    Unfortunately, based on his clear understanding of just how angry “true” Republicans are over his bought & paid for vote for the spending (er, I mean stimulus), legislation, Specter knows his days are numbered. He has betrayed his constituents so often, they no longer expect him to do anything Republican. The man was originally a Democrat & in fact, never became a Republican. Arlen just did what the union plans to do to get him re-elected. He falsely registered as a Republican.
    Too bad union members do not realize union support for illegal alien amnesty means a glut of cheap workers. Workers who will drive down wages for all, including or especially citizens, who used to be able to command decent wages when they were not in competition for jobs w/ third world slave labor workers. Union bosses will sell out members once that worker glut hits. After all, once the union is in, what do you think the possibility of getting the union out will be w/o the secret ballot? I wonder if zilch, nada, zero, zippo, squat, mean anything to them?
    The registering of members as members of a political party they are really not members of, represents the type of tactics that will be employed to deal w/ dissenting union members. Perhaps they should take note of this as they decide what & who they want to support.
    There are many ways to deal w/ unfair circumstances in representation issues that might favor an employer. But dumping the secret ballot is definitely not one of them.

    Well, Specter can be bought. Obvious also is a Presidency can be bought. WHat I would like to see is for those supporting the EFCA to explain their economic rationalizations and answer the following:

    1. When cost of operations will go thru the roof, and these costs are passed on to the consumer, who will be able to afford to live?

    2. While on one hand this woudl drive the costs of ALL goods and services thru the roof, take-home income will be reduced dramatically via the bevy of taxes about to come down the pike, so regardless how much money you give the lug-nut twister, his take-home pay will stillbe reduced, while his dollar goes less far. How will this work?

    3. How does it stimulate the economy when you drive the costs of operations so high that no one will be able to afford to buy your product or service?

    We Americans hold our collective breath awaiting your obfuscating drivel.
