William Russell has a brilliant new campaign ad out against Rep. John Murtha.

BTW – John Murtha has NEVER recanted nor apologized for his charges against the Haditha Marines which Murtha repeated over and over again as he was bloviating on multiple news programs.

Support Bill Russell by donating to his campaign

(Johnstown, PA) – The fund raising effort of Johnstown resident and Republican nominee for Congress Bill Russell continues to outpace most congressional candidates not only in Pennsylvania but across the country. According to campaign manager Peg Luksik, “William Russell for Congress has raised $2 million to date, with over $200,000 coming in the last 2 weeks from an online drive.”

“The incredible story about Bill’s campaign is that the $15 and $25 contributions are coming in from all over Pennsylvania and every corner of the country,” said Luksik. “This is K-Street versus Main Street. These are patriotic families expressing support for soldiers, sailors and Marines, and people saying they’ve had enough of the old ‘pay-to-play’ culture in the Capitol. That’s what’s fueling this campaign.” Russell, who has only been able to actively campaign since August 1st, said, “There’s something really special going on in this race. We really have a chance against an entrenched incumbent to bring real change and accountability to the district.”

Russell also announced a new television commercial titled “Defend-Our-Heroes” which will debut on TV stations across the district on September 12th. The commercial uses incumbent Congressman John Murtha’s own words when he called Marines in Haditha, Iraq “Cold-Blooded Murderers.” Bill Russell is a retired Lt. Colonel having served in the U.S. Army for 28 years including six tours in hostile fire zones. His deployments include Operation Desert Storm, Kosovo and most recently Operation Iraqi Freedom.

Let’s help to Boot Murtha from office. Murtha must go!
