Tea Party Lunatic of the Day 2/19




It didnt take long for Scott Brown to show his true lunatic colors. Someone needs to muzzle this guy ASAP. First it was his strange election night pimping of his own daughters on live TV. Now he apparently felt the need to compare Joe Stack's plane bombing to his frustrated Tea Party supporters.


From Fox News interview with Neil Cavuto

CAVUTO: We have a guy who is just ranting at the system, ranting at the IRS, ranting at big government, the need for health care, not the need for unions – I mean really crazy stuff. I would just be curious of your reaction to all that.


BROWN: Well it’s certainly tragic and I feel for the families obviously that are being affected by it. And I don’t know if it's related but I can just sense it's not only in my election but since being here in Washington people are frustrated. They want transparency. They want their elected officials to be accountable and open and, you know, talk about the things that are affecting their daily lives. So I am not sure if there is a connection. I certainly hope not, but we need to do things better.


CAVUTO: Um, you know, invariably, people are going to look at this type of incident Senator and say `Well that's where some of this populist rage gets you – um, isn’t that a bit extreme?


BROWN: Well, yeah, of course it's extreme. You don’t know anything about the individual. He could have had other issues, certainly. No one likes paying taxes obviously. But the way we are trying to deal with things and have been in the past, at least until I got here, is there is such a logjam in Washington and people want us to do better. They want us to help solve the problems that are affecting Americans in a very real way....


I thought I'd seen some political pandering in my day but Scott Brown definitely takes the lunatic cake on this one. Way to go Massachusetts voters. Hope you're proud of your new Senator.
