Alas, the Lion of the Senate’s old seat old was snagged by a young stag. I don’t know much about Scott Brown other than he is a hunk and a Republican. Born in 1959, Brown has held several political offices. He will serve as Massachusetts U.S. Senator for the remain 3 years of Senator Kennedy’s term. He will probably irritate the good people of Massachusetts and a Democrat will be in at the next election.
The significance of this win cannot be understated. It brings the Senate down to 59 Democrats rather than the 60 needed to pass legislation the easy way. There is fear that health care reform will not make it through now. The balance of power has been tipped. Democrats need to pay careful attention and so do Republicans. It was only a year ago that the GOP got their heads handed to them. Perhaps both parties need to change–big time.
Now I am sitting here wondering if the playmate of the month could ever win a U.S. Senate seat. I am guessing someone would make a huge deal out of her ‘past.’ Scott Brown was a centerfold in Cosmopolitan Magazine in 1982. Apparently being a centerfold doesn’t hurt males, especially good looking ones.
Warning! Incredible HUNK pictures!
According to Stargazing:
We’re pretty sure that, as a young law student some 20 years ago, Scott Brown didn’t have the slightest inkling that taking his pants off for Cosmopolitan magazine might come back to bite him in the, uh, rump.
But here it is, the naked centerfold he posed for in 1982.
And it’s been making the rounds on the Internet in recent days as Brown tries to win Ted Kennedy‘s seat in the U.S. Senate. The election is today.
In the June 1982 edition, Cosmo named Brown “America’s Sexiest Man.” The magazine reported on this picture way back in September, but apparently it’s just making the rounds now.
If anything, he’ll probably scored some votes off of this
Is Scott Brown our first Centerfold Senator?
Jon Stewart has great foresight and explains how all of this Republican win in Massachusetts came down.

Ick. M-H, did you have to put up that photo? I just wanted to announce that Massachusetts Democrats will now be organizing a Tea Party to protest the outcome of today’s election. Whatever works!
A hunk is a hunk.
All kidding aside…59 is still a majority out of 100 senators. Perhaps the Democrats need a wake up call. The Republicans got one a year ago. When both parties are getting the wake up calls, then maybe this is a signal that something is seriously wrong in both parties. Perhaps that explain why so many people claim to be independents.
I think it’s good that Obama and the Dems received this early warning of the country’s direction well ahead of the general election. We can adjust course accordingly.
Stoop to using the centerfold, then proclaim yourself a moderate? Uh-huh. It’s truly a beautiful thing. When the looney left is reduced to the centerfold, you know they must be ready to jump off of high buildings, swallow poison, or start slashing at the wrists. So sad that the little “socialist experiment” only lasted three years. Look at the bright side, though….the Democratic Congress got to blow through a couple trillion dollars on, well, their buddies. Now for the “we care about the economy charade leading up to the election”. Think anyone will take a party that maxed out the nation’s credit card to the point of ruin seriously on the economy? Lots of luck!
More class-acts from the Huffington Post:
BluDemocratGirl: F*ck the GOP, Ignorant Teabagging Fools, and the Independent Voters who stood up with that pathietic, porn star-wannabe bastard. Mrs. Coakley’s campaign could’ve been stronger, but she ran it down to the drain. I’m pissed ’cause now the health care reform is now in jeopardy!
Joe the Liberal: It absolutely sickens me… to see this solid blue state have some sleazeball, degenerate, scumbag filth republican as their “representative”. I’m even more sickened and disgusted to see Ted’s seat, that he held for decades on end go to this piece of garbage, cookie cutter, bottom feeding, dirtbag republican.
Odin2005: Another STOLEN election.
Akoto: Teddy must be rolling in his grave right now.
DainBramaged: All of you RePUKElican lurkers can go f*ck yourselves one race. F*ck you.You have NO F*CKING ONE to run against Obama in 2012 so go f*ck yourselves.
AndyA: If sanity is a right wing, bigoted, homophobic Nazi, well…yes I guess there will be sanity. Pretty faces often hide monsters within.
TwixVoy: They are chanting like Nazis at his victory rally. Chilling. A glimpse of things to come.
Still, liberals think they’re somehow “enlightened”, don’t they?
More interesting will be if the Dems try to push the health care legislation through before Mass. confirms the election (I can’t think of the actual word – but it will take 2 weeks or so) and then the new Senator is seated.
If the Dems try to push the Senate version of the bill through (since the “merged” version isn’t ready yet) before the new Senator is seated – I think it will backfire on them in the long run and not help them at the polls in November.
