Specter Shocks Capitol Hill, Becomes a Dem

[Simple2Perfection]

Specter,

RESIGN ... this is foul, it reeks of deception.... Does this mean you support Agenda 21 Eugenics now as well???

[MaxLibertas]

So what is your point moron? That the Republicrats suck. No kidding. While the Jesus freaks obsess about gays and while people like you obsess about the Jesus freaks, the few of us left who actually care about the country arel trying to figure out how we can stop our corrupt political class from dragging us toward fascistic socialism. You sound a lot like an irrational religious zealout yourself. Maybe it's time you took a long hard look in the mirror.

[cg66079]

What was behind him switching parties? Well, self-preservation, but not because he is just going where the wind blows.

He is going with the electorate that has nominated him 5 times. 150,000 of the moderate Republicans in Pennsylvania switched their affiliation. That makes it near impossible for him as the most moderate Republican on the Senate to win the primary. The Republican party is radicalizing and he just can't go with them, simple as that.

[IslandSpiceDreamin]

political WHORE

[MaxLibertas]

Why doesn't this wretched old political whore just retire already. He switches from being a big government senator in a big government Republican party, to being a big government senator in an even bigger government Democratic party. And the media thinks this is a major story. Where is the party that believes in abiding by the Constitution? Where is the party that believes in the principle of limited government upon which the nation was founded? Fuck the Republicrats!

[ivanthomson]

Brillent statement. Thank you. "From big government Republican to even bigger Government Democrats".... brillent.

[MaxLibertas]

Your welcome. Those of us who are awake realize that the "two party" system is a sham. They are owned by the same people who own the media. They all want to increase the power of the state at the expense of individual freedom. Unfortunately, the vast majority of the American sheeple are in a coma. I happen to believe the Founders got it right. I suppose that makes me a potential terrorist according to the Department of Homeland security. That's how warped the government has become.

[ivanthomson]

You are right on the money. I also believe the founding fathers got it right as well. Unfortunately, two centuries of lawyers and politicians have wrecked havoc on the US Constitution. And, yes, you are right, too many American sheeple who think there is some difference between the dems and the repubs. Amazes me...the art of distraction. But thanks a lot for the JFK/Specter comment...thank god there are people out there who know what happened and what continues to happen.

[Cuffsmaster]

maxlibertas - you say what I'm saying only a lot nicer than I. I'm disgusted with the gop forgetting its past and spending money like a drunk democrat. It's this new breed of gop that is focused on religious issues and seem to forget they were elected to actually run a government. well they failed bigtime and now they want to cry that the dems are spending to much money.  what a joke. I think you must believe in talking snakes to also believe the gop is conservative. it's a lie.

[MaxLibertas]

In that case, we may be on the same page. We need to stick to the principles upon which the nation was founded. We need to radically reduce the size of the federal government. We need to abolish the Federal Reserve. We need to free our economy from the grip of corrupt international bankers. We need to bring our pathetic political class to its knees.

[banoboman]

Specter would rather quit than fight, coward! Where do I send my donation to his opponent?

[Cuffsmaster]

Specter is not quiting the fight. The GOP is a fundementalist christian freak pary now and close to the general public. The gop has lost the N. East by being a Jesus freak party. The is only following all the Rep in PA that left the GOP behind. I voted GOP for 40 years until the party changed to what it is today. I like many many many moderates feel pushed out of the party. You jesus freaks that don't believe in science can have the GOP. you have reduced the GOP to only 22%.

[KeithOlberdunce]

Specter is a liberal. Good fucking riddance.

I'd throw my lot in with the Christian nuts before I ever did with the socialist ones.

The so-called 'moderates' is why the GOP is on the ropes. Who was the presidential nominee? A god damn Rino. Give your head a shake.

[Cuffsmaster]

Oh the Democrats have lots of christians just not the ones that think their political party's purpose is to butt f**k you with their religion. The fundamentalist GOP is not disgusting and a disgrace.

[KeithOlberdunce]

The Democrat's just have a different Jesus - their messiah is called Obama.

[Cuffsmaster]

I admit the Dem's are not Jesus freaks on step away from handling snakes like the southern GOP. I coud never be a Dem because they spend to much money -- oh wait the GOP ran up a huge debt too. Well at least the dems don't that the party platform isa fundamentalist church covinent.

