Specter is a sphincter, stuck in the open position.

Sen. Arlen Specter, D-Pa., will vote for cloture on card check if the pro-union legislation comes up for a vote, he told businessmen Tuesday.
Specter’s vote alone is not likely to ensure passage of the bill, formally known as the Employee Free Choice Act, which would make union organizing radically easier. Democrats lack a 60-vote majority in the Senate, it has no Republican support and other Democrats are likely to oppose it. But Big Labor probably needed Specter to even have a chance.
Specter may be feeling political heat.

why do a card check reconciliation rider to the death care bill.
Aged whore, what a pathetic end to a career.
Arlen sold his soul.
Arlen Sphincter says what?
I’m certain decorum was the only thing keeping those businessmen from throwing things at Specter.
Since his party switch, he’s been a solid vote for every leftist initiative imaginable. He only took marginally non-leftist stances in the past because he knew what was expected of him as a Republican. What a completely unprincipled piece of trash.
Arlene, plying the trade of the oldest profession.
No, not quite. The sanitation department frowns on it when you put shit in your trash bins.

Specter to buck party, vote for stimulus ($6.5b pay to play?)
Scraton Times ^ | February 09, 2009 | BORYS KRAWCZENIUK
EXCERPT
Mr. Specter said he would have supported the (stimulus) package even if Democrats had not added $6.5 billion in additional money for the National Institutes of Health to the final version of the bill.
Mr. Specter had sought the money for years, and had mentioned that he wanted the money in the bill when he met with President Barack Obama last week.
A truly great statesman and man of honor he is.
Term and age limits .
Does 60 votes matter any more? We now have another US House with a few extra powers. Why, with majority rule, we can have a permanent dictatorship.
More odious emanations from Arlen Sphincter.
Being a Senator is the only thing keeping this guy alive. I would bet that if he fails to win reelection he will be dead in two years.
Spectre is buh-bye.
How many more days must we suffer this fool?
Do you mind if I use it?
