Wacky Spin Doctoring: Specter Says He Saved an Entire Generation of Scientists & Could Have Saved Jack Kemp’s Life… Who Do You Think You’re Fooling?

The stench of hubris is in the air. And the stench of political spin doctors.
According to Sen. Arlen “Benedict Arlen” Specter, we were about to lose a whole generation of scientists. But he stopped the exodus and got that entire generation of scientists enthusiastic with his health care views. What a guy.
Arlen, you say you could have saved also Jack Kemp’s life? But then, the GOP didn’t share your prophetic views and endorse your spending proposal, so they let him die?
Wow. That’s just pure evil.
Like Darth Vader. Like Lex Luther.
Which would make you… Luke Skywalker. Or Superman.
And, THAT’S why, Arlen, you switched from the GOP to the Democrat party? Not to save your scrawny butt like we all thought because your poll numbers with voters are about knee-high to a grasshopper?
So glad you set the record straight, Arlen, and let us know what a gifted, compassionate visionary you are and how vile and villainous the GOP is… NOT.
Turncoat.
You must have the same weaselly PR spin doctor who finally came up with an explanation about the White House’s Air Force One flyover in New York City: it was a (cough) training exercise. But took a week to “discover” it. Like your almost week-long silence, until now, when you announce the “real” reason you left to join the Democrats. You did it for good, for humanity, for Kemp. Not to salvage your evaporating political career, which, you’ll agree, is not at all what Luke Skywalker would have done when faced with the Death Star, right?
You leaving is no loss. You’ve been a Democrat posing as a Republican for a very long time. And now, you’re a delusional Democrat.
Who do you think you’re fooling? The state of Pennsylvania?
Now, if only Senators Olympia Snow and Susan Collins from Maine could discover a cure for cancer so that they, too, can defect…
