan portrait, it's  hard for me to see a  difference between a group of gay militants from Philadelphia attending a White House reception and Charles Manson and his girls, exchanging small talk with the President of the United States, and dining on crab cakes and canopes.

"Well how was prison Charlie?" Did you meet anyone, I know? How about another drink, Charlie? Where did the girls go? They look lovely, as usual.

Heard in  the background during this disgusting, display, of documented, dysfunctional, and outrageously bad behavior, at tax payers expense, was a musical organization of the highest decorum, the United States MarineCorps Band, the President's own, which has performed in support of dignified events, hosted, by the Commander and Chief, since 1798.



Update: On Monday June 25, 2012, the White House issued a statement in response to the finger flipping incident. 

While the White House does not control the conduct of guests at receptions, we certainly expect that all attendees conduct themselves in a respectful manner. Most all do, a spokesman for President Barack Obama, Shin Inouye, said by email on Monday.

Of course, bird flipping is not an unusual occurence at events involving President Obama, as can seen below, so it would be understandable if Zoey baby doesn't understand why everyone is making such a big deal of this.

UN RIO + 20 Conference

50,000 hard core America hating leftists and environmental demagogues, who envision controlling the world through establishing choke-holds on economic growth, that they prefer to call “smart growth” or “sustainable development”, are presently meeting in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil for the RIO + 20 United Nations Conference.

The conference marks the 20^th anniversary of the 1992 United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED, in Rio de Janeiro , and the 10th anniversary of the 2002 World Summit on sustainable Development (WSSD) in Johannesburg and is scheduled to conclude today with the signing of a watered down agreement that won't make many of the more radical attendees happy.

According to the web site for RIO + 20, the conference was suppose to focus on two themes: (a) a green economy in the context of sustainable development poverty eradication; and (b) the institutional framework for sustainable development.

In addition to the world's “greenies”, regional planners, and government bureaucrats, who have been  busy little bees trying to escort the richest countries in the world back to the 19^th century, since the first conference, there are also in attendance 100 heads of states including French President Francois Hollande; Russian Leader Vladimer Putin; and Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao.

Because US President Barack Obama, Britain's David Cameron, and German Leader, Angela Merkel are absent from the big confab, there is little hope of imposing the type of commitments from the worlds richer nations to assist in their creation of a global socialist utopia, bearing the stamp of approval of the United  Nations.    

According to Kumi Nardoo, executive director of Green peace:  The future we want has gotten a little further away today. RIO + 20 has turned into an epic failure.(Awe...) It has failed on equity (which means confiscation of private property including redistribution of income); failed on ecology; (figuring out how to save one of trillions of planets God has created, as if He needs their help); and failed on economy ( creative ways to destroy capitalism worldwide, particularly in the United States)

This is not a foundation on which to grow economies or pull people out of poverty, it's last will and testament of a destructive twentieth century development model

By twentieth century development model, I assume they're talking about the United States of America and the greatest economy the world has ever known, thanks to the creative use of natural resources God has created and generously provided for man's access; such as fossil fuels, which most of these greenies despise like Maurice Strong, the Secretary General of the UN’s 1992 Earth Summit, who is in attendance at RIO +20

Strong was quoted during his opening speech at the summit in 1992 as saying: Current lifestyles and consumption patterns of the affluent middle class – involving high meat intake, use of fossil fuels, appliances, home and work air conditioning, and suburban housing are not sustainable. And that was one of the milder quotes he has made over the years.

Maurice Strong was also quoted in the September edition of National Review magazine: What if a small group of world leaders were to conclude that the principal risk to the Earth comes from the actions of the rich countries? And if the world is to survive, those rich countries would have to sign an agreement reducing their impact on the environment. What will they do? The groups conclusion is no. The rich countries won't do it. They won't change. So, in order to save the planet , the group decides: Isn't the only hope for the planet that the industrialized civilizations collapse? Isn't it our responsibility to bring this about?

(Well, actually Mr Strong, our president, Barrack OBama, has done a pretty good job bringing about the collapse of the US economy without the help of the UN, so maybe you could see that he is presented with some type of anti-capitalist medal. I'm sure he'd appreciate it.)

