The king and queen and me

Democrats Mock Scott Brown’s Claim of Secret Meetings with Royalty 

By KATHARINE Q. SEELYE, NYT

That Senate campaign in Massachusetts that is supposed to be the premier Senate race in the country? Its highlight this week was a gaffe by Senator Scott P. Brown in which he said he had been busy holding secret meetings with kings and queens.

In a radio interview in which Mr. Brown responded to criticism that he was not focused on substantive issues, he said: “Each and every day that I’ve been a United States senator, I’ve been either discussing issues, meeting on issues, and secret meetings with kings and queens and prime ministers and business leaders and military leaders. Talking, voting, working on issues every single day. So I don’t quite know what to say.”

Democrats demanded a list of the royal confabs; a Brown spokesman said later that Mr. Brown had misspoken when he said kings and queens.

It's too bad that Brown is not a Cherokee. Liberals seem to ignore missteps and even out right lies as long as one is Cherokee.
