Angry Murtha Confronts Bloomberg Reporter
Bloomberg.com News is reporting in an article today that Rep. John Murtha had some choice words when asked about his comments recently that his constituents were "racist" for not supporting Obama.
From Bloomberg.com (Full Article)
Asked about his comments yesterday, Murtha said: ``Don't write that story -- you just write what I'm telling you.
``What are the issues? Jobs. The issue is the privatization of Social Security, the issue is health care,'' he said. ``I don't want to be distracted.'' Pennsylvania's unemployment rate was 5.7 percent in September, up from 4.4 percent at the end of 2004.
Don't want to be distracted by the rise in unemployment in your district? Murtha, Nancy Pelosi's biggest ally in Washington, is really showing how out of touch he is with his own district.29 October 2008
John Murtha Highlight Reel
Murtha has embarrassed his constituents and his country. Below is a video of just a few of his recent comments, including his lack of military awareness, calling for the surrender of our troops and calling his own district racist and redneck.
Murtha has spent a lot of time and effort grabbing headlines and garnering favors from the fringe liberals on the west coast, yet has done little for his district. Aside from some pork laden projects which hire dozens, his district continues to be one of the poorest in the country.
Murtha's base town of Johnstown, PA has been a financially distressed city for almost 2o years, and after 17 terms in congress, the trend continues to worsen for the city.

Top 5 Reasons Why McCain will Win Pennsylvania
Pennsylvania has become one of the most hotly contested states in the country this year in both the primaries and Presidential election and the seemingly invincible blue state is in serious jeopardy of swinging McCain this year. Pennsylvania is a critical state holding over 20 electoral votes and a state in which over 90 percent of the counties vote red. Here's the top 5 Reasons why McCain will Win Pennsylvania.
1. Obama and Polls don't Mix:
Obama has a history of underachieving compared to poll numbers for the states in which held
primary elections rather than caucuses. Some people call this the Bradley Effect, while others point to the fact that many of the pollsters (especially those who make up the Real Clear Politics average) tend to lean heavily liberal. Further skewering their polls is the influx of ACORN aided and fraudulent registrations in the state which has made pollsters alter their weightings of respondents choices.
Obama was shelled in the moderate, blue collar state against Clinton in the primary and many view him as out of touch with the state's Democrat population. Further, one can look no further than his 10 percent lead over Clinton in New Hampshire that evaporated in less than 24 hours yielding to a pounding defeat. If Obama is not up by at least 12 percent the day prior to election, Pennsylvania won't be assured. Further, this year, Ralph Nader is actually on the ballot (was not in 2004 when Kerry barely won the state) and is projected to take 1-3 percent from Obama.
2. Obama couldn't Fill the Mellon Arena:
Yesterday, in a rally in Pittsburgh, PA, Obama whose campaign touts the record number of rally attendees drew only 14,000 people at the Mellon Arena. The problem is, the Igloo holds over
17,000+ easily with room to spare for standing room and sells out nightly for Pittsburgh Penguins games. Allegheny County, along with Philadelphia, are traditionally the only two strongholds the Democrats have in the state, and poor showings in attendance don't bode well for the junior Senator.
3. Palin Overfilled the Cambria County War Memorial:
Sarah Palin's rally in Johnstown, PA, (Population under 30,000) a much smaller city, in Cambria county (3 to 1 Democrat registration) had nearly 8,000 people show up to fill a 4,035 seat arena. The heavily controlled Democrat city, under some suspicion, had even tried turning some people away early before an even larger crowd showed up.
4. "Western PA is Racist" and "People from PA are Bitter and Cling to Guns and Religion":
Two quotes that may go down in infamy. First on the hit parade was Gov. Ed Rendell, Democrat from Philadelphia. Rendell, and avid Clinton supporter who some believed may have even been a potential running mate for Clinton had she won, first made comments during the primary that he believed it would be very hard for Obama to win Pennsylvania because many citizens weren't prepared to vote for a black candidate. Further, Rendell who has much clout in the backroom political process of Pennsylvania has been alienated by the Obama camp and hasn't been as enthusiastic about getting out the vote in Pennsylvania for the Democrat ticket as he would of had Clinton won PA. Let's not forget the PUMA issue in PA as well. It's hard to believe that issue would be completely swept off the table either since PA was solid Obama country.
Next, was Obama's quote during a speech in San Francisco that the "People of Pennsylvania are bitter and cling to their guns and religion." Although he has denied he made the statement or
spinned it many times, his voice is has been played over and over again saying it. Pennsylvania does have a strong contingent of Pro-Second Amendment Democrats as well as Christian Democrats, and such comments are still leaving a bad taste in the mouth of many residents.
Most recently was Rep. John Murtha's (D) comments that "There's no question that the people of Western Pennsylvania (his own constituents) are racist." Murtha later restated his argument that he didn't mean they were racist, just that they were "backwards, ignorant and rednecks." Murtha, a career politician, is embroiled in a race against retired Army Lieutenant Colonel and veteran William Russell. Russell who was thought to be lucky when he entered to race to gather 20 percent of the votes is now up in some polls by as much as 10-15 percent over Murtha. Adding fuel to the fire is Murtha's attacks on the US Military calling for the heads of Marines accused and acquitted of war crimes, and yet still refuses to apologize. His battle in key Western PA counties will lead many Democrats to not vote straight party line which may have many voters taking a more scrupulous look at each candidate in each election, leading to a loss of an additional 1 to 2 percent for Obama.
5. Pennsylvania's Military Presence:
On the heels of Obama's statements that he wants to cut the defense budget by over 25 percent during a time of war, Pennsylvania's heavy military presence may play a deciding factor. The
state has one of the largest Air and Army Guard divisions in the country, with over 20,000 in its ranks combined. While the state is heavily registered Democrat, it is very strong on national defense issues and Obama's threats to gut the DOD will hit close to home with many family's who have members of the military serving in harms way. Despite Obama's promises to ensure defeat out of the sure hands of victory in Iraq, his ability to complete a full retreat is planless and unexecutable. Any cuts in funding to the military will occur with service members still in harms way, and that is dangerous. (Photo Courtesy of Topcover)