Another statement that shows that one of the founders of the sustainable development movement was  concerned with a much more radical and diabolical world takeover plan than simply differentiating between a container for recycables and one for trash or the construction of bicycle and walking paths, can be seen in the following quote attributed to Maurice Strong  in 1992:

It is simply not feasible for sovereignty to be exercised unilaterally by individual nation states, however powerful. It is a principle which will yield only slowly and reluctantly to the imperatives of global environmental co-operation.

And

          Our concepts of ballot - box democracy may need to be modified to produce strong governments capable of making difficult decisions. (you mean like...dictatorships, Maurice)

The word coming from this years conference attendees, however,  is the tone is much more moderate and it is unlikely that the agreement the member nations sign today will contain any drastic restriction measures for the worlds  industrialized nations. So any attendees who were hoping the agreement might  ban the use of cars or TV's, (LOL) or contain any language in the document that would mandate direct transfers of environmenally sound technologies. is sure to return home disappointed.

The US and other rich nations have said that simply violates intellectual property laws, while poorer nations insist there is no way they can afford to pay for the advanced equipment that would, for instance, allow factories to operate in a way that pollutes less.

Much of the blame for the less militant approach being tendered this time around, than convincing the representatives of the member nations attending the conference that the annihilation of the planet is at hand, is being blamed on powerful corporate lobbying efforts.

Craig Bennet, director of policy and campaigns at Friends of the Earth, was quoted as saying in an article entitled RIO + 20: the Earth Summit diaries, Friday 22, June:

It's clear from the  mood here in RIO that many NGOs and civil society groups believe corporate influence has caused the UN to forget it's core mission. It's time for the UN and it's member states to restate that their overriding perogative is to serve the public interest, not private profit.

So take a few deep breaths, my green friends attending the conference in the bossa nova capital of the world, and put on your shades and take a walk along the beach in RIO, and take in a few solar rays, not for the purpose of  harnessing an unproven,  new energy source, but for getting a nice tan,.  

Hey…maybe you'll discover the palm tree that Antonio Carlos Jobim wrote Girl from Ipanema. under many years ago.  Anything's possible, when you're allowed to wander freely, apart from the searing gazes of  your fellow environmental regulators and green "nut job" friends.

Agenda 21 in One Easy Lesson 

Corruption In MA GOP Rules the Day Again

The MA GOP continues to find creative ways to stifle grass roots enthusiasm and to provide more reasons for the 90% of MA registered voters, who refuse to register as Republicans, to maintain their present  status.

With the GOP allocation committee’s decision to decertify 17 delegates on an absurd technicality they appeared to make up on a whim,  it is clear  that the old cronyism is still alive and well in Massachusetts politics.

However, this dastardly deed is so blatant and the stench so appalling, I don't know why anyone would want to vote Republican in Massachusetts, other than to avoid the stench coming from across the isle, which  is even more appalling, but not by much, I assure you. 

Delegate candidates that were elected by voters with provisional ballots,  including many who were long time Republicans with a proven voting record,  were denied certification following the April 28, 2012 MA Republican Caucuses,  in which Ron Paul supporters won the day by winning 17 of 27 positions for delegates to the National GOP Convention in Tampa.   

 Right now I’m so disgusted with the republican establishment  here in Massachusetts, I can  barely breathe. These people,  who pulled off this unconscionable stunt,  are not republicans. They can’t be, which is why RINO (Republican In Name Only)  is a fitting description for the old guard, and I refuse to apologize for using that term, or for posting the photo above.  

What is the problem? All candidates who sought to be designated as delegates to the convention should have been told ahead of time to either pledge to vote for Romney on the first ballot, or sign an affidavit right then and there.

Once the election is over, however, it’s over. You can’t change the rules after the election, or in this case have two sets of rules, one for the delegate candidates  you want and another for the delegate candidates you don’t want, which if I understand it correctly, is exactly what happened. You're either qualified to run before hand in any election,  or you're not. Once it's over,  it's over, even  if Yogi didn't say that.. 

This is the same type of thing that happened in Gore vs Bush in 2000,  in Florida. They didn’t like the results of the election so they went through all kinds of gyrations to obtain a different set of results,  by differentiating  between chads and hanging chads etc., in selected districts, and then even tried to convince the Florida Supreme Court to alter the rules,  in order to finally achieve the desired outcome. Fortunately the US Supreme Court intervened and put a stop to that outragious plot, preventing what would have essentially resulted in a coup d’etat.

