Steamin' Rosie O'Donnell, comin' round the bend Rosie's not looking too jolly.
Her face is contorted, by golly!!
Her weird facial movement
Is not an improvement.
I've seen bigger smiles on a collie.

The Pennsylvania Democrat tarnishes the party's image and nearly receives a reprimand playing 'earmark' politics.
WITH DEMOCRATS like Rep. John P. Murtha of Pennsylvania, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi doesn't need Republicans. After Pelosi promised that Democrats would preside over "the most honest, the most open and the most ethical Congress," Murtha, whom Pelosi unsuccessfully pushed for majority leader, described a Democratic lobbying reform proposal as "total crap." (He graciously added, however, that he'd support the legislation because "that's what Nancy wants.")
Murtha's latest gift to Pelosi is a confrontation in which he allegedly told Rep. Mike Rogers (R-Mich.), who had opposed one of Murtha's pet projects, that "I hope you don't have any earmarks in the defense appropriation bill because they are gone, and you will not get any earmarks now and forever." Rogers, a former FBI agent, asserted that Murtha had turned the House floor into an episode of "The Sopranos," and he filed a resolution accusing his colleague of violating House rules. On Tuesday, the resolution was tabled on a largely party-line vote, but not before Democrats were put excruciatingly on the defensive on what Pelosi has made a signature issue. Expect Republicans to continue making "Sopranos" jokes.

Unfortunately for Democrats, Murtha's confrontation with Rogers was public, as was the vote by which the complaint against the master appropriator was put on procedural ice.
It doesn't help the Democrats' image that this dispute over Murtha's comments originated in an earmark, a special-interest provision widely seen as part of the "culture of corruption" decried by Democrats in the last election.

His district doesn’t care. They get paid off every time he goes back for another term.
That is so obvious....but we can take a page from the democrat play-book and drag this example of human debris out everyday until the public is well informed....at some point even the MSM can't ignore the funk of a skunk....
Cleaning, with Nancy
Pelosi was flapping her gums,
While her face hinted she needed Tums.
She longed to clean House,
To squash-dead each louse
Alas! She’s learned Libs are the bums.
Interesting plan...
Yes!! Nancy kept speaking of Republican corruption, too.
I'd truly love to see that traitorous old drunk melt down on the house floor.
The Ballad of “Big Don” John Murtha
Here’s the story of “Big Don” John Murtha
Whose morals were greatly in dearth-a.
As committee’s main host-a
He runs Casa Nostra.
He shouldn’t hold power no furtha.
Good idea. I hope we do that before Democrats make sure that "crazy" becomes the "new normal."
Now we’ll see if the RNC has the stones to do it.
Let's hope some members of the RNC will think unselfishly about our children's future.

Imagine hanging around the House for 12 years in the minority. Only real losers would do that. Anyone with something going for him would have other options. So is this the change Americans wanted? grouchy old men like Murtha, Rangel, and Waxman?
Yes. In or out of power, the Democrats can always find a way to make a buck.
The LA Times understands General Pelosi and the corrupt John Murtha, along with Dingy Harry Reid, have put the Democrats in a bad light as it relates to the 2008 election cycle.
Works for me.
Too big to disguise
John Murtha piles on the paint
But still can’t hide his trait’rous taint.
His latest ploy
Is “Redeploy
and fight the enemy where they ain’t”
That was the Los Angeles Times that wrote that editorial? Wow!
That's exactly what the Repubs should be doing. Murtha can't help but lose it, and often because of his loss of mental capacity. He's really been slipping mentally in the last year or so.
