WELCOME BACK, MAX!
Max Cleland is coming back to Johnstown!!

Former Sen. Max Cleland of Georgia is throwing a rally in Johnstown, PA for Rep. John Murtha -- the day before Vets for the Truth's Boot Murtha Rally.

The news is highlighted in the following release from Murtha's re-election committee:

[EXCERPT:]

JOHNSTOWN, Pa., Aug. 25 /U.S. Newswire/ -- The Murtha for Congress Committee said that former U.S. Sen. Max Cleland (D-Ga.) announced last night he's leading a large-scale effort among his veteran brothers to support U.S. Rep. John P. Murtha (D-Pa.), who is coming under attack from "radical right-wing forces in the veterans' community" aimed at "swift-boating Murtha, like they did former Democratic nominee for president Sen. John Kerry.

The rally will be held Saturday, Sept. 30, 2006 at 11 a.m. in Central Park in Johnstown, Pa. Cleland said he expects veterans from all over America to make the journey "to support Murtha in an unprecedented show of unity against the war."

VFTT's Boot Murtha Rally is set for Sunday, Oct. 1 starting at 2 pm. Rally participants will gather at Central Park in Johnstown and proceed to the Cambria County War Memorial Arena for the full event. Pennsylvania radio personalities Quinn & Rose of the popular "War Room with Quinn & Rose" show will be co-emcee'ing the Rally. Also lined up for the Boot Murtha Rally:

Terry Pennington, father of Rob Pennington, one of the so-called "Pendleton Eight," who are being held without bail at the Camp Pendleton, CA, brig.  They are being charged with murder and conspiracy, those seven Marines and one Navy Corpsman. 

David Beamer, father of Todd Beamer, leader of the anti-hijacker group on Flight 93 (the man who said, "Let's roll!"

John Wrobleski, father of a Marine killed in Iraq, and who deeply resents the dishonor brought upon the USMC by Murtha's comments.

Gregg Garvey, father of Justin Garvey, who was killed in Iraq, founder of a program that enables local communities to purchase and erect memorials to their fallen sons and daughters.  He will lead the memorial service that precedes the rally.

How much has Iran/Syria and other Opecker Islmo Thugs paid Murtha/Pelosi for their attacks on our military and the innocent Iraqis? Thanks to Potlatch's creative skills with the graphic art below.

Your creative work below gives great insight to the mindset of the Hatriotic Murtha.

he knows he's finished,

Don't kid yourself. This is Murtha fighting back, and quite frankly - given historical precedent - their rally may dwarf ours. But all the shrieking and whining from Murtha and Cleland isn't stopping us, and it isn't stopping the Irey campaign either.

You're right, he is running scared.

Employ the 'Hax-a-Max' tactics at the Saturday pro-pig Murtha rally.

Freep the rally with Irey Vets....

Murtha and Cleland are both Democrat traitors, guilty of treason to the USA and should be tried, convicted and sentanced accordingly!!!

Looks like Murtha and his cronies are more than a little worried about Diana Irey. Organizing a counter rally a day before your opponents rally is high school kid stuff, typical of Murtha and friends.

An incumbent who is not worried ignores his opponents. An incumbent who is very worried reacts to his opponents.

Murtha is crapping cinder blocks about now. He has hitched himself so closely to the antiwar movement that he has no chance of distancing himself come November.

Yeah, everyone says that on basically every thread. But it's not gonna happen.

So we can either thrown Murtha out of office in November, or this type of behavior will increase!

And so far I haven't seen that many people willing to take a stand. Talk is cheap.
