almost 78,000 Veterans there huh? We need to get to them somehow.
We need to find some guys in the VFW and American Legion, and get some access. I guess smoothsailing is working on that.

I could not find any info on active duty veterens. I checked employment status, it only list 311 people in the Armed Forces. There are no figures on National Guard or Reserve status.

Interesting. I would imagine the Guard/Reserves would be "civilian veterans" unless they're actually called up/mobilized. 311 seems awfully low, but I suppose it's accurate (recruiters, liaison officers, etc.) if no big units from that region are called up.

I didn't know they allowed attractive politicans. I guess I'm too used to seeing Pelosi and her ilk.

I would like that. Then the real record of Murtha in Vietnam would percolate to the top. IMHO he forced himself upon the Marine Corps and was of no value to them militarily. Maybe just filled a billet that otherwise would have been left vacant.

last night O'reily did his "talking points" segment on the media and dems attempt to undermine the war in Iraq, he slammed many for helping the enemy but gave Murtha a pass, saying it was OK for him to criticize and that Murtha was not aiding the enemy,
man was I pissed !
then oreily had Laura Ingraham as a guest and he asked her about Murtha,....even she said he was not helping the enemy, just stupid.....
that made me livid ! Don't these people pay atttention ? Do they live in a bubble ?

Then why is Nancy Pelosie calling Republicans and the administration of corruption?
Looks like Pelosie and Murtha have been robbing the government to enrich themselves.

So Murtha and his brother benefit to the tune of millions while he calls troops in harms way cold blooded killers? What a distgusting creature! He is literally profiteering on the backs of the very soldiers he is slandering!

Just an observation but Murtha strikes me as someone who knows he is under investigation, knows he is dirty and is trying to setup a "they are after me because I am out spoken" defense. He just seems to much over the top, he is hiding something. Just my thoughts. Yes, I've read those observations on FR before and agree. Murtha knows he's been under investigation and thought the only way he could stave off the spineless in the GOP that could bring him down, or at least before the ethics committee was to start ranting about the war and call negative attention to himself.
Deflecting his wrongdoing by squealing that he's being persecuted for his views is a well known page out of the commie dems playbook. I'm ready for this sh*t to stop and for the truth about Murtha and his dirty dealings to come out NOW!
One of these days, the GOP will start using the Dems rotten playbook to their advantage. Having meetings and getting on the same page, using talking points would be a good start. They should try it sometime. It would work.
