Specter says Dems broke their promise

The Hill ^ | 7/12/0 7 | Alexander Bolton

[Purrcival]

He has been a Senator for HOW long? Surely this can’t be a surprise to him.

[spyone]

This sad excuse for a man tells whoever he’s talking to what they want to hear, based on what he perceives as his own best interests. We all know people like this. It is pathetic.

[turnrightnow]

As my daughter says, “Yah, duh!”

[Chances Are]

What?!? Vlad wouldn’t trust him as far as he could throw him! It’s certain he simply views Leahy as nothing more than a useful idiot - and it’s not clear just yet just which of the 2 words he'd emphasize.

CA....

Even among these types one has to keep their word because so many back room deals are made that nothing would get done.

[Specter has accused Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) and Senate Judiciary Chairman Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) of breaking promises they made regarding Leslie Southwick, President Bush’s pick for the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals.]

Well duh.

Republicans are idiots.

[Anita1]

Maybe I’m too sceptical - but I don’t trust Specter as far as I can throw him!

For him to say he is now going to take the fight to the Dims is like saying a bear is going to eat his own hand!

There is something suspicious about all this - like others have said - why would he suddenly “want to take the fight to the Democrats??”

He WILL turn on the Republicans who help him - on a dime!!

Personally, I like to think of Arlen Specter as a "fornicating coprophage".

[hsalaw]

The decision inflamed liberal activists for its pointed use of the word “homosexual” instead of “gay.”

Since when is "homosexual" a slur? Is "heterosexual" also a slur? Should I become inflamed if someone calls me a heterosexual? Homosexuals ruined the word "gay."

[JoanneSD]

Exactly, Arlen is just now waking up? He needs to resign. for the good of the country...

[Fresh Wind]

What do you expect from a DemocRat who calls himself a Republican?

[Bender2]

Dems broke their promise? Do I dare say... am shocked!

[Joe Boucher]

Our President deserves Specter after all he resurected this RINO from ouster in his last election.
I wouldn’t let Arlen rake my lawn.

Specter says Dems broke their promise

There's a sentence that can be used over and over again. Write that one down, Arlen.

[LachlanMinnesota]

My question...what did Arlen give up to extract this alleged promise from the Dems?

I’ll bet Spectre still follows through with whatever he conceded to them, even if they violated their promise...

[expatpat]

Democrats broke promises? Democrats lied? Dog bites man?

[Suzy Quzy]

Hey Snarlin’ Arlen, Democrats LIE...so do you!!

[Inwoodian]

Only a certified schmuck would take the word of a Democrat on anything. What does Scottish Law tell you to do in situations like these, Arlen?

[Suzy Quzy]

What if the poster added the Phone Numbers and E-Addresses of the Congress critters in the story they post?
