BootMurtha launches PA District 12 Vets Mailing Goal

Retired Captain Larry Bailey and his newly formed group Veterans For The Truth (VFTT) have launched a "Boot Murtha Project" to redeploy Rep. John Murtha (D-PA). The first salvo in their campaign is to reach approximately 18,000 veterans in Murtha's 12th District of Pennsylvania.

That's a lot of veterans!

Bailey said, "Congressman Murtha has told these veterans many things during his 38-year political career – about himself, about our military, about how 'good' he is for them.

"But who's telling them the real facts? Certainly not John Murtha and certainly not the pro-Murtha, cover-up-Murtha's-messes Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, Philadelphia Inquirer or the Johnstown Tribune-Democrat!"

So, the people at BootMurtha believe the veterans in Rep. John Murtha's PA District 12 deserve to know the truth about their Congressman. With Murtha's re-election rapidly approaching this Nov. 7th, it is important to arm the veterans in Murtha's 12th district with the facts. In this way, they can help change the outcome of the election.

"They can not only change the outcome in the 12th district of Pennsylvania, they can also change the outcome in the nation by helping to keep Murtha home defending his seat. In this way, he will not be able to travel around the country spreading his pre-trial convictions of our soldiers and his cut-and-run policies," Bailey said.

Boot Murtha has set out to raise funds to mail every veteran in the 12th District "The Truth About Murtha."

It will cost less than two quarters per veteran to accomplish the goal. It will also take time and effort by many folks. Boot Murtha believes that Pennsylvania veterans gave their best for our country and now we need to do likewise for them.

The goal of $7,750.00 has been set to accomplish the mailing. Boot Murtha is seeking the help of fellow concerned citizens to reach that goal. Target date for receiving the needed funds is July 14th.

Time is short!

Please contribute what you can and help us spread the word about this. Each contribution, no matter its size, is greatly appreciated.

Individuals are urged to check the BootMurtha.com homepage daily for updates on the progress being made to reach the goal!

What a disgusting piece of crap that jerk is. I'm 3 states and several hundred miles from that district. If I lived there, I would be doing all I could to get rid of him.

Meanwhile his brother, Kit, continues to profit greatly but is ignored by MSM. Crooked, politically connected war profiteers deserve the spotlight of public exposure.

I am not in Penn - but I sent a contribution to the lady running against him. I have heard that she is not getting support from the national campaign. Is that correct?

Murtha definitely needs to be redeployed - ASAP & PDQ!

This is great.

I dealt with Larry Bailey extensively in 04 during the efforts of he and I, Scott Swett (WinterSoldier.com) Swift Boaters and many, many other Vietnam Vets to help expose John "The Snake" Kerry for who and what he really was.

I believe that Larry (a former seal) is an honorable man and dedicated to help preserve the honor and integrity of our military and I will be sending him a donation immediately after this post.

Suggest others check him out and if possible (and you believe like I do, that Murtha (regardless of his service in Nam) has crossed the line of decency and his attack on our military has exceeded the bounds of simply criticizing Bush or the War.

Bailey has a web site that he used in organizing the protest in Washington, for those who remember and its called "Kerry Lied and Good Men Died."

Diana Irey is a real American Patriot!
She's all over the phony cut and run murtha.
Every vet in America needs to back her and sign up for the Veterans Roll Call
The only "vets" who wouldn't would be the "vets" who supported hanoi harry.
All a real vet has to do is "sign" his/her real name.
Branch of Service
Dates of Service
Your State
Your e-mail address
Any other info is optional

REAL Vets, on other forums, where support for Diana Irey is not allowed
can post their info here and the liberal forums won't even know.
Nor will FR even know.

Why would a REAL vet NOT sign the Veterans Roll Call?
Time for REAL Vets to stand Proud and Tall for our men and women on active duty now!

Murtha sides up with Code Pink

Code Pink has given $650,000 to the terrorists in Fallujah, participated in war crimes tribunals against America and has called American soldiers "killers" on their website among many treasonous actions. They display signs like "Maimed for a Lie" at Walter Reed Army Medical Center where wounded troops are healing.
Text of Code Pink's statement on meeting Rep. Murtha:
Thank You Congressman Murtha! CODEPINK co-founder Gael Murphy and DC coordinator Allison Yorra met with Congressman Murtha to thank him for his courageous stand on Iraq. We presented him with our pink badge of courage and pink flowers sent by CODEPINK members nationwide.


Murtha's "Cut & Run" Comments on Iraq:

"there's no progress at all"

"it's worse than it was prewar"

"we should immediatley redeploy"

"War cannot be won on the ground"

"I have said it's a civil war"

"We cannot win this militarily. Our tactics themselves keep us from winning,"

Murtha's Comments on our Troops:

"Would you join (the military) today?," he was asked in an interview. "No," replied Murtha

"And I think you're saying the average guy out there who's considering recruitment is justified in saying 'I don't want to serve'," the interviewer continued. "Exactly right," said Murtha

"we have become a catalyst for violence" in Iraq

Marines "killed innocent civilians in cold blood." at Haditha

"I will not excuse murder, and this is what happened"

"This is worse than Abu Ghraib"

"Hopefully, this is an isolated incident. But we're supposed to be selling ideas of America, ideals of America, and we're losing that war."

"These kind of things have to be brought out immediately," he told "This Week," "because if the Marines got away with it, other Marines might think it's okay."

"What they're saying to me is we're stretching the military too thin. The army is broken, and we couldn't deploy to a second front if we wanted to."

"The troops don't know what to do. They don't have the direction they need in order to supervise the prisoners,"

You do not have to live in the district to help Mrs. Irey win! You can donate to her campaign, sign up to receive e-mails, write letters to the editor, inform vets they can sign up as a supporter and be put on our Irey/Murtha ping list. ;*)

Diana has received contributions from all 50 states and our TROOPS IN IRAQ!

Thanks Fuddy! I just wish the PA Veterans Associations would be more vocal on this matter. Heck, isn't he PA's problem. I know, many of my husband's relatives live in the Scranton area and they are as much in the dark politically speaking, as most mainstream Democrat's. They still think it's the party of JFK.

Good morning Justa, this mailing to veterans is a great idea. If they can get the truth, It'll make a big difference.
