It’s going to be great, tomorrow, when we can all quit acting like we care about Arlen Specter beyond, you know, his vote. Meanwhile, OMG WITH WHOM WILL ARLEN SUP, AT THE SENATE DINING ROOM? Because you know he used to lunch with his Republican “colleagues,” but now he hates them, so … Hot Pockets and some web porn back in the office? Let’s check with The Hill, which actually follows the lunch routines of the old people who inhabit the Senate, and find out.
“I’ve got my wife. I have my wife,” Specter said to laughter after emerging from Senate elevators to a mob of reporters. “There she is, the good-looking blonde over there. And the handsome fella is my son. We’re about to go down to the dining room. That’s where I’m having lunch.”
Terrific! We will check back with you in, say, 2010?

That crow the republicans are eating is fucking delicious!
Joe Lieberman, obviously.
“The good-looking blonde over there, you see. She’ll be serving me up a furburger and a side of thighs.
Senate Dining Room? I thought they all just went to Coco’s, and drank gravy out of mugs.
lemme have a bowl o dicks, er, make that a cup with stem cells on the side, you honey?

He’ll eat at the corner table with Joe Lieberman amidst the hail of spitwads and traitor jokes. He should just be careful where he walks with his tray. Ol’ Mitch McC will most certainly try to trip him so the whole cafeteria can shout “wooooooooooooooooooo” followed by a standing ovation, as Arlen attempts to salvage what he can from his lunch now splattered on the floor. The chocolate milk will probably survive.

I thought that’s why he switched; to sit at the cool table.
Do they have cameras? Will we get to watch viddy of the food fight?
Dude! Domino’s delivers.
[re=302466]Custerwolf[/re]: that Sir, is a worthwhile contribution to our national conversation
Judging from the picture, it’s BY whom will Arlen be eaten. The answer: a big beaver.
[re=302483]Min[/re]: Is there a commie-owned pizza franchise? Cuz Domino’s is owned by a far-right freak show Catholic, the kind of folk Arlen is apparently trying to leave behind.
[re=302479]j6n[/re]: Pelosi promised to share skincare tips with him.
[re=302488]randomsausage[/re]: Oh you’ve done it now. Custerwolf ain’t no sir.
It must be the swine flu!
Michele Malkin, Ann Coulter, Sarah Palin, Ted Stevens, Bill Reilly, Karen Hughes, Karl Rove and John Bolton all just announced that they’re also switching to the Democratic Party!
And LNS just released a press release announcing, “Due to the change in the national political climate, Late Night Shots will hereby be a purely liberal, left-wing, Democratic organization, and we will no longer be meeting or socializing at Smith Point. From this point on, we will be meeting at Busboys and Poets, and we will be sponsoring a concert and new vaudeville series at the Palace of Wonders bar on H Street. Thank your for your continued patronage. –Late Night Shots.”
Wow!
[re=302496]hobospacejunkie[/re]: I was gonna let it slide……
[re=302468]StephanieInCA[/re]: We did that after my Bar Mitzvah, it’s not as much fun as it sounds.
I just wanted him/her to be shocked, shocked I say, that such words could issue forth from the mouth of such a comely & innocent lass as you.
The re-elect Walnuts ad I’m getting is almost as precious as SarahPAC. And apparently, there are still people who are “Friends of John McCain”. I guess some people are unaware that “my friends” is just a really annoying rhetorical device.
[re=302515]hobospacejunkie[/re]: Stop – you’re making me blush.
kosher from Ben’s Chili Bowl…with the entire Congressional Black Caucus, Senate contingent…a one Hon. Roland Burris.
thefrontpage: Not sure Spector is the same league the psychos in your list. Nice smear of a moderate.
Does anyone else smell troll?
So what? Michael Steel got Bloomberg back and that is all part of the devious secret counter-intuitive plan. He’s got one up on us and we can’t admit it.
Ken, is it banning time yet?
I only sat at the black kids table in my middle school. It’s not a bad choice.
RINOS and ACORNS and Muslins, oh my!
Me be the troll!!
[re=302550]R-dawg[/re]: You’re no troll!
[re=302503]thefrontpage[/re]: He’s no troll!
Specter thinks that now he’s a Dem, Michelle and that cute wife of Mayor Fenty will take him out to lunch. Well, dream on you old fart. You have to sign the Employee Free Choice act first.
[re=302595]shortsshortsshorts[/re]: You can vouch? I know he seems like a moderate troll, which is a refreshing change of pace, but he is still cruising towards “eat a bag of dicks” territory.
[re=302629]imissopus[/re]: Agreed, invoking the word “moderate” without a hint of irony should trigger the SUPERBAN AND A STAKE THROUGH THE HEART.
[re=302600]Jukesgrrl[/re]: Don’t do it, Arlie! Hold out for Elizabeth Kucinich!
foooood fight!
Makes me long for the days of duels (Blountsberg, MD, I believe was the usual place) or just beating eacha other silly with canes, fire pokers, etc.

God help me. I actually clicked on that link to the article to freaking find out about Specter’s difficulty finding lunch partners. What have I become?
