Polipundit ^ | Nov. 16, 2006 | Michael Sparxx

BREAKING NEWS:

Conservatives with Attitude! insiders are informing us that Congressman John Murtha will DROP OUT of the running for the number 2 spot in the House as Majority Leader.

Even if he does stay in the race, he will fall short by a few votes.

This will serve as a big blow to Nancy Pelosi.

LOL! E.D. Hill was just doing a newsreader about the Democrats voting for House Maj. leader and the video accompanying it was Muslims bobbing and weaving over their prayer books in Pakistan. It was an early transition to her story about muslims pretending to be clerics being arrested in the U.S. or something like that. It was the unvarnished truth, for once.

Now that they are in power as a result of garnering the entire malcontent vote, they're dumping their Poster Boys one after another.

Majority Leader's Race - MURTHA STILL IN THE RUNNING (Not Dropping out!)
HOTLINE ^ | 11/16/06

An earlier post incorrectly insinuated that Rep. John Murtha's campaign has conceded the majority leader's race.

Murtha's campaign hasn't conceded.

The vote for majority leader hasn't yet occurred.

We regret leaving our readers with the impression that the race was decided before it was decided.

I sincerely hope the Democrats are stupid enough to put the Patriarch of Corruption in power as the Majority Leader.

It would bring oodles of fun!

I hope Murtha does win -- the RAT caucus will unravel that much faster.

I didn't think he would either. He's got a salty tongue to go with the raisin brain.

I saw the Prowler blurb eureka! is quoting in Post 40.

Is there a source saying that she's actually making phone calls?

I'll bet his comment yesterday about Nancy's ethics bill being "total crap" had a little to do with it. LOL! This guy is way to senile to be working.
