Arlen Specter is doubting the fired lawyer David Iglesias's testimony

[AlCzervik]

"well he didn't report the phone calls from the senator or the us rep until after he was fired" on Face the Nation.

1. So if a woman doesn't report a rape after the suspect is arrested

Then we're just going to let him off the hook? Specter is owned by the right.

3. Specter forgets he's not a criminal defense lawyer anymore but he seems to act in

that capacity for the gop.

2. Iglesias, circa mid-October

"Yes, now that I'm perceiving interference, I think I'll get in touch with Wilson's and Domenici's colleagues. It's not like they'd take the word of their fellow legislators over mine."

[JDPriestly]

4. Does Spector doubt that the calls happened?

I believe that the callers have admitted the calls. Spector's concern would be worth raising if anyone had denied the calls were made.

[Democrat 4 Ever]

5. Well, Specter is keeping to his schedule. All fire and brimstone

at stuff Chucklenuts and The Cabal are doing but give him a day or two and they have him whipped back into line.

Specter is not to be trusted. Just another GOP shill playing to the masses.

6. Arlan is one of the worst of the sleezy republics.

[gratuitous]

7. And what would you have done about it, Arlen?

Suppose Iglesias had come out, right in the middle of October and the election dogfight, and told you personally that he was getting phone calls, personal phone calls, phone calls at his house, from a U.S. Representative and a U.S. Senator from your party, and that he thought these calls were of a rather partisan and even threatening nature?

What would you have done, Mr. Specter, author of the self-writing legislation that allowed the White House to replace U.S. Attorneys at will and without a hearing? For once in your miserable life, tell me the truth, you cocksucking, low-down, filthy, rotten piece of maggot-infested carrion in human form? Are you seriously saying that if Iglesias had come to you just before the 2006 election that you would have gone on Face the Nation and demanded an explanation from Rep. Wilson and Sen. Domenici?

You're a fucking fraud, Mr. Specter. And despite all your practice over the last 45 years, you haven't gotten any better at lying.

8. But, this is the same guy who pushed the Magic Bullet Theory

so consider the source :puke:

[Bunny]

9. Right on cue, Arlen! Well done!

You are such a predictable douchebag, Arlen.

[Hamlette]

10. what an idiot! It isn't a big deal until you get fired.

yes, its against the law, but you are just a whiner. When they fire you, you get to hit back.
