The Rehabilitation of Snowe, Collins, and Specter
Self | 2/13/09 | Natural Law

Posted on 02/13/2009 5:14:59 PM PST by Natural Law

Now that Specter, Snowe, and Collins have collected their 40 pieces of silver we can expect them to begin rehabilitating their images before the next election cycle. They will be humble and contrite. They will claim they were acting in our best interests and were stabbed in the back by their honorable collegues across the aisle. They will swear they have seen the light and that they will toe the conservative GOP line if we will only forgive and reelect them. They might even make a few votes and speeches in favor of conservative causes. Don't buy it.

Like the elephant symbol of the GOP I will never forget. I will work hard to support their opponent in bothe the GOP primaries AND the general election even if it means contributing to a Democrat.

I also pledge to boycott any conservattive program or publication that participates in their effort to rehabilitate themselves or otherwise gives them a platform to expplain their actions. I will also withhold any support for the RNC if punitive measures are not taken and will not support any RNC candidate that fails to denounce them by name. Who is with me?

It will matter? The reality is that all 3 of those will be replaced with Dems, regardless of anything the GOP does. The people of PA and ME like libs.

The only Rehabilitation is Ex-Communication.

That is exactly the contrition routine Anal Spinchter went thru before his last tough primary re-election campaign, so you are right — expect a repeat performance.

I would respect McConnell much more if he threw them out of the GOP. Not only did they betray the party and the country, but they provided BO with the fig leaf of “bipartisanship,” tiny as it was.

I cannot believe three Republicans voted to bankrupt our nation under the Messiahic Kenyan’s direction.

Pelosi, Reid, Levin, et al are basking the former glow only a Kremlin official could understand.

We are f’ed.

Yes, but how many times on how many issues have we gone though this with them, and they always get re-elected.

"The only Rehabilitation is Ex-Communication."

Move their desks across the aisle.

Collins needs to rest up from the ankle pain she got from jumping in front of so many TV cameras to proclaim her wonderfulness.

Actions have consequences. I am tired of conservatives behaving like battered wives. It is about time the GOP grew a pair...of sharp elbows.

They've already claimed they were doing it in the best interests of the country. The best approach is to dump the OP(formerly the GOP) and support a party that reflects Conservative values.

I’m with you too but I started earlier as far as denouncing the GOP when they called for more donations. They felt our heat since by not doing their duty, they sold our son (serving in the US Army 10 yrs) down the river during his last two deployments.

I have no use for the pathetic GOP cowards in Congress, the congresscriminals.

You should direct your efforts against Maine. The state is small and vulnerable. No Vacations there, no lobsters.

The lobsters are said to be contaminated with Abelaria and can cause sickness.

If Maine fels our pain, there might be change.

"Yes, but how many times on how many issues have we gone though this with them, and they always get re-elected."

That is why I directed these actions at those who would and have indirectly participated in their previous rehabilitations. If Hannity, Beck, Levin, or even Rush let them on to explain themselves....click!

The GOP should take swift action by kicking the three out of the party. They can’t be trusted and have done a gross disservice to their country.
