3) Scott Brown

It is not customary for TDH to go after specific people except in cases (like Scott Stapp, Kate Hudson, and Scott Stapp) where said people are so richly deserving of it.

That said, Scott Brown is more than just Scott Brown the person (possibly out of necessity, since by even the most generous allowances of the laws of thermodynamics, a self-contained Scott Brown would simply dissipate into nothingness under the considerable persistence of his own lack of integrity and substance).


Scott Brown, good American, whose daughters and integrity (SOLD!) are now for sale to the highest bidder

When we say "Scott Brown", we're actually referring to a whole culture of Scott Brown that somehow transcends the inherit douchebaggetry of phony daughter-whoring opportunists like Scott Brown that's even transparent enough for Glenn Beck to see through.

The Scott Brown in question, then, is actually the Scott Brown of the imagination; the one in which half of the Obama voters who voted for him did so because they believe the health care bill currently haunting the halls of congress is not progressive enough. The kind of Scott Brown that is elected to defeat said bill after having run on a bill-defeating platform (neglecting to mention his phoniness, and homophobia, and racism; the one supported by "Tea Party" folks whose windmill-chasing platform is staked firmly in the bottomless pit of the imaginary) and then presumably would disappear back into the imaginary recesses of imaginary-Scott-Brown-world, to be replaced by some kind of non-Scott Brownish entity who would not spend the rest of his time doing the bidding of special interest groups and corporate lobbyists and promoting an agenda of fear, which, of course, real-world-Scott-Brown will.

This sort of reasoning, it appears, is one now widely embraced by the American electorate.

But, having said that, we also despise the actual homophobic racist that is Scott Brown.
