Obama, Senator Specter, and the Embrace of Slime

Last week, Senator Arlen Specter, Republican from Pennsylvania, decided to switch parties from Republican to Democrat. Just a few short weeks ago, on March 18th, during a press conference he said, “To eliminate any doubt, I am a Republican, and I am running for reelection in 2010 as a Republican on the Republican ticket”. However on April 28th, Specter stated that “As the Republican party has moved farther and farther to the right, I have found myself increasingly at odds with the Republican philosophy and more in line with the philosophy of the Democratic party”.

So what happened in those few short weeks? Did the “red states” decide to secede from the Union? Did the GOP authorize the killing of millions of people? Did the Republican party take over control of the country? Nope. Nope. Nope. Nothing at ALL happened with the Republican party except they seemed to reject left leaning Arlen Specter and polls show that a true conservative was beating the pants off of him.

Specter himself during the April 28th press conference made the following statement; “I have surveyed the sentiments of the Republican party in Pennsylvania and public opinion polls, and have found that the prospects for winning a Republican primary are bleak”.

So, by his own admission, he abandoned his party for one that he thought he could possibly win. Excuse me? So you are at odds with them, why? Notice no mention of specifics. Just a statement that he could not win with Republicans, so he decided to switch sides.

Now all of this is interesting (and disgusting) enough, but then, the Democrats embraced him. Obama himself said, “Today I have the honor of standing next to the newest Democratic senator from Pennsylvania”.

So, Obama, you are HONORED to stand beside a deserter of his party, a traitor to his constituents, and a thief of the GOP’s money? Obama, you sure do keep yourself in good company, huh? Well, Democrats, you can have him. He is slime, but I would expect nothing else from someone that Obama embraces. I can’t imagine the GOP slobbering over someone who has no qualms whatsoever about being all of the things listed above. We have more pride and more respect for ourselves than that.

Deserter: A person who leaves or runs away. Check
Traitor: One who violates his allegiance. Check
Thief: One who steals without force. Check

Senator Specter ran on the Republican ticket and because he was an extremely moderate Republican, he won. Citizens voted for him because he portrayed himself to be slightly right of moderate. They trusted him to protect their integrity, but he has proven to them that he has none. He also took lots and lots of money from the Republican party for his election bids. This would be equivalent to me raising money for Mercy Ministries and then deciding to give that money to Planned Parenthood because I hope to get a better job there. It’s repugnant, immoral, and completely liberalistic…but I repeat myself.

Here’s the catch…the reason that Senator Specter switched parties was that a real conservative was challenging him in the primary. THIS is what should scare the liberals. Since the election of Obama, and the way that he has tried to socialize this country, the conservative movement has come out in full force. 2010 is going to be huge for conservatives. Many democrats (like Arlen Specter) and several left leaning Republicans (like John McCain), are going to be handed their walking papers. This is a fact. This is why Specter jumped ship. He knew he could not challenge a true conservative because the people, after just a few short months, are sick and tired of the libs trashing America to other countries. They are sick of the out of control spending, the push for socialization and fallacy behind global warming.

Rachel Maddow and Bawny Fwank are touting the demise of the GOP. The amusing thing is, that with the defection of 30 year Senator Arlen Specter, they should be afraid…very, very, afraid. He did not leave because he was at odds with the party. In his own words, he left because his prospects are bleak. Even in left leaning Pennsylvania.

Libs, we have regrouped. You will not have the minority population coming out in droves for the next election (like the last one) and the country is already tired of your socialist dictators. We are stronger than I have ever been aware of in my life. A resurgence is coming…a bible clinging, gun toting, vet loving, right wing extremist resurgence.
