Specter tells Bachmann to "act like a lady"

The deeply odd couple of Sen. Arlen Specter (D-Penn.) and Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) appeared together on a Philly radio station yesterday -- and things got ugly in short order.

Audio link. courtesy RCP.

The exchange, broadcast on 1210 AM's Dom Giordano Show [but not archived on the station's site], began when Specter challenged Bachmann to articulate what, exactly, she stands for, according to a readout on the clash published by the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette's lively Early Returns blog.

Bachmann first laid out her agenda -- cutting taxes and killing President Obama's health reform bill -- at considerable length.

When Specter tried to counter, Bachmann, darling of the Tea Party movement, kept on talking, which didn't sit well with the one-time Philadelphia DA, who is a stickler for politeness and protocol.

"I'm going to treat you like a lady," Mr. Specter shot back. "Now act like one."

Ms. Bachmann replied, "I am a lady."

======================================

What a louse!  How about treating her as a fellow professional that she is??

Spector has no right to tell ANYONE how to act.  He's just trying to get brownie points from the Dems and and especially Barry, since Bachmann has spoken out about Obama's ineligibility issues!

I just saw Bachmann on Hannity. She did not call it sexism.. I wonder why. I wish they would do that bec that is exactly what it is.
