This morning, Pennsylvania Sen. Arlen Specter decided to leave the Republican Party — saying it “has moved far to the right” — and join the Democrats. President Obama was informed of Specter’s decision this morning and called to welcome him to the party. White House sources told ABC News that Specter pledged loyalty to Obama’s agenda:
At 10:32am, President Barack Obama reached Specter and told him “you have my full support” and “thrilled to have you.”
Specter told the president, “I’m a loyal Democrat. I support your agenda.”
Just hours later, however, Specter reaffirmed his unfounded opposition to Obama’s pick to head the Office of Legal Counsel, Dawn Johnsen:
Q: How are going to vote on the Dawn Johnsen confirmation?
SPECTER: I’m opposed to the nominee for Assistant Attorney General in the Office of Legal Council, Dawn Johnsen.
Watch it:
Johnsen has been a tireless advocate for limited executive power firmly bounded by law, not to mention a strong torture opponent — concerns Specter purportedly shares. In March, while still a Republican, Specter said that filibustering Johnsen was “under consideration,” though he never explained the basis for his opposition. Indeed, Specter declared his opposition to Johnsen just seconds after explaining that his opposition to warrantless wiretapping and Bush’s interrogation tactics were part of his decision to leave the GOP.
Rumor in Washington has it that Sen. Daniel Inouye (D-HI) may step down from the chairmanship of the Appropriations Committee, giving the seat to Sen. Pat Leahy (D-VT) — and opening the chairmanship of the Judiciary Committee to the new Democrat, Specter. From this post, Specter could indefinitely delay hearings on Johnsen, not to mention completely kill Leahy’s efforts to hold a truth commission to examine Bush’s use of torture and other illegal practices.
Specter also reaffirmed his opposition to the Employee Free Choice Act today. Apparently to Specter, opposing progressive legal nominees and stomping on workers’ rights is all part of proving he is a “loyal Democrat” in support of Obama’s agenda.
SUPRISE!
April 28th, 2009 at 7:46 pmSpecter is now a DINO covering over a RINO body! How confusing!!!!
April 28th, 2009 at 7:48 pmDawn Johnsen is an excellent choice. I’m looking forward to her confirmation.
April 28th, 2009 at 7:49 pmI wonder who specter thinks he’s fooling?
He’s going to lose bigtime. dems ain’t as stupid as teabaggers.
April 28th, 2009 at 7:50 pmWe don’t want the rats in politics anymore, regardless of whos colors they wear. After what they have done they can’t just cross the isle.
April 28th, 2009 at 7:51 pmWhat the hell is going on? Dems being Republicans, Republicans becoming Dems. Is this a two party system OR a system of political opportunists.
April 28th, 2009 at 7:52 pmWell, if Arlen won’t get on the bus he’ll get flattened by it in 2010. I do not believe Arlen is going to pull too much BS out of his a$$ by behaving like a Psuedo-Dem. He won’t be able to get away with much – too many eyes are on him. Especially those who feel he’s made the switch for the wrong reason – i.e. getting re-elected in 2010.
April 28th, 2009 at 7:55 pmTo be a repug is to be a freakin liar.
It ain’t his freakin party.
Coming around here stinkin up our party.
Is there a site up yet called GTFOOHspecky?
April 28th, 2009 at 7:57 pmSince Spector is a veteran Senator I was wondering what the behind the scenes nogotations on a Chairmanship might be. My biggest fear was the Judicary Committee. Ouch, it looks like worst case scenario to me. My guess is he will pull back from some of his recent statements but Judicary is problematic, any way you cut it.
April 28th, 2009 at 8:00 pmIt looks like Limbaugh is still at the center of the evaporating republican black hole. He says good riddance to the moderates.
April 28th, 2009 at 8:01 pmWhen I first heard this, this morning, I said, “I give it 4-6 hours to turn out to be a hoax.” I over-estimated.
Why in the world do we keep electing, listening to andgiving air time to idiots and bums?
April 28th, 2009 at 8:01 pmWho wants to bet by the end of the week Michael Steele will announce to the nation, “The republican party has changed it’s name. Please now call it the “Democratic Party”. Thank you and good night!”.
April 28th, 2009 at 8:02 pmThe republicans are thowing out the RHINO label. More to come.
April 28th, 2009 at 8:04 pmSpecter has NEVER, EVER, EVER BEEN a man of his word!!!
April 28th, 2009 at 8:04 pmWell, if Gillibrand could evolve, it’s possible Specter will do the same. I mean he needs to score the Democratic nomination next year so he’s gotta evolve or be extinguished. I think that he’s still running on GOP autopilot or he has concerns about Dawn Johnsen that he still wants cleared up. I hope he can adjust to his new party status and find his niche.
April 28th, 2009 at 8:05 pmHey Ape-Man:
Lamebaugh had a nerve to say take McCain and his daughter too.
April 28th, 2009 at 8:06 pmLOL! Now he can step up and be the truly new face of the GOPers as he’s always been anyway!
Did Specter cross over because of a 53% rating in PA?
Let’s hope the people in PA look at his voting record rather than only the ‘D’ behind his name when choosing a Senator for their primary of ‘10.
April 28th, 2009 at 8:06 pmAnother thing, if Specter gets shady on EFCA, the good DEMOCRATIC citizens of PA will bypass him on election day. Arlen can’t afford to get “brand new” on issues that affect Americans.
April 28th, 2009 at 8:07 pmIt was Specter that single handly gave us the WORST SUPREME COURT JUSTICE IN HISTORY….
CLARENCE THOMAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
April 28th, 2009 at 8:08 pmCalm down, Dixieblood. >_>
April 28th, 2009 at 8:12 pmAlso, I think Proud here is a spy sent by O’Reilly. XD Just kidding, but seriously, he is pretty out of place here. *points to comment #21*
April 28th, 2009 at 8:12 pmOoooo… that would explain their extensive efforts to re-brand the opposition as the “Democrat Party” — so they could grab the proper “Democratic Party” for themselves.
They’re DIABOLICAL!
April 28th, 2009 at 8:13 pmWell, looks like Lieberman is not the only “pain in
April 28th, 2009 at 8:14 pmthe a**” for the Democratic Party now! :-(((
All the trolls sound like one troll.
April 28th, 2009 at 8:14 pmIt’s more believable that Specter has a conscience to be spooked by the tactics of today’s losing republican party, than the meme being pushed of his “moderate” views driving him to the democratic party. He’s something less of a far-right winger, but he’s no moderate.
If Pennsylvania didn’t have a democratic senator already, then Specter would have a great chance to convince voters of his switched party affiliation. Fortunately, however, the voters don’t have to scrimp– they have registration numbers and the Casey model to make their choice.
I fully appreciate this act of no-confidence of the GOP from Specter, but shouldn’t joining the other major party be based on political convictions and not necessarily a waltz-in winning strategy?
April 28th, 2009 at 8:15 pmHas Proud’s Magic Eightball been correct about anything yet?
April 28th, 2009 at 8:16 pmYes on EFCA or out he goes in ‘10.
April 28th, 2009 at 8:16 pmThanks but no thanks.
If Obama has a “plan” to reconcile the union vote, it better be apparent by then.

