You are correct.

IF the Rs wanted Specter handled, he’d be handled.

Specter is just the fall guy because they see him as safe.

The Republican Party is dead.

Collins, Snowe, Specter are PATRIOTIC Americans for voting with the Dems according to Harry.

Guess the BOY President can now claim it is a Bi-partisan bill.

I don’t think they removed ACORN or the health care part.

Sure it does.

McConnell is stuck with Specter.

Why groin him publicly?

So patriotism is now defined as voting for junk bills? The Democrats are a bunch of self-absorbed jerks.

They WANT socialism.

MOST Americans apparently DO WANT socialism and they want the eeevvill big businesses taken over by the Government. Then we can all work for the Government which of course will make everyone equal. This is what political correctness, taught in every school in America, has gotten for us - THEN END OF CAPITALISM. I never thought it would happen with such lightening speed. Before Nov 4 all the left wing wackos were deriding those of us that were calling BO a SOCIALIST. Now everyone is saying that is what they want. Explain that one.................the good old MSM drives this country. Hardly anyone reads anymore getting all their information fed to them through their eyeballs.

No he's not. Specter should be thrown under the bus.

Do you know if the socialized medicine was passed as presented in the Bloomberg article?

I’m so angry and disgusted at these hideous Rinos.

I hope they all become pariahs.

There is major hankie pankie going on. Has been for many years.

I read an article this morning mentioning that this deal was done last night by democrat staffers, no Republican participation at all. All of the glowing press reports are flagrantly false. Trying to find it now. Pretty cheezy all around though. I'm not gonna forget this.

It just never happens that way.

And McConnell is holding an extremely weak had right now.

Even this AM on “American Newsroom,” Sen. Tom Coburn (R - OK) told Megyn Kelly (who looked most fetching, by the way), that there was no stopping Porkulus, that Republicans lacked the votes.

Get real.

The only solution is to take out these RINOs in the primaries, not wait ‘til 4 years later, then demand their ouster.

You get real.

You think you are the team genius?

Stop shooting at your own people and aim in the other direction.

I take it that you do not watch any of the committee meetings carried on c-span. Every one is ham-fisted control by the democrat Chair, even to the point of belittling the Republican members.
I certainly have a grip, and don't for a minute think that any Republican input is even remotely considered as it now stands. Allowing these three (surprisingly no John McCain this time) to continuously vote with the democrats without any fear of reprisal is exercising ‘idiot logic’.

If that means taking out every fourth dem. in the general, then I'm with you.
