Kos slams Murtha

and reminds people of this incident:
After Rep. Mike Rogers (R-MI) offered a procedural motion on May 10, 2007, that would have stripped a $23 million earmark from the intelligence authorization bill designated for the National Drug Intelligence Center (“NDIC”) and have the Department of Justice’s Inspector General audit the effectiveness of the center, located in Rep. Murtha’s district, Rep. Murtha approached Rep. Rogers on the House floor and stated, “I hope you don’t have any earmarks in the defense appropriations bills because they are gone, and you will not get any earmarks now and forever.”  Rep. Rogers replied, “This is not the way we do things here,” and, “is that supposed to make me afraid of you?”  Rep. Murtha retorted, “That’s the way I do it.”

Good for him.
The left blogosphere doesn't seem intent to defend the Democratic scumbags, the way their counterparts from the right did with DeLay.
