Brown now wants to be the anti-corruption Senator

[karynnj]

He is co-sponsoring a bill that would expand the list of reasons that Congresspeople would lose pensions. Needless to say Glenn Johnson does not mention who wrote the existing law and called it the Cunningham Law after Duke Cunningham.

Brown wants them to lose pensions for things done AFTER leaving the Congress. http://www.boston.com/Boston/politicalintelligence/2011/07/brown-expands-anti-corruption-push/GCsqGQU7Ncucny2zqri4sK/

It does seem funny how often Brown has gotten press for announcing he would do some things that Kerry already did. (The strangest saga was when he got tons of press for co-sponsoring 2 Small Business programs - both originally Kerry/Snowe and then with no real expanation filibustering them.) He also has copied some of Kerry's legislation for returning soldiers and veterans.
