(Later in the day the Court removed the stay much to my chagrin, allowing the sale to go forward, but preserving the substantive issues.)

Next we talked about the latest MA democrat Speaker of the House to be indicted – Sal DiMasi (the last three Massachusetts Speakers, all democrats have been indicted).  I wondered what Governor Patrick knew and when he knew it.  Unfortunately no one in the press is wondering the same thing.

We talked about North Korea, the two women being held there, the escalation of their nuclear weapons program and their threat to use nuclear weapons in “a merciless offensive” if provoked.  What will the president do?

Dick spent some time praising MA State Senator Steve Brewer’s 29 years of service right before criticizing life time appointments to the Supreme Court.  Senator Brewer was our guest at Rotary the night before.  He is a very gracious tax and spend liberal.

I mentioned Senator Kerry’s $819,848 IRS lien which Dick seemed to think meant he wasn’t getting favortism from the IRS.

We discussed the Cuban spies, and their motive, (which escapes me entirely), Europe’s turn right in this week’s elections, and Hezbollah’s failure to get a majority in Lebanon.

Finally we talked about the Boston Globe’s Newspaper Guild’s  “no” vote to voluntarily cut wages and the impact going forward.

Enjoy!
