When T. Kennedy was elected to the Senate in a special election, he was sworn in the next day. So why is Brown being sworn in "early"?

To: La Lydia
Is that a rhetorical question?

Earlier than expected.
Brown threw down the gauntlet! Dared them to try to delay!
This is almost as good as Sarah making Rahmbo grovel and apologize.

Brown should ask Biden how he liked that new James Cameron Movie. What was that movie called again?
Too bad he has to be sworn in by a F**king Retard” like Biden huh? Thank you Rahn Emanuel.

I think the dems heard an ominous rumbling sound from the hinterlands and figured that they best not stall any longer.
We're making progress, they are starting to listen!

No by my calculations, 21 days late. If Teddy was the next day after elections Feb. 11 is 21 days late.
All votes in between should be canceled and DO OVER!

Maybe the Rats were hoping Obama would deploy SB’s National Guard unit to Iraq/Afghansistan/Other Killing Field.
I would not rule this out.
Yes, I am serious.

He’s being sworn in tomorrow, that’s 15 days (from after the morning after the election) longer than it took to swear in Teddy.

Scott Brown finally gets his seat. The RATS however cheated and did something terrible in the meanwhile.
This is Paul Kirk. If you are an American he ripped you off for over $6000. Paul Kirk is the temporary Senator for Massachusetts. He is the senator , illegally, because the law was changed, ex-post facto , to let the Governor rather than the people of Massachusetts select him. Even After Scott Brown won Paul Kirk continued to vote in the Senate, doubly illegal now because Kirk should have lost his vote after that election. Paul Kirk voted along with 59 other RATS on January 28 to rise the debt limit 1.9 Trillion dollars. A vote that would have failed without him. If dollars bills were laid end to end starting from the sun this would go past the orbit of Mars. That is $6258 for every man woman and child in America. Perhaps the largest theft in the history of man and it has attracted no more attention then a local car wreck.
Speaking of wrecks, this may be the final blow that plunges America into bankruptcy. Needless to say this will cripple America's ability to defend itself and allow all kinds of evil now laying in wait to wreck havoc upon the world. Congradulations Paul, the new decade is only 28 days and you have perhaps succeeded in becoming one of its most evil men.
