. . . there was a consensus that the group did not want to say no to the president or an anxious nation.

A worthless, worthless piece of human refuse - an appeaser and footman to evil and the killers of the Republic.

I cannot see voting for Specter again under any circumstance.

“best we can do” is so much rubbish.

You can fight to the end. Even if you lose, you make the other side take all of the responsibility for it.

Now, as it is, when this plan is implemented and fails to work its magic- the blame goes to the “Republicans”. I can hear it already, Obama et al piously stating that the plan wasn’t nearly big enough- they were “forced” by the Republicans to accept a lot less (only $780 B!!) when at least a trillion was necessary.

Specter: Stimulus deal ‘best we can do’

And for that explanation alone Senator Spector the Bill should never be passed.
In this situation you do not do the best you can do and hope for it to work, You stick at the job until you get it right.
The reason we are in this position is because those in the government were doing the best they could do. Thats the problem. Most of them are idiots and political hacks that could not hold a job themselves if they were not on the public dole.

A small group of moderate senators including Arlen Specter (R., Pa.) reached the deal that appeared to assure Senate passage of an economic stimulus bill yesterday after more than 10 hours of near-constant private meetings.

Your photo has "(D)" which is about right. GOP should do an enima to clean out the RINOs.

"But I do believe we have to act, and under the circumstances, this is the best we can do."

We've been predicting since the JPM / Bear Stearns bailout that "the best we can do" would be the standard excuse. Look for it to continue to be the excuse of choice.

” “But for them we would not be here,” Reid said, yielding the floor to the Gang of Four to detail the agreement. “

And therein lies the rub. Had these two or three RINO jerks not caved, this travesty could have been slowed or stopped.

At minimum, they should switch their party affiliation to the DhimmiRats.

Ridiculous. Sad, but ridiculous.

The thing that troubles me is, we can throw sphinter out, but the empty suit Casey Jr would then be the senior senator from Pa.

Pennsylvania must get rid of them both.

Another thanks from the Bush/RNC group, Tomey had a real chance to beat this guy in the Republican primary, but he was through under the bus, just for party unity.

If Specter thinks the stimulus is the best they can do, he is obviously too stupid to be in the Senate. This is just another massive dose of the poison that is killing us.

If this is their best; they are absolutely worthless Representives and they should resign. . .and since they will not; they should be 're-called'; Impeached; and/or declared mentally unfit for Office.

America, being 'sold down the river' by these poor excuses for Leadership, cannot stand!

Makes you almost wish that Chrissy Mathews had run against him and thrashed him just because of this kind of behavior.

Indeed, some conservative Republicans have vowed to punish Specter, who is running for reelection next year!

That would be ME!

I’m truly ashamed that this man is my Senator. The arrogance and ignorance of this man defies words. And no, I didn’t vote for him in the primary or in the general.

MacSpecter serves as an example of why our experiment as a republic is flawed and failed.

He is a traitorous dog!

So far we have Specter, Collins and Snowe in the Yay column, right? They dont call them RHINOs for nothing. Anyone care to guess how much stimulus pork will be going to their respective districts??? We can only hope thier colleagues in the GOP and their own constituents pressure them enough to vote no prior to the vote next week.

If that’s you best, you need to quit to let someone capable do the job.
