I’m appalled, appalled I tell you!
Is there no longer even a single soul left here on FR now willing to rant and rave about the dying of the site’s nobel civility towards the honored dead and their bereaved loved ones? Have we at long last become nothing more than a pack of jackals, churlish beasts whom our betters can no longer shame into uttering knee-jerk platitudes by condemning us with righteous finger wagging and quoting of Bible verses? s/

I was wondering why he had been absent from the obama campaign trail in recent months...
To: albie
He did a lot of damage to our Republic before he died.That he did. Without his vote Obamacare doesn't pass.

A living and breathing,.....well anyway.... a good reason for term limits. ;-)
To: BfloGuy
Well, Good.
Arlen Spector, Democrat turned Republican turned Democrat. Another Joe Biden sleeze bag. He will not be missed.

Richly, with ridiculous display,
the politician’s corpse was laid away.
While all his acquaintances sneered and slanged,
I wept... for I longed to see him hanged.

Close but not “cigar”. He’s a smoking turd in hell tonight.
Hell had to enlarge itself to take in this traitorous POS.

Didn’t like him and he was a real detriment to the GOP, but I hope he rests in peace. Condolences to his family.

For all his faults, Arlen Specter did the good deed of getting Clearence Thomas confirmed. For that, I thank him and give him his due.

Good riddance to lieing trash.
I refuse to be politically correct about snarlin Arlin, I am glad he lost his last election and I am glad he is croaked.

Sununu was on Fox today praising Specter for helping in the effort to get Clarence Thomas confirmed. So having him there wasn’t quite as bad as if an open Democrat had held the seat. Still, we will never know how much the nation lost by not having Robert Bork on the Court.
To: SC_Pete; All
Term limits is the only answer. I used to think so. Now I believe that the death of the MSM and the ascendancy of the new media will do.

"Another piece of information in the JFK assassination lost."
Wouldn't it be great if Specter had a sealed envelope with all the who-really-dunnit details given to his attorney to be mailed to all major media after his death?

I wish that the new media could save freedom and liberty, but the new media just as easily promotes communism, terrorism, propaganda, flash mobs, union demonstrations, voter fraud, drug trade, human trafficking, Chinese and Russian espionage, cyberterrorism, and repetitive motion thumb injuries. The God of Re-election changes every politician, drives pork, bailouts, loans, grants, tax credits, Agribusiness, the entire lobbying industry, and distorts the national economy. The professional political class should be put out of business tomorrow. To paraphrase William F. Buckley, I’d rather be governed by the first 500 people in the Boston phonebook.
