If Murtha wins the people in that district can go to Hell
Extrememly extreme dittos to that comment! People must be held responsible for their actions and voting for Murtha makes one deserving of naught but scorn and loathing.
Murtha voter: “Where am I going? And why am I in this handbasket?”
Goodbye Murtha you commie POS!
BTTT

Those Americans in PA bear the responsibility of looking the other way.
So he thought he was immune.
They thought they were immune, too.
An important lesson I learned from a good black preacher:
If you hang out in the pigsty, you start smelling like the pigs.
..begin to see their constituency as rednecks...etc...
== = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = == = = = = = =
I had always thought the term redneck was attributed to the ‘stoop’ laborers whose neck and arms were darkened due to the exposure to the elements while working in various forms of the construction and agriculture fields.
Hence IMNSHO redneck means Hard Working, Middle Class.
After reading Wikipedia’s description I see it further traces back to Scots and Northern Irish that came to this country and settled in the Appalachians and South etc....
Now with that ‘definition’ doesn’t calling ‘poor whites’ rednecks fall in the same vein as calling Black People N.....s?
The wikipedia def also refers to rednecks/poor white trash in their summation.....
Rednecks now are folks that work hard, don’t blame others for their predicament, and cling to guns and religion. ;)
But its funny with Murtha. He certainly could say without raising an eyebrow “We Rednecks”. But when he doesn’t place himself in that group anymore, he slanders them. He can’t represent his constituency any more.
In 2006, 60% of those voters put Murtha in office, 40% were disgusted with him and voted for Diana Irey.
This time, even more of us are disgusted,and the goal is to make sure it's more than 50% who vote for Russell.
Whatever the outcome, those who support Murtha will always be seen by me this way....
Quite appropriate : )
