Murtha missionaries
Just in time for the 2006 midterm elections, we learn that supporters of the 2004 Swift Boat Veterans for Truth campaign against Sen. John Kerry are starting "Murtha Lied" -- with a Web site "and all the accouterments of a hotshot political campaign," says the guiding force, retired Navy SEAL Capt. Larry W. Bailey of North Carolina.
Capt. Bailey informs fellow veterans in a memo we obtained that he's just opened a bank account in the name of "Vets for Truth," as "we're going to need enough money to send our Operation Street Corner 'missionaries' into Rep. John Murtha's home district in Pennsylvania."
Mr. Murtha, a veteran of the Marine Corps who has served more than 35 years in the House, has been the most outspoken member in Congress against U.S. war policy in Iraq. Keep an eye out for the veteran group's launch at www.murthalied.com.

In my opinion these are the guys who withstood all the left wing MSM blasts, continued pounding away and were THE most effective in making sure Kerry was exposed.
Sure looking forward to them getting into the arena. Bring in that clown from PMSNBC who kept calling John O'neil Liar, Liar, Liar, and every time he said Liar, the Vets got $30 K.
GO VETS !

Kerry's still sniveling about these guys. Still trying to turn back the clock to those halcyon days when a Nixon administration that wasn't in office sent him into Cambodia on his magic carpet. Seared, seared into his brain...

Murtha sides up with Code Pink
Code Pink has given $650,000 to the terrorists in Fallujah, participated in war crimes tribunals against America and has called American soldiers "killers" on their website among many treasonous actions. They display signs like "Maimed for a Lie" at Walter Reed Army Medical Center where wounded troops are healing.
Text of Code Pink's statement on meeting Rep. Murtha:
Thank You Congressman Murtha! CODEPINK co-founder Gael Murphy and DC coordinator Allison Yorra met with Congressman Murtha to thank him for his courageous stand on Iraq. We presented him with our pink badge of courage and pink flowers sent by CODEPINK members nationwide.

| Murtha's "Cut & Run" Comments on Iraq: "there's no progress at all" "it's worse than it was prewar" "we should immediatley redeploy" "War cannot be won on the ground" "I have said it's a civil war" "We cannot win this militarily. Our tactics themselves keep us from winning," |
Murtha's Comments on our Troops: "Would you join (the military) today?," he was asked in an interview. "No," replied Murtha "And I think you're saying the average guy out there who's considering recruitment is justified in saying 'I don't want to serve'," the interviewer continued. "Exactly right," said Murtha "we have become a catalyst for violence" in Iraq Marines "killed innocent civilians in cold blood." at Haditha "I will not excuse murder, and this is what happened" "This is worse than Abu Ghraib" "Hopefully, this is an isolated incident. But we're supposed to be selling ideas of America, ideals of America, and we're losing that war." "These kind of things have to be brought out immediately," he told "This Week," "because if the Marines got away with it, other Marines might think it's okay." "What they're saying to me is we're stretching the military too thin. The army is broken, and we couldn't deploy to a second front if we wanted to." "The troops don't know what to do. They don't have the direction they need in order to supervise the prisoners," |

But they got it a little wrong, It is not really the "Swifties" who are doing this. It is the Vietnam Vets for Truth. I think that is a different group. I wonder if the "Swifties" will join in? I think some of them have signed up for
Vets4Irey.com so I think they would be sympathetic with the cause to get rid of Murtha. Well, anyway, welcome aboard VVT!

I am Linda Eddy, the webmaster and political cartoonist for Larry Bailey / Vets For The Truth's website. Regarding this article, I have already emailed author John McCaslin that there are a couple of errors in it.
First, the website's official name is NOT MurthaLied.com... it's BootMurtha.com... and we just launched the official website Wednesday evening around 6:00 pm (Central Time).
Second, the group's name is NOT Vets for Truth... it's Vets For The Truth (VFTT).
I just want to get the facts out there. .. thanks! Linda

I'm not sure if it's the Swifties doing this, but personally I think the SwiftVets were responsible for Lurch's downfall.
Can you imagine where we would be today if that coward/traitor/liar were in charge?
Good Lord, we'd be bowing before the U.N. at this very moment.
It can't be said enough: God Bless you, Swifties!

You're so right. And if Vanity (Hannity) has John O'Neill on his show to speak about Murtha this time around, I hope little Seannie lets him talk and has learned how to listen.
John O'Neill is the most concise speaker I have ever heard. He did indeed nearly single-handedly stop John Jacques Strap Effin Shove It Maria Teresa Thierstein Simoes Ferreira Kerry from becoming President.

HALLELUJAH! PRAISE GOD!
May all who feel led, inclined, join in agreeing in prayer similar to the following:
Dear Lord, God Almighty--please protect these patriots; their bank accounts; their families; their travels coming and going; their jobs and all their property by your angelic hosts.
Lord, give them creative wisdom in how to put the enemy to flight and support all the forces of good and righteousness. Cause the enemy's camp to be discomboobalated; thrown into confusion; stumbling around speechless; mumbling stupidities and the like. Cause their evil, unpatriotic, globalist, Marxist idiocies to be plainly, vividly and clearly exposed.
Lord, cause the patriots and all fair-minded folks in Burpa Murtha's district to rise up in righteous indignation and throw him wholesale and embarrassingly out. May he not get more than 5-15% of the vote.
Lord, please expose vividly all his lies; his charades; his posturing; his calamny; his traitorousness.
Lord, may Holy Spirit and your angelic forces make sport with him. Humble, if not humiliate him. If possible, bring him crushed to repentance that he may escape hell. But throw him thoroughly out of public life.
In Jesus' Name and in behalf of His Kingdom, Amen.

Now if some brazen patriotic family member would catch some in a cup at a cleverly disguised urinal, cool it, add a slice of lime and convince him it's Mountain Dew . . . he might end up with a little of his just deserts on the way to a resounding defeat in Nov.
