Republican Sen. Specter Plans Syria Trip

Sen. Arlen Specter, a 26-year Senate Republican, said he will visit Syria despite loud objections by the Bush administration, contending the situation in Iraq is so dire that it is time Congress step up to the ...

Sen. Arlene ‘It’s all about me’ Specter is known to forget frequently that he is does not represent the left wing liberals in the Senate.
Specter’s leadership in the judicial committee of the Senate is coming to end after that the Senate control is in the hands of the Dems.
It is clear that Specter ‘contribution’ to the failure of GOP senators in the recent elections is considerable with his adamant support of rights of murderous Islamic terrorists and his support of amnesty to the illegals immigrants with Ted Kennedy.
Specter is the one of the few last GOP senators that keeps undermining the President Bush efforts in the war against the Islamic terrorists of al Qaida, and Hezbollah and Hamas and the White House policy in the Israel and Gaza.
Specter believes in appeasement of the Syrian evil regime of Assad and the Iranian evil regime of Ahmadinajad and plans to suggest to Assad a solution for the sectarian war in Iraq by expelling Jews from their houses and synagogues in the Golan Height and the Holyland and provide their control to the Islamic terrorists of Hezbollah and Hamas.
Specter further acting against the White House and Israel in meeting Assad and offering appeasement and award to the Islamic terrorists of Hamas and Hezbollah with Israeli lands.
Specter disregards the continuing efforts of the Islamic terrorists of Hamas and Hezbollah to kill Israelis by missile attacks and their call for the destruction of Israel.

Won't be voting for Specter. I am a Pennsylvanian. Who is advising him? Foriegn policy is the domain of the Executive branch and the career people in the State Department. Any review or criticism of Bush's foriegn policy belongs on Capital Hill not on foreign soil. It is true that we need a unified foreign policy. Correct any flaws in policies over here. I'm disgusted with Specter. He must be shown the door.

I'd gladly trade Specter for Santorum.

Specter should have his own T.V. show called The Arlen Specter Show, or A.S.S.

get it?.........crickets chirping*.........

Thank you thank you! I'll be here all night!

It's good someone in DC sees that it is important to include Syria. Syria is a player in the region, they must be included in talks. It's THEIR region, not ours. WE don't get to dictate what happens.... Bush is finding that out with he iraq debacle.

Arlen Spector is a Republican Senator, but I do like him. He is not a hasty person. Why do you try to bash him. The man is a decent human. Too bad all Republicans aren't like him. Maybe he'll change parties, then the Republicans might learn to appreciate him better!

[Disgusted]

The Rubber Stamp for Cheney/Bush would not be going anywhere or doing anything except what Cheney/Bush told him to do-he alway honking his horn about this or that not being right---then the Rubber Stamp was used to approval anything Cheney/Bush WANTED!

Yea--Bush/Cheney does not want him to make the trip and I got some Ocean Front Property for sale in the Mountains of Kansas.

O.K., I'll accept that. So many "rubber stamped" Bushs' extremist regime. That's why the Dems got it, for which I am very happy!

While I agree something drastic needs to be done about our foreign policy, I also think it needs to be worked out in Washington, DC, not abroad.

Our present administration needs to be taken to task, but I am convinced that the alternatives we have at present are just the flip side of a bent coin and won't 'fit the slot' any better than Bush's load of manure.

I think our two party system has outlived its usefulness and it is time for the winds of change to blow... hard.

Senator Spector is yet another foolish politician, chasing the spotlight. This is of no importance by itself.

His actions regarding Syria will embolden our enemies to increase their rate of actions and indirectly cause additional deaths of American soldiers.

For that reason, he deserves a bashing.

The problem is that OUR world-wide economy depends on THEIR oil.(Well, not Syria, but two of their rather prominent neigbors)

That gives us a say, rightly or not, in the affairs of the region. The order there is important to us, and we CAN dictate what happens there if things get serious enough.

