My, how the worm turns.  Just a few months after the Bolshevik beatification in Denver, the Demokratic deity who used to walk on water in the eyes of his liberal contemporaries, is now being called “Typhoid Barry” by those liberals who still wish to keep their seats at the tax trough in Washington.

The Baltimore Sun reports in “Vulnerable Dems seek distance from Obama” that in “picking through” Obama’s bloated budget “many incumbents and candidates seem to be finding something they love-to campaign against.”  The reality of being a political punching bag is nothing new for Obama.  What is new about all of this is the identity of those who have been recently throwing the rabbit clouts.  Lately, the ones dishing out the low blows are the forlorn fascists who used to sprint to the head of the parade in order to be seen getting their grimy hands on the Obama hammer and sickle flag or to beat the demagogue’s drum.

When Arlen Specter announced that he had become a Democrat I was shocked. I thought he had done that years ago. With a grade of 44.47 from the American Conservative Union firmly under his sagging belt he is exposed as never having been a conservative let alone a Republican. The man is an imposter and now belongs to a party whose entire leadership is laced with the most egregious kind. He will feel quite at home there and will be welcomed with open arms. They can recognise a toady who has both feet firmly planted on the ladder of preferment when they see one. After all, for them, it’s just like looking in the mirror.

Now Specter can take his seat in the front pew of the vast, decrepit, cathedral of “Blame & Apologise For America First” where well-fed traitors lurk in the shadows. Some requirements of being a member of the congregation are to be able to speak out of both sides of your mouth at the same time, to betray & estrange our allies, to insult & diminish your country when travelling overseas, to encourage our enemies by releasing classified information about terrorist interrogations because soothing your conscience is more important than defending Americans, to place seemingly gold-plated chains around the ankles of all Americans trying to convince them that the government can do everything so much better than free markets when you know it can not, legitimise over 12 million illegal aliens and give them welfare benefits, because they will eventually vote for you, while over 8% of Americans are unemployed, & drown the country in an ocean of debt that will still be unpaid three generations from now. Arlen Specter will not have trouble with any of these requirements. In fact he may be over-qualified.
