Thoughts on Hypocrisy
Some have claimed that Sen. Scott Brown is being hypocritical in opposing the Affordable Health Care reform legislation while his 23 year-old daughter benefits from it by being on his health care insurance. I say just the opposite. Isn't it principled to vote your conscience even though you would lose a benefit? And I doubt if those opposing the Bush tax cut failed to take advantage of its reduced tax. So I defend Brown on this, while strongly supporting the election of Elizabeth Warren.
