Oh, spare me. Please:
There’s nothing more traditional in American politics than the wholesome family portrait: a beaming candidate, beaming spouse, reluctantly beaming teenagers.

Murtha has won.
Thank you, Bill Russell, for your patriotism and dedication and fearlessness. You gave the smear merchant the scare of his life. You inspired people across the country. You are not just a conservative hero. You are an American hero.

I said it before. I’ll say it again. John Murtha is running scared. Truly a sign of desperation:
U.S. Rep John Murtha will be joined by former President BIll Clinton at the University of Pittsburgh in Johnstown Monday for a “Get out the Vote” rally.
Doors will be open to the public at 2:30 p.m. at the [...]

Are you aware that deportable aliens can circumvent immigration laws with the help of your member of Congress? Are you aware that more than 50 bills have been introduced in Congress this year that would grant special, private relief to individual immigrants fighting deportation? It’s instant amnesty through special legislation. And it’s been happening for [...]