[Cuffsmaster]

I dislike the Democrats because the spend to much money but the Christians in the Democrat party are different than GOP Christians. The gop Christians think it is the same requirement s and believes to be in the GOP as it is in their church. They think you should be a member of the holly roller snake handling spirit filled Temple to be a gop, well at least a Southern Baptist. The gop has become a fundamentalist Christian club.

[MaxLibertas]

"I'd throw my lot in with the Christian nuts before I ever did with the socialist ones."

I'm with you pal. We have a government that ignores the Constitution and is dragging us toward fascistic socialism. We have a Department of Homeland Security that now considers most Americans potential "terrorists". Yet, the dumbed down sheeple think the Christians are the problem. Why? Because that's what they're told to think. It would be funny if it wasn't so tragic.

[Cuffsmaster]

The GOP created the Department of Homeland security. The last President was the biggest spending president in history. Being a jesus freak does not make you a responsible when spending public funds. In fact they have proven to be horrible at it and also as bad as these bunch of democrats. Jesus freak gops are not conservative in government operations they are only interested in Gays & creation science. The jesus freaks forget the first purpose is to actually run a gov.

[Cuffsmaster]

Now the JC freaks cry about the dems spending sooo much money. Ha HA Look at what Bush and is band of jesus freaks were doing with taxpayer money and building a huge debt. you jesus freaks forget soo fast how horrible you ran a government. you are more interested in sticking your fundamentist jesus up everyones ass instead of running a conservative gov. Well moderates have left the GOP becuase of jesus freaks. Millions of them. along with the seats in congress. Bye Jesus freaks

[Cuffsmaster]

TO a Soutnern jesus freak that's only interested in stupid issures like creation science, Specter is a liberal. For 40 years I voted GOP even write-in in the navy but not this crazy party as it now stands. If you're not a fundamentalist evangelical christian freak and/or you believe in running an ACTUAL conservative spending government there is no reason to vote gop. The jesus freaks spend money like a damn democrat while in power and sqeeel the demos are spending to much when they lose

[KeithOlberdunce]

To anybody with a fucking brain Specter is a liberal. Rent one. A true conservative leaving the Republicans would become an independent, rather than a Democrat. Specter is a vote-whore without a conscience who should have been put out to pasture years ago. Term limits would eliminate assholes like Specter, Kennedy and Byrd, along with 90% of the rest of them.

[Cuffsmaster]

In PA primary elections only registered GOPS are alowed to vote. Over 200,000 PA GOP's abandon the GOP because it got to fundamentalist and moved to the DEMS. In other words the holier than thou fundamentalist have ran moderates out of the party and it has happened everywhere in the NORTH. Who want that Dixiecrat southern religious party. God bless anyone leaving thier silly ass behind. They are a disgrace to what a GOP should be and was in the past.

[Cuffsmaster]

To the ex - racist southern democrat before 1964 -- now GOP any one that does not believe in talking shakes and a virgin birth is a fucking uneless condemed indivitual not worth their time. unless they can stick their version of religion up their ass. TO them the GOP is a founded on fundimentalist beliefs. Speaking in tounges and that kind of crap.

[Cuffsmaster]

To anyone that believes in talking snakes and the creation science crap of the bible anyone that uses reason and logic is a liberal. That is why you have to watch these jesus freaks that want to sread thier fairy tales as truth and spread hate as love.

[KeithOlberdunce]

You really need to get off this anti-Christian rant. You're like a broken record with this shit. Just because there are Christians in the GOP doesn't make the Democrats any fucking good.

[Cuffsmaster]

Keithoblerdunce said: "You need to get off this anti-Christian rant. ..broken record . because there are Christians in the GOP doesn't make the Democrats any fucking good REPLY: smoke and mirrors. Democrats have christian and more of them then the 22 % GOP. They just are not stupid fundamentalist that beleive they know the answer for all the rest of us in their religion nor do they believe ther invisible friend in the sky gives them the right to stick there religion up everyones ass.

