Unparalleled Perfidy (Murtha nailed)
INVESTOR'S BUSINESS DAILY ^ | February 16, 2007 | Editorial

Posted on 02/16/2007 5:38:32 PM PST by jazusamo

War On Terror: The party of John Murtha shamelessly seeks to defund and defeat U.S. troops on the battlefield and snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. The Congress the terrorists wanted is doing their bidding.

There's a reason the founders of this country designated a single commander in chief and placed the responsibility to wage war in the hands of the president. We saw recently the futility of having 100 commanders in chief when the Senate tried to pass a resolution of disapproval of the war in Iraq and couldn't agree on the terms of our surrender.

Now it's the House of Representatives' turn, led by Rep. John Murtha, who believes the fine young men and women we send to defeat terror and our sworn enemies are cold-blooded killers. While the House works on its own nonbinding resolution, Murtha has bigger plans and considers such a resolution only a prelude to the real battle in March over appropriations for the war.

As chairman of the House panel that oversees military spending, Murtha plans to advance legislation next month attaching strings to the additional war funds Bush requested on Feb. 5.

We'd have to go back to Benedict Arnold to find Americans as eager as Murtha & Co. to see an American defeat on the battlefield.

IBD has murtha's number.

We have just discovered that the Democrats are to be distrusted in all matters. If you've got one running a cash register for you, fire him or her immediately. Don't let any of them have access to anything of value.

Murtha's behavior is beneath contempt.

I hope that anyone who thought letting the Democrats come to power was a wise idea, one that had no price tag associated, has now realized that it was a disaster of the first water.

I second your idea of the people supporting the military by providing the funds they need. We can send $$$$ to the DOD or whoever is in chage of the money for the military.

That sure shoots down the Dems contention that the election was a mandate to end the war.

murtha is lower than the dirt on the ground
murtha and the demorats with their loons in
the drive-by media, call for the defeat of America
each and every day. I hope and pray that if America
is defeated, the enablers murtha and the demorats
and their loons in the drive-by media will be
some of the first to feel the enemy's swords for their treason.
Even then though, these people are so stupid, and will
want to blame America first, so people like murtha and
his loons will then blame,
the Military and the Right Wingers.

America will not lose but if it did, murtha and his ilk would be the first ones in line to collaborate.

I'd love to attach a bunch of strings to murtha's neck, better known as a rope.

Thanks, gives rise to another thought,



Passing this non-binding clarifies that
Democrats can not get us out of Iraq.
