Live from Sarah Peake's Dungeon

 Love and politics on the Lower Cape

Last month The Cape Codder featured an extensive story about Sarah Peake's splash into the Massachusetts House of Representative.   The reporter, Stephen Desroches, lives in Provincetown, is liberal, supports same-sex marriage and is gay, just like  Peake (shown on right with Ted Kennedy's "go-fer"). 

So I wasn't surprised to see 5 pages of ink lionizing Peake that included a pic of  the Representative smooching her lesbian lover. The Cape Codder's agenda, as it seemed at the time, was to normalize gay marriage by showing Sarah Peake giving her woman a kiss before heading off to her first day of "work." I was disgusted by the fact that the gays at the Cape Codder were using the newspaper to boost their buddy Sarah Peake's image and trying to shove homosexuality down people's throats.  (Ok, for those of you  who are ready to jump on me and vilify me as a right wing-extremist homophobe, please withhold your impulsive judgment until you hear me out for once). But I was wrong and must apologize for my own impulsive ignorance. The same reporter in this weeks issue of the Cape Codder exposes Sarah Peake's backroom deals. Yes liberals, your Goddess Sarah Peake is involved in dirty good old boy, or should I say,  good old  gal politics.

Sharon Lynn and her partner patronized Sarah Peake's campaign manager by purchasing a condo in her development in Provincetown. Then both Lynn and her partner patronized the Peake campaign by donating a grand total of, I believe, around $500.  So of course they would have to get something in return, how else do you think that Peake was able to raise close to $200,000.00 without making crooked deals?  So when 30 candidates were presented as applicants for the new town administrator position, Peake first whittled away all the most qualified candidates until only the least most qualified candidates remained next to, guess who, her political buddy SHARON LYNN!!!!!! Good job reporter Desroches, not even I was able to detect this. Now that's what I call expert investigative reporting. Having grown up in an evangelical church with members of Desroches' family, I am even now more convinced that he is the nice young man they say he is. Keep doing God's work Steve.

So how do we know that the other town manager candidates (other than Peake's fellow gay conspirator) are low caliber candidates? Well, Sarah Peake, known for her smear campaigns (i.e.: Peake vs. Perdue, Peake vs. Gomes, Peake vs. Gottwald, Peake vs. Maloy), investigated all the candidates, eliminated the qualified ones, and then SMEARED the least qualified finalists who were vying for the position against her bud Sharon Lynn.

Even more upsetting is Peake's recanting of her campaign promises. Throughout her entire campaign she spoke endlessly about how affordable housing was her top priority. Less than two month's after being swore in apparently she has abandoned this promise. When asked by a community television talk show host what her most important issue was she responded with homeowners insurance. WHAT?????? I always saw straight threw her insincerity all those times that she would stoke the media with the affordable housing jargon.  Just how can somebody who has played a major role in driving poor people off the outer Cape and into homelessness speak about affordable housing? How can someone who objectifies her working class house slaves (she refers to them as her maids) even dare claim to advocate for the working poor? Well, she did, and used her hundreds of thousands of dollars in dirty money on media campaigns aimed at fooling voters with these cheap affordable housing sound bytes. Typical Democratic politicians, rave about helping the poor when it's politically advantageous. We all know that it's REPUBLICAN's and Green Party people who help the little guy (Republicans and Green party people donate more to human service groups than Democrats).  Oh, and, AND, Ms. "I'm Will to Solve Affordable Housing" skipped out on a landmark affordable housing vote (3-0) that was taken by selectmen at Provincetown town hall (Peake is still a Selectman).

Sarah Peake, now housed in her State House dungeon, thinks that she can just wave her wand at people here on the Cape Cod now that she is State Rep. This is a major shift from the trajectory set by Shirley Gomes for the people on the Lower and outer Cape. As State Rep. Gomes did not govern, she did not exercise authority or abuse her position of influence. She was an advocate for the people. Sarah Peake is not. Shirley enslaved herself to needy people because she has a heart of gold. You don't think of Shirley Gomes as a "governing authority." With Peake going around pressuring town administrators into giving her financiers/machine workers jobs and political favors, yeah, those loathed images of back room deals, political corruption, Machiavellian authoritarianism and aristocracy do come to mind.

I knew that the Democrats would screw up, but I never dreamed it would happen so soon or that they would be so sloppy.  Check out my rap lyrics below:   (Chorus comes from Jay-Z rap song Ferrari's and Jaguars......yeah I still listen to rap and used to be a Homey G with baggy pants and Chicago Bulls hooded sweatshirts)

Yo, Patrick, Pelosi, and Peake......all birds of a feathah,    Bling bling (money)
to their buddies they all in it togethah,  
Pelosi snagged a jet that is mega chill, 
Patrick lounges in a pimped out Caddy De Ville,  
Yo, Yo, Yo Peake likes the honeys who got all the dough (money)  
If you're a straight man her gang of womyn will kill you slow

(chorus)  
We got  our Ferrari's and Caddy's switchin four lanes,  
top down screamin out "money ain't a thang"  
Patrick don't like it if it don't bling bling (sound of cash register)  
Sarah says to "to hell with the price cause taxpayah money ain't a thing"

Ok, anyone want to finish this? Got any rhymes?
