Sorry, he earned that honor through service in two wars. Once a marine always a marine.

Just my opinion, but I don't believe that is the case. When a marine (if you will) sitting in the cushy US makes statements to the world media which puts his fellow marines actually in the field into even more harm's way - he loses that special aura of "marine".

I fail to see where the words of one aging Democrat congressman is putting marines in more peril than they are already in. Or emboldening an enemy that has already shown that he will stop at nothing to kill as many Americans and Iraqi civilians as he can. How much worse can it get?
