Alex, it’s a good thing you’re an optimist and can find hope in the most difficult circumstances.

As for Specter, he acted no different than a flee jumping off a dog headed for a bath. He’s an opportunist, saving his own career which should have ended years ago. Just a few weeks ago he bandied on about the need for balance and a two party system. Hypocrisy like this isn’t random, it’s nurtured and par for the course, especially for Democrats. Good riddance and I hope they enjoy him. The last time this happened was during Carter’s first two years and only a fool would believe that was a great time in American history. So now it’s all in the Statists’ hands. Let them own the ball and fail drastically. I’m looking forward to it. In fact, I’ve never been more certain in my life, since 9/12/01, that we’re going to get hit so hard it may take all out nuclear war to salvage what is left of this country that my parents escaped to. For those of us that escaped Communism, we used to worry and laugh nervously. Now it’s an outright smirk we carry around. Boy, I’m sure looking forward to dear leader’s face on TV every day. Hmm, where have we seen that before? Now its just a matter of time that we have to escape from here. Very sad indeed. But don’t take my word for it. I’m an Optimist!
