What was that kabuki dance Tweety did with that Irey woman tonight?
Murtha's opponent who is running on anti-gay, flag waving only. Anyone know how Murtha is doing with this Barbie doll as an opponent? A debate with her will be like swatting a gnat.

2. She's a jackass
The Freepers just love her and think she's going to win, which is absurd since Murtha has won this district repeatedly

6. As an added bonus: Her husband has shady Chalabi connections to Iraq
Edited on Thu Aug-17-06 07:11 PM by BurgherHoldtheLies
Isn't that adorable :puke:

Her husband, Robert, a construction executive, and his connection to a sensational contracting scandal in Iraq, as reported in an excellent article on this race by Joe Conason in Salon.

Last January, the Associated Press published a fascinating and thorough feature story about a $300 million deal awarded by the Iraqi Defense Ministry to a consortium that included (Irey’s husband, Robert) and his brother William Irey. The Irey brothers had joined up with a shadowy arms dealer named Dale Stoffel, whose Iraqi patron was none other than Ahmed Chalabi -- the former exile leader and alleged conman who provided deceptive intelligence about Saddam Hussein's "weapons of mass destruction," and who has remained a favorite of Pentagon neoconservatives despite his checkered history. With Chalabi's support, Stoffel and the Ireys won a bid to rebuild military equipment for the Iraqi armed forces and market military scrap metal from all over the war-ravaged country. Clever as Stoffel's scheme may have been, it ended very badly. He soon became embroiled in bitter financial disputes with the Iraqi Defense Ministry, which he accused of corruption. In December 2004, not long after Stoffel started making official complaints to Washington, unknown assailants murdered him and an American associate in a mysterious drive-by shooting near Baghdad. Explaining her husband's involvement in this bloody mess could prove difficult for Irey. According to the AP, the huge deal won by her husband's consortium was obtained by hiring the same "powerful Washington lobbyists" who had represented Chalabi in his quest for American money and support.

7. I was afraid Tweety was going to give her a pass.
But after her idiotic statement about how the Iraqi's love us so (That talking point is so 2004), he nailed her with just how much carnage we've caused those people since we arrived.

8. SHE BROUGHT UP HOW WE HAVE MADE IT BETTER FOR CHILDREN
I WROTE HER on her camp email and said bull!

i said 3400+ dead last month alone and close to 250,000 dead iraqi's would disagree with her..

and that prior to * starting his illegal murdering war of aggression more than 50% of Iraqi's were under the age of 15..

so i told her she is full of shit..and further more that i was a flight crew of one of the airlines involved in 9/11 and Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11..that she is full of shit!

here is her email if you want to let her have a piece of your mind!