Also, the finger pointing is already starting. Obama’s people are now pointing fingers at Coakley whereas before the election they were saying how great she was. It will be interesting to watch all the finger pointing. Obama’s people are saying it wasn’t a referendum on health care or on Obama – but it was at the very least a referendum (in Massachusets) on health care reform. No one can honestly say that it wasn’t.
And, who really cares what he did in the 80’s. That’s an awful long time ago. I didn’t know about his pictures until I saw them here – I did not see that reported elsewhere.
Slowpoke, don’t forget the leader of MSDNC, Keith Olbermann who referred to Scott Brown in this way:
“In short, in Scott Brown we have an irresponsible, homophobic, racist, reactionary, ex-nude model, teabagging supporter of violence against woman and against politicians with whom he disagrees. In any other time in our history, this man would have been laughed off the stage as an unqualified and a disaster in the making by the most conservative of conservatives. Instead, the commonwealth of Massachusetts is close to sending this bad joke to the Senate of the United States.”
Typical left wing radical, just call the other guy every name in the book you can think of… what a disgrace Keith is to mankind.
Hi Moon, I love your moderate view point on this win by a Republican in MA. Also, you stated “There is fear that health care reform will not make it through now. “.
Fear? That is exactly why they voted for Scott Brown! He said at every campaign stop that he would be the 41st vote against this fraud of a health care reform bill full of back room deals, votes in the cover of darkness, bribes, payoffs and who know what ever else all from the ‘most ethical administration’ in history.
Cokely ran ads with Obama saying a vote for Scott Brown is a vote to destroy health care reform… how stupid could you be!? That is exactly why people were voting for Scott Brown. Cokely and Obama just ended up pushing the last few voters Scott Browns way without even knowing it.
Slow, Why on earth do you feel I ‘stooped?’ Loony left? Slowpoke, I don’t think anything would please you. Your guy in MA won. I think he is a hunk. Why must I sit around and wring my hands? Why is the centerfold liberal or conservative? Your reaction astounds me. And actually, you don’t know that I wasn’t rooting for Brown all along.
Obviously you feel the centerfold is naughty. I think it is funny. Must be a male thing.
Did you hear Webb’s press release?
GR, I don’t care when he did the centerfold thing. Do you think that a woman could run for office after posing as a centerfold?
I don’t care that he did. In fact, the first time I saw him I thought he was an extremely handsome man. Obviously many others did too. Glad he held his looks over the years. Lots of people don’t.
As for where I got the pictures….They have been all over the internet. A seriously Republican male friend sent them to me. I thought the centerfold was common knowledge. I did have the decency to put the centerfold on page 2. give me a break.
You are all being puritans.
I think it’s hilarious that people are freaking out. Don’t forget, Bush, pushed through almost all his agenda (except privatizing SS…Thank G-d I might add)WITHOUT a super majority. Democracts need to figure out how the republicans did it and emulate it.
Hello, what is your point? Are you denying that there is fear, obviously by supporters of the health care currently on the table, that health care will make it through?
Have you seen Senator Webb’s press release?
What is it that you want me to do? Cheer? Wring my hands? Please tell me how a TRUE moderate is supposed to act when a person from another state is elected and jeapardizes a health care proposal I am not even sure I support?
Not my state, not sure what I support and what I don’t….how about the facts? Did I lie somewhere and not know it?
How about that Webb statement?
I was sort of joking in my comment about the Senator’s pictures.
I just think it will be interesting to see what the Democrats do in the next few weeks before Mass. certifies (that’s the word I was looking for in my previous post) the election and the new Senator can be seated.
It is true, you don’t need a supermajority to get things done, as was pointed out by Elena. The supermajority just makes it very easy to get legislation pushed through. Now it will be a little more work for the Democrats.
It is disingenuous though for Obama’s people to say that this is in no way a referendum on health care reform. In normal times it would have been easy for a Democrat to win that seat.
My niece and future nephew – who live in suburbs of Boston – are Democrats but even they could not vote for Coakley – that is a very small sample but to me told me that there was a good chance that the Republican would win. They did say Coakley ran a very complacent campaign, and that was probably a fatal mistake on her part, and the Democrats – thinking anyone they put up for that seat would automatically win. The Democrats got too complacent, so this is probably a needed wake-up call for them.
Thanks for the snapshot on the campaign, GR. I sort of wondered about complacency. There is also the idea that just maybe people are tired of the status quo. I know many of the people of MA loved their Kennedys. But Coakley is not a Kennedy and the torch has been passed. Maybe people just thought it was time to make the Kennedy/Democrat break.
