At heart, Snow, Collins, and Specter are democrats, so they don’t care what Republicans think.
They’re really enjoying the spotlight.
To: skeeter
What am I saying - if there was any justice in the world retiring to some lucrative lobbying job while enjoying a fat pension and medical plan wouldn't be the WORST thing any of these three could look forward to.
Thats some punishment for stealing my children's' inheritance.

I was so ticked off with dialing and dialing that when I got through and the guy was so flippant I figured it was best to end the call. Got a gun show this weekend I don't want to miss.
Called the 866-544-7573 right beforehand and got an 0bama infomercial that mentions Rush and right wingers, almost broke the phone when I threw it.

No, because when I see them I see “communist, socialist, traitor, anti-american” the list could go on and on.

and obviously all the calls, letters, emails, faxes had absolutely NO effect on their reasoning. Not that I thought it would. Sadly, this is where the RINO's and the moderates get their power, as they did in 2006.
Boehner and Mitchell and the real conservatives are powerless and out of the spotlight.
Collins, Snowe and Specter are up front and wheeling-dealing.
Threats from conservative base have no effect on them. The drug of power and celeb trumps all!

The guy on CNN said Republicans gave this a ‘wink-and a nod’ even though they may not vote for it. Then he said some House members may vote for it and called it a victory. Then he said something about Rush Limbaugh losing.

Arlon Traitor needs to go down. He may as well announce his not running now.

If, as I suspect, they made this bill even more odious/pork laden than it was before and Mitch McConnell can slow down this runaway train just a little bit, long enough for the public to come to grips with what’s really in it, this thing might just get stopped.

The “lesser of two evils” will always be there...in every party....in every race.
It is a very rare thing indeed to find a perfect conservative in political philosophy, voting records, personal life, etc.....the litmus test is long. Not to mention when the MSM begins their destruction of said candidate...conservatives throw them away to wait for a shiny new one. Then repeat.
But again, our modern fellow citizens have been raised by the MSM/DNC/Hollywood/Academia.
They WANT socialism.
To: Dr. Scarpetta
I don't think we can wait until the next election. It is time to mount a campaign of email, call, fax and face-to-face whenever possible to get these three removed from EVERY committee that they are on. It is ridiculous to have them filling a precious Republican spot on a committee when they continue to vote with the Democrats. If the Democrats want to keep them on a committee, then let them use one of their spots. Mitch McConnell must be held accountable for allowing this to happen.
To: Dr. Scarpetta
At heart, Snow, Collins, and Specter are democrats, so they dont care what Republicans think.If it kicks like a donkey and brays like a donkey - it's a donkey!
