I went to visit Sen. Arlen Specter to save him from an embarrassing pro-stimulus vote that will damage America's economy and send the nation back to 1970s-style stagflation.
Jim Robinson, founder of FreeRepublic.com, and I arrived at Sen. Specter's office with a group of folks who oppose the $1.5 trillion stimulus package, on this past Monday morning. We asked to see Sen. Specter. The office secretary didn't seem to be happy to see us. I could not blame her. We were there to embarrass her boss. Jim, wearing his Navy cap, asked about the senator's whereabouts, but the secretary wasn't helping. It was distressing to see a wheelchair-bound Navy veteran being treated with such disrespect by a senator's staff.
It is clear that Specter's front-office staff needs to do an internship at Wal-Mart to pick up tips on how to properly work as a greeter. While the staffer told us she didn't know where Specter was, the senator was on Laura Ingraham's national radio program, defending the stimulus bill and snidely calling her "young lady" when she challenged him.
The desk staffer warned me that I couldn't go into the backrooms. It went through my mind that I certainly should be able to walk through the doors because I helped pay for them with my tax money. But diplomacy kicked in, so I yelled some more.
Eventually, Specter's chief of staff emerged and took notes as our group told him how disgusted we were that his boss was favoring a stimulus bill that is overwhelmingly apposed by his constituents.
Liz Colby Harp brought her five homeschooled children so Specter could see whom he is saddling with trillions of dollars of future debts. She was gracious, intelligent and dead on with her remarks.

I could say the same thing for the little snit that passes her time away inside the door of SnoweJobs office!
I was stuck in an elevator with 8 of them, all in suits and carrying clearly marked "ACORN" binders/reports. Made me nearly have a stroke.
This is where we are sadly lacking. They are constantly there playing all nice and respectable for the powers that be then go back to the "communities" and practice their thuggery!
As I’ve said many times, the GOP has been coopted by the demrat party. It is merely a demrat action arm. Presently there is no meaningful opposition party to the demrat party.
Rock on!!!!!
Snarlin Arlin is in it for himself.
RIGHT ON!!!
EVERYONE WHO CAN DO THIS, GO NOW!!!! the phone lines cannot accomodate enough calls. They are jammed and busy.
LET’S GROWD THE OFFICES OF THE THREE TRAITORS AS WELL AS THE SENATE HALLWAYS. FREPERS CAN DO IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mrs. Esopman
Yes... labeled a radical just as the Founding Fathers were by the tyrants of their day.
Sorry if they offended your tender sensibilities.
"While leaving Specter's office on Monday, I walked past a long line of people wearing ACORN t-shirts. This is the same group that helped get Obama elected. They came to get what the rest of us will be paying for."
Bravo!
No, lets dump a few thousand of our Congressman (there families) and those who work for them in Boston Harbor, Potomac or at sea! Because that is what they are doing to us, our family and our country.

You may be onto something there. 10,000 lbs of bacon dumped in the Potomac. Wouldn't be that difficult. Everyone send a lb of bacon to the D.C. Chapter so they can dump it, complete with video to send to all the media and put on You Tube.
If I had been in an elevator with any ACORN traitors, I would have cursed them. “May the Lord G-d damm your souls to hell for destroying America.”
If this gets any momentum, I’m gonna buy stock in the Honey Baked Ham Co.!
But yeah, a lb of bacon would be pretty ripe after being in the mail for 3 days!
Or we could not waste food and just throw Kevin Bacon in the Potomac.
But seriously, which FReepers are in the DC area? That would be a great publicity stunt...
kristinn is the leader of the D.C. Chapter. That chapter is very active.
Disgusting, but thanks for archiving it, piasa.
