I've had some great discussions on FR about this.
Love these pithy issues. Let me suggest a read of Federalist 39 and I'll leave it at that.
I don't have any trouble at all calling Dean a traitor, but I do find it difficult to call Murtha a traitor. Murtha did acknowledge that we have done good things over in Iraq. Dean would never do that. Dean and Ramsey Clark I think are of a kind. It's late, I'm retiring :(
Thanx

>>>The chairman of the Defense Appropriations subcommittee at the time, Rep. John Murtha (D-Pa.), had been caught in the FBI's ABSCAM sting operation in which an agent disguised as a Saudi sheik offered members of Congress large cash bribes.<<<<
I do believe Murtha was instrumental in facilitating what has led us up to the events of today.
