He's STILL WORKING for the WAR PARTY!!
Politics is shit fooleys for 'murkn consumption!
"Senator Specter bolts GOP; Cites changing views, campaign Democrats could get supermajority" by Sasha Issenberg, Globe Staff | April 29, 2009
WASHINGTON - Specter smiled as he declared that Obama had promised to campaign and raise money on his behalf and that Senate majority leader Harry Reid intended to recognize the seniority Specter has accrued as a Republican, which could eventually make him chairman of the powerful Appropriations Committee....
Oh, I'm sure the DEMOCRATS on the committee are going to LOVE THAT!!
Yeah, just CUT IN LINE, Arlen!!!!
Specter said that he had been negotiating with Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell to host a Washington event at which Democratic leaders would formally endorse his reelection....
Democrats had long dreamed of reconverting Specter, who was a member of their party before enlisting as a Republican to mount an insurgent challenge to the Philadelphia Democratic machine during a 1965 campaign for district attorney. "I didn't leave the Democratic Party," Specter repeated to throngs from a flatbed truck throughout that race. "The party left me."
Maybe the PROBLEM is YOU, Arlen!!
He sounds like an ALCOHOLIC who is ALWAYS BLAMING SOMEONE ELSE, doesn't he?
BOTH PARTIES LEFT YOU, huh?
You know they say when it is a PERSON in that situation?
That maybe YOU are the PROBLEM, NOT THEM!!!!!!!!
Specter said yesterday that his decision was driven by a combination of greater ideological solidarity with Democrats and the pragmatic consideration that he would have trouble holding on to his seat in the current environment....
Oh, it was ALL POLITICS, was it?
Specter said his switch would become official Tuesday, when he expected to sit with the Democrats during the parties' weekly caucus luncheons. Yesterday, he ate with the Republicans, as he has for 28 years, and said his peers were "polite" when he explained his change of loyalty.
Lieberman eats with DemocraPs, Specter eats with Repuglicans, what's the difference.
Arlen was certainly rewarded for coming up with the magic bullet theory, 'eh?
"Senator [Thad] Cochran said at least he wouldn't have to go to Erie any more to campaign for me," Specter recounted, referring to a Mississippi Republican and a dismal lakeside city in the northwestern corner of Pennsylvania.
Nothing like taking an INSULT from the BOSTON PAPER, 'eh, Philly?
Is your newspaper closing at the end of the week?
--more--"