Conservative activists across the state of Massachusetts, who have been actively feuding with entrenched GOP elitists, and achieving great gains,  following the landslide victory in the election of Republican State Committee members during the March 6^th Republican Primary this year, now face the reality that the establishment still has enough pull to get their way.

Dave Kopacz, president of the Massachusetts Republican

Assembly (MARA), said in a statement made on  Facebook yesterday:

A Small handful of Mass GOP elitists have violated numerous party rules and state laws to take dictatorial control over the states political apparatus in order to strip delegate seats from duly elected Republicans and appoint their hand picked cronies. Massachusetts Republicans need to wake up and recognize that the small group of self entitled RINOs is more than willing to destroy the Party just to gain favor and position themselves for political appointments.

If this blatant level of fraud is allowed to stand, Massachusetts Republicans will be dead in the water and forever be blocked from participation or Party reform. The GOP cut 17  duly elected delegates after coercing them with signing a flawed affidavit that proclaims to help the signer to a future action. This is illegal! Many notories couldn’t even use the form supplied by the GOP and had to submit an attached Jurat just to attempt to fulfill the intent of this unprecedented demand.

However, some good did come out of this pitiful display of establishment arrogance. We were able to smoke out additional RINOs to target for replacement and shine the bright light of day on there sickening behavior.

Republican State Committeeman for the 1^st Bristol and Plymouth District, Tim Sullivan,  was concerned with how the MA GOP will be able to increase it’s membership, or even maintain the measly 11% of registered voters presently enrolled as republicans.

Being recently elected to the Republican State Committee, part of my job is to help grow the Republican Party. I have absolutely no idea how the Republican leadership and the Allocation Committee thinks that disqualifying elected delegates, elected Republican delegates elected by Republicans in a Republican caucus makes any sense what-so-ever. 

I am proud to have voted last Tuesday in favor of having the provisional caucus ballots counted with over 30 of my SC colleagues and will continue to support the elected caucus delegates. 

So the saga continues, but I hope the rigged election of old time entrenched,  “conservative hating” RINOs”, isn’t going to set the tone for the Romney administration, if Governor Romney is indeed able to oust Barrack Obama this November, which I certainly hope he does. At the moment,  I would say the prospects for a new era of honesty and integrity in politics are  not good, if the caliber of Romney's  political honchos here in the MA GOP, is typical of the caliber of GOP operatives and political appointees that will staff a Romney administration.

Oh boy...suddenly I feel ill again.. 

The following is a video, that was made prior to the final decision to decertify the delegates selected at the MA caucuses. Most understood that the euphoria they experienced, following the well organized, well deserved, and completely legal victory,  which caught the MA GOP leadership sleeping at the wheel, would be short lived, based on public statements made by the "old guard  elites", that began leaking out on the blogs, after Governor Romney received the serious kick in the groin, that he did that fateful day in late April.

Beware of Agenda 21 and SRPEDD: Southeastern Regional Planning and Economic Development District

The education of Agenda 21 and particularly it's progress in implementation on the Massachusetts South Coast will continue on this blog not only for my readers but for me as well. There is no question that the vision this agency has runs in conjunction with the  global agenda for sustainable development and is intertwined with the newly initiated program pushing sustainable development at UMass Dartmouth and the Southeastern Council on sustainability. This group and their leaders need to be watched very carefully. Even the tone of the narrators and the background piano music sounds creepy on this video.

The Rapoza Report(May 2012)

Father’s Day… reminiscing about my own Dad

                                                                                                     

Today’s guest columnist is Linda Rapoza of Fall River, MA. Linda is President of the Mildred Fay Jefferson 4^th Congressional  District Chapter of the Massachusetts Republican Assembly


______________________________________________Fathers hold a special place in the hearts of their daughters. Of course my Dad was a very special man in my eyes. But as I grew older, I learned from others what a special guy he really was. 

You learn a lot about a man in the way he treats his own mother.  My father loved and respected his mother and learned about kindness and empathy for others from her. He and his siblings grew up dirt poor, and never having had a Christmas tree in their home as kids, he made sure that when my brother and I were growing up, we had three of them!  

