Operation Yellow Feather: Day Two

by BostonJoe
Tue Nov 22nd, 2005 at 11:37:41 AM EST

Rep. Jean Schmidt (R-Ohip) is in deep political trouble because she called Rep. John Murtha (D-Pennsylvania) a coward. And the progressive blogosphere has played a part in ensuring that she is held accountable for her remarks.

The Cincinnati Enquirer says she skipped two local appearances Monday. She is a true Chicken Hawk. Talk the talk. But when the going gets tough -- AWOL.

It appears now that there is a split between Schmidt and her source for the cowardly comments, state Rep. Danny Bubp. (R-Ohio). According to the Enquirer, Bubp is in full retreat:

Three days after Rep. Jean Schmidt was booed off the House floor for saying that "cowards cut and run, Marines never do," the Ohioan she quoted disputed the comments.
Danny Bubp, a freshman state representative who is a colonel in the Marine Corps Reserve, told The Enquirer that he never mentioned Rep. John Murtha, D-Pa., by name when talking with Schmidt, and he would never call a fellow Marine a coward.
"The unfortunate thing about all of that is that her choice of words on the floor of the House - I don't know, she's a freshman, she had one minute.
"Unfortunately, they came out wrong," said Bubp, R-West Union.

It is time for accountability from the Chicken Hawks. Let's continue with Operation Yellow Feather today. This time, when you send your feathers and related Chicken Hawk memorabilia, please encourage Schmidt to make a public statement on her rift with Bubp. Did she just make up her slur against Murtha out of whole cloth? Or is Bubp now lying to save his own political skin? Let's have a joint press conference and find out.

Keep up the pressure. Print out one of the Chicken Hawk forms below and use it to send a message to Schmidt and Bubp.

Lost Your Chicken Hawk Feather?
The Chicken Hawk Unit Patch
The Classic Yellow Feather (Make sure to explain)
The Ugly Chicken Hawk (Fill in the voice bubble)

Send your forms to:

Rep. Jean Schmidt
8044 Montgomery Rd. Suite 540
Cincinnati, OH 45236

Rep. Danny Bubp
77 S. High St
11th Floor
Columbus, OH 43215-6111

Better yet Fax them.

Fax Schmidt at (513) 791-1696
Fax Bubp at (614) 644-9494

Make sure you let Bubp know that it is not too late to get some combat experience. The Marines could use some help, given the challenges of recruiting young men to die for a lie.

probably not going to make it (4.00 / 5)

Here's how the rumor goes on the rec list:

Rec List is an unknown combination of Recommends and Comments within an unknown period of time. It is also unclear how much TU status has to do with impact on recommend and comments calculations.

The software (allegedly) eliminates the diarist name from the calculation of number of commenters.

Or so the rumor went when I was there all the time...

No facts here, talking points only, dozens of diaries over there on the topic over the course of a year or so...

UTTER HORSE SHIT (4.00 / 4)

I am thoroughly disgusted. Check out this article from the Cinci Enquirer. Schmidt is claiming that she didn't know Rep. Murtha was a Marine. What a crock!

Re: UTTER HORSE SHIT (4.00 / 3)

So I guess this means if Murtha wasn't a Marine, and was just a Civilian law-maker, it would be okay to call him a coward for making a serious proposal to end the war.

This woman is clueless.
