Fewer Morals Than Judas
Typical.
You leave the country for a fortnight and – just like that – it vanishes.
Arlen Specter is human slime. This we all know.
Now that he has joined his soul-mates in the anything-except-that-which-works party, all conservatives should give thanks.
We should have given Specter the boot ourselves long ago – it is not too late to man up and do it with regard to the other “conservative” double-agents lurking with the Republican Party.
And do you notice the president’s barely-concealed sh*t-eating grin?
(It’s a good job that Biden had his back to the camera, as Lord only knows what he looked like at that moment – can facial muscles be torn by ludicrously large and inane grins?)
Yes, ladies and gentlemen, yet more proof that the Democrats are simply not interested in running the country, only in smashing the opposition. What a wonderful distraction Specter provides from the most atrocious first 100 days in memory!
Finally, a word of reason. Arlen Specter is not entirely without principles.
In fact, he shares the one trait most commonly found among all members of the political class.
Self-interest.
It is time to abolish the political parties in existence, disband their cabals, expel all in office and remove those in opposition.
Then start again.
Nothing else goes far enough.

..an adjunctive post to (1) applaud your editorial (cf. honeymoon remarks above), and (2) bring you up to date — in the event you are still wandering around Great Britain — on the stateside appellations given to this walking cow turd:
(a) Benedict Arlen
(b) Arlen Sphincter
Happy trails and give my regards to Rumpole of the Bailey when you stop into Pomeroy’s for a glass of Chateau Thames Embankment of his “very ordinary”.
(Sorry, incorrigible Mortimer fan here, don’t you know.)
