Mr. Smooth: Deval Patrick eyes road fixes for Michelle Obama

“Deval Patrick’s office personally asked town officials to dispatch road crews this week to fill potholes near his Berkshires mansion to pave the way for a smooth ride for first lady Michelle Obama when she hits the Bay State for a presidential fundraiser at the governor’s getaway next month….”

    What? No rose petals strewn before her carriage?
    Don’t they know who she is?
    Those pikers…

    Too bad if the locals are inconvenienced, but make sure the First Freeloader has a smooth road for her amply endowed sit down? Yeah, I’ll bet they’re not happy!

    Has there ever been a time in American history where the hoe-in-chief has been ass-kissed and slobbered over to such an embarrassing degree?

    Of course that’s rhetorical.

    Perhaps they can just temporarily move the mansion to a venue with better streets. Nothing says “in your face, average American” like catering to the whims of royalty during an economic recession.

    Potholes add character and charm to a quaint village!

    If I were in charge of road maintenance, we’d fix the holes about 20 minutes before she arrived and be certain to overfill them.

    Moochie; “Dayyyum, why all these rocks and stuff be bumpin’ up inside this ride?”

    Just shove a unicycle up her fat ass and haul her behind the Hummer with a stout steel cable.

    Does she have anyone assigned to lay down their coat should she be confronted with a puddle of water while walking? Or are her lackeys going to start carrying her in a litter so her feet never have to touch the ground?

    I was going to suggest it would be less expensive to build a “sedan chair”, à la Cleopatra, and just CARRY Her Majesty to the venue.

    But who would they get to carry it?
    The Russian weight-lifting team is in London for the Olympics!

    Strangely enough, the worst potholes are on the stretch of road between his mangeon and the Golden Corral, where Michelle is scheduled to stop for a, um, salad before the fundraiser.

    Whers James Okeefe and the Earth Supply and Renewal team? Get them to dig a few new potholes, before she shows up and fill ‘em in after the 1st idiot leaves.
    At least then she’d be creating a few new jobs.

    How right you were about those comments in the Herald, Biggie. They were a scream. Who knew “BAStin” had so many wicked smaht conservatives?

    This is the kind of crap the Soviets did when a commissar came to visit. Plant some trees and paint the rocks along the route and we’ll have a Potemkin trifecta. Or is that troika, Comrade?

    what really bothers me is that the arrogance at which this is done. In this day and age someone had to have known that word would get out that they were paving for the first wookie’s visit. And no one stopped and thought ” this ain’t gonna look to good, maybe we should not look like we are doing favors”

    @Noodengr, they simply do not CARE how it looks.

    Ditto 100+ rounds of golf, six-figure vacations, partying down in the White Hut, etc. etc. etc.

    Our roads around here have a lot of little patched potholes. Maybe I’ll make a stencil and start painting that ugly Obama commie symbol on them.