[Cuffsmaster]

Keitholberdunce said: You need to get off this anti-Christian rant - broken record - REPLY: It's is clearly a Jesus freak rant. The dominant evil influnce in the GOP that has destoryed it and killed it from the truely conservative party it once was. It is not a evangelical jesus freak party and thinks it has the right to establish the moral code for the rest of us. It has little to do with being a party to run a government. it's a way to force fundementalist prejudice on us. shameful.

[Cuffsmaster]

The republican Jesus freaks (abnormal christians) stay on a anti- rant all the time. You can squeel like a stuck pig when you get a little of it back but you truely deserve it. The jesus freaks are against science, gays, or anything else reasonble. So I feel no sorrorw for you getting it throwed back at you. Jesus freaks try to butt f**k the rest of us and think they have a right to. They falsey see themselves as a majority because they only hang around like minded jesus freaks. shameful

[Cuffsmaster]

You really need to get off this anti-Christian rant. REPLY: Christians hire missionaries and preacher to spend their entire workday doing pro-Christian ranting. Hell Christians put millions of hours and dollars into trying to butt f**k the whole world with their unproven invisible friend. SO one guy making a few post on utube is more opposition to all this time and money than you can stand? Jesus freaks squeal like a stuck pick when opposed with the truth. smoke and mirrors for Jesus.

[tamapalagi]

Hey I dig the name KeithOlberdunce. Like a liberal he jumped espn went liberal msnbc tried espn again and is switched back to liberal douchebag.

[Cuffsmaster]

What is shameful is that you don't see these former dixiecrat racist democrats that left the DEMS when the civil rights laws were passed have distroyed the GOP. They have made the party unuseable for normal people. Look how moderates and real conservatives are leaving the party by the millions. None of the former conservative stronghold up north are sticking with the jesus freaks because thier values are different. They don't care about good govenment. just sticking morals up your ass.

[Cuffsmaster]

I am afraid that the days are over where a real conservative that wants a good clean government will vote with the jesus freaks that spend money like a democrat when in power. The JC freaks don't know shit about being conservative just pushing baby jesus in the most conservative form up everyones ass. The real conservatives and moderates have been out voiced by the jesus freaks for years. It is time to show their true nature and color. show they are shameful and unamerican.

[P3rf3ctStorm]

Put the old futz out to pasture. What a flip-flopper.

[tracer740]

P3rf3-- What a typical wingnut , insane retort, "Put the old futz out to pasture. What a flip-flopper", ... is that your sentiment towards the 'old futz' who left the D camp, and became the R governor of California, followed by Pres. of U.S.? It better have been cuz that old futz should have been put out to pasture way before that. lol

[P3rf3ctStorm]

What else can I say? Fuck off tracer. Your opinion doesn't matter to anyone.

[tracer740]

Obviously it mattered when I called you on your silly, biased comment. Doesn't it feel dumb when you've been exposed having said an almost insanely biased remark that makes no real and objective point?

[P3rf3ctStorm]

And what is so biased and erroneous about my comment tracer? Where is the untruth? Specter is ancient in years, is obviously not operating on all 8 cylinders (old futz), and has just switched parties (flip-flopper). A perfectly factual comment. But apparently you disagree. Too bad...

[abarzilai664]

He's against card check, though the dems will "persaude" him to change his views to survive the PA dem primary.

[saisugoi]

I can't believe the words coming out of the minority leader's mouth! Can you say, "Fear Mongering" children?

[RantVideos]

Only suckers and thieves buy stocks. It's rigged in their favor. If the past 50 years hasn't convinced you yet, you just stupid or one of the players of organized fraud and financial terrorism

[RantVideos]

My first thought, Specter Runs for President. It's the price he's awarded for keeping the biggest secret in the U.S.A. WHo killed JFK? anyhoo, I bet he runs against Obama. Or Obama does n ot want a second term. or If corporate America will not start hiring instead of firering like the enemy combatants they are trying to make it appear Obama is failing as President. But We the people know what is failing in this country and they stole all the money. Don't Buy stocks, hide your cash

[ivanthomson]

Thank God... somone who knows Specter for what he is.

