Scott Brown Backs Obama Recess Appointment Of Richard Cordray

[White Eagle]

Scared much? Facing an election with an opponent such as Elizabeth Warren, Brown goes against the GOP's recommendations of crying out loud about the recess appointment. Brown isn't crying yet.

Scott Brown Backs Obama Recess Appointment Of Consumer Finance Watchdog Richard Cordray

WASHINGTON -- Bucking his party's leadership, Sen. Scott Brown (R-Mass.) Wednesday expressed his support for President Obama's decision to name Richard Cordray head of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau in a recess appointment that evaded a Republican blockade of the nomination.

Senate Republicans had vowed to stop Cordray's appointment until Obama agreed to water down the authority of the new watchdog agency. To stop him from using the constitutional option of a recess appointment while the Senate was adjourned, they've been holding "pro forma" sessions where no business is done, but the chamber is technically working.

GOP leaders bitterly accused the president of arrogance and overreach. But Brown, facing a tough election challenge from the architect of the CFPB, Elizabeth Warren, decided that their actions were the bigger problem.

If I lived in Massachusetts, I would vote for Scott Brown.

He's a pro-gay Republican. He was one of the Republican senators who voted to repeal "Don't ask Don't tell."

Plus, he's really handsome.... He also has served in the U.S. military.

latest poll has Brown down 49 to 42 to Ms. Warren

he didn't want that gap to expand

or maybe he really believes it

Jay Queer, no matter where you lived you'd vote for a lamp post if it said Republican.

As for Cordray, Warren, Brown: I'll settle for the support and leave the dogs alone.

Not at all.

As JUB user JustBelieve_18 can attest, I have gone onto another website and voiced my discontent with Republicans who are anti-gay.

I don't support Republicans who are anti-gay, or who resort to anti-gay baiting. If a Republican candidate or politician is "pro-gay" or at the very least is willing to stay neutral when it comes to LGBT issues, I'm willing to listen to them.

For a Republican, voting for the repeal of "Don't as Don't tell" is a pro-gay position.

That's the difference between me, and a lot of the other people in the gay community. For most of you guys, it doesn't matter how "pro-gay" a Republican can strive to be -- you will never vote for them anyway, not even if they were an openly gay Republican.

I think it's ironic, because the majority of users on JUB and in the LGBT community would vote for a lamp post if it had a "D" for "Democrat" after its name.

In a race between an openly gay Republican and a straight Democrat, I would most likely vote for the gay Republican.

I'm absolutely amazed how you continually can be the (self-appointed) spokesman for large groups of people that you've never even met. I would not vote for a lamp post, but I would vote for a fire hydrant if it were covered with a sufficient amount of urine.

*fail again*

Keep trying.

Back to the topic... I think Mr. Brown might be seeing the "handwriting on the wall". However, anything can happen in 11 months. Who knows? Maybe Elizabeth Warren was born in Kenya!

I'm sure they were thrilled by your pearls of wisdom. How many of the swine have you converted?
Sort of like here. Probably none.

There should be a simple test: if there isn't a quorum in the building, they're not in session, no matter what shenanigans they're pulling.

It would have meant something if you'd done it as a Republican instead of pretending to be a Democrat.

All that did was piss off those tight white Republican cunts who run that blog site and make them hate Democrat fags even more.
