As Specter leaves the Senate after 30 years of roll calls, debates, dealmaking and votes, he says he wouldn't change a thing about his political path

1. Arlen Specter should come clean on the JFK assassination...
Mr. "Single Bullet Theory" knows what really happened....

I hope he twists and turns in his grave for covering up such a heinous crime all these years...

2. Damn, I live in Westlake Village
If I had known, I would have had my parakeet crap on Palin's cupcake.

3. It should be noted: Nancy nixed the idea of living in the the Executive Mansion after the tour
Edited on Sun Feb-06-11 03:21 AM by Brother Buzz
They opted to live in an opulent private home in the 'Fabulous Forties' instead. They ordered a 'new' mansion built out on the American River but left office before it was completed. The new mansion, designed by Nancy, was the swanky joint Jerry Brown refused to live in when he took office. All subsequent governors have opted not to live in the Nancy's white elephant for a variety of reasons, and it was sold at auction in 1985.

5. It's appropriate because Reagan basically said "Let them eat cupcakes" to the poor.
Can't have none of them welfare queens driving up in their Cadillacs to pick up their check and food stamps!
