Scott Brown, A NEW Republican

This morning I called Barbara Anderson from Citizens for Limited Taxation, CNHT’s counterpart in Massachusetts, to congratulate her and CLT on Scott Brown’s election. I know CLT has worked with Senator Brown and they were whole heartedly supporting him. Here is part of a statement and his rating by CLT. For more on Senator Brown check out the CLT web site at: cltg.org

Over the years, Scott Brown has filed legislation for Citizens for Limited Taxation on tax cuts and tax limitation. For anyone who asks you, his Citizens for Limited Taxation Legislative Ratings through his eleven years in the Massachusetts House and Senate are as follows:

By Legislative Session
1999-2000	Scott Brown (R-Wrentham)	75%
2001-2002	Scott Brown (R-Wrentham)	100%
2003-2004	Scott Brown (R-Wrentham)	97%
2005-2006	Scott Brown (R-Wrentham)	73%
2007-2008	Scott Brown (R-Wrentham)	93%
2009 -	Scott Brown (R-Wrentham)	100%

 Barbara says they have some more good candidates in Massachusetts(e)* waiting in the wings.

And by the way, 25% is what most Democrats get for a CLT rating.

* The Coakley spelling of Massachusetts ends in e just like potatoe.

Ed, I wouldn't call Scott a "NEW" Republican. I'd call him a REAL Republican.

Real Republicans have always been against bloated spending and out of control government growth. While the national party may have forgotten that, you yourself prove it every day pointing to those who spend without thought just as Scott fought every day he was in office and I fought during my time on the Merrimack budget committee.

Real Republicans say no to unchecked spending, there's nothing new about that.


ooops, wait I forgot... your a registered Democrat.

Bwaaaahahahahaha! Say no to unchecked spending? None of the GOP seemed to do that during the Bush administration.

Lay off the crackpipe, boyos.

Raybo:

And they were tossed from office for it...Bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.

Your next.

[Rick Barnes]

Pinko, Ed's right. Democrats blasted Bush and company for out of control spending and won using that as a campaign issue.... now rather then controlling spending the democrats are spending even more. What do you think voters are going to do? I think we're already seeing what they'll do.

Still fantasizing about Ray? Unrequited love/lust has made you an angry, bitter, little man.

Ray:

You know you don't have to comment on my endless examples of municipal and national blogging genius.

I don't even visit liberal blogs, let alone comment on them. So why are you showing up here so often?

Are you really this lonely?

Flights to Amsterdam are at rock bottom prices - get it, rock bottom?

Go on, take a vacation. There is nothing you can do to stop the debacle in November.

Relax. Go away.

It will make me so happy in my bitterness.
