When will Murtha be investigated?
The media was having a circle jerk when Cunningham was convicted for bribery & what not.
Why are they soooo quiet with Murtha?
When will he get his 15 minutes of shame?
What the **** is it gonna take to get this bastard?
Is it because he's a D instead of an R?
Hmmmmmm, I wonder....

This agreement puts on track the transfer of Parcel A to the City in the next few months. At Pelosi's request, Congressman John Murtha, the ranking member of the Defense Appropriations Subcommittee which has oversight of Naval spending, helped shepherd the agreement through this last critical stage of the negotiations.

In early 2004, Murtha reportedly leaned on U.S. Navy officials to sign a contract to transfer the Hunters Point Shipyard to the city of San Francisco, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. A company called Lennar Inc. had right to the land, and Laurence Pelosi, nephew to House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), was an executive with the firm at that time.

WASHINGTON — When Congress passed the $417-billion Pentagon spending bill last year, Rep. John P. Murtha, the top Democrat on the House defense appropriations subcommittee, boasted about the money he secured to create jobs in his Pennsylvania district.
But the bill Murtha helped write also benefited at least 10 companies represented by a lobbying firm where his brother, Robert "Kit" Murtha, is a senior partner, according to disclosure records, interviews and an analysis of the bill by The Times.
Clients of the lobbying firm KSA Consulting — whose top officials also include former congressional aide Carmen V. Scialabba, who worked for Rep. Murtha for 27 years — received a total of $20.8 million from the bill.

Given the current circumstances which involve Murtha, they both fit.

Not that I agree with Murtha on his business dealings because he is obviously a shady politician but maybe we should listen to someone who has an iota of military experience instead of Cheney and his eleventy billion deferments or Bushy for that matter. The only one in that admin that had a ounce of military cred was Powell and he was snowed by Cheney and Bush on Iraq and then booted out of the admin for asking why to much.
And calling a guy who served on the front lines a coward is a bit of a stretch is it not?
But hey he doesn't agree with your perspective so he must be a coward/traitor.

Murtha has to be the dumbest ex marine still alive. Him and that dumbass Kerry should do the world a favor ans suck on the barrell of a shotgun.
Or at least go quail hunting with Dick Chenay.
With the recent idiocy Kerry ans his idiotic Massachusetts cohort have pulled, I cant believe anyone would have voted democrat.

To that, I tip my hat.
However, since his politics and business dealings are more than slightly shady, I question his stance on the war.
Could he be yelling "Retreat, Retreat!!" to garner favor with those that might indict him?
There's more to this...as usual...than we know.
