Congressman John Murtha continues to show his true colors, and they are not the red, white and blue of the flag our brave servicemen and women are defending around the globe.
Murtha recently voted against the Security Fence Act of 2006, which approved building 700 miles of double-layered fencing along the 2,000 mile U.S.-Mexican border.
Murtha is obviously promoting his anti-administration position in search of a coveted leadership position over the well-being of the nation and its citizens that he swore to serve and protect.
Concerning the Washington County commissioners' pay, Diana Irey has made two motions to reconsider the action and freeze all county elected official's pay increases. Both died for a lack of a second.

Hopefully there are thousands more getting upset with Murtha as these two are. He and other corrupt politicians like him have to go and should be replaced with people who care about the country, like Diana Irey.
