hello america! it is with great pleasure that i am able to say that sen arlen-sellout-specter finally
got what he deserved. 29 years in the business & he's just now learning that the democrats promise you one thing & give you another.
my fellow country people, this is politics at its best. apparently obama & sen harry-we-don't-need-stronger-regulatory-measures-reid had promised specter that he would be able to retain his seniority once he switched sides. &, as soon as he did, they stripped him-making him a junior senator. they even took his chairmanship from his---he lost a lot of power with his stupid switch, & now, he's at the mercy of the democrats, & this is why. the dems turned on him just like he turned his back on the repubs.
the dems have told him that he can regain his seniority---if he wins the 2010 election---the dem caucus can vote it to him. however, there are some issues that will be decided before then & his vote will be needed for the dems to push their crap down our throats. if he doesn't vote their way, he doesn't get his status back &, if he does vote their way between now & then, they won't need him after 2010. either way, i think he's screwed & he deserves it.
i don't see him telling the republicans that he made a mistake & asking them to take him back---besides, we don't need him. also, the damage is already done & his chairmanship will go to somebody else regardless of what he does.
the sad part of all of this is, specter switched parties because he could not win the up-coming 2010 election as a republican. he did for personal reasons---pure greed because, as a junior democrat, his political life career is at close to the end.
america. what the dems are doing to specter is the same as what they are doing to our country. obama & the rest of the dems tell us one thing & then do another. they said they don't want to own banks & yet, they do. in fact, they gave them money under one plan & have now changed it
so that the banks can't return the money thus, obama retains control of them. the same thing with gm & chrysler.
this country is in bad shape when the president can force ceo's to step down, force a company to be bought out by a foreign company & won't let companies repay the money they owe.
