Former Pennsylvania Senator Arlen Specter threw a bit of a temper tantrum during a live interview on a conservative radio talk show. The Republican-turned-Democrat was appearing on the Jason Lewis Show to promote his new book when he said, I have one final comment, I gave you 10 minutes. Youve been over every subject except for my book. Ive listened to two rounds of your commercials. I think its insulting. Ive been in a lot of interviews in the course of the past 30 years and you are absolutely insulting!
The programs host then blasted back, saying, Good God. This is not public radio. I dont have a government grant. Weve got to pay the bills; theyre called commercials. Capitalism.
The exchange continued with Specter saying, Im talking about someone whos civilized. I told you the last time around I wasnt going to sit around and listen to your commercials, and I didnt want to hang up on you. This is no way for anybody to run an interview. Im as experienced as you are, if not more so.

The arrogance of a liberal, and Specter was always a liberal, when he was a Republican and now that he's a Democrat.