And I still say a lot of women voted for Scott Brown because he was good looking.
What did your niece and nephew think was wrong with Coakley? I know very little about her.
There is so much that could be said about this race and what can be learned from it. I really wish I had the time right now to post more, but I will mention two things that should be a silver lining for Democrats that are disappointed with the outcome.
1) Sarah Palin’s political career is over. Scott Brown can tap into the same supporters, but without the baggage of the family drama and the Tina Fey impersonations. Palin will remain a pundit for a while, but I doubt you’ll see her on a national ticket again.
2) If the Democrats in Congress are smart, they will listen to voices like Sen. Webb and regroup. While they would take a short term hit with their base, they could do very well in the long term to re-write some portions of the HCR bill to get some Republicans on board. The easiest place would be malpractice insurance/tort reform. Pass a bill with 5 or so Republican Senators, show Obama standing up to the trial lawyers and that’s a win for them. If Obama moves more to the center and makes a strong push to get some more moderate Republicans on board for major legislation, he could turn this into a positive.
Lastly, Democrats should not underestimate Scott Brown. He is either very clever himself or has some very smart people working for him. His “people’s seat” line in the debate was a very big deal. It killed the “Ted Kennedy’s seat” argument. Actually, it didn’t kill it, it turned it against the Democrats. Every time somebody mentioned “Ted Kennedy’s seat” after that debate, no small number of people were offended. While 2012 will be a tough election cycle for Scott Brown, with Obama up for election, any Republican that can win a statewide race in Massachusetts should be of concern, especially when he runs unabashedly as a conservative.
The Mass. election was not a referndum on Obama, according to Scott Brown:
Brown: Mass. election not referendum on Obama
By GLEN JOHNSON and LIZ SIDOTI, Associated Press Writers Glen Johnson And Liz Sidoti, Associated Press Writers – 26 mins ago
WASHINGTON – Sen.-elect Scott Brown, the Republican who upset Democrats in the special Senate election in Massachusetts, says he doesn’t think it was a referendum on President Barack Obama.
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/us_massachusetts_senate;_ylt=Ahl4R9qoF5oP4YM3dQug9m.s0NUE;_ylu=X3oDMTNuaWRtazRpBGFzc2V0A2FwLzIwMTAwMTIwL3VzX21hc3NhY2h1c2V0dHNfc2VuYXRlBGNjb2RlA21vc3Rwb3B1bGFyBGNwb3MDMgRwb3MDOQRwdANob21lX2Nva2UEc2VjA3luX3RvcF9zdG9yeQRzbGsDYnJvd25tYXNzZWxl
I don’t know any moderate that ‘fears’ Scott Brown will kill the current ‘health care’ bill.
Most ‘hope’ Scott Brown will kill the current bill and put an end to the current culture of corruption and BUYpartisanship Obama and the Dems have ushered in.
Interesting observations, Formerly. I don’t disagree with most of them. I hardily agree with you about Senator Webb. The Democrats do need to regroup. Its the house ones I want to slap. Maybe its just me.
Interesting observations of Palin. I don’t even see her and Brown in the same arena. I hope you are right.
I do think that tort reform is needed. Where to start is a problem though. If you are the one suing after some horrible instance of malpractice, it doesn’t seem so trivial though. How do we cap some law suits and not others?
Also, Scott Brown doesn’t seem like an Uber-conservative to me. Maybe in MA, but move him out of his home state and he almost seems moderate. I just heard out of his own mouth, ‘yes we need health coverage for everyone…’ Do uber-cons believe in health care for everyone?
It is easy to think Ted Kennedy’s seat. For those of us who have been around for a while, it is Ted Kennedy’s seat and will be at the end of Scott Brown’s term. When someone holds that seat for nearly a half century, that’s a hard mental habit to break. Had Coakley won, it would have still been Kennedy’s seat. I still think Mark Warner is sitting in John Warner’s seat. Old habits are hard to break.
Beyond the balance of power/fillibuster issue, more importantly Democrats will now be running away from anything touchy like scared rats off a sinking ship.
Here’s hoping one party or the other comes up with a few ideas to put America first. And stops foisting “comprehensive” special interest boondoggles on us and trying to force them down our throats despite loud cries of “rape”. (Is that too groteque a metaphor for this board?)
