Shouldn’t speak ill of the dead, but....Murtha should have been thrown off a Navy ship. -

It has already been nicknamed the “Mutha”, and it is a Jonah ship. Bad luck.

They should name it after the marines he threw under the bus for political points.

You have got to be effing kidding me. I'm going to be sick.
Here's the message - slander our troops while they fight America's enemies in foreign lands, while you as a elected official are ass-deep in all kinds of corruption, graft, bribery and other unsavory corporate largess, and you too can have your name on a Navy ship.
It's sickening.

The traitor was giving aid and comfort to the terrorist enemy during the height of the Iraq war and now they want to name a Navy ship after him. There is no shame left at all.
