“”We’ve learned today that Arlen Specter can abandon his party, but he just cant quit making Republican swift-boat attacks on the integrity of Democrats who served in our military,” Sestak also said in the statement. He added, “My question to Arlen Specter is this: do you regret voting for George Bush and John McCain? Why should Democrats support someone like you who actively campaigned as recently as last year for politicians with values like George W. Bush?” – CNN… “Specter: Sestak a ‘flagrant hypocrite’”
As a woman, every time I see Arlen Specter, all I can remember is his reprehensible double standard and flagrant character assassination against Anita Hill. That Hill was recently vindicated after Thomas weighed in that strip searching little girls is constitutional, you’d think Specter would be at least a little humble. But, no. It seems now that he’s got a real challenger for his Senate seat, he’s turned his vitriol from attacking women to attacking a military veteran.
Yeah, that’s my kind of Democrat.
SPECTER: I sure do. There’s still time for the Minnesota courts to do justice and declare Norm Coleman the winner.
But seriously, what is it about Republicans… er, I mean… Oh, right, Specter is now a “Democrat.” But it seems he just can’t quit opining like Rush Limbaugh, as he attacks a 35-year dedicated military man trying to find something with which to ding Joe Sestak’s resume.
Good luck with that.
I guess Specter learned well from Kurt Weldon, the guy Sestak demolished, especially once I published the piece that Weldon couldn’t figure out why he ducked the military.
This time it’s Specter, trying to make a story out of Sestak’s years as a Democrat, when as a leading military officer, party affiliation isn’t exactly something people in the U.S. Armed Forces parade around on their sleeve.
No doubt Arlen Specter would channel Rush and Dick Cheney in insulting Colin Powell too.
…and the weird part of it is, why in the world would Specter attack on political party loyalty? Considering he just became a Democrat in order to keep his job, I guess he thinks Pennsylvanians are stupid.
It seems Clarence Thomas’s patron can’t wait to put a veteran’s scalp next to Anita Hill’s.
Knowing quite a bit about Joe Sestak, I’d say Specter better gear up. He’s not a woman who you can basically call a liar, while acting as a beard for Clarence Thomas. The only Supreme Court justice who thinks strip searching little girls is constitutional.
