What was it about "Semper Fi" that Murtha didn't understand?

Doing today to our young warriors in harm's way, what was done to the warriors of his/our era -- is unforgivable...

Semper Fi

Thanks for the ping. I guess being a politician (especially a RAT) trumps being a Marine for some people. This guy is just another sellout.

Murtha = EX-Marine.

The term is rare. But there it is.

Semper Fi

Thanks for the ping. I wish there was some way his retirement could be terminated. This Jerkoff Sh!tbird should spend about 24 months in an old (circa 1950's) USMC Brig.
That might straighten his dumbass out.

I think Murtha is being faithful because he believes that the final product of this war is not worth our Marines losing their lives for ....

The Final Product:
If the final product is another Oil Rich, Sharia Law, infidel(thats US) hating arab country, then he may be right. And from what can be seen .... the Constitution of Iraq now states NO LAW SHALL CONTRADICT ISLAM, the Iraqi Prime Minister states he wants to establish Sharia Law, and is laying wreathes at Iran's Ayatollah's grave, and even the Iraqi President says he will oppose any attack against Syria, by the USA, launched from Iraq.

and he may also notice how similar it seems to Vietnam.

Casualties higher ( 4 of 6 months with 80 Coalition KIA for the first time)
Sanctuaries for the enemy then and now = Cambodia/Laos then, Syria/Iran now.

Or again he may be another Veteran who sold his soul to the devil... via the democratic party.

He was nearly in tears because he knew he was doing wrong. He knows appeasement and pulling out now is death to the military. A "date certain" with death. The terrorists all over the world would rejoice and ululate themselves into a frenzy. Attacks on Americans and American interests would increase in number and intensity. "The Great Satan can be defeated!" they would scream as they cut off the heads of innocents. The open borders of the southwest would be look like a hurricane evac route, to terrorists intent on doing their nefarious acts. He either believes his party's own propaganda or he's an old fool who's been in there too long........

I thought John Glen was a sell-out too.
