If you leave a mes- sage your call will be returned and if necessary the paperwork will be sent out to you. Thank you. William F. Carroll, Clerk, Boston Police Relief Association In the wake of the Boston marathon bombing President Obama at- tended and spoke at a memorial service at the Cathedral of the Holy Cross-Boston. The Boston Police Department was given 65 tickets to the event, and Officers who were interested in going had to submit name, dob, ssn for a background check. On the day of the event, over 500 tickets were released to the general public who lined up outside- no check required. And although everyone was told no parking would be available –Senator Lie-zy Warren didn’t get the memo, treating the cops and secret service on site like valets.To add insult to injury, as the assembled pols left the church, most put on a somber façade. War- ren came out waving like she was at a parade. #doyouknowwhoiam? H H H H H Speaking of disgusting-it’s a damn shame Veterans may wait up to a year or longer for benefits, but the same Government manages to get Illegal Aliens benefits within weeks of their arrival. H H H H H Does anyone else remember when a nanny was actually one of the grandmothers? H H H H H I won’t say the Marathon Bombing has changed everything, but I heard the “Cycling Murrays” have been up armored… H H H H H When I see a bunch of kids playing Ultimate Frisbee, I cringe, but since I had so much fun with that disc on the beach when I was younger, I ignore it. When I see a bunch of kids playing Quidditch from the Harry Potter books, I can’t believe how silly some people are. Then I smile thinking all that time running around with a broom between their legs may keep them from reproducing. H H H H H Obama is in quite a mess after triple scandals have theWhite House reeling. Benghazi, IRS andAPWiretapping have many wondering if the Prez and his pals are in over their heads, smart like a fox, or just plain stupid. Here’s my opinion: on the Benghazi matter, Hillary will find some underling to lay the blame on, with the hope it doesn’t taint her possibleWhite House run in 2016. Now we know who answered the phone in that infamous ad – NO ONE, and four Americans are dead. What caused it DOES matter, despite what she may think, or raged at Congress. If it is discovered State knew it was Al-Qeada, we’ll be able to keep Bill away from the Interns-her ambitions will be toast. In over their heads. The IRS scandal has a scapegoat-Lois Lerner. She’ll be removed, take a plea, and get a pardon when dear leader leaves. He got what he wanted-no or little opposition to his re-election. The email trail will falter under another “Executive Order” a-la Fast and Furious, and although Congress will steam, this one ends with a whimper. Smart like a fox! TheAPWire- taps may be the end game. Shades of Watergate, sketchy subpeonas, an embattledAG, and pissed off press may add up to Cabinet level resignations. The fallout among the media could be toxic, especially if it lingers through the Mid-Term Elections. Just Plain Stupid! H H H H H First Hugo Chavez and now toilet paper! Venezuelans find themselves in a tushy situation as the nation suffers through a toilet paper shortage.Rolls can be had for up to four times the price on the “Brown Market”. We all knew Chavez was full of crap but that much? C’mon. H H H H H A North Carolina woman had her juvenile son arrested for stealing her Pop Tarts. The 13 year old boy was hauled off by Police after be- ing called to the home by the distraught mom, Latasha Renee Love. He also drank her milk, slept in one of her bedrooms, watched her TV and used her shower. The cops should have locked HER up- for wasting their time.You had him-You raise himMs Love H H H H H Dubbed “The Hermit of North Pond”, Christopher Knight was finally captured and could face up to 1000 counts of larceny after spending 27 years in the Maine woods. Knight would break into cabins or steal from campsites to stock his own. He was seen about as often as Bigfoot, but left a trail of broken locks and empty cupboards. Stealing clothes, food, sleeping bags, and propane tanks, Knight talked to only one other person in his quarter century plus in the wilderness. He did not know if his parents were still alive, and his brothers had to introduce themselves when they visited him in jail, but he did know who the Kardashians were. Is there no where on earth to get away from those B!@#&$?? H H H H H I’m glad I wore clean underwear to my debriefing. H H H H H In typical Liberal fashion, while remembering the victim’s of the Marathon Bombing, Gov Patrick named each victim but referred to the 2 Law Enforcement casualties (Donahue from the T, and Collier from MIT) as “Officers”. Thanks for your support Gov! H H H H H Not to be outdone by our Domesticated Islamic Terrorists, 2 English Muslims from a radical Mosque hacked an English soldier to death in the street. The 2 had been investigated by authorities, were on the dole, hmmm sound familiar? Days later a French Muslim slashed a soldier on patrol in Paris. Anyone else see a pattern? No other Religion is out to kill the competition. Convert or die seems to be their motto, and not one word of outcry from the rest of them. Their (Muslims) silence speaks volumes, and condones these atroci- ties with their inaction. H H H H H I find it strange that some nitwit “rapper” Cameron D’Ambrosio, a high-schooler,from Methuen was held in jail after making a bomb threat on Facebook, YET Robel Phillipos got bailed after assisting his pal Tsarnaev. What the hell? H H H H H I’m glad we all made it through the Boston Marathon Bombing fairly well, to the Officers injured, a speedy recovery. If you need help – GET IT! We’re no good to each other if our heads aren’t in the game – stay safe, enjoy your family, enjoy your summer… From Battles on page 34 Wars are fought by generals, battles are fought by warriors
