Ex-Pittsburgher in middle of earmark scandal (Murtha & PMA)

When I read Fat Jack’s statement I was floored. He’s always been arrogant but I believe this is just further proof of his progressing senility.

As was I. But the more I think about it, the less surprised I am. Murtha has probably been told to play nice with Magliochetti. If he does anything to upset him, he could be fingered by him.

If he does anything to upset him, he could be fingered by him.

You could be right about that. Then again PM has to have money coming out his ears and to rat out Fat Jack he'd have to cop a plea bargain which would certainly mean jail time for him. I'm not too sure he'd do that unless the feds absolutely have him nailed to the wall which would be nice if they did.

[smoothsailing]

That's a good point.

Remember ABCSAM though, it was Murtha who dropped the dime on other congressmen to save his own hide.

Murtha and Magliochetti go way back, and my guess is they both would turn on each other if it meant self-preservation. No honor among thieves and all of that.

[jazusamo]

Heh Heh!

I’d sure be nice to see them turn on each other, we could have quite a celebration.

It may not be too long til we find out. :-)

I'll bring the popcorn, if you'll bring the beer! :o)

[StarCMC]

Bump that.

[Semper Fi Mom]

And I’ll bring the wine! And the hats and the noisemakers!!

[smoothsailing]

IT'S A DEAL!!!!!!!!!!!!

[jazusamo]

Sounds great to me, I'm bringin' the beer.

I was steered on to a good red wine, SFM by CG. :-)

Standin' Tall and Lookin' Good!!!!! :o)

Didn’t the House just vote to put off an ethics investigation on Murtha?

[Constitutions Grandchild]

Thanks, Guys. I want everyone to buy a bottle if they can find it. Another OCS candidate informed me it is available outside Quantico and all proceeds DO go to support wounded Marines and the families of the fallen.

If you enjoy a good table red this is a delight in every imaginable way — the senses and the spiritual and material support of those we love.

What an outstanding, talented, gifted group of men and women we have — did I mention how handsome and lovely they are in uniform (and, in addition, they have a sparkle to their eyes and soul that make them irresistible to all who know them — especially kids and dogs who can recognize a noble spirit when they encounter it). ;-) Semper Fi, my darlings, wherever you are, with hugs and kisses.

"That's rich coming from the lying sack of dung, Fat Jack Murtha."
Bears repeating Jaz.
