Wish you could “ZOT” the so-called Republicans who voted to repeal DADT.

Am I the only one who remembers all the threads a year ago when we were being assured that Scott Brown was a genuine "conservative"? In fact, I distinctly recall reading that he was downright "presidential."

You recall correctly. You know, usually I think that Mike Savage guy on the radio is kind of a kook, BUT, I've got to give him credit; He saw through Brown from the word go.

Grab the popcorn. This thread will go into FReeper legend, like the Guiliani-zot thread.

I remember those threads and was one of the ones that was wishing he'd be elected if for no other reason than the fact that it was Kennedy's seat. Must admit, that deep in my heart I figured he'd show his true colors. He and the other RINO's have done just that.

This is a case of being careful what you wish for because it may come true. In my case, it'll NEVER happen again.

No, you're not the only one who remembers that disgusting bout of undeserved infatuation on FR.

I didn't know a whole lot about Scott Brown at the time, and was glad that anyone who called themselves a Republican was giving a serious challenge to the slimy lib, Martha Coakley, but when folks started saying, "Scott Brown for president!", I just about lost it.

I see the same thing happening now with John Bolton and Herman Cain. I just wish folks would check their enthusiasm until they've actually vetted a politician enough to know who they really are. As time has shown, Scott Brown is no conservative. That should be a strong lesson for our side.

There are always some outliers, some who will believe anything.

Most on FR recognized that Scott Brown was not a conservative, but AS conservative as one could expect from Massachusetts.
