That no good, ungrateful SOB -- THIS IS WHY BUSH SHOULD HAVE BACKED TOOMEY, DOGGONE IT!
Specter warns Bush on high court nominations
In other words, the Dems won't have to worry about an abortion litmus test -- Specter (RINO -- PA) will do it for them.
Bush backed Specter when Toomey could have defeated him in the primaries. Specter diddn't deliver PA for the President, and now he's going to lecture Bush about potential judicial nominees?
Screw that. I'd like to see Frist take him on and remove his but from the Judiciary committee. It's not like Specter is a reliable Republican anyway -- and he's out after this term, anyway.
Man am I angry about this. It just goes to show that compromise is wasted on those without honor. Bush should expend political capital getting people in office who will support his conservative programs, rather than compromising with RINOs that get conservatives nowhere.
UPDATE:
Timothy Carney says it all so much better than I have managed.
