Senator Arlen Sphincter(RINO-PA), one of the troika of turncoat liberal Republican Senators to vote for Obama's unconstitutional power grab, was jeered yesterday in his home state...and confronted to his face.What can you say about a guy who did his part to make sure that the GOP can be partially blamed for this Trillion-Dollar Turd, and helping Democrats avoid being held responsible for their own actions.

“People get the government they deserve” Joseph D’Maistre
Gang, we HAD a shot at cleaning these places out this last election and, to borrow a phrase from the klintoon White House, WE BLEW IT!!!
While I, like many of you, am saddened that McCain and Palin couldn’t keep the Marxist Obamessiah out of the White House, let’s try to keep things in some kind of rational perspective: ACORN elected a president and vice-president, NOT a monarch.
For years, I’ve been amazed at this idiotic quadrennial fascination with the beauty contest known as the (cue the trumpet fanfare) “PRESIDENTIAL RACE.” Our inattention and/or apparent desire for a king or a strong man dictatorship has allowed our system to morph to the present quasi-monarchy from its original foundations as a representative REPUBLIC.
People, the most important thing we can remember about all of this is that the Founders constructed the system to put – AND KEEP — the KEYS TO THE FEDERAL CASH REGISTER ARE IN CONGRESS and current Gang of 535 could bring this out-of-control government spending and the steady usurpation of our freedoms to a screeching halt tomorrow at noon — IF they wanted to. Attila the Hun could occupy the White House and without the dough to hire the bureaucrats, buy the desks and computers, etc., etc. ad nauseum, Mr. Hun would be hamstrung. (See Article 1, Section 7 of the now largely moribund Constitution for details.)
But they DON’T — for a number of reasons: (And I cite the tax situation as but one example of the problem. Don’t get me started on the ENERGY thing!)
1. They understand the need to vacuum the excess FRAUDS (Federal Reserve Accounting Unit Denominators) — there are no “dollars” circulating now! — out of circulation BEFORE the bulk of the dumb masses (say it really fast for maximum effect) catch on to the resultant inflation. If you question that statement, ask yourself why else would a criminal enterprise (the federal government) having the power to “create” “money” with the stroke of a pen NEED YOURS every April 15th?
2. The current Gang of 535 understands the need for the massive tax code (so-called because it is written in code by gnomes chained to posts in the cellars of K Street lobbying firms and understood only by their keepers) to reward their friends, punish their enemies and keep the rest of us under their thumbs with threats of draconian punishments should we run afoul of it. It is impossible to NOT run afoul of it.
3. While the dumb masses rant about the abusive practices of this top criminal enterprise’s subsidiary criminal enterprise (the IRS), members of the Gang can pose and posture for the cameras from time to time and declare that “something MUST be done to reign in the abuses of the IRS,” NOTHING WILL BE DONE until we clean house on Capitol Hill and get back to the HONEST, CONSTITUTIONAL MONEY called for at Art.1, Sect. 10. They’ve been playing a rigged game of 3 card-Monte with us for so long – and getting away with it – that, as Herman Cain’s book title declares – “They Think You’re STUPID.” And, hell, for MOST of the dumb masses, they’re right.
And THAT process starts in YOUR STATE and CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT by finding and supporting decent candidates — at ALL levels — who will go to YOUR state capitol and Malfunction Junction and do that house cleaning. Not marching on Washington...not sending “money” to the RNC (LOL!)...not writing poison pen letters to these current jerks...but THROWING OUT THE CURRENT JERKS and doing it as many times as necessary to get it done.
A good news in the viability of this approach is that the controlled so-called national mainstream media have far less impact on these widely separated congressional races making it easier to get some good guys elected.
The bad news is that I can speak from personal experience about how the national PARTIES will survey all the contested congressional races and if they DO find a candidate they do not or think they cannot control running on their side, they’ll offer a “consultant” from headquarters to come in and ASSIST the campaign. In at least 4 cases with which I am familiar, the Republican National Committee TORPEDOED those campaigns so a good guy who might be more incined to harken to the Constitution before toeing the party line didn’t make it to D.C.
And for you who, like a sad number of the dumb masses, THINK YOUR GUY IS OK, go to THROWTHEMOUT at

for your guy’s voting record on taxes, spending or your personal hot button issues. You might be in for an unpleasant surprise.
I often get the strong sense that the American people have some sick and sophomoric yearning for a new ROYAL FAMILY or BENEVOLENT KING to make their lives what they themselves feel incapable of making them without some nanny-state sovereign. Throughout history, with few exceptions conspicuous because of their rarity, those systems nearly always become malignant and freedom founders and eventually fails. With the exception of America – the IDEA, not the place – most men who have walked the earth have lived as slaves.
As opportunities afford themselves (and this is one), I simply attempt to remind my fellow citizens of that history and what lies ahead if they continue in their ignorance of that history.
I could go on for volumes but you get the idea.
One final thought: With the exception of the guys who pass muster at THROWTHEMOUT, RE-ELECT NOBODY!!!!!
Standing by for a record breaking flaming by the fanatics.
Lord Sphincter says he has to do what he thinks best for PA. Regardless of his constituents voting against the bill 100 to 1. Jeezz
That IS perfect
2010 is a census year, so the most important races in the country are state legislators, for 2010, and even 2012.
“If we all get involved in primaries & get genuines conservatives running”
I’m not from Pa, but I will contribute to his opponent’s campaign. In this case, politics is NOT local.
If the GOP doesn’t come up with someone to beat Snarlin’ in the primaries,THEN it is finally time for conservatives to dump the liberal lite party!
Yeah, and they’ll re-elect this turd anyway.
“we HAD a shot at cleaning these places out this last election”
Yes, and not enough people got involved. It’s very easy to be complacent when you feel like your guy is in the whitehouse.
Even though we KNEW that a hard commie nearly got elected in 04, complacency set it
That is one of the fundamental problems of mankind. Zeal dies down, until complacency reigns, and thus destruction. Much of the Bible can be abstracted to that very point.
The answer is basically what the Bible implies. Get some zeal, pass that zeal on, make sure your kids have that zeal, and FIGHT.
I’m with you Dick, hardly any of these big-government jerks deserve our votes. I broke with my guy this past election. I wrote my name in. Screw him, he’s a ‘Republican’, but he votes for SCHIP, he votes for the bailout, what the hell is the difference?
As for Specter, we have no chance of beating him here in PA. It’s nearly impossible to beat a sitting Senator in a primary race. In 2004, Pat Toomey, a sitting US Congressman ran against Specter. Toomey had little name recognition, particularly in Western part of the state. Toomey got help from conservatives around the country, aided by our universal hatred for Arlen Specter. In the end, though, Toomey was outspent by Specter probably around 5-1. What made the difference to me, though, was President Bush, who was pretty popular at the time with Republicans, backed Specter. So did our conservative Senator, Santorum. That was it, Toomey lost 51-49. The establishment will line up with any sitting Senator with an “R” next to his name, no matter how much of a leftist he is.
I have no idea who is going to challenge Specter. I highly doubt Toomey will try again, he’s looking at the vacant Governor’s chair. All viable Republicans are angling for the Governorship, which will be much easier to win.
......its that time again
I fervently hope that this guy is on his last term. But then, this is the state that re-elected Murtha.
Remember who will be controlling the census.
WHERE is the video???
PA is the place that sent Murtha back after Murtha called his constituents all sorts of derogatory names.
That leads me to conclude that Murtha knew what he was talking about, in this instance! PA is a democrat hole.
