Bored out of my skull, did my usual surfing and ran across this. Here’s a summary:
========================
Specter: “I don’t think 30 years is long enough in congress. Maybe with some luck I’ll last ’till 100, then keel over during a vote, get into the history books”
Republican Party: “You follow Statism A, we want Statism B, you don’t fit our wing of the elite!”
Specter: “M’kay then…(switches R after name on CNN to D)”
Republican Party: “DON’T LET THE DOOR HIT YOU ON YOUR WAY OUT YOU FAG-LOVING BABY-KILLING COMMIE SIMP!!”
(pauses…)
Republican Party to Pennsylvania Democrats: “Psst…y’know how loyal of a Republican this guy was?”
==========================
For people so capable of manipulating a crowd into co-singing the ridiculous and/or just plain unthinkable, the US political elite sure does suck at logic. If contradiction were an Olympic sport, this’d get the gold…
