Non-Ironic Shock: CNN Blazes Murtha For Wasteful Rathole Earmarks For Ineffective, Duplicative Agency
— Ace

His arrogance is astouding. Not only does he brazenly threaten to stop all local spending in any district of any congressman who challenges him, he refuses to even comment on the scandal.

He's John Murtha -- he was a Marine. He doesn't have to explain himself to the public.

The CNN story concludes, "The Democrats promised reform, and it's not happening."

That seems to understate it. It seems to be far worse.

Meanwhile... Hillary! Clinton and her fellow ecoflagellant liberal Senators continue pouring lethal amounts of poisonous CO2 into the atmosphere by using corporate "sponsored" private jets for any trip longer than stopping by 7-Eleven for blunts and Big Gulps.

With this type of crap, the Dems are starting to make it easier for Republicans to make a comeback in '08.

2 I think its a warning to Dems to get their act together or the MSM isn't gonna be able to cover them on this shadiness.

3 He doesn't have to comment on the story. He knows it won't have any legs in the MSM. It will blow over in a few days, while the story about the fascist righties who are against "sensible immigration reform" will carry the day. Austensible conservatives bashing real conservatives for not getting in line is damn fine television. Even FauxNewz is doing that.

Hee hee, if Murtha was a Republican I'd have something really idiotic to say, hee hee.

6 Heh, the nutroots are pissed 'cause the Democrats didn't instantly put all the nutroots' nutbar dreams into action and put all the propaganda into law. Stoopid leftards, did you think the professional pols in the Democrats were gonna REALLY follow through? They have their power back, and are using it to get Hispanic votes to give them near-permanent majority rule through the 21st century. Don't worry though, I am sure the MSM & nutroots will make up with the pols in time for the '08 election season.

8 Oh yeah, and as regards Shrillary taking the plane ride on other peoples' dollar. Shoot, making sacrifices to save the world are for the likes of you and me. It has nothing to do with the actions of the important people, like her. 'Cause, you know, Shrillary is EXEMPT because she in charge of saving the world. She still cares, though. Sincerely.

9 Isn't it Pelosi's job to reign him in?

10 It seems we are on our way to Imperialism after all. Republicans and democrats, doing whatever they damn well please, and screw you if you don't like it.

11 #9 "Isn't it Pelosi's job to reign him in?"

Oh like she'd even make the attempt...she's got her fingers (or more accurately her husband's fingers) in the pork pie too.

Imperialism? No, we did that in 1898 and we still can't get Puerto Rico to go independent. No thanks, we'll help, but you can run your own countries so long as you stop chanting "Death to America" and stop trying to kill us.

Then we can go back to ignoring your pointless existence, like we want to do. But so long as you continue to act like a bunch of gang-bangers on catnip, then you will continue to get occaisional remedial visits from the US Armed Forces.

Actually, Murtha ia an EX-Marine.

One of two.

The other is Lee Harvey Oswald.

Credit where credit's due.

Good on CNN for this one!

15 Pelosi is too deep in Murtha's pocket, literally, to have any control over him.
