http://www.boomantribune.com/story/2006/4/7/123236/4696 Via Swing State Project, we learn that Rep. Curt Weldon (PA-7) is a liar and a Moonie. Not only that, he is a supporter of Moammar Al Qadhafi. In short, he's nuts.
The picture below is from a reception that honored the Rev. Sun Myung Moon where Rep. Danny Davis (D-Ill.) "wearing white gloves, place
a jeweled crown on Moon’s head." Curt Weldon tried to distance himself from the reception:
His office originally vehemently denied his attendance, then when he was revealed to be a co-chair organizer of the event<2> claimed that he had intended to attend but could not because of a scheduling conflict; then when a photo surfaced of him speaking at the event while standing next to a lifesize photo of him pinning a Unification Church medal on Moammar Al Qadhafi, stated that he had left immediately after the speech and had no knowledge of what else went on.<3>
From The Hill:
Weldon, whose office initially denied that he attended the event but retracted that claim upon being shown photos, gave a brief speech about his recent trip to Libya. Michael Conallen, a spokesman for Weldon, said he “was not there for the crowning” and “had no idea that the Reverend Moon was going to be at this event. … If we had known that Reverend Moon was going to attend the event, be crowned and make an unbelievably interesting speech, the congressman likely would not have attended.”

As Chris Bowers notes:
Curt Weldon is insane--and I'm not even going into the Able Danger stuff here, or the nepotism surrounding his daughter's consulting firm, or who knows what else. And oh yeah, Curt Weldon also occupies the PA-07, which is the 8th most Democratic district held by a Republican, with a partisan voting index of +3.6 Dem. In fact, this is district is so Democratic, that in 2005, Weldon's opponent, Paul Scholes, scored over 41% of the vote here despite only $25K raised and 90 days to campaign. Sestak, who has more money than Weldon, is going to receive 41%+ by default, and that is assuming that 2006 is just as Republican as 2004. This district is actually more Democratic than either the PA-06 or the PA-08.

we have talked about his Moonie ceremony in D.C. before but I'm interested in his Able Danger stuff.
hope PA gets rid of this religious freak and traitor.
