I obey firearms laws. If you are on my front doorstep and knocking, I

It's sorta fun to watch the current iteration of GOP head over Niagara
Falls sans barrel.

Maybe the GOP will be born again, but without the Crazy Christians and
the neocons.

WASHINGTON – Several officials say veteran Republican Sen. Arlen Specter
of Pennsylvania intends to switch parties, advancing his own hopes of
winning a new term next year while pushing Democrats one step closer to
a 60-vote filibuster-resistant majority.


The sources said an announcement could come later in the day — or
Wednesday. The officials who provided the information did so on
condition of anonymity, saying they were not authorized to discuss his
plans.


Specter is a 79-year-old veteran of five Senate terms, and one of only a
handful of moderate Republicans left in Congress in a party made up
largely of conservatives.

Statement by Senator Arlen Specter


I have been a Republican since 1966. I have been working extremely hard
for the Party, for its candidates and for the ideals of a Republican
Party whose tent is big enough to welcome diverse points of view. While
I have been comfortable being a Republican, my Party has not defined who
I am. I have taken each issue one at a time and have exercised
independent judgment to do what I thought was best for Pennsylvania and
the nation.


Since my election in 1980, as part of the Reagan Big Tent, the
Republican Party has moved far to the right. Last year, more than
200,000 Republicans in Pennsylvania changed their registration to become
Democrats. I now find my political philosophy more in line with
Democrats than Republicans.


When I supported the stimulus package, I knew that it would not be
popular with the Republican Party. But, I saw the stimulus as necessary
to lessen the risk of a far more serious recession than we are now
experiencing.


Since then, I have traveled the State, talked to Republican leaders and
office-holders and my supporters and I have carefully examined public
opinion. It has become clear to me that the stimulus vote caused a
schism which makes our differences irreconcilable. On this state of the
record, I am unwilling to have my twenty-nine year Senate record judged
by the Pennsylvania Republican primary electorate. I have not
represented the Republican Party. I have represented the people of
Pennsylvania.


I have decided to run for re-election in 2010 in the Democratic primary.


I am ready, willing and anxious to take on all comers and have my
candidacy for re-election determined in a general election.


I deeply regret that I will be disappointing many friends and
supporters. I can understand their disappointment. I am also
disappointed that so many in the Party I have worked for for more than
four decades do not want me to be their candidate. It is very painful on
both sides. I thank specially Senators McConnell and Cornyn for their
forbearance.


I am not making this decision because there are no important and
interesting opportunities outside the Senate. I take on this complicated
run for re-election because I am deeply concerned about the future of
our country and I believe I have a significant contribution to make on
many of the key issues of the day, especially medical research. NIH
funding has saved or lengthened thousands of lives, including mine, and
much more needs to be done. And my seniority is very important to
continue to bring important projects vital to Pennsylvania's economy.


I am taking this action now because there are fewer than thirteen months
to the 2010 Pennsylvania Primary and there is much to be done in
preparation for that election. Upon request, I will return campaign
contributions contributed during this cycle.


While each member of the Senate caucuses with his Party, what each of us
hopes to accomplish is distinct from his party affiliation. The American
people do not care which Party solves the problems confronting our
nation. And no Senator, no matter how loyal he is to his Party, should
or would put party loyalty above his duty to the state and nation.


My change in party affiliation does not mean that I will be a party-line
voter any more for the Democrats that I have been for the Republicans..
Unlike Senator Jeffords' switch which changed party control, I will not
be an automatic 60th vote for cloture. For example, my position on
Employees Free Choice (Card Check) will not change.


Whatever my party affiliation, I will continue to be guided by President
Kennedy's statement that sometimes Party asks too much. When it does, I
will continue my independent voting and follow my conscience on what I
think is best for Pennsylvania and America.

59 seats and counting...if Franken is seated, that makes a filibuster
proof Democratic majority in the Senate on many Democratic issues, and a
further decline for the crazy conservative Republicans.- Hide quoted text -

As opposed to a criminal congress bought and paid for by big
corporations like GE and lazy union bitches... I guess your ideal
government is one that doesn't reach across the isle,


from 2000-2006 the GOP had

-the presidency
-the congress (both houses)
-roughly about 35 governorships
-appointed 7 of 9 supreme court justices

and they turned the US into a banana republic (see the article by
former IMF economist, and MIT prof simon johnson at:
http://www.theatlantic.com/doc/200905/imf-advice) for the benefit of
the rich bankers who ran the GOP.

they have only themselves to blame.

What are you going to do with the ammo? If you fill out the federal form
honestly, you won't be able to buy a handgun.

my hometown is pittsburgh. having seen what the gun crowd did to
police officers there recently, i'm even more inclined to advocate
repeal of the 2nd amendment. the more i see about gun nuts, the more i
know the 2nd is dangerous for freedom.

of course, he is not interested in discussion, only trolling...

Unfortunately, there is no psychological testing for suitability to buy
a firearm.


If there were, you certainly wouldn't have one.

Harry, you've stated right here in this forum that you answer your
door with a shotgun. Are you going to deny that you said that?