No Rick. And would you care? NO. ok, moving on…..[evil grin]
What do you mean, “Democrats will now be running away from anything touchy like scared rats off a sinking ship”
Hello, you would have no idea how a moderate thinks. Let me let you in on a little secret: I don’t necessarily believe everything in posts that are written here. I write them to stimulate conversation most of the time. Don’t try to read my personal beliefs into anything written here unless I say I feel or believe it. Most people here, other than you, realize that.
News flash: There are plenty of people in the Democratic party who fear that the health bill won’t go through. The FEAR has been broadcast on every news station, every cable news program for weeks. Honest, I didn’t make it up.
Do I FEAR it? I am not a Democrat.
Now go pick at someone else….someone who doesn’t have the power to put you in time out. Your sucker punching is getting old already this morning.
Just one more thing before I start ignoring you, if I was horribly upset over this Massachusetts win, I wouldn’t have posted it. I had plenty of other material. It just wouldn’t have shown up.
By the way, I just read Jim Webb’s statement and he could be more dead on… if Dems want any chance of restoring respect for their party they need to do exactly what he suggests. Anything else will result in what happened to Republicans a few years ago.
It all goes back to the old saying, power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Dems have a super majority and what happened to them even though a few years back the signed on to the ‘Honest Leadership and Open Government Act’ and Obama promised to run the most ethical administration…
Mainly, they thought she was a very weak choice to fill that seat, plus they like a lot of people are skeptical of the health care proposals. They also just liked what the Republican challenger had to say. Coming from them, who usually just automatically vote Democrat, it just seemed an interesting little microcosm of the race. I have not discussed it in detail with them, so really that’s about all I know on their views. I really did not follow this much until this weekend when the news reports started coming out that the Republican had a good shot at winning. Even then, I did not follow closely really.
Well, interesting discussions all.
To Elena, who said, “Democracts need to figure out how the republicans did it and emulate it.” I couldn’t agree more. I was turned off immediately when the President and Mrs. Pelosi both said publicy “we won, you lost, get over it.” So what do they need to do? They need to actually talk to the other side and drop the arrogance. I said in a post shortly after the election that my biggest fear was how the country was going to be with one party in near absolute power since I have found through my many years on earth that good decisions arise from the tension of disagreement and when there is no reason to listen to divergent points of view, bad decisions result.
To Wolfie who said, “Do uber-cons believe in health care for everyone?”, I think you are wrong and I think you have been listening to the rhetoric of the defenders of the heath care package. Although I do not believe myself to be “uber” anything, I do tend to be conservative in some things, and progressive in others.
I think most people want improvements to the health care and its delivery systems. But the devil has always been in the details. I think if they tried to get a few and important things in, it would have had wider support. I think a health care reform could have been accepted if it encompassed the following things (and maybe more that I am not sure of).
1. It should have the portability and the protections against dropping people either for preexisting conditions or because of illness.
2.it could have an exchange that provides choice and negotiating power of masses of people administered by the government or quasi-government entity like the Federal employee system. The Federal system does not get into health care questions but provides the negotiating tools to keep prices in check (how well they do may be a different story.) It would also help small businesses who do not by themselves have the market power to get good deals for insurance.
3. It could have eliminated the restrictions against competition that occurs now by allowing all insurance to go across state lines.
4. It could have had some nod to tort reform perhaps by limiting lawyer fees or eliminating “percentage fees for awards” . That would actually enhances the awards to victims by allowing them to keep more of their money. (There is a reason that Federal contracts do not allow fees based on a percentage of costs–it is because there is incentive not to provide the lowest cost.) No one seems to mind limiting what doctors and hospitals can charge but when it comes to the holy lawyer, forget it.
But when you add in getting into people’s decisions for their personal lives like requiring insurance, even if young and healthy, and you face a fine or when you tax people for the quality of their health care plan (in the real world, who is paying for the best benefits–they are the ones that gave up higher salaries for the higher insurance or are willing to pay the additional premium), you are overstepping. And that is what has people mad.
So the details of the legislation is what is wrong, not the concept of reform. You could get everyone to buy into proper reform that has elements of all opinions. Now maybe the majority in Congress may have to listen a little more to the other side? Not a bad thng.
There will always be partisans in the Republican party as well and will not agree to anything if it will hand any kudos to the other side. But so what, they will show their real agendas when reasonable health reform is discussed and people will discount them.
I don’t think it was a referendum on Obama, but it was to some degree a referendum on health care reform, and on the Democrats having a super-majority in the Senate.
I think the Democrats would be very smart to listen to people like Senator Webb, who sounds like he has a good grasp on the situation.
