Agreed and agreed.

Which is why I never looked into rumors about his health. ;O) His health is his business and not mine. There were - and still are - other ways, more efficient and more honorable to use to defeat him.

It's tricky business to mess with a man's military record, and although Murtha, like Kerry, has not signed a SF180, only veterans would care about that.

That's a tough lesson to learn, but reality speaks volumes.

Most folks are more apt to be moved by the sleasniness of a politician, than his cowardice and coverup 40 years ago.

Corruption is what it is, and with Murtha, the evidence is bountiful.

It appears Irey understands this, and has chosen Murtha's failings as a legislator, not as a disgraced X-marine.

Good for her!