He was a cop who walked a beat so he saw things he made sure my brother and I would never see.  One late night in December, while he was on a break from duty, he came running into the house and bolted up the stairs to the attic where he pulled out an old Christmas tree and a box of colored balls and trimmings and with a few words to my Mom, indicated that there was a kid on his beat whose family didn’t have a Christmas tree.  So, they would have one that year.

As a little girl growing up in the 50’s, there was a girl in my class who was considered “raggedy”. We were all poor in those days, (though we didn’t know it), but her family was especially poor. Her hand-me-down clothes never fit her right. Her patent leather shoes were worn out and the straps were broken. Her stretched and stained white anklets were always puddling around inside her shoes. Her hair always looked like it had never been brushed. None of the other little girls would go near her. (In those days, it was the “kootie” issue that kept the kids away.)

I think now about how brave she was when she would just smile and ignore the fact that she was being tormented by the boys for her unkempt appearance. I brought her home from school one day and introduced her to my Dad. When it was time for her to leave, he appeared in the yard with a paper bag and offered to drive her home. I went along for the ride.

Unbeknownst to me at the time, he’d gone into my bedroom, gotten a few of my cotton dresses, and a couple of pairs of socks and put them in a bag. When we arrived at her house (a pretty interesting place to me at the time, as it was buried behind overgrown trees and brush and the yard was filled with a variety of automobile equipment), he brought her and the bag inside. When I think about that day, I’m sure he probably gave her mother some money along with that bag, though he never said anything about her or that day ever again.

I would guess my favorite memory of my Dad was the day my first child was born (who would grow up to become a cop as well). He’d entered the hospital at about 3:00 a.m. (with the aid of his police uniform) and came upstairs to the maternity ward.

I first saw his beaming face in the darkened doorway of my room.  “I saw him!” he said of his first grandchild, and came over to me and planted a kiss on my cheek. “He looks great!”

A nurse soon came in to gently scold him for being there.  He apologized and agreed to leave. He’d accomplished what he’d set out to do, and now he was ready to go back to work.

My father didn’t like fanfare.  He was a cop.  I remember sitting in front of my television one late evening, long before the advent of recording equipment, and seeing my Dad on the news broadcast. He was holding the hand of a youngster as they were coming down the steps of the downtown police station. He was a feature story on the news! He had taken the youngster on a tour of the police station, and the two were smiling. My father was always smiling.

My Dad was my hero, my protector, my secret-keeper. He was the man who brought me around on his days off to visit his friends … like the old man with the long braid down his back who wore a Fedora and lived in a Quonset Hut. He made strange-tasting tea in a pot in his Chinese restaurant where my father brought me now and then.

And then there was the guy who ran the soda fountain at the Bettencourt Pharmacy where I could always count on getting an extra scoop of ice cream in my root beer float. Even the bums on the street were his friends, only I never knew then that they were bums because my Dad always acted like they were important. 

My father befriended everyone he came in contact with. It was his way.  He was respected by everyone because he was not only a kind man, but a good man. When he died long after he’d retired, many of his fellow officers who attended his funeral joked about how he use to apologize to those he had to arrest before he put the cuffs on them.

His ultimate sacrifice occurred when my husband walked out on me and three babies, the oldest of whom was four years old at the time. I remember my Dad singing to me the song, “Hey, come on, get happy, chase all your blues away…”. He took matters into his own hands, insisting that I move “back home” with my three babies and allow him and my mother to help me to raise them.

They had a huge 3-bedroom addition built onto their house just for us, and there we stayed for the next ten+ years where he would serve the role of a “Dad” again, this time to his three grandchildren. This would be where they would learn what a father really is and what compassion means. They would learn to laugh and love, and to build their own memories of “family” which they would then keep in their hearts until they could pass them onto their own children.

Yeah, he was pretty special, and I miss him terribly and not just on Father’s Day.

Beware: South Coast Rail Project Is Nothing Less Than UN "Agenda 21" Takeover Scheme

The hopes of one day having access to commuter rail service between the Massachusetts South Coast and Boston existed in the minds of South Coast residents like me, long before the terms “sustainable development”, “smart growth”, and “greening”  became linked with Governor Patrick’s massive reconstruction and land takeover plan known simply as “The Corridor Plan”. 

