From www.IREY.com:
Irey Responds to Murthas Comments that U.S. Troops Killed Iraqi Civilians in Cold Blood
IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Jason Davidek 412.330.7844
May 18, 2006
Monongahela, PA Today, Washington County Commissioner and Republican Congressional nominee Diana Irey responded to her opponents recent comments claiming that U.S. Troops were responsible for the death of innocent Iraqi civilians.
I was shocked and dismayed by my opponents charge that U.S. Marines are responsible for murdering Iraqi civilians in cold blood. Why John Murtha would say such a thing in the wake of an ongoing investigation and accuse our troops of such horrific actions is beyond comprehension, Irey said.
Murtha made these comments at a press conference yesterday. Our troops overreacted because of the pressure on them and they killed innocent civilians in cold blood, Murtha said. He made these comments to reporters regarding an incident that occurred November 19th in Haditha, Iraq.
There is no doubt that my opponents disregard for the presumption of innocence and Due Process will have an adverse effect on troop morale. Unfortunately, instead of showing support for our military personnel, his partisan rhetoric will only harm our country at this fragile time. His continued comments are a devastating blow to millions of men, women and children in the Middle East who are just getting their first taste of Democracy. Irey said.
GO DIANA GO!!!

But, at least the leftist newspapers will realize how many people despise Murtha and that has to give us some satisfaction.

Coop re-post from another thread:
I just received word from someone close to Ms. Irey's campaign that they have received about 50 online contributions since 9pm EDT last night. Plus numerous phone calls requesting the campaign address, and a significant spike in website hits.
Thank you Free Republic, for sending a message to Mr. Murtha, and especially to our troops! And thanks to all the other interested forums following this despicable behavior and promoting Murtha's opponent - Diana Irey.

Murtha should be a bit more nervous this morning. He went from the far left rhetoric to now the far, far left rhetoric where 90% of Americans won't step foot.

If you'd been a little more observant and as perfect as you apparently think you are, you would have also noticed I spelled Murtha's name wrong several times too.</sarc>

I am sure you are right. Somehow I think they already know how many people feel about this guy. They are not dumb, on the contrary, extremly cunning and calculating.

most of the text of the note I sent with it....
I am an Army Vietnam Veteran (67-68) and have been appalled with Rep. Murthas efforts to discredit our military personnel, as well as his generally anti-American activities. I truly believe his actions are rooted in his genuine (but obscured) political ideology. He appears to be motivated by much more than can be reasonably attributed to simple partisan politics. This man is a disgrace.
Please accept the enclosed check for your campaign expenses.
Very sincerely, from Michigan,

Good letter. I plan to contact my senators and Congressman asking them to make a public statement on Murtha. I hope others join me.
