State Rep. Daniel Bosley responds to Jonathan Melle who asserts various wrongdoings after asking Melle to take him off his lengthy (see below)email list. Melle's accusations amount to slander, Bosley says.

Jonathon, I asked very nicely and I made a point of saying that I am not criticizing or stifling your right to "Dissent" as you call it. Blog all you want. However, I will now add your emailand name to my delete account and be done with it.
For the record, though, please get your facts straight as you write about me. First, there was no secret budget amendment on the corporate reporting bill. My amendment was in the Clerk's hands and on the rostrum for the entire day. I believe that the amendment was a good one and the fact that most of it was adopted by the conference committee and is now law speaks to that. The amendment did not give huge breaks to businesses for money that would accrue to Massachusetts. Get your facts straight and please don't refer to some blog or post as your proof as that may not be right. Give the amendment to an accountant and have them explain it.
Further, although you have the right to post on your blog and in email, stating that I was paid to offer this amendment is illegal, untrue and slanderous. Stating that I am corrupt is also slanderous. If you keep this up, I will refer this to a lawyer. Again you have the right to post, but not to post lies that slander another person.
Second, I voted to put the clean elections issue on the ballot and the voters changed ti. I had nothing to do with drawing up or offering a secret amendment.
Third, we have had this conversation before. I do not like the state lottery more than I like gambling. However, it is already law and brings over $900 million to cities and towns. Unless you can find a way to fund cash strapped cities and towns, I would suggest that we keep the lottery in place.
Lastly, and this is the crux of the issue, isn't it? I never "took you on" not did I have any quarrel with your dad. Yet, you insult me because I was the rep when we abolished county government and your dad was a Commissioner. I wish you had been at the meeting where I asked the Commission to do something relevant that would justify their positions. I suggested that they form a telecom association and bring broadband to the Berkshires. I suggested that they form an electricity co-op like the Cape. But they chose to do nothing and we couldn't justify charging cities and towns for a county government that ran a survey crew and the treasurer's office along with a few other minor duties. By the time I got into government, the D.A.'s office, the jail, and the planning commission had already been moved out. there was nothing for them to do and we abolished them. I am sorry that you have held a grudge all these years. It is not my intent to answer you anymore and I won't know if you answer me as I am putting you on a junk mail list. However, let me say this; Jonathon, think about what you write. Your list of people you hate or write against continues to grow longer with all of your perceived slights. this list is growing so long that it can't be everyone is corrupt or mean spirited. Think about this and try to adopt a more positive outlook.

Re: Jonathan Melle's reponse

Dear Daniel E "BUREAUCRAT" Bosley:

You say that my writings are repetitive, but so aren't the recurring or revolving financial problems the state government is facing: The "Big Dig", The State Budget DEFICITS, Special Interest Lobbyist $'s, Closed Door Legislative Sessions, and the like. Instead of criticizing me for my written redundancies, why don't you fulfill your ambition and be "elected" Speaker of the House and fix the state's long-term fiscal crises?

Do you remember your now failed secretive rider to the FY2009 Massachusetts State Budget, which The Boston Globe called "The Bosley Amendment"? The state's largest big business lobbyist group payed you to propose into law without even one public committee hearing to give huge offshore tax breaks to large corporations that would have further deepened the state's one-plus-billion dollar fiscal year budget deficit. This FACT leads me to ask you, Dan Bosley, who are your REAL constituents? I mean none of the businesses you were doing special interest work for are in your Northern Berkshire Legislative District! You are just another CORRUPT money-grubbing Beacon Hill Pol who screws the people to profit off of the vested state and corporate interests!

Since I follow your every political move, Dan Bosley, let us take a look at your perverse public record. You, Dan Bosley, are a big supporter of the state's monopoly on gaming: The (not so) great system of regressive taxation that is entitled "The Massachusetts State Lottery Commission", YET, you also oppose expanded gaming in the private sector that was Governor Deval Patrick's flawed 3 casino proposal. That means that you support regressive taxation so long as the state has a monopoly of redistributing poor peoples' limited dollars to the vested state & corporate interests' already wealthy flush respective coffers.

