Specter blames Kemp’s death on Republicans
Radio Vice Online ^ | May 4, 2009 | Jim Vicevich

Posted on 05/04/2009 5:46:37 AM PDT by libertarian27

This is just a despicable statement on the part of a politically expedient Congressional relic. If only the Republicans had spent more money on research, Jack Kemp would be alive. Set aside the fact that he offers absolutely no evidence more government money would have led to a cure of Jack Kemp’s cancer, what he seems to be suggesting is that had Congress listened to “Ole Arlen” and if he remains in office … there will be a cure for all cancer. To even suggest this 24 hours after Mr Kemp’s death is despicable.

Very reminiscent of John Edwards “elect me and Christopher Reeve will walk again. Narcissism on parade. The world just can’t afford not to elect me.

Literally, a political animal with no trace of humanity or a soul.

This coming from someone who was successfully treated for cancer.

So then it’s his fault, since he’s been a Republican for his entire tenure in Congress. Glad to see at least one politician accepting responsibility. Will he resign in shame?

Kemp has not “assume room temputure” when Benedict Arnold Spector has to bring in politics. What a MORON!

government money can cure cancer
private money can not cure cancer

Is anyone really surprised that Specter would say something like this? Not me. This idiot is only out for himself.

I heard on the radio this morning that when he got the poll numbers on his race against Toomey, he flew into a rage, screaming at his staffer. He said that he was not going to allow the Republicans in PA to sit in judgment of him.

The Dems can have Specter. He certainly has the same psychology as they.

What a P.O.S. I am sure he could care less for Jack Kemp especially on his tax reductions.

But we might be getting this forgotten verse of the song.

The punk rolled up his big blue eyes
And said to the jocker, “Sandy,
I've hiked and hiked and wandered too,
But I ain't seen any candy.
I've hiked and hiked till my feet are sore
And I'll be damned if I hike any more
To be buggered sore like a hobo's whore
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains.”

If there were real justice, Speculum’s cancer would return with a vengeance, and by the time it was done it would have devoured everything except his eyelashes.

He’s getting ready to posthumously blame his own death on Republicans. Gosh, if we just spent more money on research, maybe Arlen could have lived forever. Wouldn’t that be special.
