An initial reaction to the compromise: are you kidding me?

February 6, 2009 By fieldscornerguy

So it sounds like there's a compromise stimulus bill.  And the Republicans, with the full cooperation of centrist Democrats and praise from Harry Reid, have stripped billions from it. What have they cut, you ask?  Perhaps some … [Read more...]

Anything to do for Rand Wilson in the primary?

September 10, 2006 By fieldscornerguy

So I support Rand Wilson's run for state auditor, and I'm wondering if there's a way to support him in the primary.  I know that his run is meant to support the development of a Working Families Party, but I also know that one doesn't … [Read more...]

July 5, 2006 By fieldscornerguy

(Originally posted at my personal blog.)So I'm guessing that most of us here are critical of our immigrant-bashing, public-health-thwarting, married-to-a-corporate-welfare-king Lieutenant Governor.  And hopefully, we appreciate the … [Read more...]

How much time have you spent in #Cambridge, Massachusetts? If I had not commented on the Sayed Faisal case, would you have done it? Be honest, @rasheednwalters. #mapoli

Rasheed N. Walters @rasheednwalters

In the People’s Republic of #CambridgeMA politicians, comrade citizens, and far left activists expect a officer to not defend themselves against a man charging at them with a Kukri Knife which is akin to a machete. These people are insane! They all wanted that officer to die!

I will say this for the @JimLyonsMA crowd - They are quick to weigh in on the events that others first highlight, without adding insight or offering any solutions. Isn’t that right, @rasheednwalters? 😉

Gun violence is rampant in our community! Transparency is a beginning. Change won’t happen when an injustice is normalized for any reason. Mishandling a firearm is violent- it can discharge fatally. 12 years defending that a loaded firearm is dangerous is too long #mapoli

Ayanna Pressley @AyannaPressley

Words are not enough. Again & again, my heart is broken.

We must root out gun violence in all forms, everywhere & end this vicious & devastating cycle.
