Alright, I admit that I never expected to write a word of acknowledgment related to Vice President Joe Biden having made an accurate statement. I was shocked when I read a stunningly honest Biden quote this afternoon in an
AP article on
The Telegraph web site. The content of the article was alarming, at least to anyone that isn't in favor of intimidation and thuggish tactics being employed to spread the cancer of unionization courtesy of the "card check" union pay-off legislation.
The headline "
Maverick Specter's toughest vote could be ahead," might be the AP's way of warning John McCain that if he doesn't fall back in line, he could be replaced as the "maverick." In other words, McCain better not pull what he did during the Obamulus battle (stand for what is right) and behave more like he did during Hillary Clinton's confirmation process. This article focuses on Senator Arlen Specter (RINO - PA) and the possibility of his once again playing the role of liberal lapdog/sanity spoiler when the inappropriately named "Employee Free Choice Act" or card check comes up for a vote.
From the article:
At a reception Friday in Philadelphia with Pennsylvania's congressional delegation, Vice President Joe Biden thanked Specter for supporting the stimulus bill.
"He knows what's worth losing over and he's willing to act on it," Biden said. "In his heart, I know he's a Democrat."
The card check legislation could be a defining issue for Specter's reputation: It is a top priority for labor unions and has solid opposition from business groups, which were divided over the stimulus bill.
"I think the vote for the stimulus will pale in comparison to the card check," said G. Terry Madonna, director of the Center for Opinion Research at Franklin & Marshall College in Lancaster.
In 2007, the card check bill passed the House with only 13 Republicans supporting it. In the Senate, Specter was the only Republican to vote with Democrats to force debate on the legislation, even though the bill had insufficient votes to advance and President George Bush had promised to veto it.
Your eyes did not deceive you, Biden made a true statement!
"In his heart, I know he's a Democrat." I'm sure Biden might have given Specter a friendly wink if this action hadn't been surgically rendered impossible.
With the media buttering up the RINO triplets Specter, Snowe, and Collins, who knows what the libiots in power will be able force upon our nation. Today, egregious and wasteful spending. Tomorrow, the elimination of private ballot votes to unionize. What other horrors await?
