Another Murtha Indiscretion

We won't have long to wait

Therefore there are two possible villains in this story: Murtha , whose behavior will either be a target of the promised Democratic "swamp cleaning" or a scathing indictment of that Party's failure to abide by its campaign promises, depending on what they do,..."

My money is on the later. Its too irresistible for Dems to control. And not like anyone keeps those scores, or like it makes the headlines when found. That calls for more editorial choice, "that doesn't sell papers, and it looks better on page 12." Then Jackie makes a good hard anti-war statement, and voila, it goes away.

Story that should have

You know what I’d love? A follow up story about that abscam tape. Since Muddy Murtha was making those pointed, though vague, statements what he could do; I’d love to know what those constituents would have thought about his little “sale”? You know, those industries he “cares about”. Would they have known the source of those funds or why? So in a way, too bad we could not see a real ending. Would his constituents know why they were supported, by a rich middle-east shiek, for a quid pro quo from DC? But if so, that story would probably get lost somewhere.

GOOD POST!

Murtha simply sucks. What a sack of crap and to think that he was a Marine. I guess he's that 10% that falls through the cracks and slimes their way into my beloved Corps.
