"Our troops have become the enemy. We need to change direction in Iraq," said Rep. John Murtha of Pennsylvania, a Democratic hawk whose call a day earlier for pulling out troops sparked a nasty, personal debate over the war.

If Murtha is a "Democratic hawk," there's no significant difference between an American Democrat and a French politician.

Now can I question his patriotism?

>>>"Our troops have become the enemy. We need to change direction in Iraq," said Rep. John Murtha of Pennsylvania, a Democratic hawk<<<

If those are the words of a "Democratic Hawk"....what words does it take to be a Democratic Chicken Hawk?

The loss of nerve, the loss of a will to fight, is a pitiful thing to see happen to a once proud man.

Sounds like it's time for Rep. Murtha to step down.

Either that or he should be tried for treason.

I wonder if the average Iraqi woman, whose status has been lower than the family goat up until now, would agree with him.

Our troops have become the enemy
I think Murtha is being misinterpreted by some here. I also think that Murtha is confused. It appears to me that Islamofanatics are turning on their own kind. Far more Muslims are being murdered than American troops. And his assinine comments about Abu Ghraib being the turning point are utterly ridiculous. I think that he's gone fuzzy-headed.

We need to change direction...

It's not a retreat. It's a change in direction!!!!!!
