Even if by some strange twist she loses, that action of donating alone will speak louder than all the hot air coming out of the Murtha cakehole....
and it will give us a sense of pride that we did something truly patriotic, not quite rising to the sacrifice of the founding fathers, most of whom spent their fortunes on the revolution and died poor, scorned and hated by their bitter neighbors who lost sons and never saw the fruits of the war for independence in their lifetimes....(blah,blah,blah etc)
c'mon what more can a hundred bucks buy, a tank of gas ? after Murtha is pulled kicking and screaming from his seat, imagine the sense of pride in knowing you helped make history
:-} Painfully funny! You mention Ms. Irey losing by some "strange twist." Let's be clear. She's still an underdog going against an entrenched, well-funded incumbent. She has an uphill battle. But it's a winnable battle, if we all channel our anger.
