Senator Scott Brown (R-MA) surprised Massachusetts and the rest of the US when he won the Senatorial seat formerly held by the Liberal Lion– Senator Edward Kennedy. Recently, Brown was caught on video thanking right-wing billionaire David Koch for his financial support in the last election and asking for more help when he runs for re-election in 2012. In the above video, Koch beams as Brown, who ran as a “different kind of politician” (AKA, not a beltway insider), grovels.

    It wasn’t Ted Kennedy’s seat. It belonged to the people of Massachusetts.

    At least he asked the Hard working man for financial support  instead of taking it like the democrats do through union dues and such.

      Hard working man …

      Ha!  While it’s not a crime to be rich, it is not a qualification for sainthood either.  More often than not it has nothing to do with working hard.

    I do believe much attention is being put on these two billionaires who have internationa tentacles which is no doubt one of their methods of avoid taxes and now they see a way to buy government influence they are the money behind the tea party/teapublicans, money has always tried to buy politiicians its the american way, thing is when they get caught the politicians end up in ethics trouble, some in prison and they ought to indict and throw the one doing the bribing in jail as well sends a good message especially if in addition they fine then 100 times what the damaged our economy via corrupting government officials they would see a immediate slowing of these folks buying illegal access to government!
