Sen. Scott Brown (R-Mass.) lashed out at comedienne Kathy Griffin on Thursday for describing his daughters as "prostitutes." Brown strongly condemned remarks Griffin made on CNN in which she mocks Brown's daughters, Ayla and Arianna. “People can call me any name they want, but families are off limits," Brown said.
