Thadius said it well enough.

Here in PA he will be missed by many of us. He tried hard to bring money into the area where the miners are losing all that they've ever known, the farms are dying out and the young ones are moving away. My condolences go out to his family.

quote: Veteran congressman's death adds to Barack Obama's woes • Democrats fear Republicans will win seat held since 1974 • President's poll ratings fall further amid health care impasse [image]http://static.guim.co.uk/sys-images/Admin/BkFill/Default_image_group/2010/2/9/1265678281644/John-Murtha-001.jpg[/image] John Murtha. Photograph: Charles Dharapak/AP The Democratic party faces another election test after the death yesterday of John Murtha, a congressman dubbed by his colleagues the "king of pork". Murtha, aged 77, had been in the House of Representatives since being elected to his Pennsylvania district in 1974. The fear in the party is that Republicans will notch up another victory when a special election is held, probably May. The Democrats have been panicking since losing Ted Kennedy's Massachusetts Senate seat to the Republicans last month. Murtha's nickname referred to so-called pork barrel politics – bringing government spending to bear in a representative's own district. His death came on a day that saw Barack Obama's poll ratings fall further. A Marist poll found that only 44% of voters surveyed approved of his job performance, down 2% on December. More alarming for Democratic strategists, 57% of independents disapprove of his performance. More at: http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2010/feb/09/john-murtha-barack-obama-democrats

Do you people have any sense of decency? Are we picketing outside his funeral? Did anyone wish this on him or celebrate it? It has nothing to do with decency. The faux indignation on this board is a riot.

Easy answer, obviously "no" This man lost a lot for this country... and these people in glee over his death are the same people who tout that they are for veterans and the military... that is until they have to spend tax money on better armor or on vet bennies

I haven't seen any "glee" for his death anywhere on this thread, but with you being the eternal victim thats what you're going to read into whatever gets written, regardless. quote: ORIGINAL: juliaoceania Easy answer, obviously "no" This man lost a lot for this country... and these people in glee over his death are the same people who tout that they are for veterans and the military... that is until they have to spend tax money on better armor or on vet bennies

Here is some of the glee I see on here Servantforuse One more seat for the GOP. And then there was the posting of the article about how this was bad for Obama... if you have nothing positive to say about someone that just died... why not keep your fucking pie hole shut? Oh yeah, I know why, you have no couth.... Edited to add.... i saw your original post calling me a victim... which was why my post refers to your ad hominems...

Sanity -> RE: Murtha in Intensive Care (2/8/2010 9:07:30 PM)
Do you even know what the word "glee" means? One more seat for the GOP sounds more like a statement of fact than glee. And its not an ad hominems julia, its also a statement of fact. You're always playing the poor, indefensible, miserable little beat up woman. You're crying about this, and isn't it horrible. Then you're crying about that, and isn't it horrible. From one thread to the next thats your MO, you're a walking tragedy waiting to happen. Once everyone catches on again they'll quit playing your little game again and you'll move on again.
