Murtha loyalist says "no more"


     Congressman John (Jack) Murtha's radical about-face, left-wing march has left many of his constituents back home puzzled – and angry. Murtha's district is strongly pro-military. Below is a comment from one of Murtha's constituents posted on the Johnstown Tribune-Democrat's online Discussion board:

     "I've long been a supporter of his, and if not for his vicious verbal attacks on our military heroes, I may still be among his most loyal supporters.

     Play petty politics if you want, Jack - and criticize every Republican you can find any nit-picky details on to further your own agenda. But DO NOT use the brave men and women of our military to further your own aspirations.

     Murtha has done a lot of good for the 12th District - and for the Greater Johnstown area. But he has done no more than any other Congressman has done for their district.

     Turning on people who have done NOTHING to you is as cowardly an act as I have ever witnessed in my life.

     Turning on a group of people who have no way of defending themselves against your grandstanding - such as our military - is totally unforgivable.

     It's time for a change.

     Jack Murtha has proven he no longer represents ANYONE except himself and the Democratic party. Absent any tangible topics on which to bash President Bush - Murtha has instead chosen to target the defenseless military Bush commands.

Is that the full measure of a "good" CongressCritter"?

How much "good" he does for the local folks?

How much gravy he brings back from the pig trough?

Have we become so shortsighted as a nation ?

Hopefully, this shows that there are still brain cells working in America. I was beginning to think the American people were brain dead. Only the brain dead would suck up the anti-American rhetoric coming from Liberal Democrats.

Below is a comment from one of Murtha's constituents posted on the Johnstown Tribune-Democrat's online Discussion board:

Let's be accurate: it's a comment allegedly from one of Murtha's constituents. It has some of the hallmarks of a Rush Limbaugh "seminar caller," i.e., the "I've-always-supported-Murtha-BUT..." opening sentence.

Maybe it's genuine. Maybe it isn't. We don't know.

Maybe that person on the other end of the chat you're engaging in really is a gorgeous 20-something bisexual female with a couple of hot friends who wants to party down with you. Maybe it isn't.

Welcome to the Internet. Theme song: "Who are You?" by The Who.

Regardless of the source, it's an excellent piece of writing.

Just beware of "fake but accurate."

Click on the link and read the whole discussion board then... I think you'll find it interesting. This isn't some national show dependent on ratings to stay afloat... It's a small, hometown newspaper's discussion board.

Are you familiar with the term "seminar caller," and what it means?

You didn't even click on the link to the discussion board link, did you. If/when you do you will see the comment is posted by a regular on the Johnstown Tribune-Democat newspaper's online discussion board. Not some 'plant.'

'Course... I'm wondering about YOU now...

Assuming that the "regular" isn't a plant to begin with.

'Course... I'm wondering about YOU now...

An intelligent attitude--you need to wonder about EVERYBODY on the Internet, unless you've met them face to face.

Indeed. That's why I post my name in my tagline. And who are you?

People have come to grief doing just that.
