STAY OUT OF MASSACHUSETTS

A bunch of movie stars out there in “La-La Land” are very interested in whom we voters of Massachusetts select to represent us in the United States Senate.

They are so excited about our race they are even sending big checks to the candidates to help them with the cost of their campaign to represent us in Washington.

Why even venture capitalists, corporate CEOs and extremists of all kinds from other states have their “undies–in-a-wad” over who represents MA in the national capital.

We got a momentary break from all this attention thanks to Missouri Congressman Akin who decided, quite publicly, to display to his constituents just how little he knows about women and women’s issues by offering up a completely unproven philosophy about rape.

The Congressman drew attention away from Scott Brown and Elizabeth Warren, at least for a short time. For a couple of days the people paid no attention to Scott driving around in his old truck. Nor did they pay any attention to Elizabeth showing how close she could get to President Obama in the Rose Garden.

Now all those people who want to help us select a United States Senator are momentarily distracted by the need to help the people in Missouri select their Senator.

I get a little angry about all this meddling by outsiders.

After all, they don’t have a good track record in picking Senators in their own states. Just take a look at some of the “Bozos” currently serving in the hallowed halls of the United States Senate and you will fully understand my frustration.

Not one of these outsiders really cares whether the Senator we select in Massachusetts will truly represent our interests down there in what some have called “Foggy Bottom” and I prefer to think of as “Goofy Central.”

They want to manipulate us so that their party, whichever one it happens to be, can control the machinery of legislation, pick committee chairs, and manage the microphones.

Until the Constitution is amended to allow 100 United States Senators to be elected by all the people of the United States we need to continue to insist that our Massachusetts Senators understand a lot about clam chowder, the Red Sox and the Patriots and absolutely nothing about Muscle Beach, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, the current frustrations of the New York Yankees or what Tim Tebow had for breakfast.

I have to stop here because I have a plane to catch.

I have been asked to hurry down to Texas to help those folks sort out which guy with a big hat and no cows should be elected to represent them in the U.S. Senate.
