Specter Defends Pelosi, Lieberman Criticizes

ABC News ^ | April 8, 2007 | Lindsay Hamilton

[EagleUSA]

Specter is a POS. He never should have been put in the job he is in. He is just positioning for what he sees as a socialist-dominated Congress coming up and he is spouting the party line. Another RINO that needs some lessons in party unity. Anyone who supports the CRIME of Pelosi, should be in the same jail with her.

[D Rider]

Can we trade?

[ca centered]

Lieberman often gets it right.

[rottndog]

What has Spector ever done for the Republican party?

Pulled it hard to the left?

[353FMG]

Specter is merely looking out for himself - it is the Pennsylvania voters who are to blame for keeping this undercover democrat in office.

[Cinnamon Girl]

To quote Algore in one of his stump speeches (see “The War Room”):

“Down is up, up is down!”

What is wrong with Arlen Spector?

[Post-Neolithic]

Specter, the gift that just keeps giving.

[LimaLimaMikeFoxtrot]

For cryin' out loud. That does it. Specter and his pals nauseate me and are the reason I nearly (A Stayed home last election day. (B wanted to vote for the most liberal Dem that I could find.. my anger fueled logic being that only when all the RINOs and jelly-spine republicans are thrown out and lib dems come to power could we then TRULY see an opposition party that will stand up to the Left, 'cause the current Republican party sure ain't it. (Yeah I know..anger fueled logic).

Ehh, I did come to my senses. And voted. And still Pelosi was apparently 'elected' to Sec State.

Giuliani / Specter 2008
Because we need to be more moderate to win!

Maverick Spector Defends ‘Wall of Sound’ Litmus Test

[avacado]

Specter said: "She has a very prominent constitutional role in determining what's going to happen in the Iraq war,"

Hey numbnuts! She went to Syria, not Iraq! And she discussed Israel and Syria, not Iraq and Syria.

How did we get this clown Specter as a Republican?

[kittymyrib]

If it weren’t for President Bush and Rick Santorum, Specter wouldn’t be auditioning to be Queen Nancy’s vassal now. Bush and Santorum pulled Specter’s buns out of the fire in the ‘04 GOP primary, giving him a narrow win over a real conservative American, Pat Toomey. Toomey wouldn’t be making asinine comments such as Specter made in this article.
Arlen Specter is one of Bush’s biggest mistakes...and it didn’t exactly help Santorum either.
About 75% of Freepers knew this was an egregious error. How could Rove and Bush get it so utterly wrong?

[DTogo]

Bush deserves what he campaigned for in Specter’s re-election.

[Post-Neolithic]

"Specter is merely looking out for himself - it is the Pennsylvania voters who are to blame for keeping this undercover democrat in office."

Not all PA voters, only the ones that thought they should vote the way President Bush and X-Senator Santorum said they should.

Which is the biggest reason Santorum lost his Senate bid. Lot's of older folks up here still hold that grudge against Santorum.

[stockpirate]

Arlen Specter is a sleazy POS, and I was amd as hell the Bush supported him against another Republican in 2000.

Now the cock roaches that Bush stood by are coming home to pay him back.

He should have also rep[laced ALL of Clinton’s DOJ appointments.

[somemoreequalthanothers]

Always seems to be the worst strategic times when this guy sticks his own party in the back.

[rob21]

“Specter said: “She has a very prominent constitutional role in determining what’s going to happen in the Iraq war,””

I highly doubt that Specter has ever actually read the Constitution.

[DeerfieldObserver]

What has Spector ever done for the Republican party?

Arlen Spector is the only reason Clarence Thomas is on the Supreme Court today.

[EternalHope]

How could Rove and Bush get it so utterly wrong?

I dunno, but they did.

With slightly better "strategery", Toomey would be a U.S. Senator now.

And if Santorum had backed Toomey, and with Specter out of the way, we might have been able to keep Santorum as well.

Coulda. Shoulda. Didn't.

[parthian shot]

I pray that all the feepers are writing there representatives asking that Pelosi be charged with violation of the Logan Act!
