Not a good idea to pressure the President. Don't want his "capital" spent on something WE can buy. Let him keep his hands clean of this, so his first favor can be a good judge rather than a good chairman.

I'm a Catholic, but not a good one, but I am 100% Pro-Life - abortion is plain murder - simple as that.

Agreed. I would like to see specter step down. But this is utterly the wrong way to do it. Watch the cameras show up from the media. Crazy right wing Christian stories. If Specter does not get the Chairmanship now, it will be because Bush can't stand up to the crazy right-wing Christians.

THIS IS WRONG WRONG WRONG. THE FOLKS DOING THIS ARE GIVING THE LEFT THE HOOK THEY WANT.

BAD IDEA

Of course, appease the left. We have a tremendous history of success with this strategy. Why look, we have already overturned Roe vs. Wade. If only we give them what they want, we are sure to succeed. It works well with terrorists, look at Spain. We need to follow that example. I agree. Arlen Specter is the future of the conservative Republican right to life movement.

This is a stupid idea. FYI, getting rid of Spector is about a whole lot more than just the abortion issue. This sort of stunt just makes conservatives look like a bunch of weirdos.

The President is probably loving watching him melt as we throw water on him.

You are falling into a trap. Don't do this. See first what Frist and others do. They don't vote on these things until Congress convenes in January. Let's see how this plays out first.

Catechism of the Catholic Church and what it says about those who support abortion

What does this say about Senator Specter?

Prayer is a bad idea? Citizen activisim is a bad idea? Call me "crazy" or even a "crazy Christian", but I think we NEED to stand up and be counted.

Prayer and activism are "over-reacting"?
