Arlen Gets Tough
“Institutionally, the presidency is walking all over Congress at the moment. If we are to maintain our institutional prerogative, that may be the only way we can do it.”
- Senator Arlen Specter, R-Pa.
He’s talking about proposing legislation to cut off funding for the NSA’s warrantless wiretapping program if Congress doesn’t get some answers soon.

And then he said this was all just a threat for now. As James Brown once said, he’s “talkin’ loud and sayin’ nothin’.”
Put yer money where yer mouth is Arlen. Threats from him are getting pretty old. Do something already.
Did Arlen momentarily forget he was neutered by his party years ago?
