On Saturday, October 10, 2009, the USTA officially announced that the Massachusetts Committee on Economic Development and Emerging Technologies would hold hearings on Gambling on Thursday, October 29 at 10 AM, Gardner Auditorium.
Oh?
.Since below is the address of USTA, Huh?
.
United States Trotting Association 750 Michigan Ave. Columbus, Ohio 43215
.
Since Ohio will be voting for the 5th time on predatory gambling, that's a curious connection.
.The article indicates --
.
....according to an e-mail received yesterday afternoon by Plainridge Racecourse President Gary T. Piontkowski.
.
Senator Spilka, did you forget to notify the Massachusetts media? Did you neglect to post an agenda of any sort anywhere on any type of "official" web site?
.
Or, Senator, was it your intent to hold another Casino Lovefest filled with gambling shills like your June 2009 Joke? Remember, that was the one you claimed was 'educational,' included mostly casino shills and you refused to release an agenda until just prior to the event, refused to allow audience questions or even a balanced agenda?
.
Did you read the Globe article posted here -- Know when to fold 'em ?
.
Senator, did you fail to notice that resolution that was passed at the June 2009 Democratic State Convention? Hmmmm. I'm sure someone could get you a copy and maybe they could explain that those delegates are the ones who work really hard to get you folks elected. Seems like a pretty trashy way to treat the dedicated.
.Pretty sleazy! Consistent with The Playbook, but a few of us expected better of you.
.Professor Kindt spoke at Ambassador Hunt's home. Did you invite him to your love fest?
.It's time for a cost/benefit analysis that considers the expenses and impacts, just as New Hampshire is doing.
.
The closest thing the Commonwealth has had to a gambling referendum was Ballot Question 3.
.
Here are the results --
Karen Spilka 58% Second Middlesex & Norfolk
.
Leadership is doing what's right to serve the common good, not ignoring the "crappification" of the Commonwealth.
