Specter threatens to cut funding if White House doesn't cooperate in NSA spying investigation
I'll believe it when I see it, but I really hope Arlen follows through on this:
WASHINGTON - Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Arlen Specter said Thursday he is considering legislation to cut off funding for the Bush administration's secret domestic wiretapping program until he gets satisfactory answers about it from the White House.
"Institutionally, the presidency is walking all over Congress at the moment," Specter, R-Pa., told the panel. "If we are to maintain our institutional prerogative, that may be the only way we can do it."

one thing that gives me hope he means it might be the ruling by the washington judge that ruled against the government about the secrecy in that trial
specter knows the law and might figure the truth is about to hit the fan and he better be on the right side of that fan??
