How Much Money Did The Insurance Companies Pay Willie Brown?

He shilled against the public option as the Democrat on Tweety.

Looks like the course is set for the weekend, kill the public option at all costs.

Motherfuckers.

I wonder what Willie Brown's personal worth is.

Who is Willie Brown?

Willie Lewis Brown, Jr. (born March 20, 1934) served over thirty years in the California State Assembly, fifteen years as its Speaker, and afterward, as the only African-American mayor of San Francisco. Under current California term limit law, no Speaker of the California State Assembly will ever have a longer tenure than Brown's record 15 years.<1> Brown is a member of the Democratic Party. The San Francisco Chronicle called Brown “one of San Francisco’s most notable mayors” that had “celebrity beyond the city’s boundaries.”<2>

. . . .

After leaving the mayor's office, Brown considered running for the State Senate but ultimately declined.<63> From January 2006 through September 2006, Brown co-hosted a morning radio show with comedian Will Durst on a local San Francisco Air America Radio affiliate. He also makes a weekly podcast. Brown also established The Willie L. Brown, Jr. Institute on Politics & Public Service, an unaffiliated nonprofit organization at San Francisco State University.<4> The center trains students for careers in municipal, county and regional governments. The center will be one of the first to focus on local government in the country. Brown gave the center's library a collection of his artifacts, videotapes and legislative papers from his forty years in public office. He is also planning to mentor students, teach a course on leadership, and recruit guest speakers.<4>
On February 5, 2008, Simon and Schuster released Brown's hardcover auto-biography, Basic Brown: My Life and Our Times, with collaborator P. J. Corkery. The book release coincided with California's Democratic Presidential Primary on the same day. On July 20, 2008, Brown began writing a column for the San Francisco Chronicle, a move that has drawn the ire of some Chronicle staffmembers and ethicists for the failure to disclose the multiple conflicts of interest Brown has.<64>
