Thanks again so called conservative politicians
Attention John Murtha:
You might want to pull out your pocket edition of the US Constitution.
Section 2
Clause 1:
The President SHALL BE Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, and of the Militia of the several States, when called into the actual Service of the United States; he may require the Opinion, in writing, of the principal Officer in each of the executive Departments, upon any Subject relating to the Duties of their respective Offices, and he shall have Power to grant Reprieves and Pardons for Offences against the United States, except in Cases of Impeachment.
Clause 2:
HE SHALL HAVE Power, by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, to make Treaties, provided two thirds of the Senators present concur; and HE SHALL NOMINATE, and by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, shall appoint Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, Judges of the supreme Court, and all other Officers of the United States, whose Appointments are not herein otherwise provided for, and which shall be established by Law: but the Congress may by Law vest the Appointment of such inferior Officers, as they think proper, in the President alone, in the Courts of Law, or in the Heads of Departments.
Clause 3:
The President shall have Power to fill up all Vacancies that may happen during the Recess of the Senate, by granting Commissions which shall expire at the End of their next Session.

Seems, Mr. Murtha, that you're the one with no power in regards to the conduct of the war or of the nation's foreign policy. Go pound sand. OBTW, you and your power mad party might want to pay attention to Clause 3. Hold up the President's nominees and you'd better not take a recess. ^_^
Murtha is not in my district in PA- I wish he was. I can't believe his ranting and BS that he spews all over the airwaves. Where are the patriots in this country? We have nothing more than "girlie men". I'm so tired of sheep re-electing A($&$%#) like him that i wonder what IS to happen with this REPUBLIC! We got what we deserve. When the crap (economically) hits the fan, then the fun starts. Then we can blame the democrats- Watch out '08.
"In war, there is no substitute for victory." - General Douglas MacArthur.
You mean Mama Pelosi and Murtha are going to duke it out? Cool. I want ring side.
The hero of the Code Pink moonbats.
Yeah, the stupid voters of America sure did this country a favor keeping this treasonous pig in office. Washington is truly a total mess now, and now further from NOT being a government for and by the people....
You get what you vote for, or don't vote for, whichever applies. People get the government they deserve...
there is a fallback position.
Iraq should be broken up,
just doing that would be a big improvement
from the Saddam era
Yeah way to go Paleo-con ass munchies and other conservative morons
No, the sane people are not in charge. And they will not be in charge again. This downward slide of our country will not be turned around again. If there are some Republicans out there who think this can all be fixed in 2008, they are extremely delusional. It is too late now. The day of opportunity was last Tuesday.
Plan? We don't need no stinking plan!
One more time huh? Get off it. We voted.
Pardon, Mr Murtha? may not be a strategy. It is a Preferred outcome, Sir.
It seems to me we have a Congress full of useless idiots.
Also in the constitution;
"the right of the people to keep and bear arms, SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED.
Has that stopped them.
I predict they will try to find a way to take over the president's duties.
These people aren't ready for township committee members.
W spelled it once.
This man is mentally ill - and people actually voted for this. What a district that must be up there.
I guess Murtha will be pushing for their redeployment to Okinawa.
