Altmire and Critz need a good spanking.

They are in the group of 17 Democrats who voted to hold Holder in contempt of Congress. It is time for them to leave.

I am so sorry to say that I worked for Altmire the first time he ran against Hart. I wanted her out and was willing to do what it took to help him even though he was not in my district. At least I can say that I did nothing to help him the second time around after seeing him in action. He humiliated me.

Informed Democrats, Voting Democrats, Lifelong Democrats.

I get it that this district is relatively conservative, but there are still liberals and many, many moderates.

Jack Murtha would not approve of Mr. Critz's Republican leanings. Murtha was moderate, but he knew when to display some backbone. He was one of the first to speak out about the Iraq war.

This was an obvious Rep game to embarrass this administration.....and give them talking points about all the corruption under Obama. And to have Dems go along with this charade infuriates me. Don't they see that they are playing into the Repugs' hands? You are right, I will let him know how I feel about this.
