It must be done....

Yep. There are rules here

Sorry...don't agree with Ann on this one. Murtha was voicing his opinion, albeit horrible one. By saying he's a war hero, you're just giving him the respect that he has the right to talk about war because he's been there...done that.

On the other hand, Cunningham's war service has nothing to do with the pickle he's in now. By that measure, should we be more lenient with lawbreakers if they've had a distinguished military record? If someone raped your daughter, would you care that he shot down 5 MIGs during the Vietnam War?

Murtha and Cunningham...apples and oranges...and the orange is going to jail.
