Freeper Exclusive: Information on Mass Rep who failed to support the Pendleton 8
several | 07/23/2006 | RaceBannon

Posted on 07/23/2006 3:28:25 PM PDT by RaceBannon

This thread is a result of several Freepers investigations into a Massachusetts Representative who has failed to help support one of the Pendleton 8, a Marine Sgt who is being held for murder and vilified in the media before a trial has even occured.

The information found so far is DAMAGING! Connections to CAIR and other Islamic organizations abound, and this information needs to be sent out to the world.

This man is no different than Jack Murtha, the EX-Marine, except Delahunt avoided service as far as I know.

Statement by Delahunt's opponent for Congress:

Statement by Jeff Beatty in Support of Israel
As a Candidate for US Congress in the 10th Congressional District (Quincy/South Shore/Cape Cod & Islands), I firmly support Israel’s right to defend her population against unprovoked acts of terror, including the missile attacks launched against Boston’s sister city, Haifa. I am disappointed that my opponent did not sign the letter that appeared in today's Boston Herald and Globe in support of Israel. I express my heartfelt concern for the safety of all innocent people, including Israelis, Palestinians, and Lebanese. Israel is to be commended for the extra risk it is putting on its' soldiers and airmen as they operate in close proximity to their enemy to laser designate discreet small targets such as rocket launchers and even individual Hezbollah terrorists, as Israel seeks to avoid civilian casualties. Often, as it did yesterday, this running of additional risk to avoid civilian (Lebanese) casualties results in the death of more Israeli soldiers. To the families of those soldiers, I extend my deepest sympathy for their loss and admiration for the courage of their loved ones.

Delahunt was my Rep. before I moved a while back.

I have long considered him to be the dumbest of all the Mass. delegation.

He says really stupid things sometimes, but the local papers tend to keep his speeches off the Internet for the most part.

Total Squarehead.

CAIR was also a signatory to a MAY 20, 2004 Joint Muslims/Arab-American Statement on Israeli Violence in Gaza, which "strongly condemn[ed]" Israel's "indiscriminate killings of innocent Palestinians, including many children," and its "demolition of Palestinian homes." The statement made no mention of the fact that Israel - unlike Palestinian suicide bombers - never intentionally targets innocent civilians, and that the home demolitions are entirely related to anti-terrorist measures.

In addition, CAIR endorsed the Civil Liberties Restoration Act (CLRA) of 2004, which was introduced by Democratic Senators Ted Kennedy, Patrick Leahy, Russell Feingold, Richard Durbin, and Jon Corzine, and Democratic Representatives Howard Berman and William Delahunt. The CLRA was designed to roll back, in the name of protecting civil liberties, vital national-security policies that had been adopted after the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

This information needs to be sent to all the conservative talk show hosts so it can be broadcast all over the country. IMO, traitors need to be given all the publicity they deserve.

What did Delahunt do regarding the 8? Was it silence or was it something he said?

Delahunt was asked why the family could not contact their son weeks ago, and all he did was offer to refer a lawyer

While you're at it, tell us what the president has done to support the Pendleton 8, other than to say they'd be punished if found guilty.

Yes. This guy is as bad as Murtha. Any one of those Marines alleged to have commited war crimes has more honor in their toe then these rotten bums have in total.

FYI...Congressman Delahunt hasn't demonstrated much support for the family of one of the Pendleton 8 who reside in his MA District 10.

He has some very interesting ties to various Muslim (CAIR) and far left groups like Code Pink. And he's very cozy with Chavez.

Although he's not as vocal as Murtha....many Freepers think he needs to be 'redeployed' just like Murtha.

Please read posts: 1, 5 & 7........and let us know what you
think.

What Congressman Delahunt is not doing and the unholy strings attached to him, make him worse than Murtha. All of his Thuggee Hasidim behavior should be proclaimed loudly across his home district so that he couldn't get elected to any office.

Good evening. Thanks for the pings.

A little off topic, but ya know that 33% of all the colonials in 1776 sided with King George. Gave aid and comfort to the enemy they did. I guess that's why we have a BOR, and the Third Amendment.

OH, almost forgot to mention the penalty for treason stated in the Constitution (death).

I was appalled at some of the orgs that supported CAIR.

Delahunt also has some interesting contributors to his campaign races.

I will look at this more carefully in the morning. Thanks for the ping.
