		<description>[...] Posted by crushliberalism on August 13th, 2007  Check this out from Hot Air (including audio of Abscam Jack&#8217;s office hanging up when asked about the Haditha Marines): When he wasn’t busy over the past year or so arguing that we ought to fight al Qaeda in Iraq from our bases in Okinawa and Diego Garcia, Rep. Jack “Abscam” Murtha has been busy stuffing his face with pork, behaving questionably over appropriations and smearing US Marines. Now that three of the Marines Murtha prejudged to be guilty of cold-blooded murder have been cleared of all charges, Murtha ought to answer for what he has been saying about them.  Today, I called up his office in DC to see if he was planning on issuing any statements. For some reason, his staff is less than forthcoming on that point. [...]</description>

		<description>[...] From Hot Air: Powerful Democrat Rep. John Murtha of Pennsylvania threatened to deny any further spending projects to a Republican who challenged him over an earmark, his antagonist [Rep. Mike Rogers (R-Mich.) has charged — a potential violation of House rules…  Rogers turned the tables later that night by saying he would propose a reprimand of Murtha for violating House rules…  According to the draft resolution, Murtha shouted at Rogers on the House floor Thursday afternoon for offering a motion last week to expose $23 million Murtha requested in an intelligence bill.  The Pennsylvania Democrat requested the money to prevent the administration from shuttering the National Drug Intelligence Center in Johnstown, Pa. — which sits in Murtha’s district. “I hope you don’t have any earmarks in the defense appropriations bills because they are gone and you will not get any earmarks now and forever,” Murtha told Rogers on the House floor, according to the draft transcript supplied to The Politico.  “This is not the way we do things here — and is that supposed to make me afraid of you?” Rogers replied.  “That’s the way I do it,” Murtha said.

		<description>1) The reasons are obvious. Dems are not expected to behave honestly, Repubs are. Particularly by Dems, who have majority control of MSM outlets, and thus set majority cultural expectations. This is why Dems get away with virtually anything and Repubs are always being slammed for everything.

2) &quot;Vote them all out&quot; is useless unless you also kill the &quot;Party Machines&quot; that pick almost all of the candidates you have to choose from. What&#039;s the point of just replacing one DNC or RNC pick with another?</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Brother, you all are desperate to feel good about yourself by bashing the liberals and Dems by trying desperately to dig up dirt on them, while we have so many Republican issues. That is what they call partisan BS.

You call what Murtha did as &quot;trying desperately to dig up dirt on&quot; Dems and libs??  Are you serious?  Are you going to sit here and tell me that there was nothing wrong with what Murtha did (or has done)?  Even the Dems weren&#039;t willing to elect this fraud as their majority leader - they just used him when they needed to, and now, he&#039;s yesterday&#039;s garbage.</description>

		<description>In the next three election cycles we should vote each and every one of these worthless, self-serving people out of office.  At this stage I really could care less if we end up replacing every Dem with another Dem, and every Republican with another Republican, leaving the Dems in the majority.  I&#039;ll take that result, just so we can get a fresh start with some new blood, new ideas and public servants who are interested in serving the public.

We are the people.  We still have our precious power to vote losers out of office.  That&#039;s all we have now, losers, spending their every waking moment trying to get re-elected again.  That&#039;s not waht our founding fathers intended.  Some of these dinosaurs have held office for half a lifetime, and think they can&#039;t be replaced.  Let&#039;s show &#039;em the door.

Power to the people!</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;The overall controversy stems from a disagreement between Murtha and the Bush administration about closing the National Drug Intelligence Center, an intelligence gathering facility supervised by the Drug Enforcement Agency.

President Bush’s budget cut $23 million from the budget to force the agency to close the office, which has received repeated low marks from several federal review boards.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

More differences between Ds and Rs. The WH is making a small effort to defund weak government programs or offices. Murtha is trying to keep it going and waste taxpayer money, only because it is in his district. That&#039;s why this clown keeps getting reelected.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Rogers plans to insert a transcript of their exchange in the Congressional Record to document the potential violation. His resolution will also require a House vote to reprimand Murtha for his comments, according to a draft received by The Politico. Rogers is expected to file it on Monday.

It does not call for an investigation by the Ethics Committee.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

The difference between the Donks and the Republicans is in the last sentance: the Republicans won&#039;t call for an investiation, the Donks would have had already had the investigation organzined and in place by now.</description>

		<description>Murtha is damned lucky he&#039;s not in jail.  He can thank whoever in the MSM leaked the ABSCAM investigation.

Most Democrats are liars, cowards, traitors, and/or lots of other disgusting things..... but it just dawned on me... outside of refusing to defend the country, they are no different than Republicans!

Will someone please start a political party that thinks conservatively, like Republicans, but is aggressive against its opponents, like democrats.  One that has the guts to stand up for its beliefs.  Please!</description>
