Mutha's record is clear for any who care enough to learn real-world events. What you print here regarding the future sadly rings true. I'll leave "blame" and "compaison and contrast" to those who feel the need. This kind of thing just serves as more clarity (and reason) for me to justify living well outside the USA! American voters have spoken and it's time they reap what they've sown.

Murtha comes close to making me ashamed to admit I was a Marine.

Michelle, you should be required reading for anyone who loves our country......Murtha is a flaming idiot, and a greedy disgrace to his district.........you are so right, they put him there, they deserve him.........but we don't!!!

Ma'am;...Forget about the increased risk Murtha would subject his district to by volunteering it as a highly visible terror target??? No problem...I thought I was going to have to spend the rest of my life try to remember that fact for ten whole minutes... Who gives a crap what danger he subjects his district to??? A land fill is probably a greater danger, and a bigger draw to terrorism... You know, lady; all you need is a big red squeaky nose, and big shoes and you could work for the circus as a clown...And they could pay you peanuts, just like you actually earn writing... Thanks...Sweeney

Thank you for your young, savvy voice amist a field of sheep. Thank you for bringing Robert Reich's senate disclosure before the public. He is now trying to "spin" what he really said, when it was very clear at the time.
I suggest that, Mr. Reich give his appointment to some disadvantaged minority in the interest of fairness, as Mr. Reich said, there are so many with needs.
In fact, let us see a ground swell of progressive liberals start handing out their money and jobs to the "underprivledged", not other people's money.
Who is John Galt.
