But Murtha also has raised some watchdogs’ concerns because his brother Robert “Kit” Murtha runs KSA Consulting, a lobbying group that represents some 10 smaller defense companies. In 2004, Murtha’s brother was able to secure $20 million in the defense-spending bill for his clients. Kit Murtha repeatedly has denied working directly with his brother’s office.

Murtha is on CSPAN right now trying to defend his call for an immediate withdrawal.

Murtha, swilling deeply at the public trough, lifts his head up to his parishoners, and with buckets of slop drooling off his greasy jowls, grunts rude words designed to get the faithful all charged up to vote him back to the trough for yet another 2 years where he will stick his head down deep, and inhale the thick public broth.

Murtha knows he`s in deep s**t.An ethics probe was on

the horizon for him and the possibly of crimminal charges.

So Murtha knew he could deflect any ethics probe by

playing up his war hero status as immunity in regards to

creating a firestorm of controvery calling for the yellow-

belly cut and run cowards way out of Iraq.

Defense cash focuses on lobbying

Of course, for as long as the voting public can't see the forest for the tree's then a Democratic Republic is lost.

After all, isn't this the agenda of some politicians who presently hold a seat in power?
