Connecticut governor displays Haitian flag at residence
By Julia Manchester - 01/12/18 06:23 PM EST

Connecticut Gov. Dan Malloy (D) flew the Haitian flag at the governor's residence on Friday, one day after President Trump reportedly referred to Haiti and other African nations as "shithole countries."

Friday is also the eight-year anniversary of a deadly earthquake in the country.

"The US is a nation of immigrants who originate from countries throughout the world. We should celebrate this diversity, not denigrate and shame it," Malloy said in a tweet.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

So is this a comment on his state? Should we reject immigrants from Connecticut?

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Perhaps Malloy should concentrate on his state’s budget problems
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

How embarrassing.
I disagree.  Circle gets the square.

Hills is getting hammered on Twitter for her Haiti post. Considering this brain trust probably endorsed her, he is flying that flag with an extreme lack of self awareness.

Maybe we can arrange for the virtue-signaling Gov Malloy to spend a pleasant month or two in Port Au Prince.  And live with the common folk....without armed guards.
