Murtha Threatens to Cut Pentagon Funds Over Pelosi’s Jet
Rep. John Murtha (Moonbat-Pa.) has issued a threat to cut Pentagon funding, over Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s outrageous demand for a military C-32 jet.
Rep. John Murtha, D-Pa., the Pelosi ally who chairs the House military appropriations subcommittee, said he has spoken to Pentagon officials about the need to provide Pelosi with a bigger plane that can fly passengers coast to coast in comfort.
But he denied pressuring the Pentagon. “I don’t need to pressure them. I just tell them what they need to do,” Murtha said. …
Murtha said he is convinced the Pentagon has been leaking information about the possibility that Pelosi would use large military planes to make her look bad. But he said, ”They’re making a mistake when they leak it because she decides on allocations for them,” referring to the Pentagon budget.
