A current Scott Brown TV ad features a man who identifies as “a union construction worker.” The man, George Patriarca, has a very active Facebook page*, and on it has called President Obama a “faggot,” a “Muslim,” and Elizabeth Warren a “douchebag,” according to the Huffington Post.
An examination of his Facebook page and photos reveals repeated use of the phrase, “Niggaaahhh PLEASE!,” and this comment:
“New Nike LeBron sneakers out @315 bucks– break out the EBT cards niggahs!“
Patriarca also appears to call President Obama a “filthy corrupt slimy piece of shit,” a “muslim illegal alien commie douchebag,” First Lady Michelle Obama “the first Wookie,” Obama campaign spokesperson Stephanie Cutter “a lying KHUNT,” MSNBC anchor Andrea Mitchell a “Khunt,” and DNC Chair Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz a “sleazeball,” and “a stupid khunt.”
Patriarca also writes, “What do you call 10 thousand lamestream media reporters found slaughtered like fucking swine? a great fucking start!”
One image, below, titled “Celebrate Diversity,” features multi-colored ammunition, and the comment, “lock and load, people.”
While it’s certainly Patriarca’s right to say and write what he likes, the lack of vetting by the Scott Brown campaign, and allowing him to speak for Brown in a TV ad for re-election to the United States Senate is disturbing, as are what appear to be Patriarca’s apparent misogyny, racism, and homophobia.
Matt Sledge at the Huffington Post adds:
Patriarca’s views are available for perusal for anyone with a Facebook account, and from some of his posts, it is clear that he relishes his provocative online persona.
“I attended Brandeis,” he says underneath one photo. “Jew U. Great school. the people, not so much. One thing I learned is that Jews have a persecution complex and they hate themselves. That is why I believe they vote for liberals.”
UPDATE: About 30 minutes after this article was published, Patriarca’s Facebook page is listed as “not found,” indicating he may have temporarily or permanently deleted his page.Â
