The Rehabilitation of Snowe, Collins, and Specter
Self | 2/13/09 | Natural Law

Posted on 02/13/2009 5:14:59 PM PST by Natural Law

Now that Specter, Snowe, and Collins have collected their 40 pieces of silver we can expect them to begin rehabilitating their images before the next election cycle. They will be humble and contrite. They will claim they were acting in our best interests and were stabbed in the back by their honorable collegues across the aisle. They will swear they have seen the light and that they will toe the conservative GOP line if we will only forgive and reelect them. They might even make a few votes and speeches in favor of conservative causes. Don't buy it.

Like the elephant symbol of the GOP I will never forget. I will work hard to support their opponent in bothe the GOP primaries AND the general election even if it means contributing to a Democrat.

I also pledge to boycott any conservattive program or publication that participates in their effort to rehabilitate themselves or otherwise gives them a platform to expplain their actions. I will also withhold any support for the RNC if punitive measures are not taken and will not support any RNC candidate that fails to denounce them by name. Who is with me?

What would a Bush know about a good conservative?

Far more than a Clinton or an Obama....

As long as we put these turncoats out of their a$$es, I don’t care if dems get they jobs. Those Dems will only be members of Congress in what *remains* of the United States anyway.

No, don’t give me that crap. I started telling these folks in ‘06 to start fighting, we weren’t spending money for them to surrender, which they did, they gave it all away.

Then along came McCain who ran a lame duck campaign UNTIL he chose Sarah Palin which electrified everyone, then once again I started contributing until I saw that he really wasn’t interested in winning. And then the backstabbing of Gov. Palin began. These are disgusting cretins.

Nope, I’m saving my money, can’t get any worse, you’ll see, I’ve been around a bit, now it looks like they’ve sold my GRANDCHILDREN down the river. I don’t see any fighters yet, they’re going to have to PROVE themselves for a change, it doesn’t take mega bucks to do the job that you’re elected to and stand up and fight for God’s sake.

We’re talking about voting for things (as a politician), not fighting terrorists popping up on ambushes and RPG attacks and IEDs like my son endured. I didn’t “jump ship”, the ship apparently left me on the dock.

They are three little pigs who voted for pork. That's my image.

Yeah, that’s it. I can’t stand the way (on tv) he always looks right at the camera every now and then when he’s interviewing someone. Almost like the camera’s a mirror or something. Plus he’s not the brightest bulb...

It’s only 30 pieces of silver — don’t give them credit for more than they deserve.

What laughingly passes for the Republican "leadership" should punish them severely--smaller offices, removal of as many perks & priveleges as possible, and a firm promise to give them NO party support

Can McConnell remove them from any committees? All they deserve is to sit in the corner with dunce caps on.

Agreed. Spector is literally the best that PA can do!

It’s a cancer that has spread from Massachsetts through NY to PA.

The will “convert” to the Democrats if they are smart (questionable at this writing).

I second your emotion.

BTW...the election for a successor to Gilibrand is March 31. The Repub. is Joe Tedisco. I can’t give much, but I’ll give him something, it’ll be great if many of us could give him a little something, especially Freepers form NY State.

Specter is Jewish
Snowe is Greek Orthodox
Only Collins is Catholic.
