You know, the guy about whom you were gloating about winning Kennedy's seat earlier?

The irony if a Pub wins Kennedy's old seat and then kills the health bill with it.


Well, it turns out that he's a RINO.

Sen. Scott Brown, hero of teabaggers everywhere, voted to end the Republican filibuster of an unemployment benefits extension bill. And snubbed the tea party meeting in his own home state. And voted for health care reform in Massachusetts. And is pro-choice. And for civil unions.


My turn for the thumbs up smilie.

And you shall have it!



I've been observing Mr. Brown with considerable interest. Could it be that we have a Republican politician with a conscience?

He is kind of stupid though, recently asked why he opposed reform of wall street and banks he couldn't answer the question....

I'd say that the Deep-Cover Democrats program is working, except that Brown blew his cover a long time ago and still got elected on a Republican ticket.

Ohhh! He could have answered but that would have let the cat out of the bag about his retirement plan. Kind of not stupid, to be where he is.

Political move, answering complex questions without preparing = likely to get taken out of context and look like even more of a fool than not answering.

Not sure why support for same-sex marriage and abortion are mutually exclusive with fiscal conservatism.

Actually a majority of the people at tea parties support either same-sex marriage or civil unions if we can trust the New York Times poll. Also, 65% support abortion of some sort.

Interesting poll, I was surprised by some things.

-Giordano Bruno

"The greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance, but the illusion of knowledge."
-Stephen Hawking
