WASHINGTON - In the first chapter of what is likely to be a blistering campaign, U.S. Rep. John Murtha's Republican challenger, Diana L.

Good article for Ms. Irey, it's great to see her getting the coverage. That paper must be right in the heart of the 12th District, hope they keep writing positively about her.

Glad you were able to make it and hope you enjoyed it as much as the others.

The treasonous lout has 1.5 million in his campaign chest. Would not surprise me if he was a crook.

Semper Fi translates different when it's a real Marine giving voice to it.

At least three veterans from Virginia? I know of two of us, and I remember this reporter (she was pretty cute) insisting there was a third. Of course she then had to insert "...at least three..." But I can live with it. :-)

Great article Smooth!

Do you know if the writer was the cameraman that asked the question regarding Santorum and Swann?

Glad you made it home safe and sound.

He was the father of the Desert Storm vet that came down from PA. However, I think the Dad was hanging around very early on, so it's possible he lives in VA and met his son there. Dunno. Good guess anyway! :-)
