Arlen Specter calling Conyers Chairman
on MSNBC and is in near tears at the thought of a Bush impeachment. He is clearly very upset at reality facing Rethugs in the House. Run Arlen run, the Dems are coming.

2. Well, gee Arlen - if you actually defended the Constitution .
Instead of treating us to occasional episodes of "Capitol Hill Kabuki", maybe you wouldn't be weeping and wailing now, ASSHOLE.

3. They'll try anything and everything to turn out their base.
They have no one else.

12. That was my reaction
He was almost in tears. He said any impeachment will not be good for the US.
Looks like memories do leaev like people do - remember Bill Clinton Arlen and all he did was 'got a blow job'. He didn't lie his country into war and slaughter countless people. He didn't violate the constitution.

Let's go Dems! Whip them. The larger the turn out, the worst the beating.
This looks like the largest mid-term turn out ever.

24. I don't know why
none of these "journalists" ever ask these repubs, "What makes you think there will be an impeachment? What do you think the president has done that would be considered impeachable?"

6. That sellout should be worried. Conyers will make the House
Judiciary Committee show him up for the fascist enabler he's been for the past six years.

7. Perhaps the Dems will even have time to investigate some of Arlen's
phoney baloney activities as well. He's done some questionable things. Like the detainee bill bullshit. And not putting the AG under oath before testifying.

After the impeachment, if things go swimmingly, maybe there will be time for Arlen as well. Cry all you want Arlen, your tears will never fix the damage your party has inflicted on this country.

10. It's normal for a former chairman to called that after he no longer is.

11. repugs saying this one clearly says they KNOw BUSH HAS BROKEN LAW
that they know there is cause for impeachment. there cannot be attempt of impeachment with nothing there and repugs act like saying dems gonna impeach is saying something about the dems..... but it is really saying we know our president has impeachable offenses. that is not a good thing for repugs. they dont even qualify it with bullshit reasons.... just dems will impeach.

14. Ah Arlen Specter--the architect of the "magic bullet" fairy tale
Which was the foundation of the Warren Report cover up to the 1963 coup. He should have been in jail decades ago.

23. He is closer to having a conscience than most of them
but not quite there. It's like a thief who is very very sorry after he's been caught.
