You Can Add Hypocrite To The List Of Things To Call Newburyport Rep. Michael Costello

By now everybody has heard the story of Newburyport Rep. Michael Costello and his shady move to block a Mashpee oyster farm proposal. This has been reported by quite a few outlets (the best being this article) so we aren’t going to beat a dead horse. He did this for money, plain and simple, but a greedy politician is nothing new. We just want to point out that he is also a total fucking hypocrite.

It seems that he is a supporter of local business and the shellfish industry in his own district, just not one that is 100 miles away and has nothing to do with him whatsoever.