April 28th, 2009 at 8:19 pmProud Says:
Don’t mind me I’m just hating that folks are jumping off the GOPer ship to keep from drowning in FAILURE and EXCESSIVE WINGNUTTERY.
April 28th, 2009 at 8:20 pmActually, Proud, Harry Reid may give him the Judiciary chairmanship. Since you are deliberately ignorant, I’ll remind you that we don’t approve of Harry’s leadership. If fact, his chances of reelection in his own home state don’t look peachy keen.
Ralph’s comment this morning took the cake (paraphrasing): this is more a further blow to the republican party than it is a boon for the democrats.
April 28th, 2009 at 8:21 pmSo you’re here to vouch for Specter and Clarence Thomas?
Why?
Or are you just trying to “discount” my emotions like a typical male?
Calm down? Really? Am I hysterical? Should I have a hysterectomy? So I can “calm down?”
April 28th, 2009 at 8:22 pmSpecter told the president, “I’m a loyal Democrat. I support your agenda.”
– - Uh huh, it’s a snap to switch allegiance from the Corleones to the Tattaglias.
April 28th, 2009 at 8:22 pmWhile Arlen will still be voting like a blue dog, the upside of this is the message to the GOP: You have moved too far right for me. The sad thing is that they will move even farther right to prove him wrong, in their delusional minds.
April 28th, 2009 at 8:25 pmIt was Specter that single handly gave us the WORST SUPREME COURT JUSTICE IN HISTORY….
– - He topped that decades earlier with his Magic Bullet Theory on Kennedy’s assassination.
April 28th, 2009 at 8:25 pmCan we send Specter back? Or how about he and Lieberman starting their own party, call it “The National Weasel ME ME ME Part” The only thing you can expect out of Arlen is to do whatever he feels is best for Arlen. His word is as short as his nose.
April 28th, 2009 at 8:26 pmBadmoonman,
Thank you for that post at #36…his first scumbag power grab!!! I will never, ever trust this bastard!!!
Thanks again.
April 28th, 2009 at 8:27 pmProud Says:
He changed parties for two reasons, first of all he wants to get re-elected in a dem state, and secondly he knows how stupid the Dims are, they will give him the chairmanship of the judiciary committee
In agreement he wants to get re-elected as being affiliated with the goppers is certainly a guaranteed loss for anyone.
But in no way will he replace Leahy.
April 28th, 2009 at 8:28 pmJeez people, give him a few days. His staffers have a lot of policy statements to re-draft.
April 28th, 2009 at 8:28 pmHe’s had years and no spine!
April 28th, 2009 at 8:28 pmLet’s say Arlen became the democratic nominee and Toomey the republican nominee? Given the current polling numbers, wouldn’t be better for the Republicans to boot Spector in the primaries instead of moving the carnage up to the general where Arlen and the Dems would go down?
April 28th, 2009 at 8:30 pmAre those links to foreign porn sites? I’m not gonna look.
April 28th, 2009 at 8:37 pmWe should accept Specter, but also support Joe Sestak in the PA Senate primary. Let them battle for the Democratic primary fair and square, with the voters of Pennsylvania deciding. I hope the Party leadership does not block the much more reliable Admiral Sestak for the Senate seat just to save Specter.
April 28th, 2009 at 8:39 pmShould I have a hysterectomy