If a woman had been in the centerfold, she would be drummed right out of the races. Thus, what’s good for the goose…
I’m wondering if we will ever have politicians who don’t embarrass us. Actors, centerfolds, playboys… –sigh–
I don’t see anything wrong with the centerfold as long as we use the same standards with women.
Rez, I think you mischaracterize me. When I say Uber-con, I am not referring to your rank and file conservative. I have heard several people (who I would characterize as ultra conservative) on TV act like they simply don’t feel we need to make health care available to everyone. That is what I was questioning. I wasn’t making a statement.
So I have to say I am not wrong since I didn’t make a statement in the first place, but was merely asking a question. It is my opinion that people in MA who are called conservative might not be as conservative as some others because everything is relative. Remember good old conservative Governor Weld who was one of my favorites? I thought he was moderate.
You would be surprised how very little of the health care rhetoric I have listened to , especially from those pushing it.
If I misunderstood you, of course I apologize. Your sentence did not seem to be quoting anyone so I took it as a statement or implication that you believed that no matter what there were many who just didn’t want reform. I do not believe that “many” is the case. Of course there are “many” that think that 9-11 was a plot by the US government but thank goodness there aren’t actually “many” of them either.
I was commenting that proponents of the current legislation have said uniformly that so-and-so doesn’t want reform. This is a half-truth as the rest of the sentence the proponents do not want to say–but the public is–they don’t want THE reform being voted on. That is a huge difference.
By the way, remember I am not one who has ever accused you of not being truthful about your leanings as we all have a right to view what a “moderate” is. I am afraid that if we try to limit a description to one word, it is inaccurate but to use all the modifiers would be unwieldy.
Rez,
Actually I was doing a real bad job of paraphrasing Scott Brown who I had just heard make that statement on TV.
I know you haven’t accused me of being the lying moderate. 😉 Truthfully, I couldn’t tell you anything that is in the health care bill.
I think my only point is, I don’t think that Scott Brown is an extreme conservative. I also might be wrong. I haven’t paid much attention to the election. Not my state. I did laugh like hell at Jon Stewart though. He certainly defined a couple of problems. I suppose I haven’t taken the MA election seriously. It might be a good thing for both parties.
I think a lot of people didn’t take the MA election seriously and that’s what shaped this election. The Democrats were so over-confident that they had a lock on that seat, given how heavily Democratic the state is and the fact that it was Kennedy’s seat – and no way could it ever turn Republican. They didn’t gauge the anger of the average voter at the polls about the way the healthcare debate has been going in Congress, and they probably could have run a campaign that would have kept that seat Democratic.
Also, I don’t think a woman who had posed in pictures in the 80’s – that would have much of an impact if such a woman ran. More recently, yes. but come on – that’s 20 years ago or more. The average voter isn’t going to care about that. Again, if it was last year or just 5 years ago, yes, it would have an impact.
I hope you are right, GR. I am not so sure I agree though. There are a lot of people who get rather rattled. The secret is asking yourself how you would handle it if it were your daughter.
I will never forget one day at OBX about 15 years ago. My daughter came down in the identical swim suit as the playboy centerfold was wearing. All of a sudden “Mr. I’m so Liberal about stuff like this” got this horrified look on his face and had to go back to the condo. He denies it to this day but there were witnesses. He was horrified at his daughter.
I think PW County Resident has hit it right on the nose. It is not just the liberals who believe that certain parts of our health care and health insurance systems need revamping and improvement in the interest of fairness. If the President had truly followed through on his campaign promises of bipartisanship and not left too much of the health care and insurance issue in the hands of those in Congress who wanted ultra-radical change, I am willing to bet that we would have been well on the way toward a bill which would have wider acceptance and much less controversy. There is common ground in this issue for both the Left and the Right. We should stop all the screaming and start looking for it. That would also give us more time to focus on the proverbial elephants in the room: an economy that seems to resist any solution to the jobless problem; and a deficit/national debt that could become a more dangerous threat than al-Qaeda.
I honestly didn’t know he was a centerfold and had never seen those photos until now. I couldn’t help but feel happy for him and his family during his victory speech. They seemed so proud and honored. I would like to have the health insurance regulations that are in the bill, so I hope that there is going to be a bi-partisan solution. The Republicans and the Tea Party have proven that they can block progress for the nation if they choose to. The trick is how do we convince them NOT to chose to? I refuse to believe that the majority of Republicans would rather see America fail if the Democrats have all the power. They’ve proved that they can see to it that we do fail, but I think they’ve made their point now and hopefully we can move in in a more bipartisan way.
