WHY DOESN'T JACK WANT TO DEBATE? REASON NUMBER 21: HE DOESN'T WANT ANYONE TO KNOW HE'S VOTED HIMSELF 12 CONSECUTIVE PAY RAISES
Monday, October 16, 2006
(MONONGAHELA, October 16) -- Washington County Commissioner and Pennsylvania 12th district Republican Congressional nominee Diana Irey -- responding to Jack Murtha's refusal to meet with her to debate the issues -- today released this statement:
"Why is Jack Murtha scared to debate me? Two leading newspapers in our district -- the Washington Observer-Reporter, and Jack Murtha's own hometown newspaper, the Johnstown Tribune-Democrat -- have now urged him to debate. Several TV stations have offered to air the debate, so that the public can tune in for themselves and see the contrasting visions we have. And the League of Women Voters has offered to sponsor and set up the debate.
"Yet Jack Murtha refuses. His official response was, 'My record's out there for everyone to see … I've done it the same way all the time.'
"Of course, Jack Murtha is counting on the fact that everyone in the district thinks he's the same old Jack Murtha they always knew. But we know otherwise. As I've pointed out before, if you think the Jack Murtha of 2006 is the same Jack Murtha you've been supporting for the last three decades, you don't know Jack -- and for proof, you can visit YouDontKnowJack.org to read up on the Jack Murtha you never knew.
"As I said last week, the only reasonable conclusion one can reach is that Jack Murtha is flat-out scared to debate me. He knows I will hold him accountable for his record, and for his behavior as our Congressman. And he knows that debating me would be a sure-fire loser for his campaign.
"But just because Jack Murtha is scared to debate me doesn't mean the voters of the 12th District should be denied the information they would have received had Jack Murtha been willing to meet to discuss the issues. So today, and for the remaining days of this campaign, I will offer one reason per day why Jack Murtha is scared to debate me. There are 21 days left to campaign, so I will offer 21 reasons.
"Reason #21 that Jack Murtha is scared to debate me: he doesn't want anyone to know that HE HAS VOTED HIMSELF TWELVE CONSECUTIVE PAY RAISES."

You're right that we have to keep beating the war chest drum. Diana Irey only has us to help.
All the Donks, I told they should vote on Wendesday told me that is Thursday you Dork.

LOL! Those dorks is right!!!
Diana will win Big Time!!!!!
Amen to that, brother! (And signing off!)
Bravo Gitmo, to you and your family. Thanks again for your support.
G'Nite Red, we'll give it heck tomorrow.
My actions = My life
I just discovered the RNC national site.
Now this site shouldn't be a big surprise and perhaps you guys have already discovered it.. but honestly.. they are up to some really cool things. I am concentrating on working my own precinct. Putting out signs and walking to place literature. And, I have been feeling lonely because alot of Republicans around here are intimidated by Democrat rage. It has some tools for folks to make a real difference on their own block. To get something done, not just donating money and writing to campaign staffers who don't have the time to answer.
Check out setting up local organization and watch your eyes pop out.
Tell me what you think.
I'm planning on sending a donation in this week (after payday). This is a first time donation to a specific candidate. My future daughter-in-law is from PA. She doesn't like Murtha either.
AND - You are a great American!!!