April 28th, 2009 at 8:56 pmThe Spector deal has little to do with with ideology for those who seek ideological purity. Why it is interesting is more on the psychological impact it potentially has on an already adrift and confused GOP
April 28th, 2009 at 8:59 pmI’m watching Specter’s press conference on Rachel Maddow’s show. Specter was calling for a rebellion and an uprising in the republican party against those who are trying to ‘purify’ the party. Rise against those wingnuts! LOLOLOL This is tooo hilarious! Specter’s defection is more of a blow to those wingnut GOPers than to the Democratic Party! My son just gave me a bowl of popcorn! ROTFL!

Welcome aboard Chess, TP is, to me, a loosely knit group and we often disagree with one another but find that a good thing instead of a bad one.

April 28th, 2009 at 9:13 pmThe Spector deal has little to do with with ideology for those who seek ideological purity. -=DBA=-
Im not yet sure what to think of Spector…
April 28th, 2009 at 9:16 pmSen. Arlen Specter has done a fair job of representing a bipartisan state. I have voted for him every time he has been up for election. I have no regrets. This could be indicative of the Republicans pushing out anyone who does follow the line. It could be that Specter will be the first in a string of defections. These senior senators keep taking marching orders from old Rush. I don’t think it will hold for long.
April 28th, 2009 at 9:24 pmI have NO problem with Spector changing over . . . he should get in line with EVERY OTHER NEW Democratic Senator and earn his FUTURE Committee appointments . . . . why rush the new “Junior Democtaric Senator” into a position he might not be suited to hold?
April 28th, 2009 at 9:24 pmThe guy’s still allowed to have his own opinions, right?

