Sen. Arlen Specter Hitting Up Obama for Administration Job is raising eyebrows

Sounds like we have another Blagojevich job for vote deal going on between the White House and out going Arlen Specter. I can’t wait until the Republicans take control of congress so that Obama’s dirty dealings can be investigated.

Outgoing Sen. Arlen Specter, D-Penn., is asking for a job from the White House, according to ABC News

Neither the White House nor Specter had any comment.

But talk of such a job is raising eyebrows among Specter’s Republican Senate colleagues. They’re taking a close look at his recent votes. For instance, Specter seemed not particularly impressed with Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan, whose nomination as Solicitor General Specter opposed last year. This week he announced support for her Supreme Court nomination.

UPDATE APRIL 30: Blagojevich’s lawyers asked a federal judge to subpoena the president to testify about questions surrounding the government’s allegation that Blagojevich was selling or trading Obama’s Senate seat

The blacked-out portions of a subpoena request filed by lawyers for former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich — which were revealed through a simple computer trick suggest President Obama may have played a role in finding his own Senate replacement.

On Thursday, Blagojevich’s lawyers asked a federal judge to subpoena the president to testify about questions surrounding the government’s allegation that Blagojevich was selling or trading Obama’s Senate seat after his election to the White House in November 2008.

“President Barack Obama has direct knowledge of the Senate seat allegation,” reads Blagojevich’s 11-page motion, filed with U.S. District Judge James B. Zagel.

Lawyers for Blagojevich also subpoenaed Sen. Dick Durbin.

Stand by people, looks as if this could get interesting and we could find out how big a radical crook we have as a president! We where told over and over that Obama was a radical socialist politician during the campaign and he still got voted into the White House, now that we can see that he really is the most radical socialist president will we vote him out of the White House in 2012 or will we be stupid enough to give him 4 more years to turn our great Country into a European style socialist one!

UPDATE April 30: A federal judge in Chicago has refused to issue a subpoena for President Barack Obama to testify at former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich’s political corruption trial.

Sotomayor would let prisoners vote

Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor wants to give jailbirds the right to vote. It’s her opinion that the federal Voting Rights Act can be used to force states to allow voting by currently imprisoned felons. Ms. Sotomayor’s dissenting opinion in a 2006 felon-voting case should make senators extremely wary of confirming her for the high court. Read More

Do we the people want felons to vote? I think they lost their rights when they commited a crime and become a felon!
