Sherrod Campbell Brown, born November 9, 1952 (age 71), is a pro-abortion[1] Democratic Senator from Ohio (2007-), serving with George Voinovich. He was also a member of the House of Representatives (1993-2007), Ohio Secretary of State (1983-1991), and an Ohio State Representative (1974-1982). As a Senator, he is noted for being mostly liberal, although he fakes conservatism on occasion to fool his overwhelming conservative state. Brown is a member of the socialist Progressive Caucus. The non-partisan National Journal has ranked U.S. Senator Sherrod Brown (D-OH) as the U.S. Senate’s “Most Liberal” member. [2]
Brown is a champion of ACORN and was once a spokesman in their propaganda videos. Brown is tight with George Soros as evident of a personal campaign contribution from him. [3] He wrote an Op-Ed piece for USA Today were he attacks the Tea Party movement as faux populism and extremism. [4]
On March 2nd, Sherrod Brown gave a speech on the Senate floor defending labor unions. He would attack Republicans by comparing them to other horrible governments that were opposed to labor unions; saying that dictators like Adolf Hitler and Joseph Stalin opposed them. [5] Unknown to Brown, Hitler and Stalin both championed policies Sherrod Brown supports such as universal healthcare, expanded animal welfare laws, support of healthy, organic foods and vegetarianism, a minimum wage, progressive taxation, and tight gun control. [6]
Votes
According to the leftwing Americans for Democratic Action (ADA), Brown votes with the liberal agenda 95% of the time. Some votes below:
- July 1996 he voted against a bill defining marriage as “a legal union between one man and one woman as husband and wife.”
- April 2005 he supported “the transportation of a minor across state lines to obtain an abortion without the consent of a parent or legal guardian.”
- April 2005 he voted against allowing oil drilling in Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) in Alaska.
- September 2007 he supports Federal funds distributed to organizations that support the practices of coercive abortion or involuntary sterilization.
- Brown voted for the Stimulus, the Omnibus spending bill and ObamaCare.
Like a good socialist, he always votes for massive tax hikes.
February 2010, it was reported that a "clean technology" bill sponsored by Brown -- the "Investments for Manufacturing Progress and Clean Technology Act of 2009" -- was drafted with the help of the Apollo Alliance.