Syria is a hostile player, allied firmly with Iran, and working to expand their role in the Middle East. All of that will be bad for America - and Europe, and Asia, even under the best of circumstances. I would place zero credence in any "negotiations" with Syria.

Iran leaders want to bring down the entire world order of today and usher in the coming of the 12th Imam and the time of judgement. If that sounds nutty to you, well it doesn't matter what you think. What matters is what the Iranians think. A critical mass of their leaders support the idea and believe they can bring it into reality.

Our ancestors would have conquered the region, enslaved the population, looted the natural resources, and ruthlessly exterminated any local resistance.

Come to think of it, that's pretty much the way the local residents work things out right now. "Diplomacy" is merely the time for rest and rearming.

We would like to suppose that we are above such measures. That hubris blinds us to what is coming.

Congress Shelly Berkley support Clinton:

This is an out rage. Norman Finkelstein was persecuted by Zionist in America. Then in the land of Israel they arrested and held him in a prison and deported him from the land of return rights of a holocaust family rights from Israel. Racist two way street when needed!

Finkelstein is a humanitarians not a terrorist!

Congress Shelly Berkley should be ashamed sending our dear troops into a religious war by proxies and they have died many beautiful lives. Then Congress Berkley has the Zionist style never to go to Iraq after demanding they go there to die in the first place. She needs Impeached and then tried for Treason.

Then we read about this case in Las Vegas and how she allows to have an close religious leader associate to go before the House and bring that Jewish law as this Rabbi Harlig stated to our people in America after he was involved in a Hitler style Nuremberg style Race Blood Investigations.

Congress Berkley needs "impeached" for this as well because you knew well what went on in this case the sexual assault happened at your temple Beth Shalom and the attacker was your past Rabbi son in law.

This is against all human rights laws after the Holocaust and to bring some one who did the same act and laws as Hitlers group is shocking.

Why is it "Congress Shelly Berkley" did you not support two holocaust families "Norman Finkelstein and Zisska Ramani".

Please remember "George Soros" the great billionaire who was "persecuted" after the holocaust "George Soros" here another human rights violations directed to this survivor! We love you George!!!!!

"George Soros" we support you and are out raged by what was denied to you health care by the Jewish relief health agency after the holocaust you to were persecuted!

I take it because you to did not look Jewish enough reversed persecuted hated and harassed as was forced on "Zisska", "Norman" and you dear "George" because of your Euro looks they are jealous that is all!

We are now "civil human rights advocates"!

No more "PROXIES RELIGIOUS HATE WARS" OK?

No more killing and persecution of the children of ABRAHAM the MUSLIMS the other children of the bible.

Congress Shelly Berkley and the other Jewish Congress and Senate leaders should be ashamed to allow for what is called as "murder" to go on and on in that part of the world and vote for that murder of all humans even our dear Americans forced by them into that religious war.

All of you should be arrested and tried for Treason against the United States and humanitarian of the world.

We do not want to hear any more about all of you wanting to go after President Bush. Wanting him charged and the true secret is because he would not go into Iran for your proxies religious hate murder wars.

Trust us we advocates know the proxies game and the misinformation and propaganda that was passed across his desk in the Oval office. We will not stand for anyone even when he leaves office for you haters of other humans to persecute him or anyone else!!

We will stand and investigate all of you and in which is has been done for the past year.

You will not persecute and or prosecute President Bush in any way after he leaves office.

Don't forget there are elective officials and then we have our "loyal Government" that sits back and then moves after all data and proof is in!

WHY WOULD A DEVOUT "ZIONEST LAWYERS" THREATEN THE "SEX VICTIM" IN THE BEGINNING OF THE CASE? THEN LIE TO THE STATE ABOUT HER NOT BEING JEWISH AND THEN PERSECUTE HER IN THE START?:;{this is the way victims Palestine's humans are treated}::!

NOW WE SEE IF YOU ARE NOT JEWISH IT MAKES THIS A LESSOR OF A CRIME IN AMERICA {just like in Israel} OK!

We support all persecuted humans Jewish or not!
