DFA says: Show Tim Murphy Some LOVE! (PA18) (9/5/08)
Edited on Tue Sep-09-08 08:31 PM by corporatemedia
DFA members assembled at Tim Murphy's office, held signs for passing traffic, and then worked a sidewalk family event in Mt. Lebanon, PA. They passed out a couple of hundred fliers (text below) and provided quite a surprise for the people working the Tim Murphy booth! The republican cowards actually had the mounted (bicycle) police come and stand behind them while we took up residence at the opposite corner. We had a great response from the crowd as we reminded them that Tim Murphy is, indeed, a true bush/cheney Republican.



If the Republicans are going to keep pretending they're not Republicans and keep running from the failures of Bush and Cheney then we say -

"You can run but you cannot hide!"




Text of flier -

"HECK OF A JOB TIMMY"

With the help of Tim Murphy and the other Republicans, we have set NEW RECORDS.

This year's record deficit is almost $ 500 BILLION dollars. (When I took office there was a budget SURPLUS!)

Our national debt is now almost $ TEN TRILLION dollars. Another new record! When I took office the debt was only $ 5.7 Trillion. We almost doubled it!

We're now paying a HALF TRILLION DOLLARS per year just on the debt INTEREST.

The share of the debt EVERY American owes is $ 32,000.00 - even babies owe that much!

Being a good Bush/Cheney Republican, you believe like we do that we should cut taxes on the wealthiest Americans, keep spending like crazy, and leave the debt to our children.

This is a legacy that you, Tim Murphy, can be proud of. For years to come your constituents and their children, and their children's children, and their children's children's children....will be paying this debt. They'll be remembering us for a long time!

You must have been so proud when Vice President Cheney (while raising money for your re-election), called you "an excellent member of Congress" and told you "the President and I have been grateful to have Tim by our side."

In closing, just let me say on behalf of myself, George W. Bush, and Dick Cheney,

WE LOVE YOU TIM MURPHY

1. Yes, he's just lovely; isn't he?
:sarcasm:

He has been one of Bush's most loyal supporters. He's a joke and an embarrassment.

3. Thanks. I posted the PIC again below because it disappeared from the original post -


BTW, did you see the cover of Paul Begala's new book? Check out the subtitle.



And no, I did not steal the idea from Paul. I initially came up with the idea in July.

And no, I don't think Paul stole the idea from me, either. LOL

The point is that this technique can be used against any repug, from McPalin down to the line.

It is low cost and EFFECTIVE.

4. That is so excellent.
I actually have an old Richard Nixon mask that I got a lot of year out of. Hmmm... Halloween is coming. Very good, very good.

Haven't see this book, either, but I'm trying to get through Thom Hartmann's "Screwed" whilst running for local office myself.

I'm not sure you communicate with Steve O'Donnell, who's running against Tim. Has he seen the pix? I'll try to upload it to my photobucket.
