So, per Osama himself, Mousy Murtha bears some responsibility for 9-11-05.

Somalia I could sort of understand just given the human disaster involved but in no way under the command of the UN

And that was when he was much more freshly out of Viet Nam and should have known and understood what murthaing means to the war fighters on the ground. Apparently this coward never learned a thing from Viet Nam.

As the Vice President just pointed out, we've cut and run too many times. And it's emboldened the terrorists.

Somalia, like WTC I bombing, the USS Cole bombing, and the Khobar Towers bombing, was nothing more than a test of Bill Clinton's resolve.

The terrorists know that through a series of bombings, Spain is going to buckle, France is going to buckle, and America will buckle if liberalism is in the drivers seat.

President Bush has made it clear, the WOT will probably be around for generations, but the upshot of that is, Liberalism will probably be destroyed in the process.

Does Murtha have any children?
His obsession with "pulling out" would make him being a father an unlikely event.

I just listened to a female reporter for FNC who returned from Iran. Even the old Ayatollahs in Iran said that secular democracy in Iraq will be good for Iran because it will make them clean up their own act. Whoa!

That was eye opening.

And that the left wants this to FAIL is obvious and odious.

Mr. MURTHA. Mr. Speaker, let me just make a couple of points.
I expressed my opposition to our deployment to Somalia when it began. When I went to the White House, I expressed my concern to President Bush.
I said, `This is a mistake, we shouldn't deploy under these circumstances,

Hmmmmmm...
I remember when Papa Bush invaded Somalia...
It was the doggone weirdest military operation I've ever seen...
Marines and special ops forces hitting the beach dressed up in their night vision gear trying to be stealthy --- and getting chased through the brush by TV camera crews with floodlights and microphones....

Klinton was horrible, but it's hard to believe that our only alternative was going back to the same bunch of idiots who orchestrated THAT whacknut photo-op.

"Our welcome has been worn out," Rep Murtha told NBC's "Today" show in Sept. 1993, after the Mogadishu battle cost the lives of 18 U.S. Rangers.

Didn't that battle take place in October 1993?

I'd have to see that to believe it.
