Bob Correia blows through a stop sign. Bob Correia hits a 19 year old girl. Mike Rodrigues is in the back seat. The cops ask Mike Rodrigues, "What did you see?" Mike Rodrigues says, "I didn't see nothing man." Obstruction of justice anyone? Vote for Mike "Stop Snitchin'" Rodrigues. Mike never rats out his homies.
But he is the only person running for the Senate who is against gaming in the Commonwealth. My vote may just come down to that one issue. Don't say it is a done deal. If enough anti-casino folks get elected, it IS NOT inevitable.
There is nothing wrong with gaming in the Commonwealth. I can understand people that have a problem with it going where the BioPark was supposed to go but you people who say no to casinos anywhere in the state seem a bit far out there to me. One issue voters also scare the crap out of me.
Sorry you feel that way. In every single case, when a person does some research into the effects of gaming on a community's character, economic well-being, and social effects, they come away not only against gaming in the city in which they live, but against gaming in the entire Commonwealth.
I ask you to investigate this topic. Don't listen to pols who spout job numbers. Question authority and do some simple digging. You don't have to dig very deep to read the truth---and the truth is pretty grim.
Please, do yourself a favor. Don't believe me. Don't believe Flanagan. Don't believe Menard. Do your own study and then report back.
I find it ironic that Coogan and his pals started this blog and try to destroy people...yet he is guilty of the same bullshit. Got to love the "it is OK for me" attitude. I am not surprised!!!

On August 5, 1992, the Commission's Enforcement Division (Enforcement Division) issued an Order to Show Cause, commencing adjudicatory proceedings.

On August 25, 1992, Senator Norton answered the Order to Show Cause, denying that he had violated the law and stating several affirmative defenses.[1]
Anon 20:58 9/12, "Coogan should check ethics before accepting endorsements". Maybe Rodrigues should actually get the endorsement before he tells the world he has it. But then again fabricating endorsements and accomplishments are nothing new to Rodrigues.

Funny comment about unionizing pigeons, but Rodrigues has not had a consistent voting record supporting labor so do not expect to see it happen! :)
