Spector must be prevented from becoming the next Senate Judiciary Chairman.

We won the election by a massive turnout of the Republican base. We must not let a RINO thwart our victory.

[tiny Freeper]

shove it spector! he's the only "republican" i DIDN'T vote for. i pulled one for the constitutional party. clymer is pro-life and more conservative than spector will ever be. (i guess it's a little late to be pointing this out to fellow pennsylvanian's now.)

[savedbygrace]

President Bush told everyone in the debates that he has no litmus test for USSC nominees, but that they must be strict constructionists. Specter says they must interpret the Consitution according to the current norms of the people. Therefore, Specter is standing in direct opposition to President Bush. That must not be allowed.

We need a plan of action.

[tellw]

Specter could be ousted. In 1987 I believe, Jesse Helms successfully took over the Foreign Relations Committee away from Richard Lugar. Helms pulled seniority though, and you actually had the strange situation of liberal Republican Senator Lowell Weicker voting for Helms over Lugar purely on the seniority principle.

Ping for help to bombard the office of Arlen Specter...

[fuquadukie]

I will admit I violated a personal voting rule in voting for Spector. Normally, I do not vote for someone that I'm not excited about or knowledgable of, in ANY race. I held my nose and voted for Spector because I was converned about the Senate majority and simply couldn't vote for any of the other candidates.

In the end, we may wish Hoffel had won... easier to deal with and fight the known enemy than a traitorous "friend".

BTW, I supported Toomey in the Primary. I am extremely disappointed Bush and Santorum abandoned Toomey.

I live in PA> We tried to replace this A$$, but he squeaked by. Time to get this SOB straightened out. He is there to represent the People and how the people want him to act in our stead. We in PA must e-mail him, call him and not let him chair this committee!! We may as well put a Dumbocrat into office

[A Mississippian]

Among other things found in the article:

Though he refused to describe the political leanings of the high court, Specter said he "would characterize myself as moderate; I'm in the political swim. I would look for justices who would interpret the Constitution, as Cardozo has said, reflecting the values of the people."

It is very apparent that this former law-man doesn't even support the rule of law if he thinks our Constitution should change based on public opinion or "values", instead of vice versa.

No question he should be denied the chairmanship of the Judiciary committee.

[Sociopathocracy]

Why couldn't he have lost the primary? The day after the election, he turns into Insta-Jerk. Geez!

[sasafras]

Bush and Rove thought they could take PA by getting Spector elected. Looks like he is up to his old tricks of stabbing us conservatives in the back. Someone needs to tell Spector to shut the hell up - he's not running the show. How do we get some traction on this!!

[Saundra Duffy]

Spector defended Clarence Thomas during that Anita Hill fiasco - and I can't help liking him for that. Sorry.

[Dont Mention the War]

I feel the need to point out that the reporter who wrote this article is the wife of Jim Jordan, former campaign manager for one JOHN FORBES KERRY and the guy who ran the Media Fund, a pro-Kerry 527 that was responsible for the most obsecenely false anti-Bush ads of the campaign.

Little Lara has quite a knack for spitting out articles that get Pennsylvania Republicans into trouble. I'm not saying Specter's not a RINO, but you can be sure that Lara crafted her story in order to portray Specter in the most controversial light possible.

[Capt. Tom]

While Specter is a loyal Republican --

like senators McCain-Jeffords- Snowe- Collins- Chaffee. - tom

[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

I keep hearing this both ways. If he is not with us then he has got to go.

[soycd]

Let's ask Frist to handle this before we create a public divide on this eve of victory. We need to appear united for at least a few weeks before the circular firing squad begins.

We have some time to hash out the rinos from the conservatives without giving the MSM something to divide us in public.

[mabelkitty]

Why does he assume he will get the position?
Chances are very good he won't, but if he does get it, he will be told he will be yanked if he doesn't get with the program.

[Burlem]

I had an idea and acted on it. I copied\pasted the article and e-maied it to all the radio hosts I can think of, or those I have e- addresses for...Hugh Hewitt, Mark Williams rush Limbaugh, I have the Morning show on KSFO and a couple others to do yet, what do you all think of this idea?

[woodb01]

bump for later,

FREEPERS EVERYWHERE should mount an IMMEDIATE lobbying campaing to throw the lying lunatic specter out of ANY leadership position in the senate...

If he doesn't get the chairmanship it's not like he can go to the Dems. :-)

[Flashman_at_the_charge]

Though he refused to describe the political leanings of the high court, Specter said he "would characterize myself as moderate; I'm in the political swim. I would look for justices who would interpret the Constitution, as Cardozo has said, reflecting the values of the people."

The lying swine.

[big'ol_freeper]

As we say in the U.S. Army....lead, follow, or get the h@ll out of the way! I wish this turd would get out of the way...
