Scott Brown. Remember him?
The Senator from the People’s Republic of Massachusetts is at it again. It was only a year and a half ago; he was the darling of our Tea Party movement. He excited the Tea Party movement and conservatives everywhere. Tea Party members gave him money, worked his campaign and even did phone banks for him from hundreds of miles away from the Bay State. He became number 41. He was the 41st Republican Senator and his presence denied Democrats the ability to break a Republican filibuster. Conservatives were elated. The celebrations knew no bounds. Even the manufacturer of a line of fountain pen inks created new ink that they called “Brown 41” in his honor.
Brown was immediately compared to Reagan and there were even suggestions he run for President. There were a few of us who understood what we were getting. We were getting a 41st Republican Senator. We were not getting another Reagan.
Unfortunately, for those of us who knew what Scott Brown really was, he has lived down to our expectations.
In his latest sell out of those who put him in, he wrote a letter to the Republican leadership, repeating the tired old liberal line that the budget cuts the GOP is pushing, disproportionately hurt “low income families and seniors.” Translation, let’s not do anything to the welfare state.
Brown goes further to object to “wholesale reductions in spending.”
What is it about Massachusetts? It is a nice state and most of the people I have met from there are fairly decent people. Why must they continue to send lunatics to Congress?
Memo to Scott Brown. If you think budget cuts “disproportionately affect “low income families and seniors,” what do you think is going to happen when we have an economic collapse?
Memo to Scott Brown. Do you want to see our future? Go look at Greece or Portugal or Spain. They have a debt crisis. How do you think they got into a debt crisis? Since you were once a model and models are not known for their heavy duty thinking capabilities, I’ll give you a hint. Debt gets you into a debt crisis. Massive debt is the realization of Margaret Thatcher’s words, when she said, “the problem with socialism is eventually, you run out of other people’s money.”
Brown is a politician, and that is meant in the worst sense of the word politician. He knows self-preservation and self-promotion. He has aligned himself with the RINO crowd, which has no beliefs, other than getting reelected and appeasing whatever base he thinks will help him get reelected. From a crass point of view, that is working. Rumors are the Democrats are not even going to put a top-flight candidate against him in 2012 because his ratings within that state are so good.
So Scott Brown used the Tea Party to get elected. Now he no longer needs this movement and we are tossed under the bus.
The Democrats will not give Scott Brown an opponent. Why should they? He votes like a Democrat. Perhaps the Massachusetts Tea Party will step up with someone to challenge him in 2012.
That, unlike Scott Brown, is not an April fool’s joke.

Wrong,
MoveOn.org and SEIU here is in an all out campaign to move Brown to the left, this includes funding for phone banks to mail factories. What national support do we have up here on the right?

I don't believe we need to watch him any more. He has proved what he is and it is time for him to go.

Thanks, Jim. This is what I sent him:
You are a dismal disappointment. Why don't you just switch parties? I suspected you from the first, but I hoped you would not turn out to be another RINO, but here you are, opposing budget cuts.
Sorry I voted for you. It won't happen again.

Did that, here is my letter
Senator Brown
For my concerns you seem to have a very limited understanding, but I liked the nation better when it allowed a person with drive and ambition to make something of himself.
http://www.teapartynation.com/forum/topics/scott-brown-remember-him
I am an immigrant, came here on my way back home from what I can only describe as a multi-year world wide adventure, with no intention of not returning home to Germany. I came here with very little, realized just what extraordinary nation this is, remained here for my productive life. I gave up my German citizenship, only to be disappointed in the decay this nation suffered during those 40 years I've been here.
And you, Sir, represent and promote that decay of America's future.
Instead of inspiring those that can lift up America, you discourage them, make them feel like the downtrodden by discouraging them to even try to lift themselves out of government dependency.
You are in other words, a typical Democrat, only became a Republican because the favorite Democrat position for Kennedy's replacement was already taken. Then used your comparative unknown political history to masquerade as a conservative to game for conservatives support.
Just do not expect the TEA party to support you again, when the Kennedy family brings their handpicked successor to challenge you for their, the Kennedy Seat in 2015.
Like in the children's book story, you are sawing off the tree branch you are sitting on, and don't even realize it.

Superb letter Mr. Glockler!
But, it is a shame that fine Americas see the need to write such scolding things to our government. Those letters result from actions which come from a government separating itself from and turning against "We The People".