Napalm in the Morning: "Is this some sort of joke?"
Well, it sure has been a while since our last episode of Napalm in the Morning. I don't want to say I hit a rut, but I just didn't feel like composing much.
- OBAMA CHANNEL 74: Well folks, the time is near and I half to say I will be looking
forward to Nov. 5th. That is unless if we still recieve the OBAMA channel on Dish Network. It really makes you wonder who is funding Obama, especially in light of all of the fraudulent donations he has been receiving. It couldn't possibly be middle eastern and other foriegn money could it? Don't tell me all the poor folks that he is fighting for that don't have any shoes or food for their children are able to pony up millions of millions of dollars each month for his campaign.
- POLLS! I'm starting to have my suspicions that ACORN has a hand in the daily polls across
the country too. Especially since the Investors Business Daily Poll (the most accurate poll in the 2004 election) has the race withing 3% (2.8% to be exact) of each other and closing rapidly.
- POLLS (Part 2). Also interesting to note is that the overwhelming majority of Americans who do not "fly the flag" support Obama for President 66-27%. Kind of solidifies my point that the core of Obama's supporters truly hate everything America stands for. (See also Obama Campaign Threw Away American Flags after Speech.)
- WESTERN PA IS RACIST...No, just Redneck and Ignorant: John Murtha has said enough
and it looks like LTC William Russell (Ret) has a serious shot of winning. Michelle Malkin's site has him even in the lead. I'm almost afraid of what Murtha will say next. Possible he will put a bill before congress to declare a national Benedict Arnold Day.
- REDISTRIBUTION OF THE WEALTH = Take money from the people who work to give to the people who don't. I'm all for a hand up, but not a hand out. This is talk I would be expecting to hear coming from Moscow, not Miami. People wonder why the market is down? It's NOT because of the "Failed Policies of GW Bush." It's because any investor with half a brain in his head is pulling his or her money out of the market until the election is over in fear of an Obama victory and the subsequent tax hikes to follow. You people wonder why your IRA and retirements are down and why your boss is closing up shop? OBAMA. Plain and simple.

John Murtha: "Western PA is Racist."
Article from the PPG. Can someone please get rid of Murtha. So far he's called for the deaths of US Marines who were innocent, taken money illegally for favors and now is calling his own constituents racist because they don't support Barrack Obama's socialist plans.
Murtha expects Obama to win Pa.
Says it has taken time for voters to embrace black candidate
Wednesday, October 15, 2008
U.S. Rep. John Murtha said today he expects Democratic nominee Barack Obama to carry Pennsylvania in next month's presidential election.
Mr. Murtha, a 17-term Democrat from Johnstown, told the Post-Gazette's editorial writers he sees momentum building in Mr. Obama's campaign across the state for the general election after he lost his party's April primary to Hillary Clinton. He thinks Republican John McCain's efforts have been stymied by the country's economic crisis.
"I think Obama is going to win, but I don't think it's going to be a runaway," he said. "I think he wins Pennsylvania."
Mr. Murtha said it has taken time for the state's voters embrace a black presidential candidate.
"There's no question Western Pennsylvania is a racist area," said Mr. Murtha, whose district stretches from Johnstown to Washington County. "The older population is more hesitant."
Mr. Murtha said groups he deals with regularly, such as military veterans and senior citizens, have come around to supporting Mr. Obama in the past three months. He credited Mr. Obama with being the most organized candidate he has ever seen.
More details in tomorrow's Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
