Murtha Walks Out Of Press Conference
A visibly angry Rep. John Murtha cut his Showcase for Commerce press conference short Friday morning after a reporter�s question about Kuchera Defense Systems of Windber, which is under investigation by the federal government.

Kuchera offices were raided in January, and the company was suspended from receiving new Navy contracts last month. The Kuchera family and related companies are major campaign contributors for Murtha.

�What�s that got to do with me?� Murtha shot back to a reporter�s question about the investigation.

�What do you think? Do you think I oversee these companies? That�s the Defense Department�s job. That�s not my job. You guys write these stories. You don�t have a clue what this is all about.�

Murtha would not answer a question about whether he would distance himself from Kuchera. The congressman cut the session off when asked if he had hired a lawyer.

�What kind of question is that?� Murtha fumed, leaving the Pasquerilla Conference Center, 301 Napoleon St.
Heh... Don't let the door hit 'ya where the good Lord split 'ya...
