Sen. Specter Defends Terrell Owens
In one short news story, Senator Specter shows that he is far more concerned about the plight of spoiled, selfish loudmouth multimillionaires like Terrell Owens than he is about the 45 million people without healthcare in America, or the 293,000 Pennsylvania residents without employment.
Specter quite arguably is not the worst republican in the Senate(that would be Santorum IMO), but this news story just rubbed me the wrong way. You can't get these republicans to even acknowledge that there are a lot of people out there who have fallen on hard times, without it being their fault, and yet not even one of the lesser evils like Specter can show that they care at all about working-class, struggling people. Not really a surprise to me, but a continual disappointment.
I know this isn't the most important issue out there, but it seems worthy of a diary. If you'd like to join me and email or call Senator Specter's office to ask him why he thinks helping Terrell Owens is more important than helping working families, here is the info. Thanks for reading.
