Doesn’t it sometimes seem like almost every sanctimonious jerk in politics and the left-wing media has some kind of connection to Massachusetts?
The Commonwealth has become a magnet for a hugely disproportionate number of America’s most obnoxious know-it-alls — they’re not all natives, but so many of the nation’s most insufferable idiots have spent time here, and they all have one thing in common.
They’re smarter, more moral and just generally better than the rest of us, and they want to inform us of their superiority 24/7, whether we want to hear about it or not.
This state has turned out more jokers than the old Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Clown College in Sarasota ever dreamed of.
It’s amazing. Normal people come here, to go to college or on vacation or make a movie or something, and they suddenly devolve into… Kennedys.
Take Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez – please, take her! Boston University. Another freshman in Congress — Sen. Mitt Romney, the former governor who began his late-life D.C. career be-clowning himself with a hysterical anti-Trump op-ed n Washington Post.
Speaking of which, how come every national sex scandal also has a Bay State angle? Just yesterday, the owner of the Post, leftist billionaire Jeff Bezos, was outed by the National Enquirer as conducting his extra-marital affair with a “busty” former local TV anchor in, among other places… Cambridge.
That story broke three days after Kevin Spacey was arraigned on sexual-assault charges in a Nantucket courtroom, which came the same day that Sumner Redstone, the 95-year-old CBS mogul, settled all his lawsuits with his mistresses, well, one of them anyway.
Bay Staters infect the entire nation, with the worst infestations inflicted on our neighboring states. The mayor of New York City, Warren Wilhelm, a/k/a Bill DeBlasio, is from Cambridge. Not a surprise, right, especially after he just said yesterday that there’s plenty of money, it’s “just in the wrong hands.”
And whose hands should all the money be in? Certainly not in the hands of the people who actually earned it, right Your Honor?
Mayor Wilhelm succeeded Michael Bloomberg, formerly of Medford. Bloomberg’s mayoralty was all about his opposition to 32’s – 32-ounce Slurpies, and .32-calibre firearms.
Ground Zero of this epidemic is Harvard Square, or maybe just a bit west on Mass Ave, at Harvard Law School, incubator of countless pests, among them Barack Obama, Laurence Tribe, Deval Patrick and most notably these days, the fake Indian, Elizabeth Warren.
Which brings us to another characteristic of the Bay State nuisance– the pandering to what they, the Beautiful People, perceive to be the oafish deplorables who reside in trailer parks outside the fashionable zip codes.
As the fake Indian said last week, reaching for a Chickalob, I mean Michelob Ultra: “Can I get me a beer?”
She was just channeling another bloviating Bay State legend in his own mind, John F. Kerry, who famously journeyed to Ohio to inquire, “Can I get me a hunting license here?”
Back to Harvard, just a few more names that come to mind: Al Gore, Lawrence Summers, Jonathan Gruber. But let’s not forget the other colleges of Massachusetts, like Wellesley, alma mater of Hillary Clinton, and Holy Cross, which produced Comrade Chris Mathews of MSNBC.
Also from MSNBC: Rachel Maddow (Northampton) and Lawrence O’Donnell (St. Seb’s, Harvard). The recently fired boss of fake news 60 Minutes, Jeff Fager – he’s from Wellesley. Ditto the wrinkly Jane Curtin, famous long ago but more recently heard wishing for the death of the GOP.
From Bristol County – the unwatchable George Stephanopoulos, and E.J. Dionne, the unreadable moonbat newspaper columnist.
Sometimes I notice someone on TV and I get that vibe… what a pompous prig! He must be from… and yes, almost invariably he is. I had that feeling about Rep. Adam Schiff, the pencil-necked geek from California. I googled him, and sure enough – born in Framingham! Went to Harvard Law!
Remember ex-Rep. Mark Foley, the gay GOP’er from Florida? Forced out of office for drunkenly approaching teenaged male pages in DC. Don’t ask me why, but somehow that reminded me of congressmen from Massachusetts, so I googled Foley. Guess what? He was born in Newton, which at the time was represented in Congress by Barney Frank, who went to Harvard and Harvard Law….
Radicals? Ho Chi Minh worked in the kitchen at the Parker House. Louis Farrakhan went to Boston English, Class of ’53.
Criminals? From Lizzie Borden to the Boston Strangler to Whitey Bulger to Bill Cosby – the Killer B’s. But wait, even if they’re not from here, or own property here, Massachusetts is where reprobates and degenerates end up. Back to pervy Congressmen – remember Anthony Weiner, a/k/a Carlos Danger.
Convicted of sex crimes against a teenaged girl, Carlos now resides in Ayer, at FMC Devens, a federal pen. His Bureau of Prisons number is 79112-054.
I’m out of space and I haven’t even mentioned Matt Lauer, Bob Mueller, Peter Strzok, Howard Zinn, James Taylor, Ellen Pompeo, Mike Dukakis, Matt Damon, Ben Affleck et al.
And it never ends. Lois Lerner, the corrupt IRS bureaucrat who took the Fifth Amendment when asked about persecuting Tea Party groups on behalf of her Democrat bosses – flush with a fat federal pension, she just dropped $1.96 million on a mansion on Nantucket.
And Harvard College this week admitted David “Camera” Hogg, who couldn’t get into public colleges until he went on CNN and MSNBC to demand repeal of the Second Amendment.
Massachusetts: the large intestine of America. There’s always something new making its way through the pipeline.
