In response to a question from a reporter, Rep. John Murtha (D-Penn.) adamantly denied any connection to Kuchera Defense Systems, Inc., which is currently being investigated for alleged fraud.

So much fun to watch him squirm.

[SlowBoat407]

Apparently he can dish out the filthy lying accusations, and he can’t take a few simple questions.

[OneWingedShark]

WHAT will it take to bring Murtha down?
WHEN will he be tried for his treason, committed in plain view and on public television, or his corruption?

[FlingWingFlyer]

Fat Jack claims he was a Marine. If that’s true, why can’t he take any heat without a bunch of whining? He’s acts like a girlyman.

[notaliberal]

To the reporter: ask questions with confidence instead of like a wimp.

The other reporters stood there like a box of rocks. Their testicals and ovaries were removed a long time ago.

Maybe the guy was a lab rat so he could take the heat while the other scooped the story.

snake!

[incredulous joe]

Ah, what the hey,...?

I’ll give the guy points for even asking.

It’s pretty obvious that Murtha’s response was measured to intimidate the guy. Murtha, a long standing scum-bag, probably saw the chink in the guy’s armor and thought that he’d shut the whole thing down real quick.

Hopefully, next time, this reporter will be better prepared and take your advice.

snake!

D@GNIT!
Don't blame, the snake!
Murtha, Is much much, lower than the
(creature of G*d :) poor snake.

Well, if you are going to ask this corrupt creep questions and you know from previous experience how he is going to react, do it with conviction for pete’s sake!

[Windflier]

An angry man is always a lying man...

[incredulous joe]

I agree.

I don’t know the reporter. He sounded like a young guy. Maybe just breaking in?

[notaliberal]

Yes, he did sound young. (I do give him credit for asking questions of that creep Murtha though.)

[KarenMarie]

I thought he was gonna drop dead of a heartache.

[incredulous joe]

"You got all these questions written down, have you?!?!"
