Tait Uses Sexual Vulgarity

[Don Dresden]

Ordinarily anyone with the good judgment and erudition to describe a dumb cunt like Senator Dianne Feinstein as a "dumb cunt" would be at the top of our fan mail list.  Even if the person in question is a malingerer and union goon like Bruce Tait.  We might even be tempted to say that there could be hope for him yet.

But then he goes and blows it by justifying his latest paroxysm by saying he was just "parroting" somebody else's comment.  Goes to show the general level of intellect he applies to this and everything else.  Like his nifty job as moderator for the Gay Boy Porn Front.  Obviously parroting the Klempner party line is what got him that position in the first place.  And we all know what position Chip likes to see his pals assume.

Despite this outburst, Bruce "The Parrot" Tait has been completely silent on other issues, such as pedophile-pandering pornographers, adjudicated civil rights violators, illegal vendors of experimental lab pigs for food, and physics professors who get 15 pals to write their doctoral dissertations for them.  

Somebody let The Parrot know he's free to borrow from us if he needs help coming up with some new material.

Tait uses sexual vulgarity for female U.S. senator

Bruce Tait, head of the Quincy Patrolman's Union, used a sexual vulgarity to describe Sen. Dianne Feinstein.

Police union boss Bruce Tait says he did not mean to be offensive when he used a derogatory word to describe a U.S. senator on a Web forum frequented by police officers across the state.

Responding this weekend to another person who used the term to refer to a female CNN newscaster, Tait wrote on http://www.masscops.com, “Speaking of dumb c***s, here’s what Comrade Dianne Feinstein had to say.”

Tait included a statement from the California senator in which she was critical of a recent Supreme Court ruling that overturned the Washington, D.C., handgun ban.

When asked by a reporter Monday about his use of the word, Tait said: “Somebody used it first, and I just parroted them.”

Tait pointed to his history of defending female officers in sex discrimination cases against the city’s police department.

“I’ve been quoted more than once in The Ledger and other media outlets saying the Quincy police has a horrendous track record as far as dealing with female employees,” he said. “For anyone to say I have a problem with females ... is just ludicrous.

“I think it’s kind of unfair and offensive that The Patriot Ledger is stalking me on an online (messaging board),” he added. “Anything I post there is my opinion as a personal citizen.’’”

The posting was removed from the site a few hours later.

Tait frequently used the police union Web site as a battleground for lobbing criticism at Police Chief Robert Crowley, whose retirement went into effect Monday.

The longstanding feud between the two erupted in the fall, before it was squelched by Mayor Thomas Koch when he took office in January. In one last post to the site Jan. 15, Tait said he had entered into a “temporary truce” with Crowley at the behest of Koch.

But that did not stop his frequent posts on the Masscops.com site, where he had chronicled the tussle and was well-known as the union head posting under the name Delta784.

Koch did not want to comment on Tait’s most recent post except to say, “It has nothing to do with the city and the operations of the city and the person’s job performance. Having said all that, I certainly don’t condone that type of language from anybody.”

Chief Paul Keenan, who was sworn in this morning, could not be reached Monday for comment through department spokesman Capt. John Dougan.

Crowley condemned the comment, saying it is not only offensive to the about 25 female sworn officers and civilian employees within the Quincy Police Department, but all women.

“To use that word, if in fact it was Officer Tait, then I don’t know how anyone in that department can support him as union president. It’s disgusting and shameful,” he said.

When asked how the matter should be handled, Crowley said, “I’m not going to comment on what the next chief or the mayor should do, but I’m very confident that Chief Keenan will handle Tait appropriately.”

Police officer Peter Curley, the union’s treasurer, who called the newspaper Monday after speaking with Tait, said he was “concerned with him being painted as some sort of chauvinist.”

“They’re his private opinions as a private citizen on a public chat room; he was not representing the (Quincy Police Patrol Officers’ Association) or its members when he wrote that,” he said.

Lawyer Marisa Campagna, who is representing former officer Siobhan O’Connor in an ongoing sex discrimination suit against the department, said Tait “has been totally supportive” of the case in his role as union president.

“I would be clearly flabbergasted to hear Bruce Tait used that word – it really seems so out of character,” Campagna said, mentioning she had also talked to Tait before calling.

Kathleen Bandera, who worked as a civilian employee in the department and won a settlement after taking her discrimination case to the federal level, said she finds Tait’s posting “contradictory“ to his previous postings on discrimination.

“If a man does speak like that about a woman, then that tells you a lot about the character and substance of the man,” she said. “If it’s true ... I have confidence the department will address it in the proper way.”

And if he doesn't I'm sure Tailpipe Chip will.

Lucky for Brucie all he did was run down a dumb cunt.  If he had said something nasty about butt pirates or toe lickers in Massachusetts he would have had Bawney Fwank and NAMBLA to deal with.

At least he didn't call her a dumb yid cunt.  Clearly the man has standards.

Wasn't Harry Scrotum available for comment?  Did Mike Rotchburns take the day off?  Was Heywood Jablomi out with the flu?

I wonder why Tait hasn't been fired yet. They must have a file on him thicker than the layer of lard on his ass. How many times has he been investigated or disciplined? How many times has he gone to war with the chief? It must be really hard to fire embarassingly incompetent employees in Massachusetts.

The succession of photographs that I have seen of Bruce Tait over the years shows him getting fatter and fatter. What should be his neck is just a bunch of jiggly flesh. Don't they have weight or bodyfat standards for his police department?

I wonder if Jennifer Mann would be interested in Tait's activities and associations at degreeinfo? Jennifer Mann may be reached at jmann@ledger.com.

99% journalists are only wh-res best suited to serve their employers.
Evidence about John Bear & co is just a few clicks away but apparently none even bothered before interviewing him as 'world authority'...plenty of Peter Popoffs out there, eh?
Peter Popoff was a televangelist who raked in millions healing people; busted by James Randi as a fake (he received his info from his wife on radiowaves and not from some god ), he filed bankruptcy but apparently has been back raking in millions short thereafter...
PFFT!

It looks like Tait is in pretty solid with the new regime in Quincy. We'll know for sure just how solid if his brother Ian Tait ends up getting on the Quincy PD.
