Senator Arlen Specter, I am so proud of you. For once in your Senate career, you have done the honest thing. Thank you for departing the Republican Party and joining with your fellow liberals in the Democratic Party. It is with much chagrin that I have witnessed the Republican Party kowtow to you time after time just to keep you in as Senator of Pennsylvania. And time after time you have stuck a knife in the back of the very ones who helped you stay in power. Quite frankly, you have been a great hindrance to making positive, conservative changes in our country. Thank you for finally following your heart.
The Republican Party has its founding in conservative principles. Many would like to start a third party, but quite frankly, the party will be fine if it stands on the principles that gave it appeal. There is a party for those who are promoting more and more government intervention into the lives of Americans. It is the Democratic Party. The Republican Party must return itself to true conservatism if it hopes to have a hand in the future of this nation.
So I encourage other Senators to do the right thing and join the cause for Marxism. Olympia Snowe, go ahead and run into the arms of Harry Reid. He will take you in and bring you the acceptance that you need. Susan Collins, we love you, but you know a statesman like Senator Jim Demint really gives you the creeps. You need comforted with those that don't take things like the Constitution so seriously. The Democrats are there for you Susan. John McCain, go ahead and follow your heart as well. Its been great getting stabbed in the back so many times by you. There is another name for that, and it is not "Maverick." Take your "bipartisanship" and your threatenings and cozy up with the ones you really feel kindred to.
Human Events had an article on the top 10 RINO's (Republicans-in-name-only) just the other day.

I encourage conservatives and liberals alike to let these Senators know that they would be welcomed with open arms in the Democratic Party. One that is not on the list is Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina. He should move on with John McCain.
Once again, thank you Senator Specter. Finally, you do something that I agree with. May the Democratic Party benefit mightily from your great "leadership," just as the Republicans have.