Let us look at your public record on "Clean Elections". A majority of the voters passed "Clean Elections" into law in the November 1998 state election. In the FY2004 Massachusetts State Budget (July 1, 2003), you supported abolishing the "Clean Elections" law as a secret rider to the state budget without even one public hearing! Between the Autumn of 1998 and the Summer of 2003, you both voted in favor of and in opposition to "Clean Elections"! FLIP-FLOP!

You have held $100 per plate fundraisers at the Pier 4 restaurant in Boston. You, Dan Bosley, have served on economic development committees not to create living wage jobs, but rather, to economically develop your own campaign coffers with corrupt special interest dollars. You have used your campaign dollars to finance trips to the Caribbean, Alaska and other far off places, while local and state taxpayers have paid your public salary and received greatly diminished public services.

You, Dan Bosley, have some nerve taking on both my dad (over ten years ago) and me. I know why you are so top-down and intimidating! The big wheels in Pittsfield and Boston politics did NOT want my dad and I to speak out against the CORRUPTION in city and state politics. Pols like Stan Rosenberg, Andrea F. Nuciforo II "Luciforo", Denis E Guyer, Carmen C Massimiano II, and the like, told you to take my dad and I on. Instead of having a conscience, you chose to be a BUREAUCRAT and follow orders with total banality and self-interest.

I had great hopes for you, Dan. You were going to take on Tom Finneran years ago, despite the fact that you were his loyal subordinate. For a while, you spoke out against the corruption in Massachusetts State Government, you told me that we were friends despite our public differences, and you made some of the most intelligent policy points of any public servant I have ever listened to. I hope you do NOT sell out completely. I hope a piece of you will still be the good man you have at times shown yourself to be in politics. I was hoping you were going to run for Speaker of the House so you could use your public policy expertise, good causes, and friendly demeanor to reform the state government.

Dan, I hope you prove me wrong on my criticisms of your perverse public record. You were one of Massachusetts' best hopes for reform. If you would STOP being a BUREAUCRAT and begin again being a Legislator, then the glimmers of hope you have demonstrated could be realized for the benefit of the commonwealth and its citizens.

Best regards,
Jonathan Melle

Jonathan,

Please remove me from your email list. I have asked this before
and am politely asking again. They are repetitive and serve no purpose. You are
among many that I am asking to remove me from their mailing list as they clog
up my email and we are limited in the amount of space that we get on our servers
for email. You are no longer a citizen of Massachusetts and I would rather that
I leave space for the emails that come to me from around the state concerning
state issues or more importantly, from my constituents.

I understand that you have a right to free speech, but would ask
that you limit yourself to those who correspond with you or your web site. And
please, this is not a criticism of you or your right to free speech. But let's
use some discretion and common sense here.

Thanks for your cooperation,

Dan Bosley

Palinology

Piper Palin jumping on an animal-skin trampoline in July.
Sarah Palin prepared dinner in the family's Wasilla kitchen while being interviewed by Matt Lauer, who also asked Piper a few questions. The rallies were her favorite part of the campaign, she said.


I'm thinking of trying to keep up with the Palins in the coming years on this or another blog.


Piper and Willow on Meghan McCain's charming blog from which she is taking a break.


Piper fixing someone called Piper Baker's hair also from Meghan McCain's blog.


So adorable. I guess I'm an aspiring Palintologist.



I've been having better luck balancing on the Swiss ball lately, maybe because I redistributed the weight on my head.

Young Sarah Palin from the Web site PopCrunch, which is collecting Palin photos.


From the Web site Grizzly Bay which is very critical of Palin's zeal for hunting.


I just love these Piper Palin videos I found on YouTube. What a cutey!


I know nobody asked me to do it, but I've been monitoring the Sarah Palin videos on YouTube. I think these by the LA-based actress and comedian Lisa Donovan are the funniest spoofs. She apparently has made her name as LisaNova posting amusing videos on YouTube.

Ralph Nader appears in this last one that I've posted. While not as funny as the first two it's quite a curiosity, I think.

Dear Denis E. Guyer:

This is the last email I will ever send you.

