I just saw a blog that says Representative John Murtha was an unindicted co-conspirator in the Abscam scandal many years ago. I had forgotten that he was involved in that bit of egregious graft. As I recall John McCain was the only Republican involved in that scam. It seems that Murtha has more recently been funneling public money to various friends, including Nancy Pelosi's nephew. I think most everyone is aware that running on a platform that the Republicans are the party of corruption is a loser for the Democrats, given all of the skeletons in their closet. Nancy Pelosi should know that. After all, her Dad ran one of the biggest Democrat political machines.
