Brown hits back at Kennedy for ‘joke’ candidacy dig

WASHINGTON, D.C. - A stung U.S. Sen. Scott Brown lashed out at U.S. Rep. Patrick Kennedy today for insulting his landmark win by calling his candidacy “a joke.”

Brown said Kennedy’s remarks are “mean spirited,” especially coming on the day he was celebrating being sworn into office.

“I was elected and the votes are certified and I’m here to do my job. It’s unfortunate that he would use mean-spirited comments like that at a time when we’re just trying to solve the problems of the Commonwealth,” Brown said today on his first full day on the job.

Pretty soon we’ll be sick of Brown’s face too!

No, never of his face! *wink*

Is it just me, or does Kennedy look like a complete slob in that picture?

Okay, I know he has big pants and shoes to fill...

I have had my differences with you, but I think this is something we can agree on...:)

One less Kennedy in public office brings our nation one step closer to rehabilitation...

Actually, I think it is d@mned civil, compared to Senator Kennedy’s comments in regard to Judge Bork - and certainly more likely to be closer to reality than were Ted’s comments...YMMV ;)

Indeed, removing this embarrassment is of paramount importance. I hope Buddy Cianci stays out of the race, because he’ll divide the opposition. Loughlin will hopefully be the one to rectify the mistake RI voters made back in ‘94 when they failed to elect Dr. Kevin Vigilante instead of Patches.

He’s a mess - you’d think a House member could at least get a suit jacket that covered his underlying shirt sleeves and mid-section.

Patrick is Ted’s son, but other than that your account of his time in “service” is pretty much accurate.

No, Micheal Kennedy was raping the baby sitter. He skied into a tree on Copper Bowl Trail. William Kennedy Smith raped the girl in Florida on a typical Easter weekend. I know, I know, so many Kennedy reprobates it’s hard to keep up.

Yes...this is how I see him also. Good Post!

Brown handles himself well in every situation...has an uncanny focus when people are speaking to him or asking questions, he hears them. Though he has stated quite clearly he will make mistakes, and he will, overall he presents himself in a manner we’d like to see more of in DC.

DC will try to wear him down so only time will tell if he can maintain the unusual level of confidence and convictions he has. Hopefully he will swing a little further to the right...we shall see.

You think that William K. Smith would
have gone thru a hugely public and
circus of a scandalous trial to take the
fall for his cousin ?

Hmmm ... anything’s possible in that
realm, but since he was also accused
of sexual assault years after that event,
I would find it doubtful.

Love God’s timing and placement of events.

I agree. as a fellow believer these past few years have dripped with Gods sense of humor and irony. Humanistic men that just don't get it. I especially love the blizzards during global warming, the reports from the fake weather stations in the former Soviet Union.
I appreciated the fall of the Soviet Union as well.

Caveat emptor or your sins will find you out.