I understand that I am supposed to react to all of the dirty politics of Andrea Nuciforo II, and the like. I understand that the rumors you spread about me are to bait me into reacting to the layers of bullying placed upon me since I have been nearly 21-years-old in May of 1996 when I first met "Luciforo" when my dad successfully ran for Berkshire County Commissioner. I understand what I am expected to do with all of this.

I have learned whom not to be in my life of 32.5 years and counting. I am not going to take the bait you and those you have colluded with against me by telling people such terrible things about me. The things you have said have gotten to me and the dirty politics have taken its toll on me. However, my response is to live at my own level of dignity and be myself, not someone else.

I am not a pawn in a chess board. I am not the bait. You have lost!

Guyer to Melle:

Dear Jonathan,

You will be back.

You sent a similar "last email" about four years ago to me. I think it was six months before you were writing about me again. Not that you will believe this, but I actually go months and months without thinking about you. These periods are only broken when someone sends me your latest wild, paranoid bloggings about me. I sort of laugh about them( you should know-EVERYONE laughs about them) and go back to what I was doing again- not thinking about you- and working for the people who elected me.

I think you see yourself as more significant in my life (and the lives of others) than you are, or ever could be. I mean, ask yourself...why would I, or anyone else for that matter spend any free time even thinking about you? I have better things to do with my time.

I hope you are moving on with your life, but I realy doubt that you can-or you will allow yourself to. You have been (by your own admission) fighting this imaginary fight since you were twenty-one and you are now "32.5".That's a long time to be caught up in a fantasy. Good luck trying to break the 11.5 year habit, I don't think you can and 32.5 will become 42.5 and then 52.5 and on and on.Someday you will look back on your life realizing you accomplished little else than putting together a really nasty blog about some people who could've cared less about you. Now there's something to be proud of!

Your rantings about me and others is what makes you feel self important and must give you a great deal of satisfaction.
Imagine my satisfaction though in knowing that your efforts, blogging about me, have actually resulted in more traffic to my website and even a donation to my campaign fund!! What a wonderful irony.

Anyway, I would say goodbye, but I somehow think Jonathan that I will be hearing from you again......and soon.

Get A Life,
Denis

Classic Jonathan Melle

Photo is Amherst's classic congressman, John Olver.

Fellow Pittsfield native Jonathan Melle observes Massachusetts politics from the Live Free or Die state. Reprinting his views here (see below) is not an edorsement.
9/10/2007

What do John Olver and Jon Melle have in common?

Dear News Media, Politicians & the People:

The answer to the above question is...ANDREA F. NUCIFORO, Junior, (aka Luciforo)!

To explain, John Olver is the long-standing sitting United States Representative for most of Western Massachusetts. Unlike the incumbent Congressman from Amherst, Massachusetts(John Olver), Nuciforo, of Pittsfield/Boston, is a minion of the "John Forbes Kerry, Martin Meehan, Barney Frank...special interest political machine" ran by the large financial institutions in and around Boston. The Corporate Elite in Boston wants Nuciforo elected to Congress, thereby ousting Olver, so that he will do their bidding on Capitol Hill.

To illustrate, when John Forbes Kerry ran for the presidency several years ago (in 2004), the Corporate Elite in Boston put on a fundraiser for the wealthy candidate in Nantucket (Spring, 2004). The event, which was hosted by John Kerry, was also co-hosted by Andrea F. Nuciforo, Jr., who wore a matching tuxedo as he stood next to the junior Massachusetts Senator greeting the wealthy corporate executives and lobbyist who raised more campaign money for Kerry than the incumbent Bush was able to raise from his Corporate Elite donors in 2004.

To further illustrate, go to the following web-site:

http://www.bermananddowell.com/jsp2196567.jsp

There you will find that Nuciforo really only serves the Corporate Elite in Boston as a private Corporate Attorney for Boston's big banks and insurance companies.

