merrie says:

In addition to his support for the stimulus bill, Senator Specter has opposed the Republican Party on the following issues and more:

- The troop surge in Iraq

- The impeachment trial of President Clinton

- Restoring habeas corpus for suspected terrorists

- Lifting restrictions on stem cell research

- A constitutional amendment banning gay marriage

- "Card Check," a bill which would deny workers the right to a secret ballot regarding unionization

- Pro-life, anti-abortion legislation

Due to Senator Specter's repeated and harmful opposition to republican positions, it is necessary for the Republican National Committee to demand that Senator Specter resign his membership in the Republican Party.

A great patriot.

United States Senator Arlen Specter, Republican from Pennsylvania, was one of only three Republicans in both houses of congress to support the Democrats' Economic Stimulus Bill. Without the votes of those three republican senators, this bill, which wastefully spends an unprecedented $787 billion, could not have passed the senate. Senator Specter supported this bill in opposition to the distinctly expressed desires of his republican constituents. And, since January 2000, Sen. Specter has voted against the position of the GOP more than 600 times.</DIV></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.gopetition.com/petitions/expel-specter.html"><DIV class="petition"><DIV>We, the undersigned, respectfully request that the Republican National Committee and its Chairman, Michael Steele, demand that Senator Specter officially resign his membership in the Republican Party. </DIV>
