(36,974 posts)1. LOL! I caught that too. Either Scott Brown doesn't know how to pronounce her name or ...
he has one hell of a funny accent

(51,737 posts)2. Isn't Brown a lawyer?!
I mean, how could he not know how to pronounce her name?
Tx4obama
(36,974 posts)3. Yes, he is a lawyer
Sotomayor was confirmed in the Senate August 2009, but Brown wasn't sworn in until February 2010,
So, Brown wasn't in the Senate during Sotomayor's confirmation hearing or for the full senate vote.
But it seems like he should have at least been watching on TV like the rest of us.
His expertise in real estate law.
So, my guess is that he probably doesn't know much about our current Supreme Court Justices.