Furthermore, please review the Boston Globe's 1/16/2007 news article, pasted below, which explains that:
$$$$$$$$$$$$
"Nuciforo , the former Senate chairman of the Financial Services Committee...collected $11,000 in political donations from Commerce executives in [2006],...Nuciforo has focused his private law practice on insurance issues during the time he chaired the committee. He is listed as "of counsel" to Berman & Dowell, a Boston law firm that cites insurance defense as one of its three practice groups. He joined the firm the year he became committee chairman. Nuciforo's practice area is listed "insurance coverage" and "insurance defense , " according to the firm's website. That legal work entails defense work for insurance companies against claimants. ...Nuciforo, who made $72,000 a year as a state senator, listed receiving $15,000 in income from the law firm in 2005, according to his latest financial statements filed with the State Ethics Committee. ...
$$$$$$$$$$$$

In 2008, Nuciforo will be able to run for U.S. Congress against John Olver and keep his "sinecure" in Pittsfield where he makes over $80,000 per year as the Central Berkshire Registrar of Deeds with a term of being up for "election" every 6 years. Nuciforo was "elected" to this "sinecure" in 2006 and he will not be up for "election" again until 2012. That gives Nuciforo the best of all Worlds! On the one hand, Nuciforo will raise more campaign money than John Olver because of his affiliations with the Corporate Elite in Boston, and on the other hand, he will have the security of his "sinecure" in Pittsfield. The only advantage that John Olver has against Nuciforo will be his long-standing incumbency. BUT, John Olver has one more ace up his sleave, although he may not know it, and that will be the assistance of Jonathan Melle (me) in defeating Nuciforo in his run for Congress by exposing the FRAUD Nuciforo really is!

NOW, here is the difficult part. Jonathan Melle (me) comes from a "have-not" background. My parents rely on public pensions for their financial security. Around this time in (the Autumn) 1997, my dad was quoted in The North Adams Transcript as criticizing the commonwealth for not paying the full amount to the Berkshire County Government for the Courthouse rent. By the Spring of 1998, Nuciforo filed a Massachusetts State Ethics Commission report against my Dad to get him fired from his then state job as a probation officer and force his resignation from my dad's elected position as a Berkshire County Commissioner. Please note that during the same time period in the Spring of 1998, Nuciforo set up secretive plans with the Pittsfield Police Department to have me arrested because Nuciforo alleged that I was a threat to him after Nuciforo threatened me twice the year prior. Please note that if Nuciforo got his way, my dad would have lost both of his jobs and his son (me) would have gone to jail. Had Nuciforo gotten my dad is trouble, my dad would not be collecting a state pension today. My family would be very poor instead of middle class.

What is the point? By Cliff Nilan calling my dad, Denis Guyer sending my mom anonymous letters with my emails enclosed, and the like, the point is that if I help John Olver next year win re-election by providing the Congressman with documents of Nuciforo's deficient and corrupt public record, the Pittsfield Political Machine will strike at my family again -- 10 years later. The Pols will try to take away one or both of my parent's public pensions to spite me for my long-term and continued stand against Nuciforo. My parents will blame me instead of the Pols for their plight, and dirty politics will win the day.

Because the absurdly trivial Pittsfield Political Machine has their targets on Congressman John Olver to put Nuciforo in political office, my family will be a casualty of war. I will be made to be the bad guy, and Nuciforo will shine like a statue and smell like a rose.

What John Olver and Jon Melle have in common is Nuciforo's dirty politics. I hope that John Olver realizes what is coming and will protect more than his own interests--i.e., guard at least my parents in their coming times of hardships. I don't care what happens to me in all of this. Bash me around, spit on my face, slander my name all over the place. I will still be there, standing tall, helping my parents and John Olver during their difficult times of need. I have been through Nuciforo's dirty politics ten years ago, and I am ready and willing to face him in Round #2!

In closing and on a human level, my mom is suffering as a cancer survivor. I know that politics is usually banal: Abortion, Healthcare Coverage, Homelessness, etc. BUT, in this case, have a heart for my mother's illness. The odds are against her. She may not survive. Do what you want to me, but please don't harass my mother anymore. If you "Pittsfield Good Old Boys" want to play hardball with me, I will beat you at your pathetic game each and every time around. If you want to play hardball with my mother while she is vulnerable and suffering, then you will meet the strongest of my continual dissents. You don't like me, and I don't like you, and that is the banal reality, but please, please, please have a heart and stop targetting my mother.

I WILL ALWAYS SPEAK MY GOOD CONSCIENCE FOR AS LONG AS I LIVE!

