Specter's Legacy

Republican Senator Arlen Specter is "incensed over "Spygate," and is demanding an independent investigation. Does this mean that he will finally throw his weight behind investigations to reveal the truth about the administration's warrantless wiretapping program?

Of course not.  Here's Specter's version of Spygate.

Hold on, NFL. Spygate isn't over. Not if the "incensed" Pittsburgh Steelers fan in Congress has anything to do with it. Sen. Arlen Specter on Wednesday called for an independent investigation of the New England Patriots' taping of opposing coaches' signals, possibly similar to the high-profile Mitchell Report on performance enhancing drugs in baseball.

"What is necessary is an objective investigation," Specter said at a news conference in the Capitol. "And this one has not been objective."

Pathetic.
