Because the Democrats are one step closer to a filibuster-proof majority in the Senate.
Pennsylvania Sen. Arlen Specter will switch his party affiliation from Republican to Democrat and announced today that he will run in 2010 as a Democrat, according to a statement he released this morning.
Specter’s decision would give Democrats a 60 seat filibuster proof majority in the Senate assuming Democrat Al Franken is eventually sworn in as the next senator from Minnesota. (Former senator Norm Coleman is appealing Franken’s victory in the state Supreme Court.)
Suck on that you stupid fucking Republicans. With Arlen Specter’s help the Democrats will finally be able to fix the shit George Bush broke while he was in office.
With Arlen Specter’s help the Democrats can finally withdraw all our troops from the Middle East. What? Arlen Specter supports the Iraq and Afghanistan wars? Alright, I guess that’s okay. I mean, he’s entitled to his opinion.
But anyways, with Arlen Specter’s help the Democrats can finally help the unions. What? Arlen Specter’s against helping the unions? Alright, I don’t understand, but who am I to judge? I mean, maybe he has a good reason for it, I don’t know.
But, um, with Arlen Specter’s help the Democrats can finally regulate Wall Street. What? Arlen Specter’s one of the biggest Wall Street campaign recipients?
Specter told reporters that he received a “bleak” poll Friday from his advisers that showed virtually no chance of him winning in the GOP primary next spring against Pat Toomey, a former Republican House member who recently led the conservative Club for Growth.
Are you fucking serious? This cock sucker changed parties because he was about to lose his goddamn job?
God-fucking-dammit.
Why can’t normal people get away with the shit politicians do? Why can’t someone who’s about to get fired go, “You know what? I don’t feel like losing my job today, so I’ve decided to become the CEO and do the firing.” Why can’t someone who wants some information go, “You know what? I think that guy is banging my wife, so I’m going to tell my paperboy to strap him to a table and waterboard his ass until I get an answer.” Why can’t someone who’s about to go bankrupt go, “You know what? I don’t feel like being broke, so I’m going to create a failing business and get the government to bail me out with billions of dollars that I don’t have to pay back.”
Why do these rich, white stupid-ass motherfuckers get to make up the rules as they go along to benefit them, while they force every other poor son of a bitch to play by the first set of rules and continue to get fucked over?
For the love of God, could we please, PLEASE, have a crazy person storm the Capital while Congress is in session and blow these motherfuckers away? For fuck’s sake, these are the assholes who are screwing you over. Not illegal immigrants.
