Yup, pretty much every Pennsylvanian who notices the Pennsylvania Society asks that question.

The most racist people in America are liberals. Spector is a liberal. Par for the course.

Arlen gets his jokes from ancient Scottish law.

Did you hear about Democrat and the Liberal who were life partners? The Democrat was upset that nobody thought he was very smart so he decided to show his partner he was smart so he decided he was going to paint the living room of their apartment while his partner was at work.
When the Liberal came home he was amazed that the apartment was smelling of paint. He asked his Democratic partner what had he done.
"I painted the living room while you were gone today." said the Democratic partner.
The Liberal partner said, " How come you have on your leather coat and your ski jacket? You're sweating like a politician who just got caught trying to sell a senator's seat?"
"Well," the Democrat partner said, " on the can it said for best results, put on two coats."

At least he didnt say maccaca. That would have meant a boot out of Congress. Polish jokes and Catholic jokes are fair game, but it will soon become criminal to make a Muslim even slightly uncomfortable. Is that what the media decided to define maccaca as?

A Russian, American, and Pollock are driving through the desert when their car breaks down. Each of them agrees to take one item as they have to continue through the desert on foot.
The Russian and Pollock ask the American what he is going to take.
He said, "the water in case I get thirsty."
They said that's cool.
The American and Pollock ask the Russian what he is going to take.
He said, "the food in case I get hungry."
They said that's cool.

He said, "the car door in case I get hot all I have to do is roll down the window."

“The Poles are white”.
More than that, Poland is largely a Catholic country. Thus a double “get out of jail free” card for Arlen.

Are you saying all Poles are blonde?
To: Gaffer
Exactly. Sounds like he is qualified to be the VP of the USA, as long as he runs as a Dem.

It's probably due more to senility than anything else.
Specter actually started out as a Democrat, but maybe he figured that he could get over the primary hurdles as a Republican than a Democrat.
I don't know about the "liberals are the worst bigots" argument though. It's possible, but there are enough bigots out there of all political stripes and of none.

“At least he didnt say maccaca.”
That will cause an uproar only if you are perceived as an up and coming Republican force to be reckoned with.

My dad tells polish jokes all the time. Oh well.
A few years ago the the Univ of Georgia had a player named David Pollack. A CBS sideline reporter mispronounced his name (if u now what I mean) and she got into a little bit of trouble.

What a buffoon! Of course, Arlen was already an old dog when political correctness pretty much wiped out the ethnic joke from polite company. Obviously he did not learn that new trick.
One of the funner comedy bits I saw from Second City TV was a spokesperson sitting at an anchor desk, apologizing for previously aired Polish jokes but repeating the jokes in the process. What he did not know was there were a couple of other guys behind him acting out the jokes as he spoke.
I guess that makes me an old dog, too.