April 28th, 2009 at 9:30 pmI have a problem with wingnut senators who are holding up the appointment of Dawn Johnsen for ideological reasons. Keep in mind that women’s rights have been the law for over thirty years. Like it or not, nobody should be penalized for agreeing with a law. The troubling part is that she opposed increased executive powers and torture. I wonder if the wingnuts who voted with Bush Cheney all those years are trying to help them in anyway they can.

I would have no problem with him voting with the Republicans now and again, but I have a BIG problem with him “joining” the Democratic Party and then voting against cloture on their bills. That is not right. He shouldn’t block things from coming to a vote just because he’s going to lose. That’s not Democracy, that Elementary School Sandbox Behavior.
Right now, he’s just using the Democratic Party for his own selfish purposes: to get re-elected to the Senate. Pennsylvania Democrats would be wise to nominate someone else, and let the good Senator retire.

Thats untrue, the service and healthcare sectors are growing.

April 28th, 2009 at 10:15 pmThere is nothing whatsoever “Earth-ending” about the year 2012. The only thing that will happen is that the Sun will rise (on Dec 21, I believe) in alignment with the center of the Milky Way Galaxy. This is when the Earth’s travels through the Galaxy bring it into a new Astronomical Age.
So, neither the Mayans, nor Nostradamus, nor anyone else who thinks the world’s gonna end in 2012 are right. The only thing that could happen to humanity is a self-fulfilling prophecy, one where someone sets off a cataclysmic event just to bring about the “end of the world” (but, really, they mean the end of human life on Earth) as “predicted.” The more talk there is of the world ending in 2012, the more likely something like that might happen.
As a species, we have evolved way beyond the need to believe our fate is written in the stars. It’s time to start acting like it.

April 28th, 2009 at 10:21 pmYes, we have shortage of primary care physicians. Instead of ridiculing the problem, propose a viable solution. I have one: carefully admit more students into public medical schools, encourage the same enrollment growth in private ones, and root out students with the aptitude for shortage fields and place incentives so they can declare those specialties (ie, student loan relief).
Which brings me to another point: if doctors in a free-market based health system are exiting, what does that say about for-profit health care?

Aanother “new” troll to celebrate the purification of the Holy Party? Spin till you puke, trolls. The defection of a U.S. Senator, so close after a brutal election defeat, is a crushing blow even if the remaining base is too effing stupid to realize it.

I’ve been waiting for you to show up with your psychobabble!
You too philip50 – you fools love the verbal whippings.”
My response: By verbal whippings, you mean the ignorant, profane rantings so prolific on here? I will confess it is humorous, though very sad, to see you close-minded Bush-derangement psychos get all worked up. Some of you are probably already on death-row, or will be soon judging by the spewing of hatred and the amazing amount of time you have to do it.
I tell you what I love: I love the Truth, even if it is not convenient, or PC. I love people who demonstrate respect for others, even those with whom they may not see eye to eye. I love loyalty and conviction (qualities that Sen. Specter appears to lack.). I love learning a new way of looking at things, even if does not fit with my convenient view of the world.
I believe that strength lies in flexibility, being willing to change and grow, and being open to new concepts. You are, by and large, a very shallow and weak bunch of cowardly people, which your predictable response to me will undoubtedly confirm. I can hardly wait.
April 28th, 2009 at 10:56 pmbrothabildo,
your blog was quite interesting. Frankly, you’re not alone in your thinking. The reality is discourging. Capitalism went speculative, and the honest persuits of people have been diminished. I hope the country can be steered back to a productive path. There are no quick fixes. We didn’t get here overnight. I am pragmatic, but I am an optimist.

