Well, the other Congressbeasts can start by depriving Murtha of said bacon.

Another very good report on Murtha by investigative reporter Sharyl Attkisson of CBS. Murtha has to be upset with part of the MSM who usually cover for him.

Thanks for posting this, Smooth.

"If I'm corrupt," said the congressman, "It's because I take care of my district."

Nope. You're corrupt because you're corrupt you a$$hole.

It may get more traffic later, or tomorrow. But we’ve got it archived now, at least.

>>Taxpayer watchdogs may not like how it looks, but it’s not against the law unless donations were required in order to receive the earmarks. Looking for evidence of wrongdoing, the FBI has recently raided offices of two other companies linked to Murtha.<<

As experienced as he his, he’d have to be a moron to leave evidence of quid pro quo... oh, wait a minute.

To the second!

And...far, farther & even farther out there than far fetched is that CBS (HaaaHaaHaa) is going after Murtha.

They could've done that any time in the last 30 or so years.

Granted, I don't know who Sheryl Atkisson is ~ normally, being associated with CBS, my 1st asumption would be Susan Atkin's secret twin sister, but that doesn't seem to be the case...hmmmm.

Whatever the reason, I'll have a toast (tomorrow) to CBS's Sheryl Atkisson.

Thanks for the good news, and goodnight ;~)

He! He! He!

With all the corrupt members in our Capitol over all the years if there’s any member who could scam the funding for that port it’s Fat Jack Murtha and he could again say he’s just taking care of his constituents.
