"Even though I think it's total crap, I'll vote for it and pass it because that's what Nancy wants," Murtha told the Blue Dogs, according to three sources who were at the meeting...

He'll vote for it because he got an endorsement from Pelosi. There is division in the ranks and they ain't even assumed power yet.

ABSCAM tapes. Step down, Murtha.

Abramoff Reports to Prison; Officials Focus on Reid, Others . Step Down, Harry.

There's still 4-6 more democrat senatorial scandals ready to float to the surface. Who will the democrats kick out next?

(What? This bill is just political cover because the democrat corruptions are being exposed? The American people voted for THIS?)