In Dissent,

Jonathan A. Melle

NEWS ARTICLE
Ex-senator moving on insurance positionSix say Nuciforo sought advice
By Frank Phillips, Globe Staff
January 16, 2007
Former state senator Andrea F. Nuciforo Jr., who was sworn in two weeks ago as Berkshire County register of deeds, is already moving on to his next job search: a bid to become Governor Deval Patrick's commissioner of insurance.
Nuciforo, who has been the Senate chairman of the committee that oversees the state's heavily regulated insurance industry, has told his former colleagues and politically connected figures on Beacon Hill that he wants the insurance post, which would pay about $120,000 a year. The move would require him to resign as register, which pays him about $80,000 a year but also permits him to practice law.
Nuciforo, a Pittsfield Democrat, did not return calls over the last several days seeking comment. Nuciforo's former Senate aide, Patrick J. Quirk, said the senator would have no comment other than he would be "flattered" to be considered for a position in the Patrick administration.
But six of his former Senate and political colleagues on Beacon Hill have told the Globe that he has sought their advice and help in seeking the insurance post.
It is not clear what chance Nuciforo has in landing the position in the Patrick administration. A senior adviser to the governor said the former state senator probably would not get the position, although he may be granted an interview. Patrick's press secretary, Kyle Sullivan, said the administration does not comment on "pending personnel matters."
Nuciforo's campaign to become insurance commissioner has confounded many of his former colleagues in the State House and stirred the political world in Pittsfield, where Nuciforo has been a popular state senator for 10 years.
Last March, he shocked local political observers when he announced he would not seek reelection and instead run for the register of deeds position that was being vacated.
Because he was a popular senator with a bulging campaign account, his presence in the campaign for register persuaded two other contestants, including a former Pittsfield mayor who once served as his aide, to drop out of the race. He ran unopposed in the primary and general election, taking over what is considered a political sinecure.
Nuciforo, a 10-year incumbent whose final Senate term ended Jan. 2, was deeply involved in several controversial auto insurance reform proposals designed to change the way auto insurance is regulated in Massachusetts, including plans by several major firms and former governor Mitt Romney that sought to create a more competitive market.
Nuciforo, the former Senate chairman of the Financial Services Committee, came out strongly against House legislation proposed last June that would have phased out state-set rates and phase in competitive rate setting over five years. He predicted that if it passed the House, the bill would be "dead on arrival" in the Senate, contending it was "consumer-unfriendly." He and other critics said it would sharply increase premiums for drivers in urban areas.
Commerce Insurance Co., the state's largest auto insurer, has lobbied heavily against many of the proposals on Beacon Hill, contending that proposals to overhaul the system would raise rates for drivers in urban areas. Those opponents say the legislation would reduce subsidies that currently flow from suburban and rural drivers to urban motorists.
Nuciforo collected $11,000 in political donations from Commerce executives in the last year. As his committee considered the bill last year, he also collected donations from insurance company executives who wanted more autonomy in setting rates. Massachusetts is the only state in which regulators set auto insurance rates.
Patrick has yet to clearly outline his views on insurance reform, although during the campaign last year, he said he would like to see more competition.
Nuciforo has focused his private law practice on insurance issues during the time he chaired the committee. He is listed as "of counsel" to Berman & Dowell, a Boston law firm that cites insurance defense as one of its three practice groups. He joined the firm the year he became committee chairman. Nuciforo's practice area is listed "insurance coverage" and "insurance defense , " according to the firm's website. That legal work entails defense work for insurance companies against claimants.
According to the firm's promotional material, Joseph S. Berman, a partner, "leads the insurance defense group which provides clients with aggressive and cost-effective representation in a broad range of insurance matters, including insurance defense, coverage, and the defense of unfair insurance practices lawsuits."
Berman said in an interview several months ago that Nuciforo does not refer insurance defense work to him or others in the firm.
Nuciforo, who made $72,000 a year as a state senator, listed receiving $15,000 in income from the law firm in 2005, according to his latest financial statements filed with the State Ethics Committee.
Last week, Patrick fired Julianne M. Bowler, Romney's insurance commissioner, who was implementing an assigned risk plan, in which as many as 1 million of the state's drivers would be randomly assigned to carriers based on market share. The plan marked a radical change from current policy.