[ivanthomson]

Dems can have that lying bastard! Decades of bullshit from Specter. Yeah the Republicans are probably dead now....good. Lying bastards. And now the Dems are in control in a one party dictatorship thinking they are gonna save the world/country and poor people...LOL!!! You dumb wankers...dems, republicans who gives a shit... they are all spending, lying, dictating bastards. Wake up already. Stop playing the ping-pong political distraction game.

[billyshake]

Thing is IVAN, there is a healthy split between conservative and liberal Democrats. They are what the congress is SUPPOSED to be. Without the crazy right wingers talking their Michelle Bachmann pyscho talk, maybe we can have rational arguments about serious things instead of the lipstick-on-a-pig crap we've had to deal with the last 8 years.

[ivanthomson]

Crazy right-wing, crazy-left wing. Both are crazy. There is no such thing as healthy democrats and there is no such thing as healthy ruplicans. They both go to Harvard, both belong to the same fraternities, the same country clubs, own the same companies in the same industries and both screw the American people pretty much in the same ways. Let's see is the taxes go down, or if they bother to reinstate the constitution, or do anything truely American. Because my guess is they won't.

[billyshake]

I totally get where you are coming from, Ivan, and I'd give my left arm for the U.S. to have a true multi-party system. But we have what we have and I feel like I'm choosing the lesser of two evils.

[Cuffsmaster]

billyshake - I agree, both parties spend our money the same. Hell no one is willing to run a lean and mean government or even try. But on social issues I became disgussed with the GOP, for among other things, their war on science and pushing of their fundamental religion. I left them because I'm not a fundamentalist and want less gov .spending. They offer nothing. At one time you count on the gop to spend less and be reasonable before the jesus freaks took over. No more.

[Cuffsmaster]

ivanthornson == what you said I agree with. you can't elect a GOP and expect him to behave in the important matter of actually running the government much different than a dem. They both love spending money we don't have. They only thing is that jesus freak republicans lie to everyone and claim to be conservative. They are just fundamentalist trying to push religion instead of running the gov.

[Mangina9000]

28% of Americans now identify themselves as Republican. SUCK ON IT, EVIL DOERS.

[Cuffsmaster]

I heard on CNN that it was 22 % -- I like my numbers better LOL ---

[Mangina9000]

"I heard on CNN that it was 22 % -- I like my numbers better LOL --- "

I've also read that 21% of Americans are now GOP cardholders, though 21-30% is a pretty nice range for me in general. Many Reagan Democrats have simply jumped ship. I'm amazed that they still believe that if they just repeat 2004 over again (Be Afraid, Be Greedy, Be Proud), they will win again. The Republican leadership simply has no concept of how things have changed.

[pozzerbob]

OMG I am gonna quit buying toilet paper

[tracer740]

XXXpimp- "Hope you people like big govt, because that is what is coming"??? where in fucking hell were you in the 80's? ... and in the last 8 years??? The so-called 'Republicans' grew our nation's government almost logarithmically! and for what purpose?... to enrich their sponsors and their holdings, all at the cost of the working-class people of our once-great America.

[RantVideos]

The U.S. government gave lots of tax breaks and left Corporations. BAnks etc. Like the capitalist wanted . No regulations or rules leaving it all up to them to follow moral values and the Capitalist proved they have no moral values, SO now you cry because AMerica is gonna start doing it's job and protect the PEOPLE! It's Capitalistic greed that faild to pay it's workers a cost of living wage, forcing credit use just to live and try to keep up. Which the banks gave easily.

[c588414]

Congratulations to Mr. Arlen Specter for seeing the light. Looks like the Senate Dems will be able to stop the Senate GOP from filibustering, and now President Obama will be able to get his legislation passed without any cock blocking from the GOP, especially after Franken is sworn in. With that said,

I guess Mr. Specter decided that " if you cant beat them, then join them." DEMS RULE!

[Cuffsmaster]

I actually have mixed emotions about Specteres move to the Dems. I don't blame him because the GOP is now a religious party and showed they don't know how to run a government. On the other hand I'm a conservative that wants trimmer gov. spending. SO it is sorta damned if you do and damned if you don't. for me. I left the GOP because of the radical fundamentalist values that spue as family values. It's now a religous party . There is no winner here in my opinion.