As someone who grew up in New Bedford, MA not too far from the remains of the once bustling train yards that were the lifeblood of the city when New Bedford was one of the textile capitals of the world in the 1920’s but were shut down when train service was discontinued in the 1950’, I can state unequivocally that I just wanted a stupid train to take to Boston, not a  socialist utopia conceived by a bunch of environmental wackos and the American hating United Nations,  which is really the ultimate objective of this  diabolical and extremely expensive plan for "sustainable development" on the Massachusetts South Coast. Oh yes…it calls for the use of "a stupid train", also, as almost an after thought..

The term “Sustainable Development “ according to the Agenda 21 “Bible” (seen above ) was first introduced to the world in the pages of a 1987 report (Our Common Future) produced by the United Nations world Commission on Environmental Development authored by Gro Harlem Brundtland, VP of the World  Socialist Party. That’s right. I did say “World Socialist Party”. The term was first offered as official UN policy in 1992, in a document called UN Sustainable Development  Agenda 21, issued at the UN’s Earth Summit, today referred to simply as Agenda 21.

It’s the same plan US president George H.W. Bush signed the United States on to in 1992, pledging to adopt the goals of Agenda 21. I might add that the President signed the United States on to this UN plan, without congressional approval. Are you kidding me? Jesse Helms  would have had a heart attack.

In 1995, President Bill Clinton, in compliance with Agenda 21, signed executive order #12858 to create the President’s Council on Sustainable Development in order to “harmonize” US environmental policy with UN directives as outlined in Agenda 21 (once again without congressional approval. I mean… nobody contacted me. Did anyone ask you if it would be all right to put the United States under control of the United Nations in environmental matters?)

The EO directed all agencies of the Federal Government to work with state and local community governments in a joint effort to “reinvent” government using the guidelines outlined in Agenda 21. As a result, with the assistance of groups like ICLEI, Sustainable Development is now emerging as government policy in every town, county and state in the nation.

It was during the Clinton administration that J Gary Lawrence, advisor to President Clinton's council on sustainable development was quoted as saying: "Participating in a UN advocated planning process would very likely bring out many of the conspiracy -fixated groups and individuals in our society. This segment of our society who fear "one world government" and a UN invasion of the United States through which our freedom would be stripped away would actively work to defeat any elected official who joined "the conspiracy" by undertaking A 21. So we call our process something else, such as comprehensive planning, growth management or smart growth.

President Barrack Obama, further committed the United States to Agenda 21 by signing Executive Order #13575 on June 9, 2011, establishing a White House Rural council for facilitating the federal coordination of sustainable development at the community level.

Agenda 21 is also the same plan the John Birch society has been screaming about for years, but nobody has been listening to them until recently, because well….it was “the John Birch Society”

It's also the same plan that 60 South Coast residents, including yours truly, gathered to learn about last month at a seminar entitled “Agenda 21”, “Smart Growth” and“Sustainable Development  (see photo below). 

 I’ve been trying to educate myself and anyone else that would listen to me ever since about this evil plot to deprive us of our constitutional right to own property and push us from beautiful rural areas and peaceful country side estates to the cities, “stacked and packed” along rail lines like rats.

The following link is essentially a progress report that was issued by the Southeastern Regional Planning and Economic Development District [SRPEDD] on the proposed plan for the development of Commuter Rail Service on the Massachusetts South Coast  which as I said the citizens of the Massachusetts South Coast have been waiting for, for  ions it seems.

According to the official Website of the Executive Office of Housing and Economic Development (EOHED) this report is a Retrospective Analysis of the
State Investment IN The South Coast Region And Implementation Of The Corridor Plan:  that was issued in Compliance with Executive Order 525 by Governor Deval Patrick in 2010.

