US Senator IS An Insurgent!
When you think of an "INSURGENT", is this what you see?

Well, if you are a member of the mainstream media, an insurgent looks like Scott Brown, the Republican who was just elected in Massachusetts in a major upset election:

I think it was a bad choice of words on their part.

I think this is a C+ post at best and would prefer that the OP refrain from abusing his moderator status and sending me SPAM whenever he makes a new thread that only he (and maybe a couple other trolls) believe to be of importance.
2nd - If you are going to send SPAM at least include within the e-mail itself, an option to be removed from e-mail "updates." ...It's just common courtesy.

Luscious it's a choice they almost always make... It's the same mindset that alows thenm to get away with labeling every REpublican an extreme right winger but all the Democrats are middle of the road.

Actually I think it's a good thing to have a Republican from Mass. In order for him to keep his seat he will soon be labled a "RINO" by his fellow Reps.

Dictionary definition of "insurgent:"
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/insurgent
Oh look, JB making a huge deal out of nothing again, what a surprise. Obviously the term insurgent can refer to someone whose act of rebellion is violent, but it does not exclusively mean that.
Shut your piehole, Muzzle boy.

If you want to be technical, the definition doesn't fit.

Re: US Senator IS An Insurgent!
It doesn't fit in either case really. Elections aren't rebellions.

Don't you feel like a jackass, Rugian?
In order for Scott Brown to fit into the relatively rare definition of this word, he would have to be a REPUBLICAN that goes AGAINST THE REPUBLICANS.
(like Arlen Specter)
Moron.
