Fight the tyranny in the White House! Fight it in the streets, in the air, on land and at sea. Fight in the trenches and in the shopping malls. Never give up and never surrender!

:) HA!

I read today that people in his district love what he is saying.

Good post, ss.

Has a Real American stepped up to the plate and announced he/she is running against Congressman Surrender Murtha?

[A CA Guy]

If they love what he is saying then they are stuck on stupid, aren't they?

Then how will they take his failure to vote for immediate withdraw last night?

"I read today that people in his district love what he is saying."

So they love the idea of us surrendering to the terrorists, hightailing it out of there. leaving the Iraquis who trusted us to a bloodbath, formation of countless terror camps in Iraq, and then us having to return and do it all over again.

Zarqawi and bin laden join them in their love for Murtha!

once again it has been shown that the biggest ally of

I'm tempted to think that some of these "news" writers are consulting goat entrails or paying for dream therapy to come up with their stories.

I have to wonder if they would report anything negative about Murtha unless the entire district population stormed the newspaper offices with torches and pitchforks looking for him. :) :)

Where did you read that?

I live in his district, and that's not what I'm hearing.

Mr. Murtha has been a consistent champion for a strong military

I guess it's fine to support a strong military, but when the time came to actually use it, his smoldering case of VietNam Syndrome kicked up and he lost his nerve.

Jack Murtha has the blight, and he is no hawk. His display of histrionic emotionalism on the floor of the House was disgusting and embarrassing. He is a wannabe General McClelland--Dress up his army and march it all around but make sure nobody gets hurt--and nothing worthwhile gets done.

[sit-rep]

what are you hearing??

[smoothsailing]

Not yet, as far as I know. He has been solidly entrenced in these parts for years.

Before Friday, it would have taken dynamite to blast him out of his seat.Now, my guess is, he might be wise to retire.

[smoothsailing]

Disappointment and confusion, mostly.I can't say yet how that will translate at the polls next year.

See post#15. I goofed and posted to myself.

...consulting goat entrails...

if you want to consider their fellow journalist as goat entrails, this may be a common practice.

[sit-rep]

If you will, when you get some "juicy" feedback from your area, flag me to the post...

Really it must be true if you said you read it!

I read today that zinc will increase your sperm count by 500%!

Don't believe everything you read.
