Remember this?
Each and every day that I’ve been a United States senator, I’ve been discussing issues, meeting on issues, in secret meetings and with kings and queens and prime ministers and business leaders and military leaders, talking, voting, working on issues every single day
Brown’s staff later had to walk back Brown’s remarks and said that he misspoke, MA Dems released a video where Brown used the same language repeatedly on the campaign trail. Brown campaign’s response? No comment.
Now we get this (via the Globe):
I can name a litany of Democratic-sponsored bills that I’ve done that never would have passed hadn’t it been for me, and the president had called me, and vice president calls me, and Secretary Clinton calls asking for my vote all the time.
Brown’s campaign now says that Scott only had one conversation with Obama, and as it turns out Biden and Clinton don’t really call him all the time.
Really? I was wondering how Scott is able to get any work done, he’s spending much of his day talking to Obama, Biden, Clinton, kings, queens, prime ministers, business leaders and military leaders.
Not sure what’s going on with Brown, but it’s becoming increasingly difficult to take him seriously.
Why in the world would a Secretary of State call, asking for Brown’s vote? Is this a side topic to a conversation asking if he’s available to meet with the King of Siam or the Queen of Freedonia?
were accounts that both Biden and Clinton made calls. I suspect they were to Senators with higher levels of influence in the Republican party.
I thught Brown’s comments when he was first elected almost equated his position to Obama’s – rather than realizing he was the juniormost Senator there was.
I can see instances where a SoS might be calling Senators to round up votes.
Mitt Romney’s lies and Scott Brown’s lies.
Mitt Romney’s lies are all about helping himself out in any given situation. He’ll tell the IRS and SEC he’s done with Bain, while letting Bain investors think he’s very much still there (or is actually very much there).
He’ll say he’s not with Bain when Bain did bad things, but was with Bain when Bain did those bad things, when it came time to talk with the group that decided eligibility for elections in Massachusetts… because that’s what it took to get on the ballot.
Brown’s lies are altogether different. They come off as delusional. They’re about self-aggrendizement, making himself seem important, not actually about trying to reward himself. It’s like he actually believes these things as he’s saying them.
At the end of the day, though, they are both habitual liars. It’s time the media pay attention to them.
that there are no limits to individual achievement and no excuses to justify indifference. From an early age, I was taught that success is measured not in material accumulations, but in service to others. I was encouraged to join causes larger than myself, to pursue positive change through a sense of mission, and to stand up for what I believe.”
Let’s list them.

The more I see and hear him, the more he reminds me of a student council member who took the gig at the urging of his parents to enhance his college applications… and not for much else.
its always good to call with kings and queens.
I talk regularly to the Pope, astronauts, Big Papi, Hilary Clinton, and Princess Maxima of the Netherlands, and Brian Wilson texts me all the time!
