Am I the only person that sees this statement as a total contradicition from one sentence to the next:

Mr. Specter continued: "If we had pursued what President Nixon declared in 1970 as the war on cancer, we would have cured many strains. I think Jack Kemp would be alive today. And that research has saved or prolonged many lives, including mine."

Only a democrat can get away with doublespeak like this. This man is a joke. At 79 he should be spending time with family, not seeking a 6th term. TERM LIMITS NOW!! Or at the very least a mandatory retirement age for elected office. They (the congress) put mandoatory retirement on others, how about themselves.

It's hard to believe that given his age and health that he would change parties just to be able to get another term. But Washington is like that -- work is your life.

It's sad that Jack Kemp passed away, but there is no guarentee that more research would have come up with a cure for his cancer. I have two friends with advanced cancer and both are still going. They will not be "cured" but thanks to advances in cancer treatment they are both still going and have good quality of life.

Politicians are good at double speak - that's how they stay in office.

I learned a long time ago that a politician's main goal and main focus after being elected is being reelected.

Well, they all should have changed from a 3-blade to a 4-bade prop. Then, added a little HP and moved on........
