Patriot turned Democrat says it all, doesn't it?
Agree or disagree with what Rep Murtha has said, I defend his right to say it. Isn't it what American service men and woman are fighting for?
Stupid questions such as the title of this thread don't deserve an answer.
Traitor yes.
Reminds me of the Dave chapelle skit on women dressed like ho's.
Women dressed like ho's say angrily to men who make assumptions about them, "Just because I dress this way does not make me a whore"
D.C.: "ok, imagine I wear a cop's uniform and someone comes running up screamin 'officer, thank god, help us! Wait Wait, just because I dress this way, does not make me a policeman".
D.C: "women, just because you dress that way does not make you a whore, but you are wearing a whores uniform"
Murtha may not be a coward, but he sure is advocating a defeatist cowardly policy.
I have a feeling we are going to hear a lot more from Jean Schmidt.
30 years ago he would have been a traitor but today that word means little. Coward doesn't even apply. He's just a lib. See tagline.
Murtha is a political animal, not in charge of his own destiny, but one who has been coopted by the democrat leadership to say and do things which he probably does not have a desire to say. I think he got together with Reid et.al and they devised a 'make-believe' strategy for devicive, rank, political motives which negatively impact our finest American citizens, the military, and undermines the interest of the USA. In otherwords, he is a g****mn democrat.
I regard him as a tool. He's being used by the leftist establishment.

"Ain't no fool like an old fool."
No. He's just a sentimental old fool.
I heard an ABC (a.k.a., A BS) radio "news" segment that replayed Rep. Schmidt passing along the message but failed to include the part where she made it clear that the message was from the named active duty Marine colonel -- thus the words became the words of Representative Schmidt and added to the left's "Bush [Republican] derangement syndrome." Nice going, ABS employees!
Murtha's right. We're in the way. They don't want us there. We should leave at the earliest possible date.
Mr.Murtha is not a coward.
What the House Republicans did on Friday night was brilliant. By forcing a vote they forced everybody to put their vote where their mouth is.
It was the epitome of hypocrisy when Jack Murtha, who on Friday morning demanded the immediate withdrawal of our troops from Iraq but yet didn't have the balls to vote that way Friday night. On second thought, maybe he is a coward.
Just like John Kerry, Murtha and the anti-war Democrat Party are using individual honorable military service and combat medals merely as deceptive props to hide their real agendas. They are not honoring them, but degrading them.
It would be safer to to inhabit a foxhole with a constantly blowing foghorn and flashing lights than any of these scoundrels. Not a one of them is worth the powder to blow them to the hell they richly deserve.
Fools and knaves, all of them!
How dare you question my patriotism?", well, yes, I am questioning your patriotism -- because you're failing to meet the challenge of the times.
His previous service to our country is disgraced by his present service to his party. The DNC membership card must be imbued with mind-sapping properties that even a Marine cannot withstand.
Treason and courage are not mutually exclusive.
Talk like this diminishes our side. He is not necessarily a coward nor a traitor. He is mistaken, and making a poor judgment. Elevating the rhetoric beyond that is so...democratic. :-)
No, he is neither, he is simply wrong.
Now, I will call him a poor decision maker whose been in the beltway too long.
