What's being voted on now is a procedural motion to bring the vote to the floor on the same day it was introduced. This is not the "big one". They're deciding if it will come to a vote.

I sure hope they do nail those whiners. No money from the RNC when they run again. Cowards.

This is like a fight in a hockey game. It can get our guys fired up and back in it. Could the Senate Pubbies propose a similar resolution?

Traitorous troglodytes must be slain if they venture out from their caves and enter the battle at the side of the enemy.

Ease up on the video gaming.

Listen to all these callers: "I'm a Republican but I'm voting with the Democrats on this."

Right.

Check out this article, it is representative of how every reporter has been playing Murtha up as the greatest military mind and war hero in American history:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/1524732/posts?page=101,35

Excerpts:

House Republicans sought a showdown Friday with Democrats on a proposal by one of their most senior members....

Murtha, a well-respected Vietnam veteran who voted for the Iraq war....

Republicans were seeking to force Democrats to stand with the respected 30-year congressman....

Murtha, a longtime hawk on foreign and military affairs issues....

A day after his comments, a U.S. field commander in Iraq countered the position of the usually pro-military congressman....

As a Vietnam veteran and top Democrat on the House Appropriations defense subcommittee with close ties to many military officers, Murtha carries more credibility with his colleagues on the issue than a number of other Democrats who have opposed the war from the start....

With a Bronze Star and two Purple Hearts, Murtha retired from the Marine Corps reserves as a colonel in 1990 after 37 years as a Marine, only a few years longer than he's been in Congress. Elected in 1974, Murtha has become known as an authority on national security whose advice was sought out by Republican and Democratic administrations alike.

And of course:

Also a Vietnam veteran, Kerry...