April 28th, 2009 at 10:59 pmSen. Specter’s opposition to Dawn Johnsen’s appointment to OLC is another example of his lack of fitness in the Democratic Party. This is why we need more than two enduring political parties as exist in most democracies around the world.
April 28th, 2009 at 11:01 pmRumor in Washington has it that Sen. Daniel Inouye (D-HI) may step down from the chairmanship of the Appropriations Committee, giving the seat to Sen. Pat Leahy (D-VT) — and opening the chairmanship of the Judiciary Committee to the new Democrat, Specter. From this post, Specter could indefinitely delay hearings on Johnsen, not to mention completely kill Leahy’s efforts to hold a truth commission to examine Bush’s use of torture and other illegal practices.

You love that Rush or someother screechmonkey does your thinking for you and you have no brain just a tape recorder where a brain usually resides.

Nice try to insult us then tell us how OUR response will confirm something. If I walk into a bar and punch someone it isnt that impressive a feat to predict I will get into a fight.

You are definitly a moron. Very simplistic in your thinking and I use that term thinking in its broadest possible usage. You will never know if anyone here is open to other ideas.

That is right you came in and insulted us and then predicted that we wouldnt treat YOU with respect and pat your pointy little head. This is actually pretty simple.

Yeah I just dont stay up nights worrying about what you think about me. It isnt hard to guess how I am going to treat an ignorant cowardly punk like you.

You are a punkass troll and a particularly stupid one at that. You know it. I know it. Anyone that can read knows it. What kind of moron posts the idiotic insults you posted then tries to pretend he is above it all and has some kind of intellectual curiosity. You are a poser. You are stupid. It is clear. You KNOW you are too stupid to try intellectual give and take so you poison the dialogue then whine and snivel like the punk you are that WE are going to be mean to you.

Oh, there you are, Eugene! Thank you for your honest assessment. Now I can sleep well! Don’t choke on your own vomit!
April 28th, 2009 at 11:53 pmIt occurs to me that Specter probably wants to keep his positions on open, short-term issues mostly the same even though he’s switching parties. Reversing a large number of his opinions quickly will make it look like he never really believed in anything in the first place. So we’re left with him still supporting a few things (like this) that he only supported due to party loyalty in the first place – now he’s got an opinion hanging with no reason whatsoever for it.
After a while, it should play itself out and he’ll probably start making a little more sense.

I can’t wait to see if you can pull it off.

WOW. Ya gotta admire the guys hutzpa on the other hand making sense is obviously not his strong suit. At what point did people like Mitch lose so much respect for the intelligence of the American people that he thinks he can say things like this and not be laughed off the planet. It is a threat to the country for Republicans to lose all the elections????? The man needs professional help

The USA is as doomed and as likely as you becoming a lesbian b/c you cant stand liberal men, who are all bisexual anyways and spread HIV to the rest of the world while they snort coke and other drugs that destroy South America and the environment.
But while still high on the drugs you sell to S. American drug cartels.
You have it backwards sir, and I for one am offended!
Our lesbians and bisexual liberal men with HIV purchase drugs from S. American cartels!
Keep it straight next time.
But do, please go on. You’re on SUCH a roll!
April 29th, 2009 at 1:01 amSwear It
My mother swore ripely, inventively
a flashing storm of American and Yiddish
thundering onto my head and shoulders.
My father swore briefly, like an ax
descending on the nape of a sinner.
But all the relatives on my father’s
side, gosh, they said, goldarnit.
What happened to those purveyors
of soft putty cussing, go to heck,
they would mutter, you son of a gun.
They had limbs instead of legs.
Privates encompassed everything
from bow to stern. They did
number one and number two
and eventually, perhaps, it.
It has always amazed me there are
words too potent to say to those
whose ears are tender as baby
lettuces–often those who label
us into narrow jars with salt and
vinegar, saying, People like them,
meaning me and mine. Never say
the K or N word, just quietly shut
and bolt the door. Just politely
insert your foot in the Other’s face.