With the election of Governor Deval Patrick it appeared that our prayers had been answered. We would now be able to get our "stupid train" and with the issuance of this report it appeared that we had finally progressed to a  point beyond the talk, meetings, and endless disappointments experienced with previous  administrations. Here was a  man who actually cared about the South Coast region of the state and didn't treat it like it was the arm pit of Massacushetts after all it was where his voting base was, a liberal and traditional Democrat bastion of unquestioned support. He knew it and we were being properly rewarded, even though I hadn't voted for a Democrat since Jimmy Carter. (but I'm an anomaly I assure you)

So when I finally got around to reading  this analysis of the implementation of “the Commonwealth of Massachusetts South Coast Rail Economic Development and Land Use Corridor Plan, otherwise known as “The Corridor Plan”,  I skimmed through the pages quickly expecting to see a straightforward plan concerning the development of our long awaited commuter rail service. But OMG...

This is much, much, more than a simple plan to re-establish connections between the SouthCoast cities of Fall River, New Bedford, and Taunton with Boston. This is nothing more than “Agenda 21”, the devious and intricate plot, I've been referring to in this post that was hatched at the United Nations in 1987 under the guise of “saving the planet and the environment.

You've got to be kidding me, I thought. Boy did I feel stupid and even violated.

READ THE CORRIDOR PLAN REPORT and see what I mean. This is AGENDA 21 folks and nothing less. I’m telling you this is it. The South Coast Rail Project is being used as a front to implement “Agenda 21” right in front of our eyes. Right here on the Massachusetts South Coast.


READ THE CORRIDOR PLAN REPORT that President Obama’s good buddy, governor Deval Patrick, so “generously” released that’s filled with all the “Agenda 21” terms and identifying code words we were informed about at the seminar and tell me I’m wrong.

READ THE CORRIDOR REPORT   and see why the planners of Agenda 21 were quoted as saying: Agenda 21 will require a profound reorientation of All humans, unlike anything the world has ever experienced [Agenda 21: The Earth Summit Strategy to Save Our Planet](Earth Press 1993)

And why the planners of Agenda 21 looked at ownership of private property with disdain, considering it a social injustice  since not everyone can build wealth from it. And why they had no problem in confiscating land from private citizens, which is an integral part of the Corridor Plan, ensuring that vast stretches of south coast rural property are restricted for use as PPAs (Primary Protection Areas) or PDAs(Primary Development Areas)

You see the planners of Agenda 21 believed that land cannot be treated as an ordinary asset , controlled by individuals and subject to the pressures and inefficiencies of the market, and apparently Governor Patrick and his comrades in the 5 state agencies and three regional planning agencies that have been busy little bees
setting the ground work for the full implemetation of Agenda 21 on the Massachusetts South Coast agree.


READ THE CORRIDOR PLAN REPORT and tell me I'm wrong. Tell me “the Corridor Plan” isn’t the beginning of the implementation of Agenda 21, which at it’s deepest core is really about the formation of a one world government with the United Nations in charge. 

READ THE CORRIDOR PLAN REPORT AND PRINT IT OUT IN PDF FORMAT along with my articles. Do your homework. Take the initial steps that the good people of Fall River MA did last May, which I wrote about in a very thorough and detailed account entitled: “MA South Coast Residents Learn About “Agenda 21”, “Smart Growth” andSustainable Development .

READ THE CORRIDOR PLAN REPORT and tell me I’m just another “conspiracy nut” seeing UN Black Helicopters in his dreams. BTW I haven’t seen one yet but I have heard the stories about UN “Peacekeeping” thugs raping civilians (both men and women), but I might be getting ahead of myself, We’re still in the beginning stages, and it’s not too late to stand up against these NGO’s (non government agencies and regional councils filled with environmental extremists, none of whom have any accountability what–so-ever to the voters.

AFTER READING THE CORRIDOR PLAN REPORT  you’ll see that we’re further along than you think. Read about the projects in your communities on pages 15-34 that shows where your money has already been spent and don’t think for a minute that it wasn’t directly taken from you in local taxes or that it wasn’t taken from you in state and federal taxes.

READ THE CORRIDOR PLAN REPORT and see where your money has been designated or has already been spent on plans you had  nothing to do with, never knew about, never was contacted on, solicited on, and you never voted on.

Ask yourself what most of these projects have to do with South Coast Rail and the necessary restoration to old railroad tracks and railroad bridges that are still in place since the passenger train service shut down 60 years ago. Those are projects I understand but how about explaining  why it was necessary to invest $7,340, 000 in a Massasoit Community College Energy Project in Canton, MA through an agency called DCAM; or an unspecified project on Palmers Island  for $300,000 nowhere near any train tracks; or $2,198,805 for a Redevelopment Infrastructure Project  for United Front Homes in New Bedford, nowhere near the proposed train station of railroad tracks.  

