Remember when the GIN declared a moratorium on calling people from the Bay State “Massholes” in our cautious optimism over Scott Brown’s election to the Senate? (link) Well, that’s officially been lifted, now that Scott Brown is going to be “that guy” and vote for half the Obama platform, as he did with Financial Reform (link). All these weasels in the Senate think that if they switch over on one or two issues it will be ok, and they can be popular with their newspapers and such. I’ll explain why voting “yes” on anything is voting yes for everything in the next post.
Well bad news, because if a few weasels switch on each part of the platform, the whole thing goes, and we are no longer a republic.
Here’s the Heritage Foundation’s page on “financial reform” (link).
Thanks a lot, Senator Brown. You’re dead to those of us who supported your candidacy. Mort. And to the people of Massachusetts, you’re still Massholes.
