Specter has been referred to as a "moderate".

So, from what he represented, and from what he said and did, here's my interpretation or definition of a "moderate"...

A "moderate", is someone that the media and democrats like, and that agrees with them. An extremist is always a conservative or republican. A democrat is someone that always agrees with the liberal media. A communist is someone that the media adores, no matter what the issue, and no matter how radical their positions might sound.

A moderate, like Specter, is someone that can't be trusted by either side, and is someone that easily switches positions, depending upon what suits him the best at the moment. A moderate will throw you and his mother under the bus, if it will further his goals. Notice that, being a moderate is all about "him" or "her", and not about caring about the issues or the people being affected. A moderate is a useful idiot, and one that can easily be bought. A moderate in politics has no scruples.

Sheesh, you accurately described that consumate weasel, Bill O'Reilly, in your post about snarlin' Arlen.

Thanks, I can use that paragraph in a lot of ways.
