Like so many of his fellow Republicans, Scott Brown has been trying to partake of the crazed energy of the Tea Party Movement(tm), while also denying affiliation with the "movement's" inherent craziness. This is particularly important given that Brown is trying to become a U.S. Senator from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, which, though home to the original Tea Party back in 1773, is not exactly the epicenter of the loud but mindless Pet Rock Craze that today invokes its memory.
Today the man trying to break the Senate's Male Model Barrier got caught with his perfectly manicured, uncalloused little mitts right in the Tea-Party Crazy Jar.
When asked by local reporters on Wednesday about his feelings about the Tea Party Movement, Brown said (mendaciously, as we shall soon see) that he was unfamiliar with the Movement.
No sooner had TPM reported this claim, in all its implausibility, than a bright-eyed reader quickly falsified it, by looking at Brown's own website, and discovering not one but two pictures of Brownie addressing official Tea Party events in Massachusetts.
For Brown's sake, I hope people in Massachusetts don't hear about him lying to reporters in an effort to conceal his real political identity from the voters.
