Rep. John P. Murtha is continuing his assault on the Bush administration's Iraq war policy, asserting this week that the U.S. Army is "broken, worn out" and "living hand to mouth."

The Pentagon and a senior Republican senator sharply disagreed with his assessment.

Some combination of fool and/or traitor.

(Know I shouldn't, but can't help but wonder if he's getting "something" from the little old broad from California!)

Ollie North (I think it was) was on Tony Snow radio program this morning. He said the reason Murtha is saying all this is because Murtha may be coming under Congressional investigation on some other issue(s).

Sounds like another traitorous former Marine, Ritter-The-Child-Molester, and general Saddam kiss-ass.

Lee Harvey Oswald was a Marine... Bill Clinton was a US president. Neither achievements negate the fact that they were/are human garbage.

That's very interesting....I have posted several times that I thought the DNC and that lunatic from Vermont have pretty much told him that he need to tow the line on this one now or they would opposes his reelection...never thought about a Randy Cunningham moment....that certainly would be interesting if that an investigation is true and that he has some skeletons out there somewhere.

Pelosi has me convinced that the Anti-Christ is a woman.

No, no, no, relax. She's just an annoying cockaroach. I was thinking the other day that I'd like to see her out of that position, but then I realized she is so hopelessly out of her league, so completely ineffectual, we'd never get another weak sister like her. I know her appearance and sound is like fingernails on a blackboard, but know that no one in their right mind would ever take a shrieking, hysterical harpy like that seriously. I doubt people in SF even take her seriously. She's almost as much of a gift as Howard "The Scream" Dean.

Since the DUmocrats are so quick to jump on the "pullout" train...why don't they all step down from their seats and give it a Republican?

They have LOST consistently since 1994, so why not CUT & RUN? Put your money where your mouth is...STEP DOWN NOW, DUMOCRATS!

Anybody that claims to be a PH recipient but won't release the details when asked has two strikes against them in my book. I don't believe a word of it.

So was John Kerry.

Where were the ("you cant' criticize war veterans") hypocrite MSM crowd when they let the comlibs demonetize Oliver North?

Excellent point that bears repeating.

This old dried up Murthaf*kr apparently has forgotten the Militay Code of Conduct click here (especially article six)

I will never forget that I am an American, fighting for freedom, responsible for my actions, and dedicated to the principles which made my country free. I will trust in my God and in the United States of America.

Oh, wait I forgot, the RATs don't turst in God and the U.S.

I think they did this before the handover of power too, trying to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. They may know that this is their last chance. The election may seal the compact we've made with the Iraqi people.

Then again another trope of the left is to demand something we're going to do anyway in hopes of claiming credit for it. It will never work. Then next fall none of this will have happened.

Murtha is just old and senile...and a puppet. He doesn't have enough of his mental capacity left to be a traitor. He lacks the competence for overt sedition.

I think Ritter was getting paid off by Soros, wouldn't be surprised if Mister Murtha was getting a few checks in the mail as well.

Murtha is just trying to deflect the pork scandal from looking at him and his lobbyist brother too closely.

Well, the way I look at it is that Murtha is the gift that keeps on giving...to the GOP, that is.

His idiotic statements just show the vast contrast between the GOP and the Dems.

Stop holding back, wideawake! Hard not to agree with you, though.

Are Navy was fairly broken in 1941 on Dec 8th. This was not a valid reason for a Senator to call for withdrawl of our forces from the pacific theater and to cede Hawaii to the new Enemy. The E word is not used enough in the Iraq/Al Qaeda/Afghanistan contect, IMHO.

I'm always amazed how these mopes fall in love with the camera. Sheehan and now Murtha are milking the love that the dems throw at them through the media. It's like electronic heroin to them.

Don't let Michael Newdow know they have to promise to trust in God to get in the military.
