[Sprite518]

Just turned to CNN for giggles and there is that suppose independent Analysis yelling this is a Stunt by the Republicans... I was on 5 seconds and I heard pure bias..... Back to Fox News and C-Span...

Oh, oh.....I think Murtha just stepped in it. Something about ordering a soldier home who wanted to stay there. Will have to study this tomorrow.

Why do the Dems stories remind me of this?;

Jim Lehrer: Which beings us to our final question. Governor Bush, both you and the Vice-President have offered plans to provide prescription drugs for the elderly. What makes your plan superior?

Al Gore: Jim, I'd like to interrupt here and answer that question as if it were my turn to speak. Jim, let me tell about a friend of mine. [ holds up a picture of an elderly woman ] Her name is Etta Munsen. She's 94, she's a widow living on Social Security in Sparta, Tennessee. Etta was born with only one kidney. She also suffers from poilo, spinal menengitis, lung, liver, and pancreatic cancer, an enlarged heart, diabetes, and a rare form of styctic acne. Now, several recent strokes, along with an unfortunate shark attack, have left her paralyzed and missing her right leg under the knee. Just last week she woke from a coma to find that, due to a hospital mix-up, her left arm had been amputated, infected with syphillis, and then reattached.

Jim Lehrer: Mr. Vice-President, we are short of time..

Al Gore: As you can imagine, Jim.. Etta's prescription drug bills are staggering. They run to nearly $113 million a day! And she tells me that some weeks she has to choose between eating and treating her Lyme Disease. Now, under my plan, Etta's prescription drugs would be covered. Under my opponent's plan, her house would be burned to the ground. And that is wrong. That is just wrong!

[Darksheare]

Egads.

[FreeAtlanta]

That guy is such a blow hard.

[eeevil conservative]

I wish we could get some violin music in the background for ole Murtha when he talks..... would go much better with my Silver Bullets and Popcorn....

What do these stories have to do with the bill?

[SteveMcKing]

Murtha's branding our vets right now - painting them shell-chocked nutcases.

Just like they did to the Nam vets.

[Soul Seeker]

because soldiers overwhelming support this war. And I know beyond shadow of doubt the troops following this are shouting him down and cheering those standing up FOR THEM.

[FairOpinion]

The Democrats are trying to demoralize the troops and encourage the terrorists.

They should all be tried for treason, for giving aid and comfort to the enemy, very tangible aid!

[nutmeg]

Is Murtha leading up to some waterworks?

Yeah, it's sure looking like it...

[4integrity]

Lantos made a big deal that a Rep wasn't talking to Rep. Hunter's bill....Well, why doesn't a R stand up and object that Murtha is not talking to Rep Hunter's bill...

[Tribune7]

He's repeating himself.

[processing please hold]

Reading all these post about Muther, I have to wonder, what idiots elected all these idiots?

JD, a man with a pair.

[palmer]

"Our troops have become the enemy". Duh, it's a war.

[Wild Irish Rogue]

Notice how it all comes back to Murtha.
" I " did this and " I " did that.
Now the troops have become the enemy.

[Petronski]

"Our troops have become the enemy."




F YOU MURTHA

[kabar]

It is all about Murtha. The guy has an ego the size of Alaska.
