Day By Day by Chris Muir

Democrat Representative Jack Murtha is your typical East Coast POL who plays every angle for his own sake or his families. If there ever was a case to be made for federal term limits, it is with Jck Murtha. He has been in office way too long.

Will the FBI ever ferret out enough evidence to convict Murtha of a crime? Hard to say, but there have been enough Bureau investigations of him to warrant that statue.

Democrat Representative John Murtha of Pennsylvania

Remember last week when Democrat Congressman John Murtha called Western Pennyslivania voters racist? Then he apologized which was no great surprise.

But, there is more.

Congressman Murtha is now calling the Pennsylvania voters who put him in office “REDNECKS.”

U.S. Rep. John Murtha is calling many of the people who put him in office “rednecks.”

The news comes one week after Murtha claimed the area is racist, then apologized for that comment.

In explaining his comments about racism, Murtha told WTAE it’s difficult for many in the area to change. Murtha said that just five to 10 years ago the entire area was “redneck.”

Key graph:

“What I said, that indicted everybody, that’s not what I meant at all. What I mean is there’s still folks that have a problem voting for someone because they are black,” Murtha said.

As Murtha opens his mouth more foot goes into the crevice.

Nothing like insulting your voters right before an election.

Murtha says Dems could consider impeachment

Rep. John P. Murtha (D-Pa.) said Sunday that Democrats in Congress could consider impeachment as a way to pressure President Bush on his handling of the war in Iraq.

“What I’m saying, there’s four ways to influence a president. And one of them’s impeachment,” Murtha, chairman of the House Appropriations defense subcommittee, said on CBS’ “Face the Nation.”

Before or after you impeach Vice President Cheney?

This sounds to Flap like a power grab without an election. Murtha is using the Iraq War as a political foil to exert and consolidate Democrat political power.

Who is Murtha trying to fool? The old dumbass MORON.

By the way, please impeach the President…….

Cox & Forkum: Crossroads

The Washtingon Post: Not the ‘Real Vote’.

[Rep. John Murtha (D-Pa.)] would stop the surge by crudely hamstringing the ability of military commanders to deploy troops. In an interview carried Thursday by the Web site MoveCongress.org, Mr. Murtha said he would attach language to a war funding bill that would prohibit the redeployment of units that have been at home for less than a year, stop the extension of tours beyond 12 months, and prohibit units from shipping out if they do not train with all of their equipment. His aim, he made clear, is not to improve readiness but to “stop the surge.” So why not straightforwardly strip the money out of the appropriations bill — an action Congress is clearly empowered to take — rather than try to micromanage the Army in a way that may be unconstitutional? Because, Mr. Murtha said, it will deflect accusations that he is trying to do what he is trying to do. “What we are saying will be very hard to find fault with,” he said.

Mr. Murtha’s cynicism is matched by an alarming ignorance about conditions in Iraq. He continues to insist that Iraq “would be more stable with us out of there,” in spite of the consensus of U.S. intelligence agencies that early withdrawal would produce “massive civilian casualties.” He says he wants to force the administration to “bulldoze” the Abu Ghraib prison, even though it was emptied of prisoners and turned over to the Iraqi government last year. He wants to “get our troops out of the Green Zone” because “they are living in Saddam Hussein’s palace”; could he be unaware that the zone’s primary occupants are the Iraqi government and the U.S. Embassy?

It would be nice to believe that Mr. Murtha does not represent the mainstream of the Democratic Party or the thinking of its leadership. Yet when asked about Mr. Murtha’s remarks Thursday, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) offered her support. Does Ms. Pelosi really believe that the debate she orchestrated this week was not “the real vote”? If the answer is yes, she is maneuvering her party in a way that can only do it harm.

Well, Jack Murtha and Hillary Clinton will have to put their votes where their mouths are, now won’t they?

Flap will look forward to the show…..
