What on earth does her seniority have to do with anything?

In fairness, it was used as an excuse for her breaking of Senate etiquette, and when the Dems do such things as flout Senate etiquette, FR tends to erupt in hisses against them.

My beloved just told me she was spouting off. Yesterday she was not showing support for Murtha, that he was entitled to his remarks but supporting them. Guess she changed her tune.

LTNS, nice to see you friend.

Nancy Pelosi is on cspan now singing the praises of Murtha.

Nancy Pelosi certainly can't be considered one to dispute verbally when it comes to a stout American concerning politician.

Just show me one time that she has politically spoken in a way that would be rhetoric of concern for us as a country in total. /sarc

After all, "idiots" deserve a political icon too.

Just saw the replay on H&C. Yea! Rep.Schmidt!!!!!

Wow, those evil Republicans, forcing a vote, requiring the dimwits to go on record rather than lying and bloviating for the media and each other.

God, I just want to smack Colmes; You can play a clip of what Murtha, Kerry etc. said, and he calls it a lie, a distortion of what Murtha, Kerry etc. actually meant....

Hannity did a pretty good job arguing common sense, but was pretty much shouted down. Susan Estrich who I don't always completely despise needed to be slapped tonight for sure.

I've been pretty upset at the gutlets republicans in D.C..... But this evening, I'm cheering them again.

See www.powerlineblog.com for a photo (photoshopped of course) of Democratic leaders holding up elucidation of the Murtha plan: 1) cut 2) run.

I think an appropriate moniker for these Veterans for Peace types would be a Murtha Marine. His name will live in infamy that way.

Guess she changed her tune.

A Democrat without a life long concern, focus, and directive for the betterment of our country to the point of "to me come from me" political rhetoric is a revelation that floors me.

lol....with melancholy.

The filthy bastards [DEMOCRATS!] booed and shouted down a message read from a Marine colonel?????

You must be very, very young to be that shocked by the Dem's political maneuvering of late.

Au contraire...I am old enough to realize that the masses are shocked by the obvious, as long as it's repeated many times until they realize they should be outraged.

Orange? Argh! That's definitely meant to resemble a very bitter lemon, your mileage may vary. ;^)

We killed more than that just in innocent civilians from Wesley Clark's brilliantly run 15,000 foot level bombing campaign.

Don't recall where I read it, but apparently the Democrat-run CIA had figured out a foolproof method for this. They gave communications equipment to the "good guys" and had them call in US bombing runs from--as you said--15000 feet altitude without bothering for visual confirmation.

Unfortunately the bad guys got ahold of one of the comsets and started calling in airstrikes on the refugees.

I still remember Bubba's quote, speaking to the bad guys, "This was your doing, not mine."

Truly a line for the ages.

The MSM continues its outrageously loony-left biased language: characterizing Congressman Murtha's tripe as Murtha's "thoughtful" approach? That's complete bunk, and is so over the top with left-wing bias that I am somewhat surprised that even the "editors" at AP let it go.

The MSM will now procede to give Murtha the same "big kiss" treatment that Jim Jeffords got when he changed his party in 2001.

ok, I'm confused. I guess that was some type of procedural vote. The debate continues Henry Hyde is now speaking.
