In America, the wide-eyed and innocent believe in unicorns and the Tooth Fairy.
In Massachusetts, they believe in “coincidence.”
For 10 years a Lowell woman had been getting her welfare benefits at the local office without, she claims, being asked to register to vote. She never bothered to do anything about it until now. What a “coincidence.”
So a group headed, “coincidentally,” by Elizabeth Warren’s daughter Amelia files a lawsuit on this woman’s behalf. Now, Demos has filed other such lawsuits in other states and in other years. But the one they filed against Massachusetts just happens to be while Amelia’s mom is running for U.S. Senate.
Wow! What are the odds of that?
The “coincidences” don’t end there. Other states, like Pennsylvania and Nevada, have chosen to fight Demos and its ACORN-leftover allies in court. Those cases are still pending.
But not the administration of Gov. Deval Patrick. In a surprise move, he agreed to a quick settlement, one that — talk about “coincidence” — just happens to involve spending a quarter of a million tax dollars to send voter registration forms to nearly half a million welfare recipients.
Or as they’re called around Warren’s campaign HQ, “likely Democratic voters.”
And are you ready for this? The Herald reported yesterday that one of the law firms that brought the suit on behalf of Demos is Ropes & Gray, “where first lady Diane Patrick is a partner.”
Wow! So a perfectly timed lawsuit allows hard-core partisan Deval Patrick to mail out voter forms to 478,000 welfare recipients just in time to help his pal Liz Warren, and one of the law firms that made it happen includes his wife?
Somebody get Ripley’s on the phone, quick! Talk about “believe it or...

This country is so screwed............stuff like this isn’t happening only in MA—we have become a nation of greedy politicians and bureaucrats......
So, to get a welfare check in MA, you have to register to vote as a Democrat, and to vote, you don’t have to prove you’re registered to vote as the person you claim you are.

Keep in mind that Mass politicians are (as a rule) thoroughly corrupt. The last THREE speakers of the House (think state-level Harry Reid) are convicted felons who left office in “disgrace” (I am not sure Mass politicans understand the concept of “disgrace”).
The last THREE!
Sounds like something the Romney Justice Department should get right on.
Their ultimate goal is to have mandatory voting Australia-style. Where you will have to show proof that you voted to collect your government benefit. Will assure 100% turnout amongst the takers.
The game is SO rigged in MA.
