Sen. Arlen Specter is demanding an investigation into illegal spying operations that infringed upon the rights of Americans.
No, sillies, I’m not talking about the Protect America Act — the controversial bill (which the Republican Specter voted for) that gave unprecedented leeway to government officials to listen in on your phone calls and read your email. Yeah, Specter was all over that like a fat kid with cake.
He’s talking something much more important than personal privacy.
Instead, the Pennsylvania senator is demanding an inquiry into the New England Patriots’ secret videotaping of opposing NFL coaches’ signals on the sidelines — an affair sports writers have dubbed “Spygate.”
We are not making this up. Specter said such behavior, a violation of NFL rules, is damaging to the sport.
I don’t deny that Bill Belichick has turned the Pats into the Yankees of football, but let’s go for a little consistency here, buddy.


Wait just a damn minute. Fat kids like cake?
Specter is as much of a Republican as I am black. Sure, I listen to rap every once in a while but that doesn’t make me black. If there ever was a reason for the invention of the term RINO it is because of Specter.
Calling him an Uber-Republican is like calling Barack Hussein Obama an uber-conservative. It only shows your lack of knowledge with politics. Stick to something you know- like no talent whore celberities and the like.
I listen to rap once in a while too. And that makes ME black. You know like C Thomas Howell.

You sound like my ex-boyfriend.
Although I’d argue there as many no-talent whore politicians as there are celebrities. More, maybe.
Spector is a Republican much the same as John McCain is a Republican. John McCain, as the eventual nominee, is effectively the face of the Republican party, like it or lump it, so yes, Spector is a Republican. Conservatives aren’t Republicans and Republicans aren’t Conservatives.
A much better term for these clowns would be People’s Republicans, in the China sense. Put their votes on a Nolan chart and they’re clustered at the bottom, the same as communists.