This is just a small sample from about 150 projects listed on 15 pages in a Report under the South Coast Rail Logo. I’m sure most of these if not all, are excellent projects that were long overdue, but why were they funded under the umbrella of South Coast Rail. Doesn’t that cause you to smell a rat. I’m starting to wonder if this is where Obama’s so called stimulus dollars went to not just here but for projects like these all over the country. I mean we know the stimulus bill didn’t do anything towards creating job growth in the private sector, which is what was needed to rescue the economy from the Obama recession.

The report is long and difficult to read on a computer screen , or your smart phone, but if you do nothing else read the letter addressed to South Coast Residents that the Governor inserted at the beginning of the report and tell me this isn’t “Agenda 21”

Tell me he’s not talking about “Agenda 21” after the opening paragraph of his letter where he says:

It is not enough just to reestablish transit connections between the South Coast cities of Fall River, New Bedford, and Taunton with Boston.” [ Why not? I just want a stupid train not some “godless”, “socialist”  “utopia” [A21]

Or tell me he's not talking about Agenda 21 when he says:

We also intend this project to expand environmental protection [A21], curb sprawl [A21], and cut greenhouse gas emissions by reducing the need for families and workers to drive everywhere. [A21]

Or tell me he's not talking about Agenda 21 when he says:

for the first time, we have seamlessly integrated planning for transportation investments with economic and land use development on a regional scale. [A21] 

And tell me he's not talking about Agenda 21 when he says:  

By clustering jobs and homes close to the stations through transit-oriented develop­ment and “greening” the stations by encouraging renewable energy on site, new neighborhoods will be created.: [A21]

And finally, Tell me he's not talking about Agenda 21 when he says:

The Plan also identifies priorities for land protection, which will preserve the farms, fields, and forests in every city and town. Protecting working farms, cranberry bogs, habitat, rivers and wetlands is not only important for ecological reasons, but for economic reasons. This rich landscape is central to the South Coast’s quality of life and long-term competitive advantage in the economy.

After reading this , all I could think of were the closing  remarks made by one of the  presenters at the Fall river Seminar on Agenda 21 and I quote: 

THIS  IS NOT ABOUT CONSERVATION",  which in fact this longtime professional conservation manager for the town of Ware, MA, David Kopacz,  reiterated several times during the evening, stressing his love and passion for conservation and his life long habit of going out of his way to save endangered species, which was easy for me to believe after observing his "ponytailed caricature" for three hours.

I wrote a paper on a 5 legged salamander", he said with a straight face, "and Environmental Studies and Conservation was my major in college and my lifelong work as a  Conservation  professional

THIS IS ABOUT LAND ACQUISITION"!  and continuing he stated....

I BELIEVE THE UNITED STATES IS A GREAT NATION,  NOT BECAUSE OF OUR MILITARY MIGHT, BUT BECAUSE OF THE FOUNDING PRINCIPLES OF LIFE, LIBERTY AND THE RIGHT TO OWN PROPERTY.

In closing, I would just like to add: FORGET ABOUT SOUTH COAST RAIL AND AGENDA 21. Nothing good can come from implementing a United Nations Plan. It's not too late to take a stand against it, but the vast majority of our friends and neighbors have been brainwashed and indoctrinated by the mainstream media and in our liberal schools and colleges into "thinking green", so the challenge is great.

One thing, however,  we do have going for us on the Massachusetts South Coast is that this area is  largely despised or non existent in the minds of anyone who lives above 128 (pardon the slight exaggeration but  you have to admit I'm close) . The political power brokers in the State struggling to find money for their endless entitlement programs, like welfare for illegal immigrants must be fit to be tied at the sheer cost of South Coast Rail. So there is hope.

Even if Charlie Baker had been elected, the whole program would have been cut off at the knees on his first day in office, so hang in their South Coast residents, but stay awake and BEWARE! Governor Patrick and the proponents of South Coast Rail are not your friends. They have something much more sinister in mind, whether they realize it or not.


What we should be focusing on is getting the US out of the United Nations and the United Nations out of the US
