I respected Murtha for his service in the USMC but after he got out he turned into a piece of shit and he has not changed a lil bit

Well he's a prick now and likely he was a prick while being a Marine. He ranks right up there with Kerry in my eyes.

One last dig at Murtha


Marine vet at Russell rally: Murtha a 'fat little bastard'

NEW STANTON -- Republican congressional candidate Bill Russell's rally on Sunday featured several Iraq war veterans vehemently criticizing U.S. Rep. John Murtha (D-Johnstown), who they say betrayed them when he said troops in Iraq killed innocent civilians in Haditha "in cold blood."

Those remarks sparked Russell to run against Murtha and have been a theme of his campaign ever since.

During the rally, Shawn Bryan, a former sergeant in the U.S. Marine Corps., said Murtha visited his unit in Iraq in 2005. At the time, Murtha told the troops "what a great job we did," Bryan said, only to see him tell his district back home he no longer supported the effort.

Bryan said he didn't put his life on the line for his country "just so some fat little bastard can come back and run his mouth."

It was the second time during his speech that Bryan, who flew in from Albuquerque, New Mexico, had called Murtha a "fat little bastard" during his speech. His remarks were not publicly repudiated at the rally.

In an interview after the rally, Russell told PolitickerPA.com Bryan's comments didn't reflect his own feelings, but he did the defend the fellow veteran.

The remarks are reflective of the anger many marines, who have lost dozens of fellow soldiers during combat, feel toward Murtha, he said.

"Am I going to throw him under the bus for it?" Russell asked. "No. I understand -- he's going to say what he believes."

Murtha, who himself served 37 years in the Marine Corps and won a Bronze Star and two Purple Hearts, said about the 2005 shootings of Iraq civilians in Haditha: "Our troops overreacted because of the pressure on them, and they killed innocent civilians in cold blood."

Charges have been dropped against all but one of the Marines involved in the Haditha killings.
Facts are facts. For all of those Murtha backers out there pay attention to the following:

1)John Kerry was not swift boated unless by swift boating you mean that people tell the truth that you do not want to hear and it costs you the election.

2)"You keep using that word I do not think it means what you think it means"-Inigo Montoya Princess Bride

3)Jabba Murtha was a two-faced swine when he tells the Marines to their faces how proud he is and then calls them murderers at home. What kind of precedence does that set for the morale of those brave enough to do the job that no one else will do.

4)He called his constituents racists and rednecks. I for one am sick and tired of being called racist if I do any of the following: 1)do not support BO, 2)call out BO for Ayers, Wright, Pfleger, Rezco, etc..., or 3)use his middle name.


Im not prepared to hand over the 12th congressional to a bunch of dumb speds like you all and your brainwashed trickle down economic policies. Haha... see you tomorrow at the polls tomorrow ladies. Oh yeah, and tell russell, who held his final rally in New Stanton... he's in the wrong district there... anyone who doesnt know that isnt qualified to represent our district.

Sully1 I was in Chicago on super tuesday so I did not know how the assclown did untill I read what you posted, the way I look at this election the people spoke and no matter what happens it is our fault and we will reep what we sow. Just look foward to 2012 and hope we can fix the republican party to what we once were. I don't think we had the guts to win.

I was just reading that there was a lot of back stabbing in the McCain campaign after Palin joined very late makes you wonder how loyal J McCain's workers were.I hope Oboma brings halfway good people with him.I just wonder what price we will pay for all of the money available to Oboma.