Tell me how you can spend yourself into debt and save your economy lol?
I am not your personal economics textbook. But I highly recommend you skim over one sometime.
April 29th, 2009 at 1:13 amBrotha— I have a job. I have been to college. I have known some world-class scholars and professors. You are not well-educated. You are not articulate. Your thought process is disorderly and repetitive to such a degree that I have to wonder, in all seriousness, if you have an affective disorder.
I have flagged you because you cannot stay on topic at all, you have been posting the same rant for days, and you are very close to announcing that you can eat glass.
April 29th, 2009 at 1:16 amAn economics textbook? Brotha also described med school as countless hours in front of textbooks. I wonder what community college he went to?
April 29th, 2009 at 1:23 amWhat “real” intellectual discussion, brotha? You’ve done nothing but rant. There is no brilliance in your posts. I know it may be hard for you to believe, but we’ll get along fine without you.
April 29th, 2009 at 1:29 amArlen Spector is and always has been a absolute stinking piece of shit… I hope the Democrats pay a heavy political price for selling us out! Here’s a quote from Glen Greenwald that puts this into context:
“Arlen Specter is one of the worst, most soul-less, most belief-free individuals in politics. The moment most vividly illustrating what Specter is: prior to the vote on the Military Commissions Act of 2006, he went to the floor of the Senate and said what the bill “seeks to do is set back basic rights by some 900 years” and is “patently unconstitutional on its face.” He then proceeded to vote YES on the bill’s passage.”

Dude, you are SOOOOOOOOOO full of sh*t, little jets of it squirt out your ears every time one of your feet hits the ground.
April 29th, 2009 at 1:45 amI think that the Democratic party needs to make it very clear to Specter that if he wants their support in 2010, he’s going to have to vote like he is a Democrat and not like he is a Republican.
Personally I don’t trust Specter. What’s to stop him from switching back to a Republican if he is re-elected?
April 29th, 2009 at 1:52 amNo. I don’t wipe butts. I have saved a life. And I don’t believe you’re a doctor—doctors usually appreciate the work of caregivers and see it as part of the whole caring process.

Limited your free speech? Would that be anything like every conservative blog site not allowing progressives to post? Most like redstate ban you within the hour if you post something contrary to their point of view. The only conservative site I know that allows progressives to post is Politico and that’s only because they are trying to maintain the illusion that they are “fair and balanced” even though everyone knows they are the Fixed News of the Internet.

Well at least Obama and Specter appear to be in agreement with each other on the Employee Free Choice Act! Specter pulled his support, thereby almost certainly dooming the bill and Obama said nothing, commission by omission.
April 29th, 2009 at 4:19 amMaybe he’s busy being the president, and Congress is busy being Congress.
April 29th, 2009 at 5:12 amSpecter’s spine is about as strong as wet cardboard. He “starts” to show firm resolve and then he crumbles, he did this related to Bush’s actions many times, but ususally he resolve only lasted about a day. Democrats can control him by threatening a primary challenge if he goes off script. Afterall a primary challenge is why he left the Repubs, he can hardly go back now. He will fall in line.
April 29th, 2009 at 6:36 amWhile I applaud anyone coming to their senses, I don’t completely trust Specter, and until he earns his stripes, I wouldn’t recommend any of Democratic officials doing so either.
But that’s just me. I don’t have trust issues. I just don’t trust anybody.
April 29th, 2009 at 6:57 amI think from this day forward Specter should wear a dunce cap so we Americans can pick him out quickly on the floor of the Senate when we’re watching C-SPAN2. It would make things easier. Maybe give one to Joe Lieberman to wear too would also help.
April 29th, 2009 at 7:10 amWho cares how he votes on the actual vote, as long as he votes for closure!
April 29th, 2009 at 9:02 amNever much liked Specter and certainly don’t trust him.
April 29th, 2009 at 10:05 amDon’t like the way he states one thing and then votes another way.
Like with his vocal opposition to Bush nominees… We need progressive Democrats, not more Yellow Dogs.
Come on Spector, did the Neocons send you to the Democratic party as their Trojan horse? You’re a fool.
April 29th, 2009 at 10:18 amDemocrats welcome Specter, but should true progressives welcome him?
I am a bit concerned that Specter switching into the Democratic primary will prohibit new blood being infused into the Senate. In particular, Congressman, Joe Sestak. He is a military vet, and a true progressive; that combination is hard to find.