GR, with regard to the semi-nude photos of the new MA Senator, when it comes to sexual improprieties, isn’t the basic rule pretty much irrefutable?
If it’s a Republican who cheats on his wife with a staffer and then pays off her family, goes to South America when he’s supposedly hiking, frequents prostitutes, or solicits men for sex in pubic bathrooms, it is treated as a private matter and why should anyone care about this anyway.
If it’s a Democrat, the Republicans and right wing media squawk and squawk and do the holier than though thing with no shame for their hypocrisy.
@GainesvilleResident
The centerfold is every bit as good as the “Master’s Thesis” stuff the left came up with on McDonnell…..desperate acts when nothing of substance can be found. It worked with Palin, why not try it with everyone? I am often asked why not put animosity aside? Guess why.
Witness Too — Sometimes I think Americans tend to misdefine “bi-partisanship.” Too often we think that it means somebody on the other side has to come over to our side and buy into our own views lock, stock, and barrel. We then trumpet this as bi-partisan cooperation on an issue. To me, however, it means that we all sit down and lay everything out candidly on the table, hoping that, by taking a little bit from one side and a little bit from the other, we can find a middle ground that can truly be called bi-partisan. Everybody gives up a little bit and everybody gains a little bit. Admittedly this doesn’t always work, and we can wind up at loggerheads. But it sure beats everyone laying out their optimum positions from the very outset and then refusing to listen to the other side. Sure, if you have the votes to pass it without the other side, you may get your bill; but you risk losing political peace and gaining bitter, long-term enmity at the same time. Now, I think, for instance, that almost all of us could agree on such things as inter-state portability of insurance and issues about health pre-conditions. Let’s at least get that done and out of the way.
“Thank G-d I might add)WITHOUT a super majority. Democracts need to figure out how the republicans did it and emulate it.”
Out of curiosity, didn’t we have a Democratic majority when the Patriot Act passed?
As far as Brown, the essential parts aren’t showing. As smutty as it is, Cosmo is still considered to be fairly mainstream, and any child can pick it up and read it while waiting in the Walmart checkout line. So I don’t think I would classify this as a sexual impropriety.@Witness Too
Coakley lost because of her arrogance and sense of entitlement to the Senate seat. She thought she was a shoo-in, went on vacations and didn’t do the normal rounds of campaigning that most people would expect, and her gaffes were inexcusable. She could have won the seat if she had simply shown up when it mattered.
Wolverine–applause from here on your post!
I thought everyone had seen the centerfold. My apologies if you had not. It was first sent to me by my most republican of friends. It has been all over mainstream TV.
I was glad to see it. Why? (come on…not the dirty old woman reason…) I have never made a secret of the fact I don’t want someone’s religion part of our policy. I am always on guard to see that the camel’s nose doesn’t get under the tent. I figure this guy might have some common sense without trumpeting his religious beliefs and demanding that they become part of our policy.
Glenn Beck grossed me out again today. He was bashing Scott Brown big time. He didn’t like his centerfold and he didn’t like that he said kiddingly that his daughters were available.
Wolverine, I think you are definitely on to something. I think the big mouths are going to have to shut up though. They twist and turn and steer things way out of proportion, all to stir up the masses. I have decided they are all just miserable human beings.
I missed that part of Glenn Beck, but I didn’t see the whole thing. I like Brown, he’s known as a moderate Republican (just like moi). I had seen the picture, for sure, every liberal blog has posted it a thousand times already. It’s so old, but I am glad certain women enjoy it. Yeah, I used to look like that, but I let myself go a bit over the years.
Well, that am I’m wearing this sombrero now.
@Moon-howler
>>>Also, Scott Brown doesn’t seem like an Uber-conservative to me.
He’s not a conservative. He’s pro-choice and voted for RomneyCare (Massachusettes version of universal health care) – which he admits is an abject failure.
@Moon-howler
>>> Now go pick at someone else….someone who doesn’t have the power to put you in time out.
Typical. Your lycanthropic “moderateness” comes to the fore once again! 🙂
Ring and Slow, I am glad I haven’t lost my touch. I can still spot those moderate MA Republicans. One of my favorite people is Governor Weld.
I really didn’t follow the election. I couldn’t vote in it.
Emma, thanks for letting me know about the “essential parts.” I was too embarrassed to ask, or to look for myself.
@Wolverine
I agree, Wolverine. Let’s hope it happens that way.
It’s no more pornographic than anything on network TV these days. I think he’s still allowed to be religious.
