Why is tax money being spent on commercial airport runways?

And why must the American Taxpayer be subjected to insult upon injury by naming it after a politician many of us despise?

I named something “Murtha” today but I flushed it a few minutes later.

The ‘quiet regional airport’ getting $800,000. Geez, this man is despicable.

$800K is just a drop in the bucket to the $150 million already wasted on this airport.

I’ll bet a dollar that the “No Bid” contract will be let to a Murtha grandson or someone like that.

Rename the airport, say “Jeffrey Chessani/Justin Sharatt Memorial Airport”.

The Tea Party Express will be coming through Murtha's neighborhood to further expose him for what he is.

Congressman Jack Murtha


National Taxpayer Union Rating: F (source: ntu.org)
Named "The King of Pork" for his wasteful, pork-barrel spending (source: youtube.com)
Shamefully and wrongly accused our troops of misconduct (source: youtube.com)
It will also be targeting Senator Arlen Specter, Congressman Jason Altmire and Congressman Christopher Carney
Senator Arlen Specter


National Taxpayer Union Rating: D (source: ntu.org)
Not only did Senator Specter provide the deciding vote to push through the $819 billion "porkulus" spending plan, but
Specter announced he would be switching political parties because Republican voters were rejecting him. Specter stands
for the worst kind of political self-aggrandizement that has corrupted Washington, and vanquished the idea of the "citizen legislator" and replaced it with the current culture of political prostitution that has hurt our government and our nation.  Let us
hope Pat Toomey can replace Specter and provide Pennsylvanian’s with principled, fiscally responsible representation
(Source: youtube.com).

Congressman Jason Altmire


National Taxpayer Union Rating: F (source: ntu.org)
Voted for and spoke out in support of $819 billion "porkulus" spending plan (souce: altmire.house.gov)
Voted for taxpayer-funded mortgage bailout (source: opencongress.org)
Refused to join fiscally conservative "Blue Dog" coalition (source: house.gov)

* POLITICALLY VULNERABLE:  He was re-elected in 2008 with only 55.9% of the vote.

Congressman Christopher Carney


National Taxpayer Union Rating: F (source: ntu.org)
Supported bailout of financial services companies (source: opencongress.org)
Repeatedly voted for higher taxes and pork-barrel spending (source: clubforgrowth.net)

* POLITICALLY VULNERABLE: He was re-elected in 2008 with only 56.4% of the vote.
The Tea Party Express will end in Washington, DC on 9-12-2009 for a giant rally.
DAY 16 – Saturday, September 12th

09.12.09 Taxpayer March on D.C. - Details
Freedoms First – Rally for the Constitution
Mark your calendars where ever you are along the route, and lets meet in DC on Sept 12th!
