I've intentionally been staying away from that. Dementia and the like would provide Jack Murtha an excuse for the terrible things he's been saying. I want him held accountable, especially this November.

Good point. Agreed.

However,

Marrying the DIMRATS with the mental image of chronic, rampant, shared DEMENTIA at election time would not be all bad by any means.

Maybe I've read too many thousands of pages of gloablist plans . . . etc.

but . . .

sometimes I wonder, how many of these DIMRAT/RHINO IDIOTS are under--truly under--some sort of skillful mind control. Sometimes they all seem to be following the pied piper at the assylum.

Brave Sir Murtha ran away.
Bravely ran away, away!
When danger reared its ugly head,
He bravely turned his tail and fled.
Yes, brave Sir Murtha turned about
And gallantly he chickened out.
Bravely taking to his feet
He beat a very brave retreat,
Bravest of the brave, Sir Murtha!

"I think he should be held accountable on the gallows."

Double-Dog-Dittos to that! (However, they might have to reinforce those gallows to hold that tub-o-lard.)

At first glance, I thought the title of this article was, Murfa and Indictments. Wishful thinking on my part that one day Murfa will be indicted for his treacherous and treasonous behavior...

According to the South Florida Sun-Sentinel, at a panel discussion in Miami on Saturday, Mr. Murtha said that the "American presence in Iraq is more dangerous to world peace than nuclear threats from North Korea or Iran."

I am in no way defending Murtha, but I understand the Sun-Sentinel retracted the reporting of this statement from Murtha, indicating that they were incorrect in what he said.

Here's a link to the correction from the Sun-Sentinel, but once again, I am not defending Murtha, just stating the facts. I hope he get's defeated in the fall elections.

Highly decorated. American war hero. Combat veteran. Solid contributions to the nation in war. Daring, successful warrior.

In describing former Gen. Benedict Arnold, remember that it's never enough just to wear the uniform.

Murtha was citing a recent poll, by the Pew Global Attitudes Project, that indicates a greater percentage of people in 10 of 14 foreign countries consider the U.S. in Iraq a greater danger to world peace than any threats posed by Iran or North Korea. "

While it's true the reporter said he was citing a poll, it's clear he cited the poll to support his stance so it seems he must have agreed with the poll. I would say it still puts him in a bad light.

... such is the fate of media-made politicians who must ever up the ante of their rhetoric...

Outstanding and so true.

I read the "retraction." Murtha said it, he knows he said it, we know he said it.

I hope he keeps talking, louder and more often!! Every time he speaks, that beautiful DEM donkey logo/emblem should be prominently displayed. He does wonders for the Republican party. Keep talking John, please keep talking!

Between Jackass Murtha's mouth and the death of Zarqawi, Pubbie fortunes have certainly turned more positive regarding the November elections.

Amen to that. We'll have to be sure to thank the DIMS after the elections. They are losing it for themselves. Now we have WSJ slamming the NYT decision to publish the SWIFT info.

Catfight!

I was talking about the transition to the bigger picture. I saw the article yesterday, but had already forgotten about it.

Forgot to respond earlier.

Then you get the credit for jogging my memory with your Supreme Court comment. :-)

This Bozo Murtha has had his big A$$ kissed for so long he thinks he's frigging royalty. I fear this election will be "Night of the living voters". I saw a billboard along Interstate 70 today showing Murtha in a pensive pose that stated something about his "Courage" award. As I rode by I gave it the one finger salute!

Next time drive briefly with your knees so you can give him one for me, too.

Irey - 95% Murtha - 5%
55% margin of error


Is that by Rassmusen? or Pew?
