Arlen Specter is now going around telling how he is trying to simplify the federal income tax.

That hypocrite hasn't mentioned his postcard-sized plan since he ran for president in 1996

He is now bragging about the goodies he is getting for Pennsylvania. Having a pig at the pork barrel is not my idea of good government.

If Specter, who is now in life's late innings suddenly succumbed to old age, you could safely bet the farm that Fat Eddie would appoint someone even more objectionable,

Vote for Pat Toomey.

Former Vice President Al Gore's speech on global warming is getting a lot of laughs. He made his speech to a crowd at New York's Beacon Theater on Jan. 15, the coldest day in the city in decades.

God had to be watching and laughing as three young pranksters streaked naked through a Denny's restaurant in Spokane, Wash.

The Associated Press reported that to make a fast getaway, the buffoons left their car running in the parking lot. This was their downfall. A mean old character eating inside the restaurant saw the running vehicle and stole it, along with the streakers' clothes.

This left the three men huddling in an adjacent parking lot -- naked in 20-degree weather. They must've heard and believed Gore's global warming speech.

I see that after his stunning victory in Iowa where Sen. John F. Kerry is calling himself the "Comeback Kid." Actually "Ketchup Kid" would be more appropriate.

The question we are asking: Is Mrs. Heinz thinking about 57 ways to leave her lover?

All Pennsylvanians should vote for Pat Toomey. Read the rest of the column. Some goofy woman really took off after the author.