[john100174]

Demos dont want to debate with Rush he will eat them alive!!

[billyshake]

Sure. Because Rush makes "total sense" when he speaks. Come on, even Rush doesn't believe the crap that Rush says.

[RantVideos]

That's because he is high on qxycotin. Or Crispy creams

[billyshake]

Mmmm...(he says ala Homer S.)...Oxy contin...

I'd bet my left one Rush goes back to the drugs one day soon.

[piscesrising2006]

mitch mcconell is a dirt bag douche bag, and looks like a schnauzer, he needs to shut his trap.

[billyshake]

I disagree, sir! How dare you!? McConnell doesn't look like a schnauzer, he looks like a turtle!

[expatted]

Tea bag Mitch. He needs it.

[expatted]

The GOP dies a slow death.

[KosmicCitizen]

The U.S. already has big government. The Republican party has demonstrated quite clearly that they do not offer a counter-point to big government. The only difference between Republicans and Democrats is over who the primary beneficiaries of social welfare ought to be - normal citizens, or big capital.

Properly speaking, the entire political spectrum in the United States (GOP, Dems, Constitutionalists, Libertarians, etc.) is "LIBERAL", unless there is a U.S. "monarchist party" I'm unaware of.

[momardrame]

Whooohooo! Fuck bipartnership, I want Obama to run a dictatorship for the next 2 years. The GOP can hold all the tea parties they want but we don't need their approval or opinion anymore. We are now gonna run things our way.

[KosmicCitizen]

In essence, I agree. The screeching from the Republicans about "restraint" and "checks and balances" is hypocritical b.s. - this much is obvious.

Obviously this is not support for real "dictatorship" - soon enough, the American public will be able to show their pleasure or displeasure with at least part of the Democratic government they've elected - at the polls.

It's time for some decisive action. The GOP don't realize the campaign is over - they lost (for now.)

Enough with the games.

[momardrame]

The country doesn't need these retards and their middle age mindset. They claim that they are fighting for freedom, against taxation without representation blah blah blah. WTF? Is this 1786 or 2009. I say fuck 'em and ignore 'em

[tracer740]

So true, thanks for affirming what we all feel but few have verbalized. The Republican Party has lost its respect, its grounding and its common sense with an evolving society. It has become a party of self-serving, didactic and authoritarian miscreants. Its 'showbiz' spokesman shills on talkradio are shitting their pants as there is no place for them to go but down and out. Their shrill and vindictive BS these past 3 mo. has been tiresome and embarrassing but today it was unbelievable! Specter

[not8upwthit]

Another fag comes out of the closet !!!

So what

[expatted]

Rush came out?

Where's the video?

[doxyonr]

Spectors just saving his political ass.

[KosmicCitizen]

True, but this really is a better fit for him anyway. He is not speaking fancifully when he describes the ideological turn the Republican party has taken, though playing to the right is not exactly "new" in the Republican party (Nixon, "southern strategy".)

[Cuffsmaster]

Yes the racist democrats that didn't like civlil right laws pased in 1964 by LBJ turned GOP. The are destroying the party now. Just like in 1964 the love jesus but hate people. lol what a group and I am sure the democrats are glad they are gone.

[expatted]

By leaving the GOP-- the party of NO.

[dabom88]

"I think the danger of that for the country is that it wont be an automatic ability to restrain the excess that is typically associated with big majorities and single party rule"

Yeah, Mitch McConnell, it's A LOT LIKE 2001-2007 when the Republicans (like, and including, yourself) controlled the House, Senate, and the Presidency isn't it? I'm SURE you thought it was a HUGE danger for the country when the Republicans controlled the House, Senate, and Presidency in those years as well.

[fedorvonbock16]

this pig doesnt shock me

[uclaztec2]

Republicans can only blame themselves for the demise of their party. Zero accountability built on a platform of hate and anger can only go so far.

[lordcron]

You wasn't saying that when Bush had all the power and look what he done with it. This is now and will always be Bush's fuck up. Bush came into office with a surplus of money and left with trillion of dollars in debt to the point we have to spend our way out. This is Bushes fault and I'm gonna make sure everyone knows and completely understands that not just now but 4 years from now when it's time for re-election.
