Specter (R-Caves In Every Time) Doing His Dance On C-Span Now
Edited on Mon Sep-25-06 12:28 PM by stopbush
Talking at the NPC about the Torture President and his torture bill. Says he will introduce amendment
to reinstate haebeus corpus, but will NOT answer the many pertinent questons being asked on the cards
(such as - does this give amnesty to bush officials who have previously authorized torture?).

NEVER trust thius guy. Never.

author of the 'magic bullet theory'? He has been rewarded handsomely for his role in THAT charade.

4. Question on war in Iraq making the US less secure
Specter claiming "I didn't hear a question...(then)....that report is very very serious..and that conclusion was reached in early 2003 before the war started...it's intuitive that the war in Iraq is exacerbated Muslim tensions..."

"brings up what to do about Iraq"

"kerry offered a bill to offer withdraw by 2007 and got 14 votes...whewre do you go from here?"

"Iraq leaders paint a little different picture than what you get here...seems to me Iraq is already in civil war...and AFTER the election is over there will be a lot more thinking on what to do about Iraq"
