PITTSBURGH (AP)  U.S. Rep. John Murtha says his home base of western Pennsylvania is racist and that could reduce Barack Obama's victory margin in the state by 4 percentage points. 
The 17-term Democratic congressman tells the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette in a story posted Wednesday on its Web site that, as he put it: "There is no question that western Pennsylvania is a racist area."

    So, he insults them but wanna bet they vote him back in?
 
To: pissant
    someone needs to mock up and ‘certified race card’ with Bambi’s face on it. This is absurd.
This will not end on election day. If he is elected, every opposition to policy will be race based too. This could be the culmination of the entire political correctness movement.

    Now THIS should be an ad. The only thing you see or hear is Murtha calling half the state of Pennsylvia Racists.

    Amazing if this fool will get re-elected. I think Lou Barletta will be that other Dem scum in PA.

    96% of Western Penn blacks will vote for Obama but, somehow, the whites are racists.
Will someone please put out a disturbing advertisement of this state of affairs? Please?

    So, they may or may not be racist, but they sure are stupid.

    Yeah, that’s a seriously messed-up re-election strategy. “Vote for me, you racist hicks!”

    Most Important Point: This kind of extremist kook will soon be running the White House, House, Senate AND Supreme Court.

    THOSE PEOPLE are nuts. Anyone who votes Obama and gang back into office needs their heads examined.
