What’s well or fair about this one, Elizabeth Warren?

Boston Herald - The good news is, this letter exhorting the welfare crowd to get out and vote to protect their EBT cards certainly frames the campaign very clearly for U.S. Sen. Scott Brown.

“It’s me — and us — against the machine,” he was saying last night. “It’s us against Beacon Hill, Capitol Hill, Hollywood.”

It’s not enough that Granny Warren, the fake Indian, is raising more campaign cash from the Beautiful People and, yes, the machine, than any congressional candidate in the country. Now Brown has to contend with campaign mailings from the Department of Transitional Assistance, i.e., welfare, paid for by money extracted from the taxpayers — his voters.

“Professor Warren’s daughter sues the state to make this happen, it smacks of hypocrisy,” Brown continued. “You get it, I get it, everybody gets it.”

Yes we do. Deval Patrick is the Paul Revere of the welfare crowd. The Republicans are coming, the Republicans are coming! They want you to get a job.

Demos, the moonbat organization of the fake Indian’s daughter, throws in with the remnants of the corrupt ACORN. They turn up a compliant plantiff with a mysterious past, and before there’s even any discovery in the lawsuit, the state waves the white flag.

And now the commonwealth spends $275,844 to spend out a mailing to almost a half-million layabouts that includes a letter and a mail-in registration form.

“Please note,” the letter says, “that DTA does not verify whether or not public assistance applicants or clients are currently registered to vote or eligible to register to vote.”

In other words, whether they’re illegal aliens. So the answer is yes, Auntie Zeituni, former welfare-collecting illegal, now “refugee,” is getting one of these letters of alarm from Patrick. So is every other illegal in the state. How convenient.

Remember, the RMV no longer sends out notices to motorists that their driver’s licenses are about to expire. No money. But we do have all this dough to alert the illegals and the junkies and the ex-cons. I understand, it’s required under federal law that you have to be offered a chance to register every time you interact with the bureaucracy.

So I’m wondering, when will the state letters be going out to, say, the Gun Owners Action League? They have to register their firearms with the local police, right? It’s impossible to underestimate the gross ineptitude of state government, especially the DTA. And it’s true that when something goes wrong in government and you have a choice to blame either a conspiracy or incompetence, 90 percent of the time it’s the latter.

Still, in this case Scott Brown called it.

“This doesn’t pass the smell test.”
