Oh my.

Oscar Wilde, the large-proboscised primitive, doesn't draw like he used to.

This bonfire's been lit for hours, and no primitives at it.

Regarding Specter: "Keep your friends close and your enemies closer."

Specter has done nothing more than virtually every other politician will do. He did what was necessary to remain an employed politician.

There are perhaps a handful of people I can think of who wouldn't sell their souls or eat their own children in order to remain in office. Ted Kennedy comes to mind, as does Bernie Sanders of Vermont, Barack Obama, and a handful of others.

Will Specter be another pain in the ass like Lieberman? Who knows. But better to have him in our big tent than in the Republican pup tent. And better to have him in a position where he can be controlled, to some degree, by chairmanship assignments and other perks.

Hopefully, after the next election or two, we'll have enough Dem Senators so that we can put Lieberman and Specter in a rowboat and send them out to go fishing. (Strike up "The Godfather" theme music.)

Who needs a rowboat? Just put them in the same car as Tubby Teddy. He'll take care of it.

Yeah...but, you were saying about the handful of people you were thinking of who wouldn't sell their souls or eat their own children in order to remain in office???

I had to read that like, about three times, before I was confident I understood the point Oscar Wilde was trying to make.

Exactly.  Those 3 would be elbowing others out of the way to be the first in line.

Other than that, the Oscar Wilde primitive wants to pop a couple of Senators in the back of the head, further demonstrating the fascist leanings of the left.
