Republican Scott Brown is p****d at Idea of Registering Welfare Recipients to Vote
It seems now that voting is only a bougie thing, not an American thing. At least that’s what Sen. Scott Brown (R-MA) seems to think, since he’s peeved at the idea
of welfare recipients being registered to vote.
What set Brown off was the state of Massachusetts mailing voter registration forms to people who were not given the opportunity to register to vote when they signed up to receive welfare benefits. That was a violation of federal law, and the state is making up for it by mailing out registration forms to those who weren’t given the opportunity to register at the time of enrollment.
That has Sen. Brown p****d because a) his opponent, Elizabeth Warren, has a daughter who is the chair of a voter outreach organization, and b) poor people are just less than middle class people, and the more poor people are registered, the more Brown thinks he will have to make up for them by registering middle class and wealthy people. Here is Brown in his own words:
I want every legal vote to count, but it’s outrageous to use taxpayer dollars to register welfare recipients as part of a special effort to boost one political party over another. This effort to sign up welfare recipients is being aided by Elizabeth Warren’s daughter and it’s clearly designed to benefit her mother’s political campaign. It means that I’m going to have to work that much harder to get out my pro-jobs, pro-free enterprise message.
Brown may be right about poor people not supporting his candidacy though. Since Brown only works on behalf of Wall St., why should he expect people who are struggling and on welfare to cast a vote on his behalf? They won’t. He should be concerned about that.

our poor people are citizens too and should be treated with the same respect!
For some reason I always thought it was 1 man or woman 1 vote. I did not know that if you were on welfare you could not vote. Now I have to find some people on welfare to make sure they are registered. Thanks you Mr Brown for keeping us all informed of your problem mind.
He is looking to benefit from the rich and the stupidly filthy rich so he is really a hypocrite in all of his statement. People need to vote because it is their right.
And to think my taxes pay the salaries of these ignorant uppity a..holes. Everyone in these united states DESERVE the right to vote! Who died and left you in charge of who should or should not vote? If the Republicans got off their a.. and supported our wonderful President, then maybe there wouldn’t be so many citizens on welfare. Without the vote of the people you wouldn’t have your job. Perhaps someone else should have it. I’m sure they would be more concerned about the plight of the people in MA and America.
what is Brown worried about, he has Wall Street, and Bloomberg in his pocket, so he doesn’t have to worry about ever
human being able to vote, which we as American Citizens, are entitled to, wheather we are poor or rich.
Why are there scums like him in a position of power anyway? We need to get people like him out of the Senate. No more freeloading Senators and anyone else that so called run this country. Scott Brown can kiss my BIG smooth a**e.
He Is Angry Because He Is A Racist Piece Of Trash. He Know A Lot Of African Americans Is On Welfare And If They Can’t Vote That Will Help Racist Romney And Hurt Our REAL MAN President Obama. I Am Sick And Tired Of These Racist Pieces Of Trash.
Really, more whites than blacks are on welfare. He is just upset that the poor have a “say” that he has no control over! He should be worried.
It’s a d**n shame, but it’s the poor who try to maintain a job, pay the bulk of the taxes and take the abuse from the arrogant aristocracy like Brown and his cohorts. Wall Street, the House and the Senate are all a lie and a joke. This country belongs to the people and it is the POOR who have the majority vote. We are the 99%. Be careful of what comes out of your mouth Brown. It’ll come back to bite your in our rich a_ _.
It is our responsibility as citizens to get out there and get this Bas_ _ _ _. out of there. Let’s do this.
Why be p****d. Go out and register some as well. Stop crying and act , it’s the Democratic way
