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.

This is just the sort of imbalanced jerk that psychological tests for
gun ownership *should ferret out as a threat to himself and others.

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.


The need for militias went out the window when the US decided to
maintain standing armies in the 1950s.

I still consider hunting an honorable pursuit if it's not just for
sport but for sustenance.

The NRA, gun manufacturers and politicians end up protecting
vigilantes. Until they're personally affected by one of these
paranoid idiots, they'll continue to succumb to political pressure.

What they've allowed is a profusion of weapons, many of which are now
making into the hands of less responsible or ill-intentioned humans.

It's screwed up and out of control.

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.


good move for him as many of us moderate democrats have been voting
for him for years. glad to see he recognized the reality.

and it looks like the GOP in PA may be dying, or at least becoming a
party of angry white conservative males...http://
tpmdc.talkingpointsmemo.com/2009/04/why-specter-did-it----and-had-to-
do-it.php

doesn't bode well for the GOP in PA


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.

The barrel is being provided courtesy Boner, Cantor, McConnell,
Limbaugh, Hannity and Beck.

They've marginalized the party to the point of being small enough to,
as Grover Norquist once pined, "drown in a bathtub."

In soccer this is referred to as an own goal.

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.


The Dems can have Specter. He'll be a credit to the party, I am sure.
(barf)
He has only one thing and one person's interests in mind and to hell with
anyone else, Republican or Democrat. Good riddance.

Yes, and Boner, Cantor, McConnell and Gingrich are selfless.

They have nothing to do with it.
Anybody who is a fan of and follows the New England Patriots has no love for

The Patriots were good enough to win without cheating. If you want to
direct your anger towards someone, I think your man is Belichick.

Have you become sensitive to Republican senators passing judgement on
American's morals?

You don't want to go there. Specter's "morals" had nothing to do with
Belichick and everything to do with his relationship with cable companies
and who butters the bread.

That's what our fine congress is paid to do, look out for their

Hope he takes the Sob Sisters from Maine with him.

It's going to be sooooo much fun watching him lose his seat.

To another Democrat in the primary?

We'd be pleased to have the Sob Sisters. By losing all three moderate
R's would be further marginalized and viewed as a party which caters
only to hard core righties.

With the baptists exiting and the evangelicals catching on, the only
large blocs will be the rich and the poor suckers.

A beer sponsorship may help keep the suckers in line. I recommend a
call to Peter Coors, son of Adolf.
