Why I Voted For Scott Brown

I not only voted for Scott Brown–last night I attended his hometown rally in Wrentham, MA. There were about a thousand people there.

I am a conservative. Some of my views on issues are not in agreement with some of Scott Brown’s votes. So why did I vote for him? Before Scott Brown was my U. S. Senator, he was the Massachusetts Senator from my district. I am also friends of some of the clients he helped when he practiced law in Massachusetts. I am also aware of his work on behalf of the fishing industry in Massachusetts.

Scott Brown is an honest, hard-working man. He loves America and wants to see all Americans prosper. We need him as our Senator in Washington.

Tonight In Wrentham Massachusetts

Tonight in Wrentham, Massachusetts, a group of patriots got together to wave flags in support of the people in Wrentham public housing who were recently denied their right to place flags outside their houses. (That decision has recently been overturned–see rightwinggranny.com for the background and details on the story). These are some pictures of the crowd.

The Massachusetts 4th Congressional District

Dr. David Steinhof is running in the Republican Primary in the Massachusetts 4th Congressional District. His website is SteinhofForCongress. Dr. Steinhof is a dentist in Fall River.

Dr. Steinhof’s website states:

As the owner and operator of Steinhof Dental Clinic, a general dental practice established by his father in 1947, Dr. Steinhof knows all too well the challenges facing small businesses today.  As a healthcare provider, Dr. Steinhof sees first hand the devastating effect this economy and the lack of jobs have had on his patients and their families. If elected, Dr. Steinhof is committed to serving as a voice for businesses in Massachusetts and their families, with the goal of helping them to grow, create and obtain jobs and prosper.

Dr. Steinhof has deep roots in Fall River, he grew up there, attended school there, and now practices dentistry there. In addition to his dentistry degree, he holds a degree in Business Administration from Providence College.

I had the privilege of meeting Dr. Steinhof tonight in Wrentham, where a group of patriots had gathered to wave flags to show their support of the residents of the public housing in the town who were recently denied their right to fly the flag. Fortunately, when word got out of that decision, it was quickly reversed (see rightwinggranny.com).  He is a candidate I would be more than happy to support.

Isn’t Massachusetts Part Of The United States ?

Sometimes I wonder if Massachusetts is really part of America. The latest incident to cause me to question this occurred in Wrentham, Massachusetts, over the 4th of July holiday. I really enjoyed the 4th of July. I was in a parade with flags, marchers, patriotic music, and political candidates. There were a lot of flags around. Well, the Daily Caller reported today on a problem with residents of public housing in Massachusetts who decide to fly their American flags.

The article reports:

The Massachusetts Department of Housing and Community Development is claiming that a memo distributed to some public housing residents announcing a ban on public displays of the American flag was a mistake that is “being corrected.”

“Due to a tenant’s repeated complaints reported to the Department of Housing and Community Development over the July 4th holiday, Wrentham Housing Authority has been informed that the public display of the American flag in common areas is not permitted,” said the memo, which was posted on residents’ doors in the Garden Lane public housing complex.

The memo goes on to say that visible flags could be displayed within a resident’s home. Thanks a lot. Does the state now control how people decorate their homes?

Today I received teh following email:

The Wrentham Republican Town Committee is gathering at 6 pm on Friday July 13th on the common to protest the Patrick administrations original ruling that said American’s didn’t have a right to express their patriotism in public at public housing.  Please join us if you want to make sure this doesn’t happen again when no one is looking.

These are my kind of people!
