Would somebody remind Specter that the terrorists aren't American citizens; they are the enemy!

How in hell do we ever fight and win a war with Senators like this?

The same clown who had no trouble at all defending Ira Einhorn is deeply troubled by the prospect of 9th Century knuckledraggers having ladies underwear placed on their heads or being subjected to the Bay City Rollers at slightly increased volume.

Can we get rid of Specter?

Just another example on how/what/who/when that any member of that body shall never be President.

Did Nazi POWs get a hearing during WWII?

Although I have disagreed with McCain/Graham on this detainee rights situation, Specter is not all bad. He has taken an active role this Summer leading the charge to get the SEC to come clean on why the agency fired a senior attorney as he was about to proceed with prosecution of a Wall Street bigwig on charges of major insider trading violations by a major hedge fund. Judiciary Committee took the lead when Banking took a dive. Christopher Cox has been less that energetic in protecting regular investors from fleecing at the hands of the big guys. So far, Specter and Charles Grassley, along with Hatch and Bennett, all Republicans, are the only ones trying to get to the bottom of SEC's misconduct.

Thank you Andy Card you are truely the rino gift that keeps on giving. Thank God you are no longer advising the President.

[Purrcival]

OK, how is this Bush's F*up? Isn't our disagreement with Specter?

And by the way, I STILL don't understand why he replaced Orrin Hatch as the Judiciary chair. If someone could explain that to me, I would appreciate it.

We should give these terrorists the same "rights" that they give the people they are out there murdering. Specter is a real moron. A Commie 'RAT in and elephant suit.

Terroists..........SEC
Throat slitters....Weasels
I want someone that will deal with the most dangerous threat now; I don't think the nation is threatened by a "wall street bigwig" as much as the killers incarcerated. Screw Arlen, If he effes this up I hope he gets it first. It's a damn shame that most politicians are better media whores than Paris Hilton.
